From the lesson Defining Brand Equity

NameDate

Work through each step on paper or on screen. Use a real business, a project of your own or a friend’s idea. Keep this page for your portfolio.

1Choose a brand with strong equity.

2List what builds it.

3Assess a smaller brand with the equity checklist.

Worked example to compare with: Seeing equity as a price premium

  • Two bottled waters cost 30 cents each to produce and are chemically identical.
  • Brand A sells at $1.00. Brand B sells at $2.50.
  • Math: the $1.50 difference is a premium customers pay for reputation, trust and associations.
  • Test it: ask people to choose between the two with the labels hidden, then with labels visible. If the label changes the choice, that gap is equity.
  • Takeaway: brand equity is visible in what people will pay and how often they come back.
