Abstract:
The adoption of co-branding has raised across different industries in the last decade. The highly competitive environment has favored the use of co-branding as repellent to threats emerging from a more and more complex market. For this reason, several companies are employing this strategy to target new consumers by increasing brand awareness as well as mitigating risks and reducing costs. The aim of this study is to understand what are the most important co-branding techniques used by Luxury Fashion brands, classifying the kind of partnerships involved and grasping how brands such as Louis Vuitton, Dior, and Versace deal with them in order to gain a significant benefit. Starting from a general overview of the literature about co-branding, the study will proceed with a focus on the whole Fashion industry explaining how co-branding has become a widespread reality for firms that operate in this sector, taking as example the most significant collaborations of recent years like the one that saw Louis Vuitton partnering up with the streetwear brand Supreme to produce an one-off collection and the one occurred between the Italian maison Versace and the fast-fashion retailer H&M. In addition, the study will offer a perspective on how consumers perceive the co-branded relationships in order to understand the critical aspects that must be taken into consideration to manage co- branding.

Abstract:
Syfte - Studien syftar till att undersöka hur ett modeföretags icke-finansiella(konsumentbaserade) brand equity påverkas av co-branding. Studien undersöker hur ettsamarbete mellan två modeföretag, så kallat intrabranschsamarbete, påverkar huvudvarumärketsicke-finansiella brand equity.Metod - Studien utgår från Aakers modell för att mäta brand equity. Metoden för studien harvarit att använda fokusgrupper för att undersöka konsumentattityder till co-branding. I studienanvändes ett verklighetsbaserat modesamarbete som diskussionsunderlag för fokusgrupperna,där ett fallföretag och dess samarbete med en annan modeaktör valdes ut. Totalt 12 styckenstudenter från Textilhögskolan i Borås deltog i studien, fördelat över två fokusgrupper.Fynd - Studien visar att ett modevarumärkes brand equity kan stärkas och påverkas positivt medhjälp av co-branding.Begränsningar - Uppsatsen är begränsad till ett samarbete genomfört av två textilföretag vilketgör resultaten främst applicerbara på samarbeten inom modebranschen. Fler genomförda studier,med ett större antal fokusgrupper och en bredare population, skulle kunna ökageneraliserbarheten.Originalitet - Studien undersöker konsumentattityder till co-branding inom modebranschen medhjälp av fokusgrupper. Resultatet ger empiriska indikationer på hur svenska studenter ser på cobrandinginom mode branschen och hur ett modeföretags brand equity påverkas av co-branding.

The co-branding strategy consists of an alliance between two brands for the development of a product that is labeled and identified simultaneously by both, in order to reinforce competitiveness and to offer more value for customers through brand associations. This study aims to identify whether consumers evaluate co-branded products differently depending on the brand s knowledge level, and if the evaluation varies among consumers from both higher and lower socioeconomic strata. The product s evaluation process can be understood from the perspective of the anchoring theory, which is the adoption of a framework that guides individual s choice. Previous studies investigated how consumers accumulate knowledge about brands and apply this information to evaluate the co-branded products. Results indicated that in a co-branding alliance a constituent stimulus (brand) should serve as an anchor and can affect the evaluation of the product as a whole. In this study, differently from previous work, the evaluated product (a laptop) is the result of a co-branding strategy with an ingredient brand (Intel) one that acts as a modifier of the host brand and adds value to it. To investigate these questions, three experiments were carried out with 865 undergraduate students from different higher education institutions located in São Paulo. The experimental projects were of within and between-subject designs, and the data collected were analyzed using t-tests for comparison of means and general linear models (GLM). The dependent variable was the product evaluation and the independent variables were brand (low and high brand awareness), co-branding (presence and absence) and socioeconomic strata (lower and higher). The laptops of both well-known brands and less-known brands were better evaluated when the co-branding alliance was present. No evidence was found to support the assumption that the difference in evaluation between products with and without co-branding is higher among respondents from lower socioeconomic stratum, compared to respondents of higher socioeconomic stratum. This study contributes to cover a gap in the literature on anchoring because it addresses non-numerical scenarios and compares the behaviors of consumers from different social classes. It was found that the theory of anchoring seems to be insufficient to explain the difference in the evaluation of a product when the co-branding strategy is adopted. Finally, opportunities for further research on the co-branding topic are proposed.
A estratégia de co-branding consiste na aliança entre duas marcas para desenvolver um produto, que é rotulado e identificado simultaneamente por ambas, com o fim de fortalecer a competitividade e oferecer mais valor aos clientes por meio das associações de marca. Este trabalho tem como objetivo identificar se a avaliação do produto em situação de co-branding é diferente quando a aliança é formada por marcas muito e pouco conhecidas, e se há diferença entre a avaliação de consumidores de estrato socioeconômico superior e inferior. Esse processo de avaliação do produto pode ser entendido sob a ótica da ancoragem, que consiste na adoção de um referencial que direciona a escolha dos indivíduos. Em estudos anteriores, verificou-se que consumidores acumulam conhecimento das marcas e utilizam essas informações na avaliação de produtos co-branded; os resultados indicam que, numa aliança de co-branding, um estímulo constituinte (marca) deve servir como âncora e pode afetar a avaliação do produto como um todo. Nesta dissertação, diferente dos trabalhos que serviram como base teórica, o produto avaliado (notebook) é resultado de uma co-branding com marca ingrediente (Intel) aquela que age como modificadora da marca de acolhimento e adiciona valor a ela. Para investigar tais questões, foram realizados três experimentos com 865 estudantes de graduação de diferentes instituições de ensino superior de São Paulo. Os projetos experimentais foram do tipo between e within-subject, e as análises foram conduzidas por meio de testes t de comparação de médias e de modelos lineares gerais (GLM). A variável dependente foi avaliação do produto e as variáveis independentes foram marca (muito e pouco conhecida), co-branding (presença e ausência) e estrato socioeconômico (superior e inferior). Verificou-se que notebooks, tanto de marcas muito conhecidas quanto de marcas menos conhecidas, são mais bem avaliados quando estão em aliança de co-branding. Não foram encontradas evidências para sustentar a ideia de que a diferença na avaliação obtida entre os produtos com e sem co-branding seja maior entre os respondentes de classe socioeconômica inferior, na comparação com respondentes de classe socioeconômica superior. Este estudo contribui para preencher uma lacuna na literatura em ancoragem, uma vez que aborda cenários não numéricos e compara os comportamentos de consumidores de diferentes classes sociais. Identificou-se que a teoria da ancoragem parece ser insuficiente para explicar as diferenças na avaliação de produtos com e sem co-branding. Por fim, são propostas oportunidades de novas pesquisas sobre o tema co-branding.

