Drivers of Brand Preference: The RDE Framework
If you want to grow brand preference, you need to know what moves it. There are three forces that reliably drive Brand Preference: โก๏ธ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ: How well your brand fits the consumerโs needs, occasions, and emotions at the moment of choice โก๏ธ ๐๐ถ๐ณ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป: Meaningful distinctiveness that sets your brand apart โก๏ธ ๐๐บ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐น ๐๐ฑ๐๐ผ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐: A sense…

The Marketing Model: Equity and the Short-Term Gap
What if your brand tracker could explain both short-term bumps and long-term brand value? ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ฑ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ integrates longโterm equity with the shortโterm marketing gap. Equity reflects the durable preference structure built by product truth and cumulative communication. The marketing gap captures immediate factors like price, promotions, availability, and competitive noise that can suppress or amplify…

Cadence: Fewer Reads, More Signal
More tracking doesnโt mean better insight. Always-on measurement implies value proportional to frequency. In practice, it amplifies noise. The smarter approach is to time measurements to the consumer buying cycle and to known inflection moments like major campaigns, product changes, retail resets, and competitive launches. Sampling can then be sized to detect changes that matter,…

Communication & Creative ROI
Creativity separates brands from commodities. But creativity alone isnโt enough because todayโs brands run ecosystems: Instagram stories, influencer clips, connected TV spots, and more. Each touchpoint shapes how consumers experience the brand. If those pieces arenโt coordinated, the result isnโt synergy. ๐๐ตโ๐ด ๐ด๐ต๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ค. Thatโs where measurement comes in. Not to reduce creativity to a scorecard.…

Targeting & Audience Design
Not every consumer has equal value to your brand. So why treat them all the same? Some are heavy users. Others barely engage. Some are loyal to your competition. Others are ready to be persuaded. Thatโs why tracking has to do more than report averages. It must reveal how each audience segment behaves, what they…

Introducing Unlimited Creative Testing
Creative testing has been broken for years. Itโs time to fix it. Most creative testing is too slow, too expensive, or too disconnected to help shape the actual work. So testing gets skipped, and campaigns go live without enough proof theyโll perform. ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ด๐ฒ ๐๐ gives teams a better way. Unlimited testing. One price. Any…

The New Creative Development Workflow
Testing shouldnโt be a checkpoint. It should be part of the creative process. Too often, testing happens too late, after creative decisions are made and budgets are spent. With ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ด๐ฒ ๐๐, that workflow shifts. Now you can test ideas early, at storyboard or animatic, and see what connects within minutes. Then refine, retest, and…

Communication and Creative ROI
The best creative does more than stand out. It moves the brand forward. Creative is the dividing line between brands and commodities. Creativity needs measurement that respects craft without reducing it to vanity metrics. ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ฑ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ assesses communication at two levels: 1๏ธโฃ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น (does this ad, idea, or execution move the right driver…

Governance & the Operating Rhythm
Great systems fail when decision rights are ambiguous. A pragmatic governance model assigns ownership for three loops: 1๏ธโฃ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐๐ผ๐ผ๐ฝ (fielding, quality, and technical stewardship) 2๏ธโฃ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ป๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ผ๐ผ๐ฝ (diagnosis, synthesis, and narrative building) 3๏ธโฃ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ผ๐ผ๐ฝ (action ownership, budget routing, and accountability) โค Quarterly reviews focus on a small set of movements…

Premiumization
The premiumization gap is growing. And itโs about more than price… New analysis of global CPG companies reveals a striking pattern. While most are increasing prices, only some are growing volume. European companies are managing to expand while U.S. firms are stuck in a pricing-only lane. Whatโs working? Successful brands are moving beyond functional value.…
