In a summer heat wave, it’s hard to go wrong selling cool drinks, which helps explain why brands like A&W, Miller and Diet Pepsi dominated YouGov BrandIndex’s monthly Top 10 list of improvers in consumer perception for July. Coming in at No. 1 for good buzz was electronics makers LG, which captured media attention for adding 3-D gaming to TVs and plans to release a new smartphone. A second electronics maker, HP, also made the list amid news about forthcoming HP Envy Spectre Ultrabook and plans to use solar energy.
