NATURE OF PERSONALITY
Personality reflects individual differences Each individual has a special set of inner characteristics, and is thus unique by himself. Some individual are highly sociable whereas some are low on sociability.

Personality is a useful concept because it enables us to categorize consumers into different groups on the basis of one or even several traits.

Personality is consistent and enduring Marketers cannot change consumers personalities to conform to their products. However, if they know which personality characteristics influence specific consumer responses, they can attempt to appeal to the relevant traits inherent in their target group of consumers.

An individual's personality tends to be both consistent and enduring.

Personality is only one of a combination of factors that influence how a consumer behaves.

Personality can change Under certain circumstances personalities change. An individual's personality may be altered by major life events, such as the birth of a child, the death of a loved one, a divorce, or a significant career promotion. There are changes in personality as a man matures slowly. We find many aggressive persons mellow down as they advance in years.

BRAND PERSONALITY
Brand personality is as if 'making the brand come alive'.
The attribution of human personality traits (seriousness, warmth, imagination, etc.) to a brand as a way to achieve differentiation. Usually done through long-term above-the-line advertising and appropriate packaging and graphics.

 These traits inform brand behavior through both prepared communication / packaging, etc. and through the people who represent the brand - its employees. The way in which it speaks of its products or services shows what kind of person it would be if it were human. A brand without a personality has trouble gaining awareness and developing a relationship with customer.