Abstract:
One of the most profound transformations of the marketing discipline in recent history has been driven by the democratization of power relations and value creation between brands and consumers. This dissertation explores the branding implications of this fundamental shift by investigating whether and how the type and degree of control shared by brands affect consumer empowerment perceptions and, in turn, consumer–brand relationships, as well as whether and how these effects might be moderated by the size and diversity of the choice set and by the image valence of the brand that shares control with consumers. The present research examines such questions in a prosocial context by studying an emerging form of co-created social responsibility, cause-related marketing (CM) with choice, in which the consumer, not the brand, chooses the charitable cause to which the brand will donate in response to the consumer’s purchase. By integrating research on power, choice, and brand relationships, this dissertation proposes a conceptual framework that predicts whether, when, and why giving consumers control over a brand’s meaningful decision (operationalized as CM with choice) strengthens consumer–brand relationships. Six experiments test this framework. The dissertation shows that letting consumers choose a brand’s donation recipient strengthens consumer–brand relationships by increasing consumer empowerment and engagement. This serial mediation through empowerment and engagement is replicated across all studies. The main effect can be bolstered by providing consumers either unrestricted choice (i.e., choose any cause from memory) rather than restricted choice (i.e., select from a list of predetermined cause options; Studies 1–4) or a combination of both choice modes (Study 4), but not by expanding the size of the set of cause options (Study 2) or increasing the similarity or dissimilarity of the options (Studies 3a and 3b). Finally, Study 5 reveals that introducing a conventional CM campaign improves brand outcomes (attachment, attitudes, and purchase intentions) regardless of brand image (negative, neutral, or positive) and that adding consumer cause choice to the campaign benefits brands as much as (or more than) introducing the campaign itself does, though only when brand image is neutral or positive. When brand image is negative, adding consumer cause choice fails to improve brand outcomes and can even backfire—a boundary condition similar to the boomerang effect that arises from psychological reactance because consumers prefer to keep their distance. A central implication of this dissertation is that when a brand allows consumers to co-create its charitable giving campaign, neither the choice set’s size or diversity nor consumers’ involvement or satisfaction with the chosen cause brings consumers closer to the brand; instead, what brings them closer to the brand is their increased sense of empowerment, which in turn enhances their engagement with the brand that shares its control. An equally important implication results from the observed boomerang effect, which should serve as a warning for any managers who risk falling into the trap of adopting a standard, one-size-fits-all view of prosocial co-creation as a tool to repair an otherwise defective brand reputation. A strategy that encourages consumers to serve as brand agents by co-creating the brand’s meaning requires caution on the brand’s part. As in interpersonal relationships, the general desire to spend time together must first be at least somewhat mutual before any shared experience—no matter how positive—can make the bond grow stronger.

Abstract:
I dagens samhälle finns reklam överallt och de flesta innehar en attityd gentemot både reklam och de varumärken som florerar i den, vare sig den är omedveten eller medveten. En målgrupp som ses som lättpåverkad, men ändå har en stark medvetenhet om olika varumärken är ungdomar. Som ung gäller det att passa in men ändå stå ut, att hitta sig själv trots grupptryck och påtryckningar från omvärlden. En inte obetydlig del av detta inflytande kommer från olika sorters marknadsföring som alla utsätts för varje dag. Denna studie ämnar undersöka ungdomars attityd till olika varumärken och hur attityden till enskilda varumärken kan påverka samarbete i form av co-branding, men även hur den upplevda passningen kan påverka resultatet. Respondenterna är elever på Skärgårdsgymnasiet i Åkersberga och med snöbollsmetoden som urval har 24 semistrukturerade intervjuer genomförts. De medverkande har fått ge sin åsikt om fyra olika varumärken, två företag och två personer. Därefter har de fått se en reklamfilm där ett företag och en person har ingått i ett samarbete och slutligen har respondenterna återgett sin attityd igen angående varumärken, samarbete och hur väl de anser att varumärkena passar ihop. Studiens resultat visar hur faktorer som en positiv eller negativ attityd drastiskt kan förändras av att de varumärken som ingår i alliansen inte passar ihop i respondenternas ögon. Positiv attityd överförs i viss grad, men även fall där de två delarna sågs som negativa kunde efter avslöjandet om samarbete ge respondenterna en positiv attityd. Tillsammans med tidigare forskning inom området co-branding kan uppsatsen tillföra ytterligare kunskap i denna forskning om konsumenters attityd gentemot varumärken.

