As in life, men and women disagreed more than they agreed as to which brands have earned their most affection. Both men and women rated Southwest Airlines, Google and Dove among their top ten brands. Beyond these, though, women have real heart for Hallmark, Kohl's, Lexus, Target, Neutrogena and Crest. Men, on the other hand, were most taken with Cadillac, BMW, Apple, Sharp, and GE.

The Second Annual "Most Desired Brands in the U.S." just released by leading global strategic neuroinsight firm Buyology Inc and uSamp, a leader in providing targeted audiences and SaaS technologies for business intelligence. This list is the only report to uantitatively type and measure consumer relationships with brands using rigorous quantitative tools that measure people's deepest, non-conscious connections to brands. The full report can be found at www.buyologyinc.com.
The Most Desired Brands in the U.S. Report used Buyology's proprietary technology to test more than 220 brands across ten diverse industries, among a sample of 4,000 people representative of the US population. The test was conducted immediately following the Super Bowl on February 6-10, 2012.
"This year's brand ranking demonstrates that it's essential for companies to invest in creating deeper differentiated relationships with their consumers. These relationships provide the context that either amplifies or diminishes everything the brand does to connect with its customers," said Gary Singer, Founding Partner and CEO, Buyology Inc. "Buyology's neuro-insight tools provide rigorous analytic measurement of these deeper, previously unmeasured, connections to provide unique insight to brands and a roadmap for how to trengthen their relationships."
Added Matt Dusig, Co-Founder & CEO, uSamp, "uSamp is thrilled to power Buyology's 2012 report on The Most Desired Brands in America. As two of Forbes' Most Promising Companies in 2011, uSamp and Buyology both thrive on disruptive innovation and believe in the power of consumer insights. This synergy, along with our ability to target an audience of over 6.5 million, will prove valuable to Fortune 500 brands across the nation."
