... The results show that a positive tea brand image significantly enhances consumers' intention to repurchase. This research utilized Biel [36], three-dimensional model of brand image (corporate image, product image, and user image) to comprehensively measure the tea brand image.

This study is dedicated to exploring how brand image influences repurchase intention through perceived value in the Chinese tea market. Five randomly selected tea brands among the top twenty tea brands in Sichuan Province were chosen as the study sample. Corporate image, product image and user image were used to measure brand image; meanwhile, functional value, emotional value, social value and price value were used to assess perceived value; and repurchase intention was directly measured through questionnaires. Six hundred valid questionnaires from consumers of these five brands were collected through the Questionnaire Star platform and analyzed by structural equation modeling using SMARTPLS 4.0 software. The results show that brand image has a significant positive effect on perceived value and repurchase intention, and perceived value plays a significant mediating role between brand image and repurchase intention. These findings not only enrich the theoretical framework, but also provide practical strategic recommendations for brand management in the Chinese tea market, emphasizing the need to pay attention to the impact of brand image on consumer repurchase intention through perceived value in the process of brand image construction and management, so as to enhance consumer loyalty and promote sustained purchase behavior.
... Aaker and Keller laid the foundations of BE research. Aaker (2013) defined the BE in terms of cognitive psychology as 'a set of brand assets and liabilities associated to a brand, its symbol, and name that adds to and subtracts from the provided value by a product or service to a firm or the firm's customer'. In the above definition 'assets' represents brand awareness, brand associations, brand loyalty, perceived quality, and other proprietary assets. ...
... BE has been studied from three distinct perspectives. The first perspective is regarding cognitive psychology, which characterizes BE as the differential customer response to the brand's marketing activities that originates from customers' associations with the brand (Aaker, 2013;Keller, 2016). This point of view considers the fact that brands having high BE or the brands for which customers have relatively more brand associations tend to create relatively more favorable marketing mix responses from their customers in comparison to the brands having relatively less positive brand associations. ...

The emergence of social media applications has opened up new avenues for firms to establish digital connections with their consumers, with a particular emphasis on creating personalized advertising on social media platforms. It is crucial to ensure proper synchronization of content used for advertising on these platforms. The current study focuses on the theoretical model that elucidates how social media advertising contributes to the development of robust brand-related images on social media platforms. Prior research shows that advertising has a significant impact on brand image. Hence, it is essential to discover how this relationship works in terms of social media advertising and how the attitude toward advertising mediates the relationship. This study employed a quantitative research approach. Data were obtained using the convenience sampling method from a sample of 325 respondents. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 22.0 and Smart PLS 4.0 were used for the data analysis. The study concluded that social media advertising has a direct effect on brand image and attitude towards advertising acts as a mediating role between advertising and brand image. Also, brand image has a direct effect on brand equity. The results provided several practical implications in understanding the underlying process of creating an effective social media advertising campaign that will impact the formation of consumers’ attitudes toward advertising and brand image, eventually leading to brand equity.
... This memory network or brand map connects brand image and shapes consumer perception (John et al., 2006). Although the brand image does not directly point to the actual monetary value, it is integral to brand equity (Biel, 1993). Brand equity is the value of a brand, and similar to brand image, it is intangible. ...
... Therefore, there should be a realistic expectation of the risk involved every time the endorsements are given to ensure it will not backfire on HMB's image. The danger of equity dilution is genuine because the brand image often impacts brand equity significantly; in fact, it drives brand equity (Biel, 1993). ...

Organizations often spend tremendous amounts of money to create a favourable brand image to overcome the competition and maintain the status quo in the market. This study investigates consumers’ valence towards the Halal Malaysia brand and whether consumers’ valence can quickly change after exposure to negative publicities. This study is exploratory, using a mixed method approach of qualitative and quasi-experimental design using an implicit association test (IAT). Findings from the interview showed that most informants are deeply affected by negative publicities due to the sensitive nature of Halal issues to Muslim consumers.
... However, the effect of non-advertising-based brand awareness on sales was non-existent. Our findings are consistent with previous research that has emphasized the importance of brand awareness in driving brand equity and sales (Keller and Lehmann (2003); Aaker and Biel (1993)). The positive relationship between advertising-based brand awareness and brand equity aligns with strong theories of advertising, which suggest that advertising can have a significant impact on consumer behavior. ...

