Brand Equity Measurement in Action
See how marketing teams use Sourcetable to transform brand data into strategic insights
Consumer Products Brand Revival
A struggling consumer goods company used brand equity analysis to identify perception gaps. By tracking brand association metrics across 12 dimensions, they discovered their 'premium quality' messaging wasn't resonating. The analysis revealed customers valued 'everyday reliability' more, leading to a repositioning campaign that increased brand preference by 35% in six months.
SaaS Brand Differentiation Strategy
A competitive software market left one company struggling to stand out. Their brand equity measurement revealed high awareness but low differentiation scores. Analysis of competitor brand attributes showed an opportunity in 'ease of use' positioning. The resulting campaign increased trial-to-paid conversion rates by 28% and improved brand consideration scores.
Retail Chain Market Expansion
Before expanding to new markets, a retail chain analyzed regional brand equity variations. The measurement revealed their 'trendy fashion' positioning worked in urban areas but fell flat in suburban markets, where 'family value' resonated more. This insight shaped location-specific marketing strategies that improved new store performance by 45%.
Financial Services Brand Recovery
After a service disruption damaged customer trust, a financial institution used brand equity tracking to guide recovery efforts. Monthly measurement across trust, reliability, and competence dimensions showed which messaging strategies rebuilt confidence fastest. The data-driven approach restored brand health scores to pre-incident levels 40% faster than projected.

Brand Equity Measurement FAQ
How often should we measure brand equity?
Measurement frequency depends on your industry and marketing activity level. Most brands benefit from quarterly comprehensive assessments with monthly pulse surveys for key metrics. During major campaigns or market changes, increase frequency to weekly or bi-weekly tracking.
What sample size do we need for reliable brand equity data?
For statistically significant results, aim for 300-500 responses per target segment. For national brands, 1,000+ total responses provide robust data. Remember that consistency in methodology matters more than sample size for trend analysis.
How do we separate brand equity from other marketing effects?
Use control groups, time-series analysis, and marketing mix modeling to isolate brand equity impacts. Compare performance in markets with different brand equity levels while controlling for other variables like pricing and distribution.
Can we measure brand equity for B2B brands?
Absolutely. B2B brand equity measurement focuses on decision-maker perceptions, brand trust, and business value associations. Survey procurement teams, users, and influencers to capture the complete brand equity picture in complex buying situations.
How do we connect brand equity to financial performance?
Use econometric modeling to link equity scores with business outcomes like sales, market share, and profitability. Track correlation between equity changes and financial performance over time to establish predictive relationships.
What's the difference between brand equity and brand health?
Brand health typically focuses on current performance metrics like awareness and satisfaction. Brand equity encompasses the long-term value and competitive advantage your brand creates, including financial premiums and customer loyalty behaviors.