Abstract:
För en stad är det viktigt att sticka ut, att göra sig hörd bland andra städer som konkurrerar om besöksnäring och nya invånare. Hur kan en medelstor stad sticka ut från mängden? Kanske genom att marknadsföra sig tillsammans med en idrottsförening. Studien undersöker hur en stad tillsammans med det lokala elitishockeylaget och destinationsbolaget arbetar för att skapa en positiv bild av staden. Tidigare forskning har fokuserat på hur städer arbetat med stora mästerskap, såsom Olympiska spelen och världsmästerskap. Ingen relevant forskning som vi har tagit del av har behandlat samarbetet mellan ett lokalt elitlag i ishockey, destinationsbolag samt kommun. De teorier som använts är place branding och co-branding. Dessa teorier består av flera aspekter som kan appliceras på en studie, place branding har ”the five Rs of place branding” och co-branding har ”5C co-branding strategy”. Den metod som använts är kvalitativa intervjuer. Dessa intervjuer var strukturerade med öppna frågor för att få så informationsrika svar som möjligt. Orsaken till att kvalitativa intervjuer genomfördes var att få reda på om det fanns något samarbete mellan organisationerna. Resultatet visar att det inte finns något utbrett samarbete mellan dessa tre organisationer. Samtliga organisationer var positiva till ett framtida samarbete men i dagsläget finns inga planer från någon av organisationerna att inleda ett samarbete med någon av de andra.
It is important for a city to stand out, to make itself heard among other cities that are competing for the same tourism income and new citizens. How can an medium-sized city stand out from the crowd? Perhaps by marketing itself together with a sports club. This study investigates how a city together with the local elite ice hockey team and the visitors bureau work to create a positive image of the city. Previous research has focused on how cities work with big events, such as the Olympic games and world championships. No relevant research that we have come across has looked at the cooperation between a local elite ice hockey team, the visitors bureau and the local government. The theories that have been used are place branding and co-branding. These theories are composed of multiple aspects that can be applied to a study, place branding has ”the five Rs of place branding” and co-branding has the ”5C co-branding strategy”. The method that has been used is qualitative interviews. The interviews that have been carried out were structured with open question to get as much information from the answers as possible. The reason that qualitative interviews were carried out was to find out if there was any cooperation between these organizations. The results show that there is no widespread cooperation between these organizations. All of the organizations were positive to the idea of future cooperation, but as of now there are no plans from any of the organizations to commence a cooperation initiative with any of the others.

Abstract:
The essay deals with the subject about branding and the communicative process that entails between businesses and consumers. The purpose of this paper is to increase understanding of the opportunities and risks of brand building through sponsorship and Co-Branding. This descriptive analysis is made by highlighting the partnership between two strong brands in the Swedish market, Åbro & AIK, and how internal and external associations related to their impact on brand equity. The study has led to the conclusion that the sponsorship should be seen as synonymous with Co-branding, ie. a synergy between two or more brands. This is based on a discussion in which partnerships between businesses, organizations and athletes are surrounded and influenced by association, linked to both parties, whose meanings are transferred from brand to the consumer and vice versa, which in turn affects their brand image and equity. The paper also presents an alternative approach to consumer feedback, concerning low-involvement products in high-involved contexts based on a discussion of sponsorship, as a form of branding, affects a recipient both cognitively but also emotionally. The conclusion suggests that a communicative model in which businesses interact with potential target groups through a common interest can give a competitive advantage over competing substitutes with low differentiation. This then becomes an effective way to penetrate the media clutter and reach a potential audience.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Design com a especialização em Design de Comunicação apresentada na Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre.
O co-design é um processo profundamente participativo no qual diversos indivíduos, provenientes de diferentes contextos e com competências igualmente distintas, se reúnem em sessões criativas para dar o seu contributo e debater ideias num projeto de design de interesse comum. Uma agência de design, ao envolver o cliente no processo de desenvolvimento, assim como outras entidades relevantes no projeto, está a criar oportunidade para que ocorra a participação e a discussão ativa de ideias através de exercícios que estimulam a criatividade. Com o intuito de compreender melhor este método criativo e colaborativo, bem como avaliar o seu verdadeiro potencial no desenvolvimento de projetos de branding, realizou-se um estágio numa agência de design, a Torke CC, que recorre ao processo de co-design nos projetos que realiza. Neste sentido, a investigação sobre o tema tem como principal foco os projetos desenvolvidos em contexto de estágio curricular, uma prática complementada pelo conhecimento adquirido a partir do enquadramento teórico. Utilizou-se neste estudo uma metodologia de natureza mista de base qualitativa, sendo que, numa primeira fase – dedicada à análise e recolha de informação sobre o tema – aplica-se uma metodologia não-intervencionista, a revisão da literatura e a pesquisa por entrevista. Na fase seguinte, dedicada ao desenvolvimento projetual na empresa, recorre-se a uma metodologia intervencionista, a investigação ativa. O trabalho prático e a reflexão teórica acerca dos constrangimentos e, acima de tudo, dos benefícios do co-design permitem reforçar a sua pertinência enquanto processo participativo que permite alcançar resultados de sucesso, satisfazendo todas as partes interessadas e minimizando os riscos associados aos processos de trabalho mais convencionais.
ABSTRACT: Co-design is a deeply participatory process in which several individuals, from different contexts and with equally different skills, come together in creative sessions to make their contribution and discuss ideas in a design project of common interest. A design agency, by involving the client in the development process, as well as other relevant entities in the project, is creating an opportunity for the participation and active discussion of ideas through exercises that stimulate creativity. To better understand this creative and collaborative method, as well as evaluate its true potential in the development of branding projects, an internship took place at a design agency, Torke CC, which applies the co-design process in the projects that performs. In this sense, the investigation on the theme has as main focus the projects developed in the context of curricular internship, a practice complemented by the knowledge acquired from the theoretical framework. In this study, a mixed nature methodology with a qualitative basis was used, and in a first phase - dedicated to the analysis and collection of information on the topic - a non-interventionist methodology, literature review and interview research are applied. In the next phase, dedicated to project development in the company, an interventionist methodology is used, the active research. Practical work and theoretical reflection on the constraints and, above all, the benefits of co-design allow to reinforce its relevance as a participatory process that allows achieving successful results, satisfying all interested parts and minimizing the risks associated with more conventional work processes.

