Brand Awareness

What it is

Brand awareness is how familiar people are with your brand. Do they know you exist? Can they pick your logo out of a lineup? When they think of your category, does your name come to mind?

Why it matters

Awareness comes before everything. Before someone visits your website, reads your reviews, or calls your office, they have to know you're out there.

The mistake most people make

Confusing awareness with recognition. Awareness means people know your name. Recognition means they can identify your brand visually. You need both, but awareness comes first.

Want help with this?
