Measuring the Success of Your Brand

When building and measuring the effectiveness of brands, it's crucial to track certain key metrics. These metrics give insight into how well your messaging and visuals resonate with your audience and whether they align with your brand identity. 

Here's where I want to start with my personal brand:

Brand Awareness: This measures how recognizable your personal brand is. Tools like social media insights (e.g., reach, impressions) and Google Analytics (e.g., direct traffic, referral traffic, organic traffic) help you assess whether people are familiar with your brand (Claire Beveridge, Semrush Blog).

Engagement: Track likes, comments, shares, and other KPIs on social media posts to understand how content resonates with the audience. High engagement often means your messages and visuals are relevant and captivating.

Sentiment Analysis: Use tools like surveys or social listening tools to capture how the audience feels about the brand (Kiran Shahid, Sprout Social). Are the messages generating positive, neutral, or negative responses?
