Google Glass: Wearable technology accelerates transformation of your consumers into brand advocates

Following my master's thesis about "HOW CAN THE SPECIFIC FEATURES OF WEARABLE TECHNOLOGIES ACCELERATE THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE CONSUMERS INTO ENTHUSIASTIC BRAND ADVOCATES?" in the sector of infotainment, fitness and wellness, I've decided to adapt this question to the Google Glass product. Legitimate brands should forecast the wearable technology market growth in their long-term business plan and use this major opportunity to benefit from this trend in terms of marketing. By the fact that the wearable technology is following wearers in their intimacy, the link between both could be stronger than for the other products but it also raises more ethical questions. How is the today wearable technology global market? What can brands learn from early case studies that hit the mainstream market? What is the strategy to be profitable when launching a wearable technology? And so, how can the specific features of wearable technologies accelerate the transformation of consumers into enthusiastic brand advocates?

![ok glass,
this is my opinion: brand advocacy?
? I started to get emotional about which one was
more "me." Its not like how you feel about a
favorite pair of sunglasses, but it evokes a similar
response. Theyre supposed to feel like yours. [...]
Honestly, I started to like Glass a lot when I was
wearing it. It wasnt uncomfortable and it brought
something new into view (both literally and
?guratively) that has tremendous value and
potential. I dont think my face looks quite right
without my glasses on, and I didnt think it looked
quite right while wearing Google Glass, but after a
while it started to feel less and less not-right. And
thats something, right??
