Introducing BRI™

Brand Residency
Index™

A new standard for measuring brand influence. BRI™ quantifies how long your brand lives on someone's device, how often they see it, and what each impression costs — giving you an apples-to-apples comparison across every promotional product on the market.

Preliminary methodology — final BRI™ scoring is pending client review and third-party validation. Data shown represents current working estimates based on product-category benchmarks.

The Formula

HOW BRI™ IS CALCULATED

BRI™ captures three dimensions traditional metrics miss: visibility frequency, product longevity, and brand retention — all relative to what you spend.

BRI™ Score

Impressions

I

Lifespan

L

Retention

R

Total Cost

C

Higher scores indicate greater brand exposure relative to investment. BRI™ is a comparative tool — absolute values matter less than ratios across products.

I

Daily Impressions

How many times a recipient's eyes land on your logo in a single day. Phones are checked 96× on average — screen cleaners capture a share of every glance.

L

Lifespan

How long the product stays in active use. A cleaner adhered to a device outlasts a pen by 18+ months. Longer lifespan multiplies total impressions compoundly.

R × C

Retention & Cost

Brand-recall rate divided by total spend. Screen cleaners achieve a cost-per-impression that undercuts every competing format by an order of magnitude.

HOW WE STACK UP

The Standard

WHY IMPRESSION COUNT
ALONE ISN'T ENOUGH

Most metrics count the moment, not the memory

Digital CPM tells you how many screens your ad appeared on. It doesn't tell you whether anyone looked, remembered, or felt anything. BRI™ incorporates retention — the probability the brand registers — not just exposure.

Lifespan is the hidden multiplier

A pen lasts 6 weeks. A screen cleaner stays on the device for 2 years. That's a 4× lifespan advantage compounded across 187 daily impressions. Total impressions diverge exponentially.

Cost-per-impression as a first-class metric

Marketing leaders allocate budgets on CPM. BRI™ brings that same discipline to physical promotional products, making it possible to compare a screen cleaner to a tote bag or a billboard on a single axis.

Brand visibility where attention already lives

People check their phones 96+ times per day. A branded screen cleaner captures a share of that attention organically, without buying media or fighting algorithms. BRI™ quantifies exactly how much.
