Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This research extends the theory of mimicry from the discipline of biological and natural sciences to the luxury brand context. Three brand mimicry scales namely Wicklerian-Eisnerian, Vavilovian and Pouyannian mimicry were developed and validated. A conceptual model is developed to test the influences of the three types of brand mimicry across four categories of luxury products. The findings provide academics, practitioners and policy makers with valuable insights into mimicry in the luxury brand industry.

The empirical data that lies behind this survey comes from field work between 1992 and 1995. This field work represents work I made myself as a sales-man for the company, Malmberg Original Water. The task was to implement the Malmberg mineral water brand on the restaurant market of the South-Swedish area. Our aim was to reach the upper-scale, premium market of restaurants. The mission was successfully completed, and at 1996 we had completed the position as the most exclusively positioned mineral water brand in Skåne (Southernmost Sweden). How could we fulfill this mission so fast, and with a very limited marketing budget (=0)?The secret key was that we managed to work and be in line with the values of our targeted customer group. We lived close to the customers and developed what was in line with their needs. This follows the research of Porter (1980) and Philipson (2011), serving the customer groups´ needs. Despite lack of money and budget from PR and promotion we made a large effort of serving and doing service towards our targeted customers.The thesis also focuses the target group´s importance for the construction of the brand identity. Strategic brand management-literature normally considers the target group taken-for-granted. Consumer research-literature, on the other hand, considers it as something vague and undefined. By applying a perspective of cultural values between the company, the brand and the target group it is possible to qualify the target group more than just refer to it as consumers or customers. The thesis also point to the conclusion not to consider brand identity as an independent entity, but dependent on the customers and the consumers. The consumers give birth to the brand. Finally since the target group is a group that is constantly set in motion, the brand also should reflect and represent change.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The purpose of the study was to find out how well companies succeed in trying to convey the identity of their trademarks to the consumers. The study was quantitative with a survey design. A sample of 109 respondents participated. Brand identity and brand image was the focus of the study and was measured in three companies; Odd Molly, Filippa K and Björn Borg. These three were selected partly because of their different profiles. One survey was sent to the companies and one survey was distributed to the consumers. The majority of the questions in the surveys were based on a model designed to measure brand identity and brand image and gap in between them. The study presents three central theories; Profile, Image and Identity, Brand Equity and The Corporate Personality Scale. The first two gives a background to the concept of the words. The Corporate Personality Scale was created and designed to assess image and identity and the gaps in between them. The results showed that there were gaps in between the brand identity and the brand image in all three of the selected companies. However there were also signs of coherence between them. The companies succeeded in some part, in their trying to convey the identity of their trademarks to the consumers. There were both clear gaps and clear coherence between Brand Identity and Brand Image. In some cases the image was graded higher than the identity and vice versa.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The purpose of this study was to conduct brand analyses on global brands in comparison to local retailers in India taking into account the regional differences and Indian consumers’ affinity towards global brands. The study has derived its conceptual framework from previous work done by Lee, Knight, and Kim (2008) and Bhardwaj, Kumar and Youn-Kyung (2010) with some added attributes. Quantitative data included a sample of 194 subjects where the sampling was conducted randomly as well as the involvement of convenient method to analyze the brands in real-world scenario. The survey involved the questionnaire which was utilized in previous researches and analyzed under the light of statistical treatment. The results confirm the importance of global brands (influence of European brand over American brand) over local brand in the Indian apparel consumer market.

"Varumärken - Varför har företag problem med dem? : En studie i vilka problem varumärkesbyråer identifierar som vanliga hos kundföretag och varför". Thesis, Uppsala universitet, Företagsekonomiska institutionen, 2012. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-173228.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Varumärken är viktiga för företags vara eller icke vara. Ett företag vars varumärke är dåligt eller döende kan gå samma öde till mötes som varumärket. Därför är det förvånande att, enligt en undersökning gjord av en varumärkesbyrå publicerad i en branschtidning, marknads- och informationschefer i Stockholm har dålig koll på sitt varumärke. I vår studie undersöks vilka problem som kundföretag oftast har när de söker hjälp av en varumärkesbyrå. Vi försöker sedan att identifiera varför, och möjliga lösningar för att lösa eller förminska dessa problem. För att kunna göra detta har vi genomfört fyra intervjuer med varumärkesbyråer i Stockholm, varav vissa är erkänt bland de bästa i Sverige. Resultatet är att de vanligaste problemen som varumärkesbyråerna identifierat egentligen inte har med varumärkena i sig att göra, utan mest är av organisatorisk och kunskapsmässig art. Exempelvis gör företag för många undersökningar utan att veta vad dessa ska leda till, varumärkets och företagets värderingar är relativt okända inom företaget, företaget har ett kortsiktigt synsätt, och marknadsföringsavdelningar har för bristfälligt samarbete med ledning samt lite makt att kunna styra nödvändiga förändringar. Vi menar att dessa problem kan lösas genom högre utbildning av dem som har hand om varumärket, brand managers, en generell kunskapshöjning inom marknadsföringsavdelningen vad gäller marknadsföring, och en mer integrerad marknadsföringsavdelning som tar plats med ledning för ökat samspel.

