No two brands are the same – they have different objectives, serve different needs, are in different stages of their product life cycle, face different levels of competitive intensity, are run by different marketers with their own strategies etc.
So why is it that we measure them the same way? Why do market researchers have the tendency to push standardized research approaches across brands regardless of a brand’s context?
An amplitude of branding frameworks is guiding marketers on how to grow strong brands. These theories and models have been translated into numerous books inspiring marketers on how to achieve brand success. Trying to capture and simplify this abundance of theories and framework, we found we could group them in five schools of thought or Brand Religions:
All these branding frameworks do not only define brand strength, but also which metrics to pursue and how these should be measured, influencing ultimately what we research and how.
From developing a brand key, testing a communication campaign to tracking brand performance, we understand and master these different schools of thought and actively use this expertise when defining the leading approach for your brand challenges.
We’d love to showcase what our Branding & Communication research solutions can do for your brand. So get in touch to request your showcase.
