MAPCHANGE 2010 - A Sustainability Brand Map Study

A sustainable image can be a brand's best source of competitive advantage. While corporate sustainability is a good start, until it becomes part of the brand, it will not affect consumer perception. Click Here to Download

Change's first MapChange study in 2008 showed that there is a big difference between brand perception and product reality. Consumers thought certain brands were sustainable when they actually weren't, while other brands weren't considered sustainable, when they really were.

For our 2010 study we wanted to not only to profile the difference between actual and perceived brand sustainability, but how the brands in question measure up against their direct competition. We also wanted to expand the scope of the study, giving a greater overview of the North American market.

For MapChange 2010 we partnered with Climate Counts and Angus Reid Public Opinion to compare the top brands within 10 sectors. We gave each brand an 'actual' and a 'perceived' sustainability score and plotted the results on a classic perceptual map. Get the results!
