    I know very little about marketing, but I do know how to Google with a variety of keywords. I'm betting I could answer this after doing a bit of research.

    I'm just guessing. (How do you plan to get a degree if you can't figure this stuff out though? This is NOTHING compared to what you will get.)

    Both companies were 'there first' in many ways, in their respective categories. That creates 'brand recognition' as well as 'brand loyalty.'
    Many people find the taste of Coke addictive. I know I did before I gave it up. I guess that comes under loyalty in a way...

    Apple adds the ingredient of quality. Their computers are much harder to hack than any other brand I know of, and that's just one thing.
    They also manage to be innovative, many times 'first' with new products, not just the Apple I way back when.
    There's tons more. THINK. Or find a new area of study.
