Pick the perspective that fits the question.

A brand is decided as much by the people who work for it as the people who buy it. Measure one side, and you see half the picture. Measure both, on their own or as a bundle, and the blind spots close.

Four steps from survey to real decision.

The process is the same whether you run Brandr Index, Employer Index, or both. Fifteen minutes to set up, results in two weeks, and a clear read on what to change.

Send your survey

Collect focused insights from customers or employees using a survey built around your strategic priorities. Pre-built, ready to send, and four minutes to complete, so response rates stay high.

Analyze results instantly

Real-time analytics turn raw responses into clear indicators of brand health, perception, and alignment. No spreadsheet work, no consultants, no waiting for a research firm to finish.

Identify what matters most

Brandr surfaces the patterns and priority areas in the data, so you see what deserves attention. Let the perception data show you where the gap between strategy
and reality sits.

Take action

Act on the insights, then track progress over time. Run regular waves and pulses to see how scores move, spot trends early, and confirm whether your decisions are working.

How customers actually see your brand.

Brandr Index measures the strength of your external positioning across four research-backed dimensions, the ones that move buying decisions. Trusted by Iceland's biggest brands, and now expanding into the Nordics and the UK.

Differentiation

How clearly your brand stands apart in the category. The single most predictive dimension for long-term growth.

Segmentation

Whether the right audiences recognize themselves in the brand, and whether you're drawing the customers you actually want.

Perception & Image

What people associate with the brand: the qualities, feelings, and associations that surface unprompted.

Social Responsibility

How customers read your stance on sustainability, ethics, and the role you play beyond profit.

See your brand's real number.

The dashboard turns data into decisions, and decisions into measurable growth.

Marketing leadership

A CMO defending budget

The board challenge
"Can you prove the brand work moved anything?"
What brandr Index does
Quarter-on-quarter scores per dimension. Show what moved, what didn't, and which campaigns shifted the brand.
Founder / launch team

A new entrant

The blind spot
"How does the category see us, and where's the open ground?"
What brandr Index does
Map the full category. Find the dimension nobody else is winning on. Build positioning around the gap.
CEO / board

A board considering rebrand

The question
"Do we actually need this, or are we just bored?"
What brandr Index does
 An honest pre-rebrand baseline. If the score is sound and only specific dimensions are weak, you don't need a rebrand, you need targeted work.

The brand your team lives every day.

Employer Index measures internal brand perception across three dimensions. Your strongest advocates aren't your customers, they're the people who show up every day, and this tells you whether they believe what you sell.

Branding

Whether employees understand, believe in, and can articulate the brand promise. Internal clarity, not external messaging.

Human Resources

How people experience the company as an employer: onboarding, development, leadership, and the day-to-day reality of working there.

Equality

Whether the promise of fairness, opportunity, and inclusion holds up internally as well as it reads externally.

See the gap between what you say and what your team lives.

The dashboard turns data into decisions, and decisions into measurable growth.

C-suite / board

A CEO after a strategic pivot

The worry
"Did the new strategy land internally, or is it just on the slide deck?"
What Employer Index does
Reads the room. Tells you whether each level has internalized the change, or if the message stopped at middle management.
HR / People & Culture

A People lead at scale

The brief
"Make this a better place to work, but tell us what that means here."
What Employer Index does
Quantifies culture into the same dimensions as the external brand. Replaces vague engagement surveys with targeted action.
CEO / board

A company about to advertise

The risk
"We're about to spend 80M ISK saying we stand for X. Do we actually?"
What Employer Index does
De-risks the campaign. If the internal score for X is low, you have an alignment problem. Fix it before you spend the media.

Two indexes, one rigorous method.

Both indexes run on the same four-stage research process, grounded in the brand-equity work of Aaker, Keller, and Kapferer and refined over nine years of fieldwork in Iceland.

Panel

For Brandr Index, a standing panel of 2,400+ verified Icelandic respondents, weighted to national demographics. For Employer Index, your own staff, fully anonymous.

Survey

30 factors across four dimensions for Brandr Index, three dimensions for Employer Index. The same survey every quarter, comparable across years.

Score

A statistical engine produces a single composite score from 0 to 100, plus dimension breakdowns, segment views, and a category benchmark.

Compare

Benchmarked against your category, your direct competitors, your own history, and the two indexes against each other.

Everything the score is telling you, in one place.

See how brand perception shapes behavior and outcomes across your organization, live and in one place. Four capabilities that turn a score into a decision.
01

Track alignment
across the organization

Understand how leadership, teams, and customers experience the brand, all in one view. See where the internal and external picture line up, and where they don't.
02

Identify what drives trust and confidence

See which factors influence sentiment, loyalty, and long-term brand strength. Drill into the dimensions that move the score and the ones that don't, so you stop spending budget on metrics that don't matter.
03

Compare across
time and structure

Analyze trends across years, departments, regions, and segments. Brand-building is a long game, and the dashboard treats it that way: every wave plotted, every change visible, every campaign trackable.
04

Share clarity across teams

Build reports and dashboards that make the insight usable for everyone involved. Export to PDF for the board. Share live links with agencies. Push key metrics into Slack or Teams.

The strategic positioning we wrote was one sentence long: The rental brand built for the people who live here.

That sentence did three useful things at once. It told Icelanders the brand was for them. It told tourists the brand was vetted by locals — a stronger trust signal than any rating system. And it gave the operations team a North star for every decision downstream: if it doesn't serve the people who live here, don't ship it.

This is one of the most robust approaches I've come across when it comes to measuring brand health internally — I really like how it connects brand strength directly to workforce outcomes.
