A channel showing n/m could not be measured for that brand this edition, so neither side wins it. It is not a zero.

Method

Four channels, one number.

Each channel is scored out of 100 against the set below, on its own terms, then combined on fixed weights. Nothing in this edition passes 76 and nothing realistically will: a brand would have to lead every channel at once.

Four channels, each scored out of 100 on its own terms, then weighted and added. The dotted arc is the headroom nobody in the index has taken.

Add the four contributions together and you have the presence score. A brand strong on one channel only cannot climb far, which is the point. Where a channel could not be measured its weight is shared across the rest rather than counted as zero, so the percentages here always total 100. Contributions are rounded to one decimal place.

Not where you expected

Not on this board, or lower than you expected?

Every brand in furniture is scored on the same four channels, whether it engages with us or not. If you are not here, or not where you thought, a strategist can tell you which channel is costing you the most and whether it is worth closing.
