Start building momentum
Some brands seem unstoppable. Others struggle to get moving. Why?
Momentum is our brand growth diagnostic system. It helps you understand what’s driving your brand forward, what’s holding it back and what to do next. By combining AI-powered intelligence with human expertise, we uncover the signals that matter and turn them into clear actions for future growth.
Understand your momentum. Unlock your growth.
Growth isn’t just about where you are. It’s about where you’re going
Traditional brand measurement tells you how your brand has performed. But what about what happens next?
Brand growth is more than awareness, consideration or sales. It’s about the forces that make people notice you, talk about you, seek you out and choose you. Lasting momentum depends on strong brand foundations, cultural relevance and how effectively your brand shows up in the market. These forces work together, building momentum that makes future growth easier. Momentum connects the dots to reveal the bigger picture.
Not just how your brand is performing today, but what will help it grow tomorrow.
Built on 100 years of brand theory
The history of brand theory is full of smart, rigorous thinking. None of it is wrong, but likewise none of it explains everything. Our model builds on that theory, bringing it together into one coherent system.
Six signals. One powerful picture.
Momentum measures six interconnected pillars that shape your brand’s ability to grow.
-
Are people talking about your brand?
-
Are people actively seeking you out?
-
Are people visibly choosing and recommending your brand?
-
Is your brand instantly recognisable?
-
Is that interest turning into commercial action?
-
Is that interest turning into commercial action?
The pillars build on one another to create momentum. Momentum, once built, is stored in the flywheel; the brand keeps moving on less and less push.
Momentum is measured across the pillars to produce a single Momentum score, revealing where your brand stands, how it compares with competitors and where momentum is building or slowing. Go beyond individual metrics to see the bigger picture and identify where to act to accelerate growth.
Momentum draws on public data and internal intelligence
Momentum combines publicly available data, from search and social conversations to reviews and market signals, to build a connected view of your brand. Add your existing research and business intelligence over time to deepen the analysis. The result? A clearer picture of your brand, without starting from scratch.
One instrument, used across the planning cycle, which deepens as your own data comes in.
Diagnose: Understand where your brand is gaining or losing ground, how it compares with competitors and why.
Align: Give your teams a shared, evidence-based view of where to focus.
Track: See whether your brand is building, sustaining or losing momentum over time.
Investigate: Understand whether your campaigns, partnerships and other investments are creating lasting impact.
Intelligence that leads to action.
Momentum helps turn the findings into clear priorities across areas of the business that drive brand growth:
Brand & Positioning: Strengthen what your brand stands for and how distinctively it shows up.
Product & Innovation: Identify opportunities to develop your offer and meet emerging demand.
Communications & Engagement: Build attention, conversation and advocacy.
