One way to measure brand value is to try to understand the total value of the brand as a independent monetary asset. In fact, it should be included in your company's balance sheet.

How can we measure the financial value of a brand?

• Cost value of creating and building the brand. This could include budgetary spending on advertising, trademarks, licenses, and so on.

2. Brand Strength

Brand strength, or brand power, can be measured by Emotional data: the differential value that the brand has acquired in someone's mind as a result of multiple interactions over time.

You can capture this data through consumer surveys and a series of evaluative questions that evaluate the consumer's relative preference or “disposition” for the brand.

There are some models such as the Brand Value Creator (BVC) or the Conversion Model (CM) where you can better quantify this information.

3. Brand Awareness

Brand awareness is how well target customers and the market know your brand.

Since brand awareness is an emotion-based metric, it can be measured with questions about:

• A customer's future purchase intention.
• A customer's current brand knowledge now and over time.
• The purchase history of the target customers.

Key methodologies to be used include:

• Focus groups, research panels or customer brand perception surveys.
• Sales data.

• A Net Promoter Score (NPS) can provide information about the customer's emotional connection to a brand, which is a key factor in increasing brand loyalty.

5. Financial Data

You can understand the brand value of a product or service by looking at the company's financial results and sales performance.

Historical data is necessary for Evaluate the brand's performancea, such as market share, profitability, revenue, price, growth rate, cost of retaining customers, cost of acquiring new customers, and investment in the brand.

Also, don't neglect some key indicators of good brand value, which should be increasing if you're on the right track:

• The price premium compared to your competition.
• The rate of revenue growth.