Abstract:
Syfte och Forskningsfrågor: Syftet med denna studie är att urskilja olika samarbetsprocesser för hur influencers nyttjar digitala nätverk och hur det främjar såväl influencer och företag som väljer att samarbeta. Utifrån detta syfte har vi formulerat tre frågeställningar som lyder enligt följande: 1.På vilka sätt nyttjar influencers digitala nätverk? 2.Vilka lärdomar kan företag få av ett samarbete med influencers gällande vilka strategier som är framgångsrika för att förmedla sitt budskap? 3.Hur kan co-branding mellan företag och influencers ge olika respons? Metod Studien är utformad utifrån en kvalitativ undersökningsmetod för att få en djup förståelse för fältet. Ansatsen är av induktiv karaktär och empirin utgör därför en central del av studien. Empirin utgörs av insamlad data i form av sex semistrukturerade intervjuer med individer relevanta för ämnet. Slutsats: Studiens resultat har påvisat hur co-branding mellan en influencer och företag kan utveckla sociala medie nätverkande och mynnat ut i en samarbetsmodell. Karakteristiska drag av ett co-brand på sociala medier är att det krävs en engagerad och dedikerad publik och att ett trovärdigt samarbete är avgörande om ett co-brand ska bli lyckat. Utöver detta visar studien på att influencermarknadsföringen är en metod i framkant när det gäller att segmentera fram rätt målgrupp. Slutligen visar resultat på att influencermarknadsföringen är under utveckling och att den har stor marknadspotential.

Abstract:
Franchising is a popular form of distribution for products and services that makes a significant contribution to the Australian economy. Traditionally, franchisors (the principal in the franchise relationship) maintain rigid control over their systems. Thus the focal point for this research, co-branding (the blending of another brand into the original franchise concept), is in itself a conundrum worthy of investigation. Franchising research is dominated by theoretical foundations of agency theory, resource constraints theory and transaction cost economics which debate the initial adoption of the franchising model and its subsequent use by organisations. Academic investigation in an Australian context is found to be disparate at best with little development found regarding franchise models of growth. Two American studies of franchise co-branding are identified but fall short of explaining this phenomenon as an expansion strategy in mature franchise systems. Therefore the significance of this study resides in the creation of theory explaining the adoption of the complex growth strategy of co-branding in the context of franchising. A grounded theory methodology is adopted to gather and analyse data from a limited range of organisations using franchisors as the unit of analysis. Almost three hundred pages of data were gathered from a range of national executives and company documents to triangulate to an organisational perspective. Throughout meta-triangulation a further one hundred and fifty pages of notes/analysis were created. This process identifies dynamics between brands (as representations of the organisations involved) through comparison so problems and issues most important to respondents are presented. These comparisons form propositions. Propositions form the basis of the theory. The theory of maintaining franchise system isotropy is multi-faceted. Systems establish external co-brand alliances utilising high quality brands. Once external relationships are established franchise systems create brands internally. This results in higher levels of system resilience. In the search for resilience, franchisors subjugate their positions in order to minimise exposure to external brand alliances and maximise franchisee adoption of the internally created co-brand. Transition from external co-brands to an internally created strategy is identified as transcendence. Transcendence is characterised by the original franchise brand transferring its brand attributes to the newly established co-brand. Maturity of the co-brand relationship results in bilateral leveraging of brand attributes. To maximise the retail co-brand strategy brand migration is instigated to establish the most effective locations. When these facets are combined, the theory of maintaining franchise system isotropy emerges. Franchise systems view themselves as invariant (unaffected by a designated operation or transformation). This view drives strategy decisions from which franchise operations remain the same. This behaviour is described as isotropic and explains the strategic organisational process in this context. This approach forms the basis of a compelling argument against the ownership redirection debate (where franchise systems may choose to buy back franchised outlets as they mature). The combination of franchising and incentives/subsidisation produces extra-contractual obligatory behaviour highlighting new perspectives for the agent-theoretic argument by characterising the principal/agent relationship as ‘deeper’ and therefore must be redefined within the context of franchising. Further, an increase in transaction costs from this strategy notionally supports a need for company-owned operations (as franchisees needed to be compelled by subsidy to adopt this strategy). Hence, the theory of maintaining franchise system isotropy provides an explanation that extends previous thought in this area and introduces new concepts and perspectives to more effectively understand this complex organisational process. Therefore this study has academic implications for franchising research and the broader marketing management and channel strategy areas. Further implications for franchise systems are also identified. Future investigations to develop the different facets of the theory are necessary to provide a fuller understanding of this phenomenon.

