Pulling Back the Curtain on Brand Valuation (Originally Published August 2024)

Your brand drives consumer behavior, shapes purchasing decisions, and fuels economic growth, but can you prove it with numbers? While companies invest millions in logos, marketing campaigns, and brand positioning, most struggle to move beyond subjective descriptions like "strong brand recognition" or "customer loyalty" when communicating value to investors, lenders, or their own C-suite. Meanwhile, investors are increasingly scrutinizing intangible assets to assess future returns, and banks are factoring IP value into lending decisions. The question isn't whether your brand has value, it's whether you can quantify, benchmark, and strategically leverage that value for a competitive advantage. Today’s guest is David Haigh, founder and CEO of Brand Finance, the world's leading brand valuation consultancy that values over 5,000 brands globally each year. With 30+ years of experience as a pioneer in brand valuation, Haigh shares how organizations can assess, benchmark, and strategically leverage their intangible assets.
