To say brand communications matter would be an understatement.

Ads, commercials, videos, blogs, print, social, outdoor, all matter when it comes to building a brand. And we’re pretty sure your media shops know how to cost-effectively target consumers.

The thing is, cost-effective targeting is one issue. Creating brand engagement and loyalty via media consumption is an entirely different issue. How and where ads are consumed can have tremendous effects on loyalty.

This year Brand Keys merged our independently-validated emotional engagement loyalty metrics with Media GPS. This unique data set, developed by Brand Keys, was employed by The Advertising Research Foundation in their seminal “How Advertising Works Today” initiative. Correlations between Media GPS-enhanced loyalty metrics and actual sales were 0.82+. So, a very, very close relationship, making these loyalty metrics the most accurate anywhere in the marketing or research world.

How does it work? Well, in the same way traditional GPS provides accurate determination of geographical locations, Media GPS, pinpoints the strategic intersection of brand engagement and media consumption. It identifies precisely where brands can strategically amplify loyalty along their category path-to-purchase – among those already-targeted consumers.