This doctoral thesis is about global brands under several perspectives, starting this study with and overview on the matter, followed by a 'step ahead' in the conceptualization of brand equity and brand value. As the global marketplace dynamically increases, there are theoretical and empirical challenges concerning the global brands that ask for more branding researches, trying to tune and to contextualize meanings and attributes. Thereafter, the thesis intends to provide a discussion about the industry and country-of-origin effects (and their interactions) on the brand value and the firm market value. Finally, the thesis offers an interesting comparison about the practitioners’ perspectives on the dimensions of global brands, the brand equity and the brand value, branding and marketing, including highlights on the brand internationalization process. The thesis offers a general approach on the extant literature in the first chapter, and a specific literature review for each other chapter.

Mkhize, Londiwe. "The role of self concept in understanding brand experience, brand attachment and brand loyalty in the consumption of premium clothing brands". Diss., University of Pretoria, 2010. http://hdl.handle.net/2263/24702.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The foremost argument of this research is that self concept is of fundamental influence in the choices consumers make when purchasing luxury clothing brands. The objective of this research was to determine the relationships between self concept and the experience, attachment and loyalty that consumers have towards brands. The research further sought to confirm the role that identity theory plays in brand consumption. Sixty-nine respondents were surveyed via an electronic tool to understand how they view the role that self concept plays in the experiences they encounter with clothing brands. Experts were also interviewed to gain deeper insights into brands and the importance that communication and branding strategies play in developing brands for consumption. Ttests and bivariate regression was performed in order to determine relationships amongst the constructs. The findings show that consumers place a relatively high importance on the brand experience and self concept constructs. Marketing and advertising companies have an enormous responsibility to ensure that the right messages are communicated to consumers in order to give consumer a positive brand experience. A robust brand strategy and Communications strategy plays a pivotal role in successful delivery of the essence and image of luxury brands. Identity and self concept theory are central to understanding consumer behaviour and consumption decisions. CopyrightDissertation (MBA)--University of Pretoria, 2010.

Thesis purpose: The thesis purpose is to examine the interrelationship of consumer and brand relation. The main objective is to research how consumers’ perception of brand personalization before and after seeing Adbusters subvertisement ads influences their relation to brands. Methodology: The thesis has deductive quantitative research approach, since it starts from theory to gain more understanding of the research area. The data is collected through an online questionnaire. Theoretical perspective: This study is based upon the general brand and branding definitions, with focus on brand personality, consumer perception and findings within the study of Adbusters. Empirical data: The study is investigated quantitatively. An online questionnaire was used to gather the empirical data. Conclusion: This study provides a broad overview about consumer perception of brand personalized commercial ads and what is their relation to brands after seeing Adbusters subvertisement ads. The research contributes to brand personalization theory and Adbusters studies and demonstrates that Adbusters influence on brand personalization depends on how strong the consumer-brand relationship is. However, it is also shown that consumers are inconsistent in their perception of brand personas and that relation to brands is highly brand-specific.

