Understanding Share of Model: a vital metric for progressive marketers

How is your brand perceived by Large Language Models and why it matters

As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to advance, the role of large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Meta’s Llama 2, and Microsoft’s Copilot becomes increasingly significant. In a recent article with Adweek, Jack Smyth, Chief Solutions Officer at Jellyfish, discusses how these AI-powered chat programs are not only answering billions of search queries each day but also shaping perceptions of brands. 

The Importance of Share of Model

Forward-thinking marketers are recognizing the importance of tracking a new metric: Share of Model. Just as understanding market share is crucial, knowing how LLMs perceive your brand, compare it to competitors, and recommend products to customers is becoming essential.

Strategies for optimizing Share of Model

1. Review Creative Assets: every piece of content controlled by your brand outside of LLM training sets is an opportunity to advocate for your products. Analyze how LLMs perceive your content and optimize accordingly.
2. Regular Interaction: engage with LLMs regularly to understand what they have learned about your brand. Compare perceptions across different models to refine your messaging.
3. Optimize and Adapt: LLMs are constantly learning, so brands must continuously optimize their content to maintain a favorable share of model. Regularly review outputs and adjust strategies accordingly.

In an AI-driven world, understanding and influencing how LLMs perceive your brand is vital for success. By implementing strategies to optimize share of model, marketers can stay ahead in an evolving digital landscape.

As the influence of LLMs continues to grow, embracing these models and adapting marketing strategies accordingly will be essential for maintaining relevance and engaging with consumers effectively.
