Report Highlights

Coolness applies to many more consumers than just 'youths'. Coolness is not just about fads, and marketers are potentially missing out on offering 'cool' to the vast number of older, often more affluent consumers.

The importance of coolness varies by product category, but marketers must not become 'cool obsessed'. While over a quarter of Americans and Europeans report using consumer packaged goods in order to achieve 'cool', cool alone cannot sustain a brand. Successful incorporation of cool with other product attributes is key.

While cool is often associated with exclusivity, it is possible to offer 'mainstream' cool. Brands seeking to establish and maintain such a position will need clearly segmented brand strategies. This report shows how it can be achieved.
