There are plenty of ways a brand can earn our loyalty. Factors like product quality, price, and convenience come into play, but so do things like nostalgia and a brand’s social values.
To find out which brands Americans loved the most, Morning Consult surveyed over 400,000 consumers to find out which brands have the highest favorability, trust, and community impact across generations.
The Index is based on four metrics:
- Favorability Score: The percentage of consumers with a favorable opinion of the brand.
- Trust Score: The percentage of consumers who trust the brand to do the right thing.
- Community Impact Score: The percentage of consumers who say the brand has a positive impact on their local community.
- Net Promoter Score: Consumers are asked on a scale of 1-10 how likely they would be to promote a given brand. The NPS is determined by subtracting the percentage who said 0-6 from the percentage who said 9 or 10.
