Subject: A different "personality type" angle


In the past, we've talked about learning styles, personality types, and
other peripheral - but possibly important - audience traits, when it
comes to imparting info. Communicating with varying segments of our
audience.

A recent insight - not proven - is that there might be a personality or
approach-to-the-world link between people who profess/experience brand
loyalty, and people who have the fan(atic) gene.

Both my wife and I are not sports fans, though we observe that many
people around us are.

Similarly, I observed that neither of us exhibits brand loyalty. This
prompted me to casually and slyly poll my co-workers and other
acquaintances. So far, the correlation seems to be holding, but that
might be just sample bias and wish-fulfillment on my part. Still, it
_seems_ as if there's something there.

So, it occurred to me to wonder if:

a) the observation is valid (need a bigger sample)

b) there's any tie-in with how people take concepts and information and
instructions and warnings on-board . . . or fail to do . . .

Any takers?

(Or is that thing about the brownies gonna cost me...? ;-> )
