Brand equity
Represents the value of a brand in the market
place. It is defined by five elements:
Strategic vision: management who decides 1. Market behavior
what needs to be done 2. Awareness
3. Association and differentiation
4. Quality
5. Loyalty
, Symbolic values
Consumers (but more broadly stakeholders) of
a certain organization attribute a value to its
brand because it defines a degree of belonging
based on the creation of a common ground of
understanding
Based on the values conveyed by the brand,
stakeholders
- Buy branded products
- Invest in the company stock
- Work for the company behind the
brand
- Promote the brand, as consumers
- Invest trust in the brand
This symbolic value of a brand
translates into financial value
