"A brand audit...is a more externally, consumer-focused exercise to assess the health of a brand, uncover its sources of brand equity and suggest ways to improve and leverage its equity. A brand audit requires understanding the sources of brand equity from the perspective of both the firm and the consumer. From the perspective of the firm, what products and services are currently being offered to consumers, and how they are being marketed and branded? From the perspective of the consumer, what deeply held perceptions and beliefs create the true meaning of brands and products? Conducting brand audits on a regular basis, such as during the annual planning cycle, allows marketers to keep their fingers on the pulse of their brands. Brand audits are particularly useful background for managers as they set up their marketing plans and can have profound implications on brands' strategic direction and resulting performance" (Keller, 2013, p. 265).