This study explores the several sources of brand awareness and their differential impact on brand equity and market performance. The primary objective of this research is to disentangle those sources of brand awareness (advertising, and non-advertising awareness) and examine how each type influences brand equity building, and sales outcomes. Despite the recognized importance of brand awareness in marketing literature, there is a lack of comprehensive studies that differentiate between its various types and their specific effects. This research addresses this gap by providing a nuanced understanding of how different sources of brand awareness contribute to brand equity and market performance. The study employs a three step modeling approach, combining an adstock function, a state-space specification, and a mediation model to estimate the relationships between brand awareness, brand equity, and sales. The results indicate that advertising-generated brand awareness has a direct impact on brand equity, while other sources of brand awareness have no effect. Additionally, brand equity mediates the relationship between brand awareness and sales. This research fills a critical gap in the literature by providing a detailed analysis of the distinct roles played by different sources of brand awareness. It clarifies the debate between "strong theory" and "weak theory" of advertising by demonstrating that both theories can coexist, with advertising not only reinforcing consumer behavior but also building brand equity. By understanding the differential impacts of various types of brand awareness, managers can more effectively allocate resources to different marketing activities. For instance, investing in advertising can enhance both brand equity and sales, while leveraging distribution and word-of-mouth strategies can support these efforts by reinforcing brand recognition and loyalty.

In this research, we examine the extent to which culture influences brand personality preference, based on specific personality dimensions. This research focuses on two main group-level cultures: individualists and collectivists. We introduce and examine the variations in preferences of Sincere, Competent, and Sophisticated brand personalities and how cultural orientations influence brand personality preference. Based on previous literature, we suggest that consumers in collectivistic countries show a higher preference for brands with Sincere personalities. Moreover, we suggest that consumers in individualistic countries show a higher preference for brands with competent and sophisticated personalities. We also suggest that the mechanism underlying these effects is the perceived symbolic meaning of the brand. This effect is moderated by the cultural background (collectivistic vs. individualistic) of the consumer. This research contributes to the literature on brand personality traits, brand symbolic meaning, and cultural orientations. We discuss implications for marketers for global marketing strategies.

Günümüzde markalar rakiplerinden ayrışmak ve tüketicilerin zihninde olumlu çağrışımlarla konumlanabilmek için çeşitli stratejiler geliştirmektedir. Tüketicilerin birçok marka mesajına maruz kaldığı bu dönemde markaların duygusal bağlar kurarak anlamlı mesajlar iletmesi gittikçe daha önemli hale gelmiştir. Bu bağlamda ilk olarak 19. yüzyılın başlarında kullanılmaya başlayan ve marka kimliğini yansıtarak markanın sözcüsü olan marka maskotları önemli birer araç olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Temel amacı tüketicide olumlu marka çağrışımı yaratarak markayı hatırlatmak ve tüketiciyle bağ kurmak olan marka maskotları bu amaçlarını gerçekleştirebilmek için kültürle sıkı bir etkileşim içerisindedir. Birer kültürel anlatı olan marka maskotları, ortaya çıktıkları yerel kültürle kurduğu etkileşime ek olarak kültürlerarası iletişim bağlamında da önem arz etmektedir. Evrensel çekicilik yakalayabilen marka maskotları, hem yerel kültürde hem de uluslararası bağlamda markaya fayda sağlayabilmektedir. Bu tez çalışmasında İspanya'nın ulus kimliğinin bir parçası haline gelerek ikonikleşen Osborne Boğası örnek olarak seçilmiş ve marka maskotlarının kültürlerarası analizi İspanya örneği üzerinden tartışılmıştır. Bu bağlamda marka maskotlarının alımlanmasındaki kültürel etmenler, İspanya'da üretilen marka maskotlarının İspanyol tüketiciler ve diğer kültürden tüketiciler tarafından nasıl yorumlandığı ve satın alma isteklerini nasıl şekillendirdiği bu çalışmanın ana sorunsalları olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu sorunsallar kapsamında nitel araştırma yöntemi uygulanmış derinlemesine görüşmeler yapılarak veriler elde edilmiştir. Açık uçlu soruların yöneltildiği yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler, İspanya'nın farklı bölgelerinden 4 kişi ve İspanya'da minimum 1 yıl yaşamış farklı kültürden 6 kişi olmak üzere kartopu örneklem yöntemiyle seçilen toplam 10 kişiyle gerçekleştirilmiştir. Minimum 1 yıl yaşaması şartı, katılımcıların bu kültürü tanıması ve anlaması açısından gerekli görüldüğü için konulmuştur. Derinlemesine görüşmelerden elde edilen veriler tematize edilerek betimsel olarak analiz edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak maskotların alımlanmasında kişilerin kültürel arka planlarının ve tarihsel olayların önemli rol oynadığı görülmüştür. Aynı zamanda kültürle çok fazla iç içe geçerek ikonikleşen maskotların zamanla marka çağrışımını yitirdiği görülmüştür.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the connection between brand character and customer commitment. The personality of a brand describes how its products and services are perceived by its target audience. Brand engagement refers to the emotional investment and participation of customers in a brand. Highlighting significant results and research gaps, this study delivers a complete literature analysis on brand personality and consumer brand engagement. In this article, we investigate how brand character influences customer loyalty. Brand personality was shown to have a significant impact on customer involvement, with certain attributes being more strongly connected with engagement than others. Brand trust, perceived quality, and brand loyalty were shown to mitigate the impact of brand personality on consumer involvement. The results have far-reaching implications for brand managers hoping to build stronger connections with consumers. Managers may improve marketing tactics that connect with customers on an emotional level by learning how brand personality influences consumer engagement. Understanding the role of brand personality in customer behavior is important, and this research helps brand managers learn how to use this idea to boost consumer commitment to their products. Keywords: brand character, customer commitment, brand personality, brand engagement, emotional investment, participation, customer loyalty, perceived quality, brand trust, brand managers, marketing tactics, consumer behavior.

