BRAND DRIFT SCORECARD

How aligned is your brand with where the business is going?

 

 

10 questions. 2 minutes.
Be honest—this is for you, not us.

Score each statement from 1 to 5. Don't overthink it — your first instinct is usually right.

1 = Not at all true 3 = Somewhat true 5 = Completely true
01 Our team can describe what we do and why it matters in one consistent sentence.

If five people on your team each gave a different answer, the brand isn't holding.

02 When someone encounters us for the first time — online, in a meeting, through a referral — the impression matches the reality of what we deliver.

Brand isn't just how it looks. It's how you show up — and whether that opens doors before you've said a word.

03 My team can represent the brand confidently without me guiding every detail.

If the brand still lives in your head, it's a bottleneck — not a system.

04 Our visual identity — logo, website, materials — feels built for where we're going, not where we started.

Most brands are designed for the business you were, not the business you've become.

05 When we engage with larger clients, partners, or stakeholders, the brand holds up.

If you're winning work despite your brand rather than because of it, that's drift.

06 We have a clear, documented brand strategy that guides decisions — not just a logo and colours.

A brand without strategy is just decoration. Strategy turns brand into a decision-making tool.

07 It's clear to our market what makes us different — and why that matters.

If you swapped your name onto a competitor's website and it still made sense, that's a problem.

08 Our brand attracts the right people — clients, talent, and partners.

A well-positioned brand is a filter. It pulls the right people in and lets the wrong ones self-select out.

09 We don't feel the need to constantly explain or justify what we do.

When the brand carries the message, you stop selling and start being chosen.

10 If I'm honest, our brand is helping us grow — not holding us back.

The question behind every other question. Trust your gut on this one.
