A well-understood brand is key to building and improving relationships with your audiences. We’ll help you measure the perceptions of and affinity with your brand in the wider market.
Finding out what your audiences think about you.
Your brand is your organisation’s DNA. It stands for your principles, ethos and beliefs; your personality, attitudes and character; how you behave; and what you promise to deliver. A strong brand will invite audiences to affiliate with you and build relationships that drive behavioural change.
However, building and maintaining a strong brand requires work, and understanding how your audience is perceiving this brand requires careful research and robust data. As brand experts, MHM can deliver a host of qualitative and quantitative methods to help you understand your audience’s ‘brand affinity’; how your brand is being perceived, and how close your audience feels to it. This process can help us start to close ‘brand gaps’ – areas where you aren’t quite living up to your promise.
