Our Intelligence, Your Unrivaled Edge
The Value of a Strong Reputation
A company’s reputation is an intangible asset that can have a profound implication on the success of the business. If reputation hinges on meeting the expectations of stakeholders, research to understand these expectations is the most important endeavor a company can take to protect and build reputation.
What Defines a Company’s Reputation Is Unique, Not Universal
Unlike measurement models with one-size-fits-all attributes of reputation, APCO’s bespoke reputation research approach captures the unique issues and stakeholder expectations most important to your company’s reputation. With actionability built into the methodology, our granular and strategic assessment allows companies to pinpoint the specific action that must be taken to grow reputation.

Our Reputation Intelligence Conquers Complexity
- Build stronger relationships with stakeholders
We do this by focusing on the company’s reputation strengths and opportunities. - Seize the proactive opportunities to grow reputation
Reputation can’t be built or strengthened on the set of issues you are against, rather it’s about finding the platform of what you are for – these are the opportunities to seize. - Anticipate the future
It’s not just about how you’re viewed today, but anticipating and identifying the issues that will matter tomorrow and how to condition that environment to your advantage.
