Brand aversion is an antonym of brand loyalty. It is a distrust or a dislike of products from a particular brand on the basis of past experiences with that brand and its products, similar to taste aversion.
Brand aversion usually happens after recent bad press, a mass product recall, or other poor product launches.
Famous quotes containing the words brand and/or aversion:
““Why does your brand so drop with blood,
Edward, Edward?”
—Unknown. Edward (l. 1–2)
“Our books are false by being fragmentary: their sentences are bon mots, and not parts of natural discourse; childish expressions of surprise or pleasure in nature; or, worse, owing a brief notoriety to their petulance, or aversion from the order of nature,—being some curiosity or oddity, designedly not in harmony with nature, and purposely framed to excite surprise, as jugglers do by concealing their means.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
