Edelman’s Bedi will explore brand fandom and how to build it

Through a psychometric approach, brands can use data to better understand consumer motivations, external triggers and behaviours – allowing them to tailor their content, messaging and channel strategy to create fan engagement campaigns which are more relevant.

Bedi will discuss how predictive analytics can enable brands to build fandom and create value through deep data-led insights into fans’ motivations for engagement and triggers.