Ishikawa, Keizo. "BRAND DYNAMICS: The Effects of Brand Personality and Brand Experience on Emotional Brand Attachment". OpenSIUC, 2013. https://opensiuc.lib.siu.edu/dissertations/713.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Marketers have long observed, or at least assumed, that people buy certain products or brands as a means of expressing themselves. Marketing researchers have studied this phenomenon from the perspective of "self-congruity," assuming that a fit between the consumer's understanding of self (i.e., self-image) and the brand's image (or "brand personality") should drive the consumer's purchase behavior. This stream of research has vigorously explored the relations between the fit (i.e., "self-brand image congruity" or "self-congruity") and various behavioral outcomes. Nonetheless, this research stream has not succeeded in finding clear and strong evidence of the assumed effects on such a vital outcome as emotional brand attachment. Moreover, little research has directly explored the relations between self-congruity and emotional brand attachment. In this context, the main purpose of this dissertation is to shed light on this little understood relationship. Specifically, this research proposes that consumers' brand experience and self-congruity jointly create the strong driving force that directs consumers to an emotional attachment to the brands. Here, brand experience is conceptualized as the positive impact of brand-related stimuli or the "magnitude" of consumer responses to the stimuli that reflects a consumer's past interactions with brands or brand-related information. On the other hand, self-congruity can be understood as the "direction" that indicates which brand image a consumer wants to go with. The existing research has focused exclusively on the "direction." Taking the "magnitude" into account, this research aims to develop the theory that explains the assumed effects of self-congruity on emotional brand attachment as well as clearly demonstrate the effects, by proposing the interaction effects between self-congruity and brand experience. By synthesizing multiple research streams that have been recently growing, a comprehensive explanation was developed to explicate how consumers' perception of self-brand image fit and their past interactions with brands affect the formation of emotional brand attachment. In order to test the hypotheses that were derived from the theory, data were collected from 397 U.S. consumers using an online survey. The proposed interaction effects were clearly detected, along with the direct effects of self-congruity on emotional brand attachment, which the previous study had not been able to identify. The research revealed that brand experience boosts the positive effects of self-congruity on emotional brand attachment.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Background: In the XX Winter Olympics 2006 in Torino the Swedish Olympic Team succeeded by winning 14 medals. The best result that Sweden has ever made during a Winter Olympics. The happiness was shortly after mixed with disputes between the Swedish Olympic Committee and Swedish companies. There were companies who wrongly had used the trademark ‘OS’ in their marketing campaigns. The disputes happened because the use of the protected trademarks concerning the Olympic Games are reserved only to the Swedish Olympic Committee’s sponsors.
Title: Seeking Opinions Concerning… - the Swedish Olympic Committee and its Trademarks.
Problem: What attitudes do people hold towards the Swedish Olympic Committee after the XX Winter Olympics 2006?
Purpose: The study aims to get an understanding about if people’s attitudes towards the SOC and its trademarks have changed after what has been written and said in media after the XX Winter Games 2006. In order to reach this understanding I will look at people’s knowledge about the SOC’s trademark, their prior knowledge and thoughts and finally their prior knowledge about the ‘Olympic pizza’.
Theory: By going from an initial description of the factors that make up a good brand and the different meanings to the word ‘brand’, the reader is taken through different steps to finally in the end see how attitudes are created.
Method: The study was done with a quantitative method through questionnaires, looking at the problem from the perspective of the Committee who are the ones affected by the results of the study. The collection of data was done through a non-random convenience selection in the community of Storuman with a total number of 76 respondents. Further, the study has a positivistic view and a deductive approach.
Result: The results were that the respondents’ first thought about the Swedish Olympic Committee was mostly indifferent, it seems like they did not have an opinion. Digging deeper it seems like after what has happened in the media the respondents’ attitudes have changed. There was not a big difference however in the number of people who had had an attitude change after the ‘Olympic pizza’ story compared to those who had not. The ones who had experienced attitude changes had had them towards the negative side.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Esta tesis doctoral tiene como objetivo dar respuesta a tres preguntas principales de investigación: RQ (1) ¿Cuáles son los antecedentes que aumentan la probabilidad de compra de marca local en mercados emergentes (EMS), existen factores específicos para las marcas de alimentos y las marcas de prendas de vestir? RQ (2) ¿Cómo se pueden clasificar las marcas presentes en el mercado en Global, Local y Glocal con base en las percepciones del consumidor, son los resultados de estas categorizaciones basadas en el consumidor similares a las categorizaciones que están basadas en criterios objetivos? RQ (3) ¿Es la relación entre los antecedentes previamente identificados y la probabilidad de compra de marca similar para las marcas globales, locales y glocales que compiten en la misma categoría, o son diferentes para cada tipo de marca? Se ha identificado que existe un vacío en la literatura con respecto a estas preguntas y este trabajo de investigación tiene como objetivo aportar conocimientos sobre estas relaciones.
El primer ensayo examina los antecedentes en relación con la probabilidad de compra de marca para las marcas locales. El segundo ensayo examina cómo la categorización de marcas basada en las percepciones de los consumidores difiere de las categorizaciones estándar que se encuentran en la literatura, y el tercer ensayo examina cómo estos antecedentes influyen positivamente en la probabilidad de compra de la marca, en los diferentes tipos de marcas, y si hay un factor con el rol de moderador en estas relaciones.
Los resultados de estos tres ensayos sugieren: en el estudio 1 del primer ensayo, que tres factores influyen positivamente la probabilidad de compra de las marcas locales de alimentos y también muestran que para los consumidores más jóvenes, existe un factor adicional. En el estudio 2 del primer ensayo, cinco factores están positivamente relacionados con probabilidad de compra de las marcas de ropa locales. El ensayo 2, ofrece una categorización de algunas marcas líderes que se venden en el mercado mexicano, en global, local y glocal, basadas en la perspectiva del consumidor. Los hallazgos sugieren que existen diferencias relevantes entre los resultados de la categorización de marcas basada en la percepción del consumidor y la categorización de marcas basada en enfoques objetivos tradicionales encontrados en la literatura. En el ensayo 3, algunos antecedentes se relacionan positivamente con la probabilidad de compra de la marca, y son relevantes para todas las categorías de marcas. Nuestros resultados sugieren que el tipo de marca modera algunas de estas relaciones.
Todos estos estudios se llevaron a cabo entre consumidores mexicanos y los datos fueron analizados con pruebas estadísticas y ecuaciones estructurales.
Esta investigación contribuye al conocimiento académico actual poniendo en relieve las siguientes áreas: 1, desarrolla y prueba un modelo integral de los antecedentes de la probabilidad de compra de marca que combina varias teorías y corrientes de investigación. 2, desarrolla una tipología para medir cuatro tipos de marcas, ampliando la teoría de Steenkamp de De Jong al contexto del estudio de marcas.
3, desarrolla y prueba hipótesis del papel moderador del tipo de marca y sus efectos en la relación de estos antecedentes y la probabilidad de compra de la marca.
Todo lo anterior se llevó a cabo dentro de un contexto de mercados emergentes. Además, nuestro trabajo de investigación contribuye al ámbito de la gestión, proporcionando conocimientos adicionales para la gerencia de marca en los mercados emergentes, que les permiten desarrollar estrategias de marca y de comercialización sostenibles, buscando tener éxito en un entorno globalmente competitivo.This doctoral dissertation aims to address three main Research Questions: RQ (1) What are the antecedents that enhance local brand purchase likelihood in emerging markets (EMs), and are there specific factors for food and clothing brands? RQ (2) How can brands present in the market be classified into Global, Local and Glocal based on consumer perceptions, and are the results of these consumer-based categorisations similar to the categorisations based on objective criteria? RQ (3) Is the relationship between previously-identified brand antecedents and brand-purchase likelihood similar for global, local and glocal brands competing in the same category, or different for each type of brand? A gap in the literature has been identified regarding these questions and this research work aims to provide insights into these relationships. The first essay examines the antecedents of the brand purchase likelihood for local brands. The second essay examines how consumer perceptions of brand categorisation differ from the standard categorisations found in the literature, and the third essay examines how these antecedents positively influence the brand purchase likelihood of the different types of brands, and if there is a moderating role in these relationships. The findings of these three essays suggest the following: in study 1 of essay 1, three factors positively influence local food-brand purchase likelihood and also show that, for younger consumers, an additional factor is present. In study 2 of essay 1, five factors are positively related with local clothing-brand purchase likelihood. Essay 2 provides a categorisation of some leading brands sold in the Mexican market into global, local and glocal, based on consumer perspective. The findings suggest that there are relevant differences in the results of this categorisation of brands vs. the traditional objective approaches found in the literature. In essay 3 some antecedents are positively related with brand purchase likelihood, and, in addition, relevant to all brand categories. Our results suggest that the type of brand moderates some of these relationships. All these surveys were conducted among Mexican consumers and data analysed with statistical tests and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). Our research work contributes to the current academic body of knowledge by highlighting the following areas:1, by combining theories from different streams to develop and test a comprehensive model of drivers of brand purchase likelihood. 2, by developing a typology to measure four types of brands by extending Steenkamp and De Jong’s theory to the branding context. 3, by hypothesising and testing the moderating role of brand type on the effects of these theoretically-grounded drivers of purchase likelihood. All of the above takes place within an emerging-market context. In addition, our research work contributes to the field of management by providing additional insight for brand-managers in emerging markets in the development of sustainable branding and marketing strategies, in order to help them succeed in a globally competitive environment.

