How to Measure Brand w/ Preston Rutherford

In this episode, Preston returns for a second time to share his insights on why brands that escape the short-term ROAS feedback loop and focus on long-term brand building are the ones that thrive. He shares actionable things you can do right now in Google Analytics to start getting a sense of the baseline health of your brand - and drawing from his experience growing and exiting Chubbies for nine-figure - he explains why investing in storytelling and customer education pays off in the long run, even when the immediate ROAS isn't through the roof.  We dive into how spending on high-quality video content can lead to more educated, loyal customers—something a static ad or discount-driven campaign just can't replicate. If you're wondering why some brands are still crushing it years later while others fizzle out, this conversation is for you. Tune in to learn how to put brand building in context and why it's crucial for lasting success.
