ABSTRACT
The branding literature assumes that the higher a brand's equity, the greater is its behavioral loyalty. In this research, we develop a conceptual framework that explains the off-diagonal relationship between brand equity and behavioral loyalty (i.e., high equity but poor loyalty and vice versa) by identifying five shopper marketing related factors that potentially moderate this relationship. We adopt a multi-method approach by mailing surveys to collect shoppers' attitudinal data on brand equity and the moderators for ten brands in two product categories, and then merging it with each household's corresponding purchase data from a frequent shopper scanner panel to empirically test our framework. Findings reveal that approximately 40% of consumers exhibit high brand equity but low behavioral loyalty or vice versa. The relationship between brand equity and behavioral loyalty is accentuated by perceived instore presence and importance of brand choice decision, and attenuated by the brand equity of competitors. Our findings provide several implications for retailers and brand manufacturers.
Discussion
We matched purchase data from a frequent shopper program with survey data collected from a sample of the program's members to test the relationship between attitudinal brand equity and revealed behavioral loyalty and the factors that moderate this relationship. Although we find a strong main effect of brand equity on behavioral loyalty, several factors that capture consumer perceptions about the brand and the category moderate this relationship. Specifically, perceived in-store presence of the brand and perceived importance of brand choice decision accentuate the relationship between brand equity and behavioral loyalty and perceived brand equity of competitor brands mitigates the relationship. Our conceptual framework and empirical findings offer implications for retailers, manufacturers, and marketing theory.
