New York, NY (July 19, 2016) – Tenet Partners, a leading brand innovation firm, today released its 2016 Top 100 Most Powerful Brands Report. For the ninth year in a row, Coca-Cola claims the top position, Google – Alphabet Inc. enters into the Top 10 for the first time, and Amazon emerges as the ‘top-riser’ increasing 12 positions year-over-year.

Tenet’s Top 100 Most Powerful Brands are ranked in corresponding order by a measure of BrandPower – a single indicator of brand strength that examines a company’s reputation in the marketplace along with its ability to impact business performance. Participants hailing from the top 20% of corporations in the United States (based on revenue) are surveyed on two key metrics that contribute to a brand’s strength: Familiarity and Favorability. Familiarity measures awareness of the brand. Favorability measures the perception of the brand, based on how it performs across three attributes, including Overall Reputation, Perception of Management, and Investment Potential.

Highlights and key findings from this year’s Top 100 Most Powerful Brands Report include:

Microsoft (#6) moves closer to Apple, climbing one spot year-over-year. Johnson & Johnson is the biggest decliner among the Top 10 brands, falling two spots to enter at #8 this year. Five new brands entered this year’s ranking: Samsung (#39), Hilton Hotels & Resorts (#44), Bloomin’ Brands Inc. (#91), Macy’s (#95), and American Airlines (#99).

Top 10

Coca-Cola (#1)
Hershey (#2)
Bayer (#3)
Walt Disney (#4)
Apple (#5)
Microsoft (#6)
PepsiCo (#7)
Johnson & Johnson (#8)
American Express (#9)
Google – Alphabet Corporation (#10)

Top Risers

Amazon (#54, +15)
Bank of America (#68, +12)
Macy’s (#95, +12)
eBay (#29, +11)
Clorox (#47, +11)

Steepest Decliners

Eastman Kodak (#59, -12)
Nintendo (#94, -12)
General Motors (#74, -9)
Walgreens (#41, -8)
Western Union (#84, -8)

Five years of consistent BrandPower growth

Five years ago, the average BrandPower score for the Top 100 was 61.9. This year, the average BrandPower score is 64. 9. This continued resurgence in brand strength indicates favorable brand perception and awareness among consumers, business leaders and other influential audiences.

Consumer Cyclicals dominate the Top 100 ranking

Consumer Cyclicals, or, companies and stocks that reply heavily on the business cycle and economic conditions – such as Automotive, Entertainment, Hospitality and Retail, make up the single largest group among Tenet’s Top 100 Most Powerful Brands, representing 38 companies. Within Consumer Cyclicals, Retail is the most represented industry, with 13 companies hailing from the category. Barnes & Noble, coming in at #32, is the most powerful retail brand, enjoying a 13-point advantage over Target, which retains its #45 position from last year.

Examining the movement of this year’s Top 100 Most Powerful Brands year-over-year, three macro trends emerge that reveal how leading brands are building competitive advantage.

The standout brands of 2016 successfully:

Transform Business Models

Companies that are staying ahead of the curve are doing so by knowing when and how to launch new business models or transform old ones. For example, GE (#18), perhaps the world’s ultimate industrial conglomerate has been able to evolve and remain relevant over the course of its 130-year history. In 2011, as information-based, ‘smart’ products took over; CEO Jeff Immelt declared that GE needed to become a software and analytics company or risk seeing their hardware products become commodities. In turn, GE invested more than $1 billion to build a software “Center of Excellence” in San Ramon, California – hiring more than 1,000 software engineers and data scientists to provide enhanced software and analytical skills across the company’s many business units.

Drive innovation with clarity of purpose

Breaking into the Top 10 of the Top 100 Most Powerful Brands for the first time, Google (#10) has built a powerful ecosystem of products and services, including Search, Maps, Gmail, YouTube, Drive, and Chrome that have helped to solidify its brand globally. The company’s new holding company, Alphabet was introduced to create greater brand clarity as well as operational efficiency, separating Google’s core business from its innovative initiatives. Larry Page’s letter to investors and employees announcing the reorganization demonstrated that it has a clear understanding of the ingredients of its success, the core of their brands, and how it will continue to drive future brand innovation.

Deliver stellar customer experiences

Lowe’s (#48) brings value to their brand by developing innovative marketing ideas to outpace the competition. Through their ‘Innovation Lab,’ Lowe’s developed the latest in Augmented Reality in the form of an app. Through a computer-generated model of a real-world environment (such as a specific room in a house), a customer can design their virtual room with Lowe’s products (countertops, furniture, lighting, fixtures, paint colors, etc.) and then walk through one of Lowe’s ‘HoloRooms’ – an actual 20×20 dedicated space in the store, and experience a 3-D model of their designed room.

“The Top 100 Most Powerful Brands are redefining themselves to remain relevant,” said Hampton Bridwell, CEO of Tenet Partners. “In this age of disruption, they are successfully aligning their business and brand strategy, creating clarity in the marketplace, and winning the customer loyalty battle by delivering consistent results and outstanding customer experiences.”

