Brand Building

You’re facing a tough sales and promotion environment, and fragmented media, margin pressure and competition for shelf real estate are fighting for your marketing dollar.

Despite the challenges, however, being a strong brand has never been more important. Without powerful branding that captures attention and is distinctive and compelling, the battle can only be fought on price. Quite simply, strong brands win market share and loyalty. They also command higher premiums.

Achieving and sustaining brand growth is about tapping into and driving demand, and connecting with your customers via the right offers and the right conversations. To win, you need to understand how your brand impacts purchase intent and sales performance. Nielsen creates this link by directly correlating its proprietary measure of brand equity with market share and customer loyalty.