A number of discussions have taken place in the recent decade on how to build a successful brand in an increasingly globalised market, including in the emerging markets. China as an attractive emerging market has gained a lot of researchers to conduct research from the macro- or micro-view to discuss the branding issues. Among these discussions, however, there are big gaps for the branding issue in terms of the corporate image transferring to product brand performance, and the influence of corporate brands vis-á-vis product brands on consumer behaviours. Meanwhile, joint ventures as the most popular form for foreign investment in China, has not received sufficient research toward branding issues, presenting another valuable literature gap to fulfil.Thesis (PhD Doctorate)

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The power of brands like Coke, Levi's and Nike defies conventional understanding. How do such strong brands get created? What are the sources of their phenomenal strength? The traditional thinking reflected in the brand literature traces the sources of brand strength to the consumer's cognitive knowledge of brand's functional and image attributes, and other associations linked to the brand. I draw upon past research in marketing and social psychology to propose a user-centered view of brand strength. I suggest that loyal consumers actively create 'brandspaces' based on personal, social and cultural factors. These brand knowledge structures may be more insular since they are self generated and anchored in the personal and social self of the user. In Essay 1 of this dissertation, I take the user-centered approach to propose a method for mapping and measuring consumer-based brand equity. I developed a structural model for the sneakers product category with five consumer-based sources of brand equity ('functional attributes','brand image','appeal', 'self-brand relationship', and 'perceived popularity') as independent variables, and study their impact on a four indicator measure of brand equity. In Essay 2, I investigate the role of self-brand relationship schema in promoting insularity of strong brands. I hypothesize that strong brand users, who have high self-brand relationship, suppress or discount negative brand information, as compared to strong users who have low self-brand relationship. Experimental results confirm this central hypothesis. This study clearly shows the centrality of self-brand relationship in promoting brand insularity and brand strength.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
As globalization influences today’s world markets, many brands are becoming international and global. When a brand is in an international market it creates an opportunity for perceived brand origin to influence the consumers. Brand origin effect refers to the different ways that the perceived origin of a brand influences the consumers, for example, the consumer brand equity or purchase behaviour. The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate brand origins effect on brand image and brand awareness. There has been research on this in the past; however, only few of them have focused on emerging markets. Therefore, we will investigate the brand origin effect in emerging markets. The study is performed in Ecuador, and the data is collected through structured interviews within the target population. The dissertation was done in collaboration with the Swedish company Husqvarna. Therefore, it was the brand awareness and image of Husqvarna in particular that was studied. The results of this dissertation indicate that there are relationships between the variables brand origin, brand image and brand awareness. First of all, there were indications that consumers in emerging markets prefer brands from developed countries. The second relationship that the results indicate is that a more positive image of perceived brand origin means a more positive image of brand image. The last relationship is that a more positive image of perceived brand origin, leads to a higher sense of brand awareness. However, it is necessary to mention that none of these relationships could be proven to be significant through statistical testing. As a result of this, this dissertation provides a good foundation for future research where the relationships should be further studied.