La transcreación es una práctica que consiste en la adaptación interlingüística e intercultural de materiales de tipo promocional (principalmente, en los ámbitos de la publicidad y el marketing). A lo largo de los últimos años, ha cobrado una importancia creciente en el sector de los servicios lingüísticos, en un contexto caracterizado por la devaluación de la traducción humana (debido a dinámicas de mercantilización) y por su automatización de la mano de tecnologías como la traducción automática neuronal. En este panorama, la transcreación ha ganado importancia como un servicio de valor añadido, que ha captado el interés tanto de empresas como de investigadores, los cuales han trabajado en el desarrollo de diferentes definiciones sobre la práctica. A pesar de estos esfuerzos, las caracterizaciones existentes sobre la transcreación no han tenido en cuenta la visión de los individuos que ofertan este servicio. Partiendo de la hipótesis de que los profesionales que ejercen esta práctica pueden proporcionar información valiosa sobre su naturaleza, esta tesis plantea una caracterización de la transcreación mediante un estudio de corte sociológico basado en la realización de una serie de entrevistas y encuestas, todo ello articulado en torno a cinco objetivos: (i) explorar si los profesionales perciben la transcreación como una estrategia, un servicio o como ambos; (ii) examinar si los profesionales perciben la transcreación como un servicio de valor añadido y las posibilidades de este en términos de desarrollo profesional; (iii) obtener datos de tipo cualitativo y cuantitativo sobre la remuneración de la transcreación; (iv) recopilar información sobre el tipo de clientes que solicitan servicios de transcreación; y (v) explorar la percepción de los profesionales sobre los motivos del interés en la transcreación. A partir de los resultados obtenidos, es posible llegar a cinco conclusiones alineadas con los objetivos de la tesis: a) los profesionales perciben la transcreación como un servicio y una estrategia, lo que puede tener implicaciones en la revalorización de prácticas existentes que no son percibidas en la actualidad como "transcreación"; b) la transcreación se percibe como un servicio de valor añadido, lo que en principio implicaría una mejor remuneración y competitividad, así como un mayor nivel de empoderamiento de los profesionales; c) la transcreación es un servicio que parece estar mejor remunerado que otros en el mismo mercado (como la traducción); d) aunque tradicionalmente se ha considerado un servicio ofertado y demandado por empresas del sector de los servicios lingüísticos, la mayor parte de la demanda de servicios de transcreación parece proceder de empresas del ámbito de la publicidad, el marketing, la comunicación y las relaciones públicas; y e) los profesionales perciben que el interés del sector de los servicios lingüísticos en la transcreación se debería principalmente a la necesidad de hacer frente a nuevas demandas del mercado. Los resultados y conclusiones de la tesis permiten afirmar que este es un terreno fértil para el desarrollo de nuevas líneas de investigación como la identificación de prácticas no consideradas como transcreación en la actualidad, el análisis de la conceptualización del concepto "valor añadido" por parte de los profesionales y clientes que ofrecen y demandan servicios de transcreación, el análisis pormenorizado de las prácticas de remuneración del servicio de transcreación, la estimación de la demanda potencial de servicios de transcreación en mercados diferentes al sector de los servicios lingüísticos y el estudio de las necesidades formativas de los profesionales futuros o en activo en relación con el servicio.
