A Brand for All Media - Consumer Brand Relationships and their Influence on Franchise Development in the Changing Media Landscape
1. A Brand for All Media
Consumer Brand Relationships and their
Influence on Franchise Development in the
Changing Media Landscape

2. The Changing Landscape
•
•
•
•
Digital/mobile/social has fundamentally changed the way people and
brands interact and challenged established norms in understanding,
developing and measuring brands.
New distribution and communication channels, dramatic innovations
impacting the shopping experience and the fact that brand owners
now share control of their reputation with consumers have, at the
same time, created opportunities for marketers to build stronger and
more meaningful connections with their audiences.
To take advantage of these new opportunities, it is no longer
sufficient to think of and measure brands in traditional ways, i.e.
brand attributes, awareness, consideration and usage.
To build stronger consumer engagement and advocacy, and fully
take advantage of new communications opportunities, it is
necessary to deeply understand the nature of the relationship
between consumer and brand so that appropriate messages and
communications channels can be optimized.
3. Moving from Traditional Consumer Perspectives
to Consumer Brand Relationships
• Understanding brand relationships is just like understanding
any other relationship.
• In the consumer/brand relationship – as in all relationships –
there are two participants, two sets of attitudes being
expressed, and two sets of behaviors that need to be
understood before the nature of the relationship can be
understood.
• This means that we need to listen to both sides of “the
conversation”
4. Listening to both sides of the
conversation
There is a dialogue between brand and consumer going on
inside the consumer’s mind
•
In most research we elicit and measure only one side of that dialogue – the
one that reflects consumers’attitudes toward the brand – brand image
•
But there is a second side to this dialogue, which reflects the brand’s attitudes
toward the consumer, which are a measure of how someone feels as a result
of interaction with the brand
Essentially, we need to ask the consumer not only what s/he
thinks of the brand, but also what the brand thinks of him or her
•
Not just Brand Perceptions – what you tell consumers about your brand – but
also Brand Attitudes – what you make your brand tell consumers about
themselves
•
Not just Brand Use - what the consumer does with your brandbut also Brand Experiences - what your brand does with the
consumer

WOM (human)
Earned
Caveats:
•
‘Content marketing’ as we’ve been discussing crosses many categories… it can be owned or paid and found across
channels
•
Social Media is tricky since it can be generated by the company, sponsored by the company or consumer generated
(e.g. commentary or earned viral sharing)
•
Sponsorships can be ad-oriented or event oriented; hence the ‘Events’ in paid
•
In-Store can be owned (Walmart, Nike, etc.) or paid, depending on the brand
The data collected in this study was not sufficiently fine-grained to be able to make these distinctions. Based on
the analysis, it is our belief that social media referred principally to the unpaid sort, while internet and websites
referred to brands’ websites. Although we are using the terms paid and unpaid, the real significance of these
terms is brand-controlled vs. non-controlled. (Thus, for example an ad posted by someone on YouTube might
fall into the latter category).
10. The Influence of Media and Brand
Relationship Equity on
Brand Franchise Development
•
•
•
The model proposed here specifies that
brand franchise development – use, use
frequency and brand preference – is a
function of Brand Relationship Equity
and Media Exposure.
There are significant levels of correlation
between media exposure and BRE, but
the model does not assign a causative
relationship to these associations (they
probably work in both directions). Using
SEM rather than ordinary regression
allows estimation with explicit correlation
between the “independent” variables
without biasing the estimates.
With the exception of In Store and
Traditional Media, correlations between
exposure of brands in different media
are not high; with this one exception, the
media variables have therefore been
treated as independent of each other, in
order to avoid over-specifying the model.
11. Consumer Brand Relationships and Word of
Mouth best at Creating Use and Preference
• The model proposed here specifies
that brand franchise development –

Relationship Equity and Media
Exposure.

• Traditional Media acts as an initiator
12. The Power of CBR, Digital and Traditional
Media Depends on the Product Category
For non-digital brands as a group,
the two strongest media influences
on brand franchise development
are Word of Mouth and In-Store;
websites and traditional media are
significant too (no bars are shown
for non-significant coefficients).
There is however considerable
variation between categories:
• Social Media are significant
influences both for hair care and
mass market retail
• Websites are massively influential
on bank brands and – to a lesser
extent – credit cards too.
• Traditional media have their
strongest influence for corporate
and gasoline brands and for
casual dining brands.
• Word of Mouth and In-Store play a
significant and strong role in most
categories.
13. Relationships Summary
• Identification prompts the most positive
communication about the brand – whether or
not people use it.
– People can use brand communication as a form of
self expression; that doesn’t mean they necessarily
love the brand – or love it enough to use it.
14. Identification is the relationship with the most power; likely
to prompt positive communication about the brand and
discourage negative communication
