Marketing requires creativity and thoughtfulness, but it also requires certain standards.
![Page 3: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
In systemizing these standards, marketers can achieve greater creativity and further reach, while crafting more impactful marketing.

You can’t achieve this systemization without understanding the science behind marketing.

We’ll use data to explain what it takes to grow your brand.

Let’s begin.
![Page 7: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
BRAND SIZE
![Page 8: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What makes small brands small, and large brands large?
![Page 9: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
the size of a brand’s buyer marketCUSTOMER LOYALTY MARKET PENETRATION
The answer lies in:
the average purchase rate per customer
![Page 10: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
“Larger brands have slightly higher customer loyalty and much greater penetration than do smaller ones.”
— Byron Sharp, How Brands Grow
![Page 11: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
So smaller brands have far fewer buyers who are less loyal, helping explain their smaller size.
![Page 12: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
SMALL BRANDS LARGE BRANDS
LOYALTY slightly lower slightly higher
PENETRATION much lower much higher
The“Double Jeopardy” Law
![Page 13: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
This phenomenon is known as the “double jeopardy” law.
![Page 14: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Let’s see what the double jeopardy law looks like in action, using the 2005 UK shampoo market.

The graph tells us two major things1. Loyalty doesn’t vary dramatically between brands But it is higher for those with greater market share.
2. Annual market penetration varies with market share Larger brands have far larger penetration than smaller ones.

CUSTOMER LOYALTY
![Page 18: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Let’s take a closer look at customer loyalty.
![Page 19: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Are customers more loyal to some brands over others?
![Page 20: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Yes and no.
![Page 21: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Customers do adopt a certain level of loyalty behavior in that they don’t switch between all brands available.
![Page 22: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
But some degree of brand switching will always occur across all kinds of market categories, consumers, and brands.
![Page 23: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Analytical time frame mattersConsumer loyalty also starts to look different when assessed over a shorter time frame versus a longer-term one.
![Page 24: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Marketers tend to focus on short-term engagement metrics, rather than longer-term ones.
![Page 25: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
This has important implications for customer loyalty.

The graph tells us two major things1. A one-week time frame will show little customer disloyalty Customers usually don’t have the time or need to buy multiple brands in just one week.
2. A year-long time frame will show far greater disloyalty. Customers have the time and need to buy a product multiple times, making it very likely they bought from a couple different brands.
![Page 28: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
“So how loyal a customer appears is largely an analytical misattribution, unrelated to ‘true’ loyalty.”
— Byron Sharp, How Brands Grow

THE WRAP-UP
![Page 30: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
What have we learned?1. Smaller brands have far fewer buyers who are less loyal
Brand growth lies in increasing market penetration, or buyer market
![Page 31: Small vs. Large Brands: How to Become a Market Leader](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052705/5871c6691a28ab55058b81ab/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
What have we learned?1. Smaller brands have far fewer buyers who are less loyal
Brand growth lies in increasing market penetration, or buyer market
2. Customer loyalty is largely out of your control: it will always occur Most loyalty measures are skewed by the time frame, resulting in analytical misattributions
