Brand Metrics e-Commerce Companies Need to Watch

Brand metrics are qualitative and quantitative measurements markets use to analyze and track the perception, performance and strength of a brand. These assessments allow marketers to gain insight into their brand awareness, loyalty and health among a company’s target audience and general market.

With competition in the e-commerce sector getting increasingly fierce by the year, proper brand positioning can help e-commerce companies stand out from the pack, more effectively attracting and retaining customers over the long-term. Marketers can use brand metrics to learn how customers feel about their company and its products, and how likely they are to purchase specific products over others, allowing marketers to tailor their advertising efforts.

Brand-related metrics will offer you insights on familiarity, perception and investment.

Familiarity metrics will show how familiar consumers are with your products and enhance efforts to boost brand awareness, while perception metrics will help you understand if customers are willing to pay a higher premium for your product. Investment metrics indicate the likelihood of customers purchasing your products or services and can help you create specialized advertising campaigns to target shoppers who are more likely to purchase.

Brand equity is the value customers are willing to pay for a brand. It is broken into four dimensions: brand awareness, brand loyalty, perceived quality and brand associations. Each dimension provides value to e-commerce companies and can help marketers tailor their marketing efforts to reach the most customers and boost sales.

Brand awareness metrics measure the percentage of a company’s target market that is familiar with its brand. High brand awareness will be key to retaining your existing customers and attracting new ones as new customers are more likely to gravitate to more prominent brands.

Brand loyalty is a measure of the customers who are likely to buy your products repeatedly regardless of their position on the supply chain. Achieving high brand loyalty often indicates a relatively stable customer base and predictable sales forecasts, which in turn reduce the need for advertising, thereby lower marketing costs.

Brand consistency analyzes whether a brand presents itself uniformly across different touch points and channels. This is an especially important metric for e-commerce companies with different channels of communication with their customers. Ideally, customers prefer to have a uniform experience when dealing with e-commerce companies, regardless of the channels they use.

Purchase intent, on the other hand, gauges how likely customers are to buy your brand’s products or services and can also help you forecast future sales. Once you have attracted buying customers, you can use shopper satisfaction metrics to determine how happy they are with your brand’s services or products.

Integrating all these brand metrics and insights into your marketing plans will help you create targeted marketing strategies and remain competitive in the e-commerce segment.