Iyer, Pramod P. "Brand Management Capability and Brand Performance". Thesis, University of North Texas, 2016. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc862750/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Brands are intangible assets that provide companies with the potential to extract higher rents or prices from customers. However, only few organizations are able to build and sustain brands over a long period of time. Brand management capability - the organization's ability to build and sustain brands becomes important for achieving sustainable competitive advantage. Despite the importance of brand management capability to organizations, majority of the brand management literature has primarily focused on the consumer perspective of brands. This gap in knowledge about the components of brand management capability impedes firms from replicating brand successes, and makes them reliant on brand managers. More recently, there have been multiple calls in literature to identify marketing-related organizational capabilities, which can provide organizations with a sustainable competitive advantage. The focus on developing marketing-based capabilities comes at a time when marketing is losing its influence in organizations. To this end, the current dissertation uses organizational capability theory and literature on brand management to identify the primary resource (intellectual capital comprising of structural, human, and relational capital), organizational culture type (clan, adhocracy, hierarchy, and market), and processes (strategic brand management, internal branding, and market information processes comprising of information acquisition, information transmission, conceptual utilization, and instrument utilization), that constitute the brand management capability. This dissertation also examines the association among various components of brand management capability and brand performance. A survey-based technique was used to gather data from individuals responsible for managing brands. The data was analyzed using PLS-SEM. The results indicate that human capital, relational capital, market and hierarchy culture types, internal branding, strategic brand management, and instrument utilization are positively associated with brand performance. Structural capital, clan and adhocracy culture types, information acquisition, information transmission, and conceptual utilization are not associated with brand performance. From a research standpoint, this dissertation contributes to the extant literature by identifying the resources, organizational culture, and processes that constitute the brand management capability. In addition to the extant brand management processes (internal branding and strategic brand management), a third set of processes identified in this dissertation (market information processes) is argued to be a critical component for successfully managing brands in organizations. This dissertation also provides empirical support for the role of marketing-based capabilities in determining organizational value, which has been debated in recent literature. Finally, this research addresses the calls for exploring marketing-based capabilities, especially at a time when marketing as a function is losing its influence in academia and organizations. From a managerial standpoint, this dissertation provides an outline for organizations seeking to build brand management capability. In addition to developing intellectual capital and brand management processes, firms need to create the right kind of organizational culture that is needed for brand management capability. This is consistent with the movement towards brands being managed with a strategic perspective.

Background Keller (2009) states that brand equity and the crucial intangiblevalue a brand brings to organizations is perhaps one of the most important marketing topics discussed in recent years. As the competitive market and branding environment for companies are fierce, the sport industry has gradually become more competitive and professional in many aspects of their operations as well. Researchers have gone to the extent of claiming that a brand is the most important asset of a sports team and that the brand provides direction and meaning for sports associations as well as for their followers. Still, market studies have indicated that sport associations often lack appropriate branding strategies and particularly for teams below the professional level, research have been limited in these areas. Purpose The purpose of this thesis is to examine what strategies and actions lower level Swedish ice hockey teams use in order to create and strengthen their brand. Method A hermeneutic view and inductive approach have been applied for this thesis. The purpose and research questions of this thesis have been answered with the help of seven qualitative, semistructured in-depth interviews with lower level sport club managers. Frame of reference Theory is based on two approaches to how teams can build and leverage their brand. While a model by Richelieu (2003) illustrates a strategic construction of the sports brand, the Spectatorbased brand equity model by Ross (2006) is more concerned with how controllable and uncontrollable factors contributes to the two main components of spectator based brand equity, namely brand awareness and brand associations. Conclusions The conclusion withholds the answer to the four research questions and purpose designed for this thesis. The findings indicate that teams are starting to realize the importance of a strong brand, particular to meet increased customer expectations for the game experience are considered important to create positive brand associations. An important finding have been the lack of communication and interaction teams seem to have with their customers in order to establish a clear brand identity and position in the market. The findings also indicate some characteristics particular to the lower level setting e.g. the dependence on volunteer workers and how the lack of long-term financial responsibility have impacted the management and development of a strong brand.