Abstract:

Bakgrund: Många konkurrerande produkter liknar idag varandra och därför krävs ofta andra egenskaper än bra produkter för att övertala konsumenterna till köp. Ett sätt att förstärka associationskraften i ett varumärke kan vara att samarbeta med ytterligare ett varumärke. Detta kallas för co-branding och handlar om att man genom samarbete drar nytta av ett annat varumärke för att på så vis skapa fördelar som kan stärka det egna varumärket. Det tilläggsvärde som ett varumärke ger den märkta produkten betecknas av begreppet brand equity. Co- branding skulle kunna öka brand equity men det kan även innebära stora problem som skulle kunna minska brand equity.

Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att definiera och beskriva begreppet ”co- branding” ur ett svenskt marknadsperspektiv. Vidare vill vi undersöka om och hur co-branding som varumärkesstrategi genom konsumenterna kan påverka ett företags brand equity.

Genomförande: Uppsatsen bygger på tre små n-studier av de co-brandade produkterna Daimglass, klädkollektionen ”Lagerfeld for H&M” och Vodafonemärkta Sony Ericssontelefoner. Primärdata har samlats in genom två stycken e- mailintervjuer med representanter på Sony Ericsson och H&M. Därtill har 90 stycken intervjuer gjorts med konsumenter.

Resultat: Vi har i vår uppsats kommit fram till en egen definition av begreppet co-branding. Vi kan även konstatera att brand equity kan påverkas på många olika sätt genom de fyra varumärkestillgångarna märkeskännedom, upplevd kvalitet, associationer till varumärket och märkeslojalitet. Slutligen har vi kunnat bidra med några goda råd riktade till de företag som står inför ett co- brandingsamarbete.

Abstract:

Den senaste tiden har en mängd samarbeten, eller så kallade co-brandings, mellan olika företags varumärken vuxit fram. Avsikten är att förstärka sitt eller sina varumärken med hjälp av ett annat varumärke som är förknippat med någonting unikt. Hur bedömer man resultatet av denna co-branding? Har det egna varumärket förstärkts eller har det försvagats? För att klargöra detta resultat måste varumärkets Brand Equity mätas. Med brand equity menas det kapital som varumärket representerar. I denna kvantitativa studie består respondenterna av ett kvoturval om 50 studenter. Vi har skapat ett mätinstrument för denna fallstudie utifrån Aakers modell för brand equity och dess fyra dimensioner; brand awareness, perceived quality, differentiation samt brand loyalty. Genom att undersöka hur Acers brand equity påverkas av co-branding med Ferrari genomför vi ett första preliminärt test av vårt mätinstrument.

Resultatet av vår undersökning visar på ett tydligt samband mellan Acers brand equity och cobranding. Vårt resultat visar tydligt att alla fyra dimensioner inom Acers brand equity har påverkats i positiv riktning i och med co-branding med Ferrari. Avslutningsvis ger vi även förslag till intressanta framtida studier inom detta område.

Den här uppsatsen försöker kartlägga vilka produkt- och varumärkesegenskaper som driverkonsumenternas val av premiumöl på restaurang och redovisar en konsumentstudie gjord irestaurangmiljö. Tidigare forskning menar att det finns en outnyttjad potential förrestauranger som vill utnyttja det snabbt ökande intresset för hantverksöl genom co-brandingmed attraktiva premiumvarumärken. Studien visar att konsumenter av premiumöl pårestaurang värderar både produktegenskaper men också funktionella, sociala och emotionellavarumärkesegenskaper signifikant annorlunda mellan premiumöl och mainstreamöl. Studienvisar också att restaurangens utbud av premiumöl påverkar konsumentens val av restaurangoch att ökade kunskaper om öl kan vara en nyckel till ökad försäljning av hantverksöl.
This paper employs a sample of restaurant customers to explain consumer preferences forpremium beer brands. Previous research has pointed to the underexplored niche marketpotential of craft beer related to Food & Beverage operators and suggest increasing cobrandingwith premium beer brands in order to gain competitive advantage. This studyexplains a significant percentage of variance in premium consumer preferences for premiumbeer to mainstream beer comparing product attribute utitlity to brand equity dimensions(functional, social and emotional dimensions). This study also shows that the beer menu ofthe restaurant is likely to effect premium consumers choice of restaurant and that efforts toincrease consumer knowledge of beer can be the key to increased sales of craft beers.

Abstract:

Olika former av allianser har numera börjat utvecklas och bli allt mer vanliga. Eftersom det kan vara svårt att höras och synas försöker företag i allt större utsträckning göra det i nya sammanhang. Den mättade marknaden driver företag till att särskilja sig, vilket ofta med enklaste medel görs med deras varumärken. Varumärken är en stor resurs som används i detta syfte, och de får en allt större attraktionskraft. Företag som är mer varumärkesinriktade har också visat sig vara mer framgångsrika.

