“Brand Advocates” are a small, but highly engaged

and influential, group of customers

Typically representing 5-10% of the customer base

A strong emotional connection with—and affinity

for—your brand. Like they work for you.

They have always been valuable because they are

influential. But they are much more so today

because of their reach, the speed with which they

can influence, and the tools at their disposal to

influence.

Can “drive” for 20% to 30% of total sales
