What they are like

Friendly and unshowy, the Everyman would rather fit in than stand out. Easy to talk to, not too loud and not too clever, quick to trust and quietly afraid of being turned away.

How to brand to them

Make people feel included rather than impressive. Value and honesty beat exclusivity; anything that flatters a select few will read as a door closed in everyone else's face.
