Everyday You Guess Wrong About Your Brand Costs You Money!

So, what does your target audience actually think about your: Branding

The Reality Gap Report™ stops the guesswork and shows you once and for all: Is your brand vision backed by customer reality, or are you just running with your opinions?


Get real target demo data that reveals where you're succeeding, where you're failing, and exactly what to double down on, improve, or completely overhaul. It's the reality check that saves you thousands in lost sales, wasted ad spend, and stalled growth.

Your Customers Don't Care What You Meant...

Your customers make split-second brand decisions based on what they think you're saying, not what you're actually trying to say. Most brands are throwing darts at their market while blindfolded. You think you're premium but they see overpriced. You think you're approachable but they see unprofessional. You think you're clear but they're confused.

This perception gap isn't just missing the target. It's making every marketing dollar work against you. You're spending money to reinforce the wrong brand image while convincing yourself you're hitting bullseyes. The bigger the disconnect between how you see your brand and how your market sees it, the more money you're bleeding.
The solution isn't throwing more darts. It's taking off the blindfold.

We're About to Show You What Your Brand Actually Looks Like to the People Who Matter.

Through polling of 100 participants from the target demographic information you provide in the onboarding questionnaire, we deliver quantified insights that replace guesswork with certainty.

What We'll Uncover:

✅ Brand Strength Analysis: How strong your brand actually is in the market.

✅ Brand Perception Gap Analysis: How your target demo perceives your brand versus your assumptions

✅ Competitive Reality Check: Where customers really place you in the market landscape

✅ Decision-Driver Insights: The real reasons customers choose you (or don't) - often different from what you think

Reality Gap Report™

The only brand audit that measures what matters: The gap between founder assumptions and customer reality
Step 1 :
How You See It
Complete our questionnaire where you rate your brand on key attributes using a 1-10 scale. You'll also fill out target demographic information, upload any packaging or consumer-facing materials, and provide website and social handles. Takes 15 minutes tops!
Step 2 :
How They See it
Same questions, their perspective. We survey 100 potential customers (based on your target demographic) with the exact same questions - except "my brand" becomes "this brand."
Step 3 :
The Reality Check
The Reality Gap Report puts your answers directly next to the target demo responses. You’ll receive a Brand Strength Score, a Perception Gap Percentage, and 3 key insights highlighting areas of strength and opportunities for improvement.

Your questions answered about our brand testing process and how we help you.
Is the Reality Gap Report™ only for CPG & DTC product-based brands?
Yes. The Reality Gap Report™ is designed specifically for consumer product brands in the CPG and DTC space. Our process relies on real poll takers evaluating the exact things that influence purchase decisions—your packaging, your e-commerce site, and your product presentation. Because of that, it’s not built for service businesses or purely digital products.
How do you find my target demo to interview?
We create a custom target demographic based on your intake form answers, then design this as a poll to gather insights from 100 respondents who match your ideal customer profile.
Is the Reality Gap Report™ only for United States–based brands?
Yes. Currently, the Reality Gap Report™ is only available for United States–based brands with United States–based target demographics.

What if my target demo rates my brand negatively?
That's exactly what you need to see. We present all feedback constructively with specific recommendations for improvement. Negative feedback now prevents bigger problems later.
How is this different from a regular brand audit?
Traditional audits analyze your brand in isolation. We measure the gap between your intentions and customer reality - then show you exactly how to close it.
How long does it take to receive my report?
7-10 business days from the time you complete your intake questionnaire.
What if I don't agree with the findings?
Your opinion matters for internal decisions. Customer opinions determine your revenue. We help you distinguish between the two so you can honor both appropriately.
Why should I act now?
Every month you operate on assumptions instead of customer insights is another month your competition could be gaining ground. The longer you wait to understand how customers really perceive your brand, the more opportunities you're missing and the harder it becomes to course-correct.
