Download or read book Managing Brand Equity written by David A. Aaker and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most important assets of any business are intangible: its company name, brands, symbols, and slogans, and their underlying associations, perceived quality, name awareness, customer base, and proprietary resources such as patents, trademarks, and channel relationships. These assets, which comprise brand equity, are a primary source of competitive advantage and future earnings, contends David Aaker, a national authority on branding. Yet, research shows that managers cannot identify with confidence their brand associations, levels of consumer awareness, or degree of customer loyalty. Moreover in the last decade, managers desperate for short-term financial results have often unwittingly damaged their brands through price promotions and unwise brand extensions, causing irreversible deterioration of the value of the brand name. Although several companies, such as Canada Dry and Colgate-Palmolive, have recently created an equity management position to be guardian of the value of brand names, far too few managers, Aaker concludes, really understand the concept of brand equity and how it must be implemented. In a fascinating and insightful examination of the phenomenon of brand equity, Aaker provides a clear and well-defined structure of the relationship between a brand and its symbol and slogan, as well as each of the five underlying assets, which will clarify for managers exactly how brand equity does contribute value. The author opens each chapter with a historical analysis of either the success or failure of a particular company's attempt at building brand equity: the fascinating Ivory soap story; the transformation of Datsun to Nissan; the decline of Schlitz beer; the making of the Ford Taurus; and others. Finally, citing examples from many other companies, Aaker shows how to avoid the temptation to place short-term performance before the health of the brand and, instead, to manage brands strategically by creating, developing, and exploiting each of the five assets in turn

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Due to the fact that brand equity has received significant research attention, brand image in the customer-based brand equity framework, has been recognized as an important concept in marketing and consumer behavior research. While an increasing number of studies have focused on conceptualizing brand image, empirical research on brand image in the restaurant industry has been consistently criticized for deficiencies of theoretical grounding and conceptual rigor. Therefore, there is an urgent need to investigate ways in which brand image can be empirically measured so that researchers can effectively analyze the key variables related to it. The current study attempted to bridge this existing gap by developing an effective brand image measurement and model. Grounded in the foundation of marketing and hospitality literature as well Keller's customer-based brand equity framework, this study developed a conceptual model that explains the relationships between the antecedents and consequences of brand image. The objectives of this research are: 1) to develop reliable and valid scales to measure brand image in a restaurant context; 2) to propose an integrated model of the causal relationship between the antecedents and consequences of brand image, by relying on Keller's customer-based brand equity framework. Based on the proposed model, nine hypotheses were developed with six latent variables. Through focus group interviews and a pretest, the measurements were refined and the questionnaire used for the main study was developed. Data was analyzed using the 417 surveys. A Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) in AMOS 17.0 were employed to evaluate the measurement model, to measure the model fitness of data and to test the research hypotheses and relationships among the latent constructs. The results from the main study revealed a significant relationship between mostly all constructs in the model except the relationship between brand image and attitudinal brand loyalty. The findings clearly showed the primary effect of brand awareness and brand familiarity as the antecedents to brand image. It was concluded that brand awareness drivers brand image, customer satisfaction, brand trust and attitudinal brand loyalty. Moreover, the results indicated the critical mediating effect of brand image between its antecedents and consequences. The study also highlighted the importance of customer satisfaction and trust in order to establishing a customer's attitudinal brand loyalty. From a theoretical perspective, this study developed a brand image scale and proposed an integrated model of brand image in customer-based brand equity framework in a casual dining restaurant context. The study also provides several managerial implications for chain restaurant managers and marketers by stressing the importance of brand image in the hospitality industry with a view to enhancing the marketers' understanding of the factors that may dilute or enhance brand image and thereby provide insights into brand equity management.

Download or read book Brand Gender written by Theo Lieven and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-06 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores ways to drive and increase a brand’s most important property, its equity. Focussing on gender, the author analyses the impact of assigning personalities and characteristics to products and how this can affect the management of brands on a global scale. Using detailed examples, the author argues that brands with low masculine and feminine characteristics have the lowest equity, whilst brands with both high feminine and masculine characteristics are shown to have the strongest equity. Including notions of androgyny in brands, this significant study reveals the different factors which can affect a brand being perceived as either masculine or feminine. Aiming to develop a comprehensive theory and provide practitioners with a guide to increasing the equity of their brands, this controversial and pioneering book lays the foundation for creating a global brand personality model.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this long-awaited book from the world’s premier brand expert and author of the seminal work Building Strong Brands, David Aaker shows managers how to construct a brand portfolio strategy that will support a company’s business strategy and create relevance, differentiation, energy, leverage, and clarity. Building on case studies of world-class brands such as Dell, Disney, Microsoft, Sony, Dove, Intel, CitiGroup, and PowerBar, Aaker demonstrates how powerful, cohesive brand strategies have enabled managers to revitalize brands, support business growth, and create discipline in confused, bloated portfolios of master brands, subbrands, endorser brands, cobrands, and brand extensions. Renowned brand guru Aaker demonstrates that assuring that each brand in the portfolio has a clear role and actively reinforces and supports the other portfolio brands will profoundly affect the firm’s profitability. Brand Portfolio Strategy is required reading not only for brand managers but for all managers with bottom-line responsibility to their shareholders.

