GrowthTrack: Advanced Brand Tracking

GrowthTrack is Brandspeak's proprietary brand growth framework and brand health tracking methodology, built to measure performance across every customer touchpoint that matters and show you how many customers each one is winning or losing for your brand.

Why Brandspeak for Brand Tracking with GrowthTrack

Why Brandspeak for Brand Tracking with GrowthTrack

Most brands run a brand tracker and still can’t say why the numbers moved. The score shows awareness has slipped, but not which touchpoint caused it, or what to do about it before the moment to act has passed.

GrowthTrack closes that gap. It looks at your product or service alongside your communications and customer experience delivery to reveal what is making buyers stay, switch or walk away. It then pairs the data with expert analysis and recommendations, so you get solutions rather than just numbers.

Running as a wave-based or continuous online brand tracking survey, GrowthTrack uses statistical modelling to identify the drivers of brand choice and growth. This includes the category entry points (CEPs) that matter most, meaning the situations and needs that prompt someone to buy in your category, and which brands come to mind at those moments.

Buyer-dynamics segmentation shows exactly where your customers are being won and lost, and the What-If Simulator lets you test the likely effect of improving any driver before you invest. Questions, touchpoints, KPIs and frequency are all tailored to your business.

Brandspeak has over 20 years of brand tracking experience, and GrowthTrack is run by the same senior consultants behind our brand tracking agency work. As AQR and Market Research Society members delivering across more than 40 international markets, we bring the analysis that sets GrowthTrack apart from generic brand tracking tools.

The Benefits of GrowthTrack

Traditional trackers provide the brand metrics to monitor your brand's position in the marketplace. But GrowthTrack goes further.

Look Beyond Brand Measurement

Look Beyond Brand Measurement

Unlike traditional brand trackers, which focus on brand health alone, GrowthTrack measures and analyses the touchpoints that shape buyer choice: your brand, your communications and your customer experience.

Measure What Really Motivates Buyers

Measure What Really Motivates Buyers

GrowthTrack includes mental availability, meaning how easily your brand comes to mind in buying situations, and category entry points as key brand metrics. Both reflect the Ehrenberg-Bass Institute’s research into how buyers actually choose brands.

Map Out Buyer Dynamics

Map Out Buyer Dynamics

GrowthTrack maps the same buyer dynamics for your competitors, providing competitor benchmarking that shows how your performance compares with theirs in the same market.

Understand Where You Stand Against Competitors

Understand Where You Stand Against Competitors

GrowthTrack doesn't just map your own brand's buyer dynamics, it does the same for your competitors, so you can see how your performance compares with theirs in the same market.

Identify Growth Drivers

Identify Growth Drivers

Using statistical modelling, including key driver analysis, GrowthTrack identifies what underpins brand choice and growth: the levers you can pull to defend your loyal buyers or win over new ones.

Built-In Scenario Testing

Built-In Scenario Testing

The What-If Simulator tests the likely effect of improving each key driver on buyer behaviour before you commit budget, showing which mix of brand, communications and customer experience activity is most likely to deliver growth. It tells you what to do next, as well as what’s happening.

GrowthTrack Research Methods

GrowthTrack is primarily a quantitative method, using online surveys to collect the data. Advanced statistical techniques then identify purchase drivers, and the What-If Simulator tests how changing them would affect buyer behaviour.

Focus Groups & Depth Interviews

Before a GrowthTrack survey is designed, qualitative research using focus groups and in-depth interviews explores how buyers in your category think, talk and choose. They identify the category entry points that trigger purchase, the touchpoints that shape perceptions, and the language customers use to describe brands, so the survey measures what genuinely matters to your buyers, in terms they recognise. This makes the tracker more relevant from the first wave and avoids measuring attributes that look important internally but carry little weight with customers.

Online Surveys

Capture robust, statistically reliable GrowthTrack data about your brand and its impact on customer acquisition and retention, across the touchpoints.

Statistical Modelling & Data Analytics

Statistical modelling turns the survey data into a clear explanation of what is driving brand choice.

Key driver analysis measures how strongly each factor, from mental availability and category entry points to communications and customer experience, influences whether buyers choose, stay with or leave your brand. Buyer-dynamics analysis then shows where those buyers are being won and lost.

Together, these models feed the What-If Simulator, so you can see which changes are likely to have the greatest impact on growth before you commit budget.

Yes. GrowthTrack measures your competitors on the same metrics as your own brand, giving you direct competitor benchmarking against both established rivals and emerging challengers.

Client Feedback

Lauren Williams

We worked with Brandspeak on a brand awareness project and we were extremely pleased with the quality of service and the process. They understood the complexity of the briefs and asked plenty of questions to make sure they fully understand the objectives. They interacted with all levels of people in our business and understood the differences within the market and suggested ways to tie the research together so it was still comparable. The results were delivered with easy to digest summaries that could be used across the business. We would highly recommend using them.