About Tenet Partners’ Top 100 Most Powerful Brands

Tenet Partners derives its annual Top 100 Most Powerful Brands from its quantitative database – the CoreBrand^® Index (CBI) – the results from continuous benchmark tracking via surveys of nearly 1,000 different companies across 50 industries for over 25 years. Each year, we survey approximately ten thousand influential decision makers on two key brand metrics: Familiarity and Favorability. Familiarity measures awareness of the brand. Favorability measures the perception of the brand, based on how it performs across three attributes: Overall Reputation, Perception of Management, and Investment Potential.

These quantitative metrics, Familiarity and Favorability, are then combined into a composite score called BrandPower – a standard measure that can be used to objectively compare brands both within and across industries. BrandPower is a predictive driver that a company can manage – through increased communication, product innovation, service development and so forth, to ultimately increase its brand value over time. It is for this reason that Tenet’s Top 100 Most Powerful Brands are ranked by an objective BrandPower score, and not on the basis of bran value.

The brands listed on the Tenet Top 100 Most Powerful Brands ranking must meet several criteria to be considered. The must be: A corporate brand (not a product or divisional brand), publicly traded in the U.S. and tracked in CoreBrand Index (CBI) for 5+ years.

New York, NY (March 23, 2016) – Tenet Partners, a leading brand innovation and marketing firm, today announced it received Merit Recognition in the 2016 Rebrand 100^® global award competition. The accolade recognizes the strategy, development and implementation of the Tenet Partners brand, formed from the merger of Brandlogic and CoreBrand in 2014.

Charged with creating a unified company that would balance and build off of Brandlogic’s and CoreBrand’s respective legacies and decades of expertise building brands in a changing, multi-channel world, the firm set out to create a new agency model – one that put customer-centric experiences at the core of driving brand innovations.

“Brandlogic and CoreBrand joined forces to create Tenet Partners with the goal of providing broader and deeper value to clients,” said Hampton Bridwell, CEO and Managing Partner of Tenet Partners. “Our brand is an important symbol of our commitment to helping clients put customers at the center of their business strategies. It is an honor to be recognized in the Rebrand 100 among such an elite group of global brands and agencies.”

The foundation of the Tenet Partners brand is the belief that in order to grow a business and drive revenues, a new set of principles is required that put customers at the center of business strategy. CMOs today are wrestling with the challenge of building brand experiences around customers, not merely attracting customers to a brand. Uncovering innovative areas of opportunity and helping organizations better understand how being brand-centric is good for business – this is served as the core ethos and guiding principle when bringing the two firms together under a single entity.

The company’s name Tenet was derived from the word tenet, a commonly held belief or principle. As a united company, Tenet Partners continues its shared philosophical legacy of creating and executing practical solutions to branding, technology and marketing applications for the world’s leading organizations. Partners is a nod to the firm’s collaborative and human-centered approach to brand building.

“While “Tenet” as a name reflects a belief or ethos, our visual identity reinforces the strength of conviction that stands behind that belief, “said Randell Holder, Design Director at Tenet Partners. “Simple and bold, the logo is bracketed top and bottom by vertical rules perfectly aligned to the visual center of the mark – bringing it back to the notion of thinking, believing and discovering more customer centered solutions.”

Tenet Partners brings together the complementary skills of the Brandlogic and CoreBrand teams, creating an employee-owned organization of researchers, strategists, writers, designers, technologists and thought leaders across four offices in New York City, Santa Monica, Rochester, N.Y. and Wilton, Conn. The company’s client history includes more than 200 high-profile global businesses, 90 percent of which are Fortune 500 corporations in the financial services, healthcare, industrial, pharmaceuticals, technology, insurance, transportation, consumer goods, education, energy, information services, non-profit, professionals and telecom industries.

New York, NY (December 08, 2015) – Amid high-profile announcements concerning the possible sale of Avon Products North American arm to private-equity firm Cerberus Capital Management LP, Tenet Partners, a leading brand innovation and marketing firm has turned its attention to evaluating the strength of the Avon brand.

On the heels of assertions by activist investors Barington Capital and NuOrion Partners that the cosmetics maker is significantly undervalued, Tenet Partners’ CoreBrand Index (CBI) has found that Avon’s BrandPower – a weighted composite of two key metrics that contribute to a brand’s ability to drive long-term growth: Familiarity and Favorability, has been steadily increasing since 2005.

“The successive rise of Avon’s BrandPower suggests there is untapped potential for the company to exert its leadership position in the marketplace,” said Hampton Bridwell, Tenet Partners CEO and Managing Partner. “Avon is an American institution that has empowered generations of women. However, as the company looks to the future, a renewed focus on gaining relevance among younger, and now digitally-driven consumers, will be critical to unlocking the full value of one of its most important assets, the Avon brand.”

As the chart indicates below, Avon’s BrandPower has climbed an impressive 11 points since 2005. Most recently, its brand Favorability fell just one spot below Apple, while its Favorability during 2015 outperformed its top competitors including Revlon, L’Oréal, and Estee Lauder, demonstrating that U.S. consumers still hold the brand in in high regard.

Founded in 1990, Tenet Partners’ CoreBrand Index is the longest continuous quantitative database examining the corporate reputations and brand valuations of nearly 1,000 companies across 50 industries. The Familiarity (awareness) and Favorability (perception) of tracked brands are measured and combined into a single metric called BrandPower. The audience used to measure BrandPower is business decision-makers who represent the perceptions of a cross-section of informed American consumers.
