We set out to measure 25 brands in this growing hospitality category. However, in the minds of ultra-wealthy consumers, the Destination Club industry is still in its early stages of development. This is indicated by the dramatically low consumers awareness, rendering a large number of brands unable to be rated for lack of a reliable statistical sample. The category is populated with new brands with highly generic brand names. Many names are quite similar, generating a significant lack of differentiation in the minds of consumers. In this highly fragmented category, few brands have generated sufficient awareness, or differentiation, to make a strong impression on the wealthy. This accounts for the tight variances in scores across most dimensions on luxury status.

The key to transforming mental models is to interrupt the automatic responses that are driven by the old model and respond differently based on the new model.

We have seen a lot of good linebackers with Miami and some of the teams we play, like N.C. State. He certainly ranks up there with them.