During the past two decades something fundamental has happened to the relationship between manufacturers and distributor organisations in many European countries. Within a number of product markets, distributors have launched their own products, forcing manufacturing companies to compete with shelf space owners in addition to the "traditional" competition with other manufacturers. Theoretical and empirical findings regarding Distributor Own Brands (DOB’S) offer us a number of explanations of the differences between national markets and product categories in terms of DOB penetration. However, much of this literature is deterministic in its approach: DOB penetration is often seen as a direct consequence of different market conditions, rather than as the result of strategy processes involving a number of decision-makers and their perceptions of market-related and organisational factors.This study investigates how an array of organisational and market related factors are perceived by distributor organisations, and how this is expressed in the organisations’ own brand strategies. To investigate this research problem, a theoretical framework that explicitly takes distributor own brand strategy into consideration when examining proposed determinants of DOB penetration is presented. The empirical study is mainly based on interviews with decision-makers within the central organisations of the two largest distributors within Swedish fmcg distribution: the ICA federation and the consumer co-operation KF.Diss.

Abstract:
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to learn how brand heritage and retro brands can help HQM strengthen their brand identity.
Background: Companies with a long history have a strategic choice to make re-garding the use of their heritage in marketing communications. Such companies also enjoy a history of interesting products, for which some may exist the possibility for a retro relaunch. Husqvarna is such a company, which made it interesting to find out how these two strategic tools can or cannot strengthen the studied company‘s brand identity.
Method: Through an inductive and exploratory case study with interviews of the personnel at Husqvarna Motorcycles, Italy, three theoretical areas emerged to be researched, brand identity, brand heritage and retro brands. The latter two required the help of real life examples for better understanding. The analysis had a deductive approach where the studied theory was applied to the companies, and conclu-sions were drawn from the accumulated knowledge to help streng-then the brand identity of Husqvarna Motorcycles.
Conclusions: HQM is a brand with heritage in the process of taking a strategic de-cision to use its heritage as a tool to strengthen the brand identity, hence on the way to become a heritage brand in the true meaning of the definition. As the oldest brand on the market, HQM can use its heritage to differentiate itself from the competition, creating uni-queness impossible to copy. A retro product can be a useful vehicle to carry the newly uncovered heritage to surface. With the help of theory and a real life example, a contender within the historical company product portfolio was recognized. Finally, the band identi-ty as stated by HQM was redefined according to the findings.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The times of following a ‘one brand – one product’ strategy have long past. Nowadays, firms are increasingly recognizing the true value of their brands and are starting to use these as a source of competitive advantage. By introducing new products under an existing brand name, firms leverage the power of their brands and thus, aim at benefiting from the success of the parent brand. Brands are amongst the most valuable assets owned by a company, which encourages them to engage in brand extensions. The authors mainly distinguish between three brand extension strategy types: line extension, vertical line extension and category extension. Previous quantitative studies have identified that particularly brand equity and brand identity stand out as significantly influencing brand extension strategies. Therefore, this qualitative case study further explores how these two branding constructs affect firms’ brand extension decisions. While most past studies investigated the potential success of fictitious brands, this study performs qualitative interviews with brand and product managers of eight real case firms operating in the FMCG industry in Germany. The empirical data indicates that the pressure to innovate rises, as more and more new extension products are being introduced to the market in recent years. Nevertheless, the majority of firms opt for line extension strategies, while only few dare to enter a further distanced market segment. Hence, the condition of a “fit” between the parent brand and extension product is mostly accounted for. The study further suggests that a brand without strong brand equity will not be able to perform brand extensions at any level. However, even if brands do benefit from strong brand equity, firms may adopt divergent strategies, which is mainly dependent on the brand’s identity. The research results show that narrowly defined brands, predominantly distinguishable by concrete product features and physical facets, restrict the firms’ capability to extend a brand beyond its original product line. Contrarily, brands with a more abstract or value based identity provide more opportunities to stretch further from the parent brand. An emotional brand that succeeds in building a relationship to the customer, in representing a distinct personality or telling a story, is able to extend to a new product category. The study concludes that certain brands may be under-exploited, as they do not leverage their high equity and identity capabilities in terms of extending the brand to a further distanced market segment. As a result of the findings, two Brand Extension Strategy Matrices are constructed, setting the brand identity abstraction level (product or value based identity) into relation to (1) brand equity and (2) the identity “fit” of an extension product and the parent brand. Each of these two matrices explains the strategic consequences of a given set of brand equity and brand identity.

Magister Commercii - MComThe focus of branding is often externally focused, yet it is the employees through their direct interaction with the brand, that can make or break the brand promise. Despite the important role of employees in building the brand, they are often overlooked in brand building strategies. The purpose of the study was to test the effect of internal brand management on brand commitment and brand trust in a government organisation. Front-line employees of the South African Post Office, a state-owned organisation in South Africa was selected to collect the data using convenience sampling. Cronbach Alpha and content validity was used to test the reliability and validity of the measurement instrument. The data was not normally distributed and non-parametric tests were performed during data analysis. Descriptive statistics was used to describe the basic characteristics of the respondents and the correlation coefficient (Rho) was used to test the relationships between variables. All three hypotheses were accepted. The results are consistent with previous research, however, new developments are emerging. For front-line employees to commit to the brand, they must trust the brand, which in turn is created through brand identity. Negative external communication influences the ability of front-line employees to deliver the expected brand promise. Importantly, the role of top management in fostering internal brand management cannot be overlooked.