Download or read book New Perspectives in Partial Least Squares and Related Methods written by Herve Abdi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-17 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Perspectives in Partial Least Squares and Related Methods shares original, peer-reviewed research from presentations during the 2012 partial least squares methods meeting (PLS 2012). This was the 7th meeting in the series of PLS conferences and the first to take place in the USA. PLS is an abbreviation for Partial Least Squares and is also sometimes expanded as projection to latent structures. This is an approach for modeling relations between data matrices of different types of variables measured on the same set of objects. The twenty-two papers in this volume, which include three invited contributions from our keynote speakers, provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of the most advanced research related to PLS and related methods. Prominent scientists from around the world took part in PLS 2012 and their contributions covered the multiple dimensions of the partial least squares-based methods. These exciting theoretical developments ranged from partial least squares regression and correlation, component based path modeling to regularized regression and subspace visualization. In following the tradition of the six previous PLS meetings, these contributions also included a large variety of PLS approaches such as PLS metamodels, variable selection, sparse PLS regression, distance based PLS, significance vs. reliability, and non-linear PLS. Finally, these contributions applied PLS methods to data originating from the traditional econometric/economic data to genomics data, brain images, information systems, epidemiology, and chemical spectroscopy. Such a broad and comprehensive volume will also encourage new uses of PLS models in work by researchers and students in many fields.

Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Company formation, Business Plans, grade: 1,3, University of Bayreuth (Rechts- und Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät), course: Abschlussarbeit am Lehrstuhl für Marketing, language: English, abstract: Rebranding is a frequently used marketing measure whenever corporations strive for changes in the physical elements of their brands or their brand management. This paper analyzes how consumers’ brand awareness and brand image is affected, when consumers are confronted with altered brand names and symbols. By elaborating the concept of brand equity transfers and four different consumer response scenarios, psychological theories and effects are derived and related to prevalent findings of rebranding-caused brand equity loss. "Rebranding" ist ein vielfach-angewandtes Marketinginstrument für den Fall, dass Unternehmen Veränderungen in physischen Markenmerkmalen oder ihrem Markenmanagement anstreben. Diese Arbeit untersucht wie Markenbekanntheit und Markenimage von Konsumenten beeinflusst werden, wenn Konsumenten mit veränderten Markennamen und –symbolen konfrontiert werden. Anhand der Ausarbeitung des Konzepts von Markenwert-Transfers sowie vier unterschiedlichen Konsumentenreaktionen werden psychologische Theorien und Effekte abgeleitet und in Zusammenhang mit verbreiteten Forschungsergebnissen über "Rebranding"-induzierte Verluste im Markenwert gesetzt.

Download or read book Understanding the Effect of Country Equity on Consumer based Brand Equity written by Ahmet Bayraktar and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion "brand equity" has recently been extended to countries by researchers proposing the concept "country equity." They suggest that countries, like brands, have equity, which affects consumers' evaluative judgments of their products. Country equity is defined as the value that consumers associate with the name of a country. Despite the prolific research on both country of origin (COO) and brand equity over the past few decades, the extant marketing literature does not explain whether consumer-based equity of a brand is linked to the equity of its COO. Furthermore, whether this effect holds across different cultures is an important issue to be addressed. The purpose of this dissertation is four-fold. The first objective is to examine the effect of country equity on consumer-based brand equity and understand the mechanism that explains the process. In this context, seven variables are examined as the potential moderators of the country equity effect. The second goal is to examine whether the country equity effect holds across different cultures. The third objective is to contribute to our understanding of country equity and brand equity constructs by developing new and more comprehensive measures. The final objective is to introduce the relatively new concept "consumer mindfulness" to consumer behavior and international marketing literature and examine its role as the potential moderator of COO effect. This dissertation utilized survey method in order to test the structural soundness of the proposed model and 18 propositions that have been developed mainly based on associative network memory (ANM) model, cue evaluation theory, categorization theory and hierarchy of effects model. The data was collected from convenience samples of 509 college students in Turkey and the United States. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to test the proposed conceptual model and relationships among the constructs. From a managerial perspective, the results of this dissertation suggest that country equity represents an important part of the competitive advantage of firms in global markets. More specifically, it suggests that the mere association of products with a particular country significantly influences consumers' brand image and quality perceptions, brand loyalty and willingness to pay a price premium. In this context, while firms with high country equity might achieve competitive advantage in the global markets and have strong bargaining power with channel members, firms with low country equity might face significant problems. Whether positive or negative, developed intentionally or by default, every country has equity. The strategic management of country equity and the recognition of its significance will be key to successful global marketing in the years ahead in which the global competition is expected to rise further. Considering the effect of country equity on consumer-based brand equity and the strategic role of country equity in global marketing, this research suggests that three key groups, namely, government, industry groups and individual firms should manage country equity and seek strategies to increase it in order to help firms from that country develop strong brand equity in the global markets, overcome entry barriers in foreign markets, have strong bargaining power with channel members, and be less vulnerable to fierce global competition.

Download or read book Creating Shareholder Value written by Alfred Rappaport and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1999-10-13 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economist, consultant, and Wall Street Journal contributor Alfred Rappaport provides managers and investors with the practical tools and tests for a corporate strategy that creates shareholder value. The ultimate test of corporate strategy, the only reliable measure, is whether it creates economic value for shareholders. After a decade of downsizings frequently blamed on shareholder value decision making, this book presents a new and indepth assessment of the rationale for shareholder value. Further, Rappaport presents provocative new insights on shareholder value applications to: (1) business planning, (2) performance evaluation, (3) executive compensation, (4) mergers and acquisitions, (5) interpreting stock market signals, and (6) organizational implementation. Readers will be particularly interested in Rappaport's answers to three management performance evaluation questions: (1) What is the most appropriate measure of performance? (2) What is the most appropriate target level of performance? and (3) How should rewards be linked to performance? Through the lens of high-stakes case studies, like the notable acquisition of Duracell International by Gillette, Rappaport dissects the intricate decisions and risks inherent in the merger and acquisition process. The shareholder value approach presented here has been widely embraced by publicly traded as well as privately held companies worldwide. Brilliant and incisive, this is the one book that should be required reading for managers and investors who want to stay on the cutting edge of success in a highly competitive global economy.
