What they are like

Authoritative and composed, the Ruler wants order and the prosperity that comes with it. They are used to being in charge and expect the same standard from everyone around them, and they defend their position.

How to brand to them

Reinforce their standing. Exclusivity and quality speak to this archetype; appealing to the masses does the opposite. Never suggest they are one of the crowd — suggest they run it.