Much previous research has studied high brand equity acquiring high brand equity or high brand equity acquiring low brand equity. However, very little research has been conducted to understand how that low brand equity acquiring high brand equity changes the low brand equity especially in China. This paper is on the case of Geely Group acquiring Volvo Car which was a typical acquisition of a high brand equity company by a low brand equity company. The aim of the paper is to verify whether this type of acquisition could increase the acquirer’s brand equity evaluated by consumers. This paper selects two brand strategies, ‘the house of brands strategy’ and ‘the endorsed brand strategy’, as the study objects of post-acquisition brand integration, and attempts to find the differences on consumers’ expectations and what is better suited for the new joint company. Therefore, a survey research strategy was used in this paper. A conceptual framework which included brand loyalty and perceived quality was developed from a review of the existing literature. Samples of data collected from Chinese consumers have been analyzed for the changes of consumers’ evaluation on the brand equity of Geely after its successful acquisition. Our research result proved that, a low brand equity company could enhance its brand value through acquiring an internationally known brand. After the acquisition, no matter what brand strategy applied, consumers had a more positive attitude towards the brand. The conclusion reached was that firms should be careful to choose an acquisition strategy by considering its strengths. But when faced with a decision of acquisition, the most important thing is to focus on the final success of the acquisition, while the brand integration strategy might be adjusted flexibly.

This thesis is an investigation of brand rivalry between two competing brands. The number of Smartphone users in Canada is rising and is not expected to slow anytime soon. Two major Smartphone brands have emerged as competing brands in this product category: Samsung and Apple. When two strong companies emerge brand rivalry can manifest. Brand rivalry seems to be under studied in the consumer behaviour literature, yet is common amongst consumers. Current literature pertaining to brand rivalry focuses primarily on the ‘dark’ side of this concept, manly oppositional brand loyalty and brand rivalry. Utilizing focus groups, this study gains a more holistic view of the interaction between opposite brand community members. The findings extend the existing literature by offering evidence of the ‘lighter’ side to brand rivalry.

Dissertação de mestrado em Marketing, apresentada à Faculdade de Economia da Universidade de Coimbra, sob a orientação de Arnaldo Matos Coelho.In a world of global competition that we are living nowadays, brands are each time more used by companies as a strategy to create value and differentiation and this way to be one step ahead of their rivals. A "brand" is the result of the recognition and the personal attachment that forms in the hearts and minds of the customers through their accumulated experience with that “brand”. These experiences contribute to increased consumer trust and loyalty and allow building strong relationships with the “brand”. By this way, “brands” promote the increase of shareholder value and establish a long-term advantage in the marketplace for organisations. Companies recognise that strong brands are and have been historically associated with accelerated revenue growth and improved returns to shareholders. That is why, each time more organisations focus their strategies on building powerful brands as they represent competitive advantage and they are a key success factor in creating value to the customer and at the same time value to the company. In this regard, this study intends to show how effective brand strategy and brand communication contribute to build brand equity and consequently create a strong brand. For this purpose, the case study of Navigator was chosen, being a good example to show how the brand has been managed to become a powerful brand in the premium office paper segment.

Este estudo destaca o impacto da frescura da marca no engajamento da marca nas redes
sociais das marcas MOCHE-Yorn-WTF (operadoras de telecomunicações para jovens).
Analisando a literatura, notamos que há muitas contribuições sobre o engajamento da marca
nas redes sociais, enquanto poucas pesquisas são focadas na frescura da marca. Assim, optou-se por aprofundar a análise do impacto supramencionado, tendo o amor / satisfação com a marca
como mediadores.
No universo digital, as redes sociais oferecem aos seus utilizadores uma variedade de novas
formas de comunicarem e é exatamente esse potencial que oferece uma oportunidade
significativa para as empresas e suas marcas restabelecerem as comunicações.
Os resultados de um questionário com 399 participantes ajudam-nos a discutir a análise e a
tirar conclusões. Portanto, foi possível verificar que a frescura da marca está positivamente
relacionada com o amor / satisfação com a marca, que o engajamento da marca nas redes sociais
está positivamente relacionado com o amor / satisfação com a marca e que, consequentemente,
a frescura da marca está positivamente relacionada com o engajamento da marca nas redes
sociais. Mas é importante mencionar que nem todas as dimensões da frescura da marca têm
impacto nos restantes constructos. Resumindo, apenas as dimensões "útil", "popular",
"subcultural" e "icónica" estão positivamente relacionadas com o amor à marca. Apenas as
dimensões "útil", "original", "autêntico" e "popular" estão positivamente relacionadas à
satisfação com a marca. E apenas as dimensões "rebelde", "status elevado", "subcultural" e
"icónica" estão positivamente relacionadas com o engajamento da marca nas redes sociais.This study highlights the impact of brand coolness on social media brand engagement of brands MOCHE, Yorn and WTF (telecommunications operators for the young target). Analyzing the literature, we note that there are many contributions on social media brand engagement, while little research is focused on brand coolness. Thus, it was decided to deepen the analysis of the impact mentioned above with brand love and brand satisfaction as mediators of this impact. On digital universe, social media offers its users a variety of new ways to communicate with each other and it is precisely this potential that offers a significant opportunity for companies and their brands to re-establish their communications. Results of a survey with 399 participants help us to discuss the analysis and to get some conclusions. Therefore, it was possible to verify that brand coolness is positively related with brand love and brand satisfaction, that social media brand engagement is positively related with brand love and brand satisfaction, and that consequently brand coolness is positively related with social media brand engagement. But it is important to mention that not all dimensions of brand coolness have an impact on other constructs. Summing up, only "useful", "popular", "subcultural" and "iconic" dimensions are positively related with brand love. Only the dimensions "useful", "original", "authentic" and "popular" are positively related with brand satisfaction. And only "rebellious", "high status", "subcultural" and "iconic" dimensions are positively related with social media brand engagement.

