  • FAQs

    What is brand awareness?

    Brand awareness is a customer’s knowledge, perception, and familiarity with a brand. A customer’s perception of a brand is based on a range of inputs over time. Companies build brands by delivering a consistent message and experience across touchpoints. That consistency, including the repetition of messaging and experience, is fundamental to making your brand memorable, which is key to building brand awareness.

    Why is brand awareness important?

    Brand awareness is important because it helps your brand become top of mind with potential customers when they begin to consider purchase decisions. Though the purchase journey is not linear, the traditional marketing funnel still provides a useful visualization and demonstrates the importance of awareness. Brand awareness is often the beginning of that purchase journey.

    How do you increase brand awareness?

    Companies use a range of techniques to increase awareness for their brands, such as promotions, social media campaigns, influencer programs, and, most notably, brand advertising. Many of the ad solutions listed above can help increase brand awareness.

    How do you measure brand awareness?

    There are a number of key performance indicators that help measure brand awareness, including ad recall and frequency.