Den här undersökningen avser behandla co-branding, som uppstår när två företag med distinkta varumärken inom samma eller olika branscher väljer att samarbeta. Vi har valt att inrikta oss på olikartade företag eftersom co-branding-allianser allt oftare breddar sig till olika branscher. Dessutom känns det mer spännande att undersöka hur samverkan mellan helt olika verksamheter fungerar. Syftet är att belysa motiven bakom samarbetena, samt möjligheter och begränsningar. Undersökningen avser även att analysera effekterna som kan uppstå i dessa konstellationer.

Genom sex stycken fallstudier av samarbeten mellan företag i Stockholm som ingått co-branding med kaféer, har vi försökt belysa hur de har kommit till och fungerar, samt om dessa samarbeten är co-branding överhuvudtaget. Vi har främst använt oss av intervjuer som grund för det empiriska materialet. De samarbeten som ingått i vår undersökning är Akademibokhandelns, SEBs, Planet Fitness och Konserthusets med Wayne’s Coffee, c/o Stockholms med Sosta samt 3s med Espresso House.

Vi har konstaterat att starka varumärken har en stor attraktionskraft och att vissa företag skapar co-branding om de tror att deras varumärken gemensamt kommer att bidra till mer givande associationer. Undersökningen visade att en ny kontext skapades då verksamheterna startade ett samarbete, eftersom de kom från olika branscher. Vi kom också fram till att det i samtliga fall aldrig var kaféerna som tagit initiativ till co-branding. Hos dem som däremot var initiativtagare, var huvudmotiven att ge något extra till sina kunder och att utöka sin kundkrets. Motiven för kaféerna var främst att öka varumärkeskännedomen samt att finnas på bra lägen med ett stort flöde av människor. För de inblandade företagen har samarbetena lett till en del bakslag men mestadels haft positiva effekter.

Abstract:

Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka hur konsumenterna uppfattar varumärkesutvidgningen. Studien har haft fokus på ett fallföretag, Sony Ericsson samt de varumärken (Walkman och Cyber-shot från Sony) som de använder på deras produkter. Vi har samlat in data med konsumenters uppfattningar om co-branding och deras brukande av produkter ur den kategori där de co-brandade varumärkena finns. Vidare har vi sökt efter förklaringar till huruvida det finns någon koppling mellan användandet av Mp3-spelare och digitalkamera i förhållande till betydelsen av varumärkena. Undersökningen har varit helt webbaserad och samlat in över 200 svar varvid 197 har använts i sammanställningen av enkätsvaren.

Vi har använt oss av rådande teorier inom varumärken, varumärkeshantering, varumärkesvärdering och varumärkesfusioner. De teorier som ligger till grund för uppsatsen är Brand Management, Brand Equity, och Co-branding. Detta har tillåtit oss att gå från generella beskrivningar om varumärken fram till hantering och värdering av varumärken för att slutligen nå kärnan av uppsatsens tema det vill säga co-branding.

Resultatet av undersökningen blev att det råder hög kännedom om Mp3-varumärket Walkman med en kännedom på nio av tio tillfrågade, medan drygt fyra av tio kände till digitalkamera- varumärket Cyber-shot. Av de tillfrågade som dessutom använder sig av någon av de respektive produkterna är kännedomen om förknippat varumärke ännu högre. Betydelsen av varumärkena har trots olika kännedom varit ungefär lika stora och legat under det godkända värdet på tre i den femgradiga skalan. Män har prioriterat och värderat Mp3-spelarfunktionen och Walkman högre än motsvarigheten till digitalkamera, medan kvinnornas prioritet har varit hos kamerafunktionen och Cyber-shot varumärket.

Vi har kunnat dra slutsatserna att två starka varumärken som kombineras inte bidrar med lika stor synergi som ett lågvärdesvarumärke får när det kombineras med ett högvärdesvarumärke. Då varumärkena Walkman och Cyber-shot visat sig vara starka som enskilda varumärken samtidigt som Sony Ericsson är ett företag med högt anseende innebär varumärkesutvidgningen för Sony Ericssons mobiltelefoner inga ökade fördelar för Sony Ericsson.

Hos dem som använder Mp3-spelare och digitalkameror har vi kommit fram till att det finns en högre kännedom om varumärkena samt att varumärkena är av större vikt när de co-brandats. Detta tycks bero på att ökad kännedom ger mer kunskap om alternativen på marknaden och skapar därför medvetenhet och preferenser hos konsumenterna.

Slutligen har vi i denna undersökning upptäckt ett samband där de konsumenter som prioriterat funktionerna högt även har haft en hög prioritering av förknippat varumärke.

Dopo un’introduzione sulle alleanze di marketing e sugli aspetti principali della marca, si procede all’esame delle varie definizioni date in letteratura e si fornisce una nuova versione del fenomeno che sempre più spesso è influenzato dal mercato. La trattazione proseguirà approfondendo le modalità con cui le alleanze di marca vengono classificate, partendo dall’analisi delle strategie in cui il fenomeno può esser identificato (strategia di Brand Extension o strategia di Brand Portfolio), la tipologia di relazione che può intercorrere tra i due brand e la sua intensità, e gli attributi che possono esser definiti dalle marche coinvolte nell’alleanza. In conclusione dell’elaborato si presenterà la situazione attuale del fenomeno e le influenze che il mercato sta apportando ad esso, proponendo infine una sua ipotesi di evoluzione del Co-Branding.

