3. Brand Challenge
Separate the wheat from the chaff; distinguish BAV, the
empirical model, from what the data can do - Energize
Differentiation. Brand Asset Valuator’s brand proposition
and its product offering occupy similar positionings.

7. Situation Analysis - Hypothesis
Universally, today’s business climate for brand and
financial management suffers low visibility; decisions made
today can appear as illusions tomorrow. How do
managers assess brand value in uncertain markets?
New metrics come and go as passing waves. Decision
makers require easy-to-use, accurate and reliable tools,
and systems more than ever. Confidence is achieved
through market-proven strategic validation.
