How the psychology of friendship can apply to building a good brand

Hello, class. Tonight's assignment:


  1. Read this post over at the Happiness Project about Eight psychological terms to help you strengthen your friendships.

    AN excerpt:
    Triadic closure. In a phenomenon called "triadic closure," people tend to befriend the friends of their friends – and this is very satisfying. Friendships thrive on inter-connection, and it's both energizing and comforting to feel that you're building not just friendships, but a social network. I now make much more of an effort to help my friends become friends with each other, and to befriend friends' friends.

  2. Think about how these principles apply to building a good brand relationship with your audience. You do want your brand to be a friend to your audience, don't you?

  3. Discuss.
