A company’s brand is one of its most important assets and deserves nurturing. Despite this, many brands are created and left to their own devices. They not supported, they are not managed and they are not developed.
B2B International has exceptional experience across B2B and B2C brands throughout the world. We have researched, in depth, hundreds of brands in the last two decades. We have developed proprietary tools for assessing the strength of brands – this is our brand audit.
What we will set out to do
Our starting point will be to assess whether your brand portfolio is made up of real brands or simply products which have been given a brand name (very often the case, especially in business to business markets). Brand rationalization is an important part of our brand audit and we will advise you which brands should be culled and which should be retained and developed.
Once we have isolated the brands that should be developed, we will work with you to show the strengths and weaknesses of your brands in three important areas:
- awareness and usage
- brand positioning
- brand delivery.
How we will do it
We will work with you to determine opportunities to rationalize your brand portfolio. When we have determined the brands to focus on, we will assess the health of each in the brand wheel.
An example of the tool we will use is as follows:
