Brand evangelism can be defined as a consumer’s dedication and enthusiasm about a brand, generally inspired by an emotional connection. For example, let’s say a man becomes a huge fan of a particular brand of sneakers after he found himself running more smoothly while wearing these sneakers. This particular brand of sneakers is now his favorite and he will recommend this brand to as many people as he can.
Customers are always on the lookout for the next best thing and if the present brand fails to meet their expectations, they will switch to a brand that does. The role of the brand evangelist is to create brand loyalists and maintain their loyalty by providing them with a superior level of experience.
How do you measure the effectiveness of a brand evangelist? Well, there are different metrics that you can use but how can you tell how engaged they are? What should you study to understand their engagement levels? In this episode and post, we will provide you with ways to measure the effectiveness of a brand evangelist.
