“[Brand trust] is essentially the level of confidence that consumers have in a brand’s ability to keep its promises. And these promises can include the quality of products or services, the brand’s values and mission, or how the brand treats its employees and its customers. There’s a lot of factors that go into brand trust. And what’s been fascinating as a marketer is to see the evolution of brand trust over the years, and how it changes, and how important it becomes not only to consumers as a whole, but we have some really interesting data on how brand trust is thought about generationally, as well.” – Emily Lyman