Over the last decade, brand loyalty is widely used in order to increase the business performance. However, solely a strong brand is insufficient for fierce markets, building a long term relationship is essential. A literature review showed that brand experience, brand personality and brand relationship quality are important variables for brand loyalty. Thus, this research develops a framework that intends to find out the roles of brand experience, brand personality, brand relationship quality on brand loyalty in context of restaurant chains (i.e. McDonald and Din Tai Fung). Data collected from 280 Malaysian respondents and 278 Taiwanese respondents via street or mall intercept surveys conducted in Kuala Lumpur and Taipei. After collecting the data, SPSS is employed to exam the reliability and factor loading of those constructs. Afterwards, LISREL is used to run Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Model (SEM) for comprehension of the effect of the research model. The hypotheses applied to different samples will lead to different results from the cultural difference and other issues. Lastly, managerial implications, research limitations and suggestions for future research are discussed

Internet and related technologies have dramatically changed the landscape of the global branding. New corporate brands (online brands) such as Amazon.com, Yahoo!, Google, eBay, Facebook have arisen in the new digital age and command immense brand equity, putting them at the top of many traditional offline companies. Online brands emerge as the result of advancements in information and communication technologies. This study examined the congruence between self-concept and brand personality and its effect on emotional brand attachment in the online branding environment. The five brand personalities (sincerity, excitement, competence, sophistication, and ruggedness) adopted from prior research were used as moderating variables. The self-congruence for consumers’ emotional brand attachment can be different by brands’ different brand personalities. The results show that brands with “sincerity”, “excitement”, or “competence” traits may have the stronger impact of actual self-congruence on emotional brand attachment than of ideal self-congruence on emotional brand attachment. On the contrary, brands with “sophistication” and “ruggedness” traits may have the impact of ideal self-congruence on emotional brand attachment be slightly weaker than the impact of actual self-congruence on emotional brand attachment.

In todays highly competitive market, companies are often adopting various brand development strategies to consolidate their strengths and create better organizational performance in order to create higher brand values. In many brand strategy thinking, customer orientation and competitor orientation are two important directions. In addition, the marketing literature also proposes brand strategy combined with corporate social responsibility to enhance brand competitiveness and brand value. This research topic has received much attention in recent years. However, the past literature mostly focuses on the direct influence of customer orientation, competitor orientation and corporate social responsibility investment on business performance, while ignoring its behind-the-scenes mechanism. This study believes that this actually requires brand value to affect business performance. This study collects non-structural and structural secondary data for data analysis and hypothesis verification, and selects 59 corporate brands that have been selected to enter the top 100 brands in China in the past three years (2015-2017). Using the non-structural texts of the annual report to measure customer orientation, competitor orientation and corporate social responsibility, and to measure the brand value by BRANDZ brand evaluation, and finally evaluate the overall performance of the company by the net rate of return. This study finds that customer orientation can positively enhance brand value, but the input of competitors and corporate social responsibility is not significant for enhancing brand value. Brand value can positively improve business performance. Therefore, this study provides reference value for the academic and practical application of brand management for domestic and foreign scholars and practitioners.

Main research purposes were shown below. First, the relationship among holistic experiences, brand affect, and brand equity dimensions were examined. Second, the effectiveness of experience strategies was examined. Third, the efficiency of experience strategies was examined. The research brand was McDonald’s, an experience stager since September 2003. We physically surveyed 313 customers in 17 chain stores of McDonald’s. Purposive sampling was performed. Analytical method was SEM. Key research findings were as follows. First, unlike atmospherics context, it is deficient to explain the responses of customers under cognition-emotion or emotion-cognition intervening mechanisms alone in the experience context. More intervening mechanisms should be included such as hierarchy-of-effect model in our study. Second, strategies appealed to the brand affect directly had the larger effectiveness than those appealed to the cognitive dimensions of brand, and then brand affect. Third, to attain efficiency, relate experiences ranked first and should be assigned the most resource while sense experiences ranked the least. Core managerial implication was to urge experience managers holistically planning their experience strategies to attain the experiential goal effectively and efficiently.
