brand reputation
Company's public standing
Brand reputation is the collective perception of a company or product in the minds of consumers, based on past experiences, marketing, and public discourse.
A strong brand reputation builds customer loyalty and commands premium pricing; a damaged one can take years to repair.
Companies guard their brand reputation carefully: The recall was handled quickly to protect brand reputation.
Unlike brand image, which companies craft deliberately, brand reputation emerges from how people actually talk about and experience the brand.