Purpose- The purpose of this paper is to explore the influence of co-branding on brand images from consumers’ perspectives and whether the result of co-branding is consistent with the companies’ expectations or not. Design/methodology/approach- A qualitative research approach is adopted to allow a deeper insight into the impacts of Supreme co-branding from consumers’ perspectives. We conducted in-depth exploratory interviews with 7 consumers of Supreme to analyze the effect of co-branding and explain our research questions. Findings- Branding negligence can cause losses in attracting customers. Co-branding strategy has more advantages than disadvantages. Co-branding partners will influence customers’ brand image. Research limitations- The paper only focuses on the fashion industry and the research object is limited to a single brand’s customers, Supreme fans, without exploring the opinions of consumers of other partner brands. In addition, the age and gender of sample subjects are not evenly distributed.

Abstract:
Co-branding är samarbetet mellan två företag som utmynnar i en ny, unik produkt, där kopplingen mellan varumärkena samt gemensam marknadsföring från samarbetsföretagen leder till positiva synergieffekter. Intresset för marknadsföringsstrategin co-branding har ökat i takt med globaliseringen då företagens varumärke riskerar att försvinna i mängden av konkurrerande varumärken och på så sätt förlora viktiga marknadsandelar och varumärkeskännedom. Denna studie ämnar dels öka kunskapen om fenomenet co-branding samt för vilka skäl denna strategi kan vara lämplig att använda och dels hjälpa företag att utröna vilka som kan vara de kritiska framgångsfaktorerna, alltså de absolut viktigaste variablerna för att deras co-brand ska lyckas på marknaden. Vi har intervjuat tre fallföretag inom den svenska modebranschen för att undersöka vilka deras skäl till cobranding är och vilka de kritiska framgångsfaktorerna för dessa samarbeten är. Dessa företag har samtliga genomfört co-branding under de senaste tre åren. Resultatet av studien visar att skälen till co-branding kan vara att skapa en trovärdig varumärkesbreddning, försvara sig mot konkurrenter samt skapa en förhöjd uppfattad kvalitet för konsumenten något som möjliggör prispremium. Resultatet för vilka de kritiska framgångsfaktorerna är bygger på de undersökta co-brandsen i denna studie och har visat sig utmynna i matchning, marknadskommunikation och överförbar brand equity. Vi har genom studien breddat matchningsbegreppet med avseende på personkemi. Vidare har faktorn marknadskommunikation utvidgats med avseende på tillit till sin samarbetspartner gällande att inte bli överkörd i marknadskommunikationen och därmed också poängterat vikten av intern kommunikation. Överförbar brand equity visade sig också vara en kritisk framgångsfaktor, men fallföretagens egen uppföljning brister, vilket gör att studien inte kan undersöka denna faktor närmre. Som ett resultat av studien har differentiering visat sig ha en roll, men inte vara en kritisk framgångsfaktor.

La propuesta incluye un co-branding ​entre una marca deportiva establecida, que ya cuente con un fuerte vínculo emocional con sus clientes, y una universidad peruana con un sólido programa deportivo y cuya población estudiantil sea de, al menos, 50,000 alumnos. Esta propuesta ha sido validada con el mercado a través de un sondeo a nuestro público objetivo y consideramos que tiene viabilidad económica ya que cuenta con un TIR de 35% y un VAN positivo de S/ 2,348,148 considerando el costo de oportunidad del 15%.
We want to develop a business plan with a co-branding allegiance between a sports brand and a university in Peru while developing a “sports fashion” line on campus. We have noticed an elevated use of urban sporting goods worldwide, as well as seen a great opportunity to strengthen the relationship and build an emotional tie between the chosen university, its students, and graduates. We propose a co-branding between a renowned sports brand in Peru that already has a strong emotional attachment with its clients, as well as a Peruvian university with a solid sports program and at least 50,000 students. This proposal was validated in the market while probing our primary target audience; the university’s student body.

Full text
Abstract:
Firms frequently use brand extension strategies to enter new product categories. Another type of entry strategy is co-branding by effectively exploiting the equity of both constituent brands. Co-branding may effectively drive consumer preferences if consumers believe the combination of two brands offers a better solution than either one separately. However, there is also the risk that consumers may get confused with the combination, or have perceptions of strengths regarding one of the brands diluted, leading to the failure of this strategy. While much has been written on brand-category extension, despite its prevalence, the use of co-brands to enter a new category has attracted relatively little attention. In this study, the author models the effects on consumer perceptions and preferences of combining two brand names for a new product. The proposed model provides a mechanism to represent how consumers’ prior attribute beliefs about constituent brands, the extendibility of the brands into the extension category, the compatibility between the constituent brands, and the uncertainty associated with them can jointly determine their preferences for the co-branded product. The contribution that this model enables is a means to study co-branding and new category entry simultaneously, by assessing the drivers of consumer preference for a co-brand in a new product category. An empirical study is designed to test the model, using real brands and hypothetical extensions and co-brands. Theoretical contributions and managerial implications of this study are discussed.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine the trends in co-branding, especially when one brand is linked with another brand through a business strategy, in order to investigate the factors that lead to co-branding as a strategic investment option in the hospitality industry. Of primary interest was whether co-branding strategies are significant issues in the hospitality industry. This study also investigated the relationship between explicit and implicit requirements and timing of entry for co-branding investment. The co-branding investment model developed for this study could be a valuable asset for the hospitality industry. The results of this study indicated that there were some relationships among implicit and explicit requirements and the timing of co-branding entry, especially the finding that restaurateurs who had a strong market share emphasis and long franchising experience were more willing to invest in co-branding. Also restaurateurs who were not satisfied with prior sales performance were more likely to invest in the co-branding concept. We also discovered that investors in co-branding, no matter whether early or late movers, are usually satisfied with the performance of their co-branded stores. This study clearly showed that co-branding investment activities were widely practiced among franchisees, regardless of how many years of experience they had, or if they were large, or small local companies.

