Introducing Reputation Capital

We’ve always believed that reputation drives results – now, we can prove it. Burson's Reputation Capital is the first product to connect what builds reputation to what grows your business. Using cutting-edge technology, we’ve reinvented how to build and protect reputation to deliver smarter advice and bolder ideas. In today's fast-moving world, our global team of creative problem-solvers is helping brands reinvent how reputation is earned, turning reputation into a competitive advantage that directly impacts your bottom line.

What is it?

Reputation Capital is a technology platform and consulting framework that helps clients understand the relationship between proven drivers of reputation and business outcomes such as stock price, sales and purchase intent.

Why is it different?

Reputation Capital is the only dynamic and predictive platform that identifies the key factors influencing your reputation, shows you the direct link to business results and provides actionable insights to help you build a stronger, more valuable reputation.

Traditional reputation tracking is static and backward-looking – a survey or an index – and often one-dimensional. Burson’s Reputation Capital gives you a live, forward-looking view of multiple reputation drivers, so you can spot risks and opportunities in a fast-changing world.

How does it work?

Reputation Capital analyzes eight key levers – like governance and creativity – to predict outcomes such as stock price, sales and loyalty, giving you actionable insights to drive communications decisions to maximize your brand’s value. Using these drivers, you'll see your live reputation score, spot emerging risks and opportunities and understand the financial impact of your reputation. We help you focus on what delivers the biggest ROI, empowering our experts to create bold ideas and innovative solutions that move the needle.