Abstract:
Co-creation is an emerging phenomenon that occurs when two or more parties work together to create value. Co-creation, which is a key component to service dominant logic, is present in business to business, business to consumer, and consumer to consumer processes. This dissertation will focus on the business to consumer (and consumer to business) co-creation relationship. Much of the current business to consumer co-creation literature is qualitative in nature, with quantitative work just now beginning to emerge. As such, there is still much about the phenomenon of co-creation that is not understood. When looking at co-creation in the context of brand management, even less is known. In today's age of digital interaction where consumers are gaining more power on a daily basis, practitioners and academics should understand the motivations for consumers to engage brands in co-creation and what the outcomes of these co-creation partnerships are. Because of this, the dissertation contains three essays with the purpose of (1) identifying the motivations for co-creation from consumer and brand perspectives, (2) exploring each of these motivators on their individual relationship to the outcome of co-creation, and (3) understanding how the perceived ability to influence a brand impacts the outcomes of co-creation. Essay 1, titled "Co-creation of brand identities: consumer and industry influence and motivations," aims to develop an understanding of the phenomena of co-creation and how the practice is used in shaping brand identities. Two studies are undertaken to provide insight into co-creation. First, a qualitative study is used to gain insight from key decision makers with responsibility for a brand. Second, a study of millennial consumers is used to develop the antecedents of consumer motivations of co-creation of brand identities. This essay then presents a comprehensive framework that encompasses two models (industry and consumer) of brand identity co-creation. Much of the current literature on co-creation is conceptual or qualitative, and these results provide the analytical support for the building blocks of co-creation theory development. Essay 2, titled "An examination of the factors leading to consumer co-creation of brand," further explores the consumer model of co-creation proposed in Essay 1. Through a series of five studies, the factors of social, fun, brand compatibility, brand commitment, and communication appeal are analyzed individually to determine how each factor impacts the consumers' willingness to engage in co-creation. The results of this study expand the academic knowledge of co-creation, by providing information about why consumers engage with brands in co-creation. Additionally, practitioners will benefit from the descriptive results which provide insight into which motivations a brand should manipulate if it wishes to engage consumers in co-creation. Essay 3, titled "When perceived ability to influence plays a role: brand co-creation in web 2.0," examines how co-creation is impacted by consumers' attributions about a brand's ability to be influenced. Through two studies, focusing on millennial consumers, this essay seeks to understand the attributions that consumers make about brands, what kind of attributions are made, and what the outcome of these attributions are – in terms of co-creation and perceived influence. This essay enhances the current knowledge on the co-creation phenomena and provides insight into the importance of a brand being perceived as being able to be influenced, which will lead to co-creation and increased purchase intentions. In sum, the three essays contained in this dissertation specify a framework for the antecedents of co-creation, an in-depth analysis of those antecedents, and an examination of how perceived influence impacts co-creation. The resulting body of work provides academics and practitioners with a base to better understand the process of co-creation.

Uppsatsen studerar hur en orts varumärkesidentitet förändras då en ny aktör med syfte att locka turister etablerar sig på orten. Den utvalda orten är Trysil där SkiStar köpte skidanläggningen på orten år 2005 och har sedan dess varit ansvarig för vintersäsongen. Destinasjon Trysil, ett destinationssällskap som koordinerar all marknadsföring av Trysil, är ansvarig för marknadsföringen av sommarhalvåret. Varumärkesidentiteten hos Trysil innan uppköpet år 2005 har jämförts med varumärkesidentiteten efter uppköpet och det framgick att det inte har blivit någon nämnvärd förändring. Anledningen till detta har undersökts med hjälp av Smiths (2004) sex kriterier för varumärkesmatchning tillsammans med faktorn kultur, tillsammans omnämnda som förändringsfaktorer. Slutsatsen som dras är att varumärkesidentiteten är densamma då förändringsfaktorerna stämmer väl överrens mellan de båda företagen.

This dissertation centers on the study of brand appropriation, the altering of brand meaning by non-target market consumers who belong to a subculture. Although oftentimes referenced within the social sciences, appropriation is a scantily explored construct within the context of marketing, and specifically branding. Using a multi-method approach, this research establishes a conceptual framework for brand appropriation, develops an in-depth understanding of why and how it occurs, and examines its effect on consumers and their relationships with brands. Overall, this work builds a theoretical foundation for this phenomenon, contributing to literature involving the role of brands within subcultures, the process and effects of non-target market adoption, and gives consideration to uninvited co-creation behavior. Furthermore these studies gives insight for firms which encounter this unexpected consumption behavior, providing understanding that can help inform strategic response.

Full text
Abstract:
Existing co-branding and brand extension research generally coalesces around two important constructs: perceptual fit and attitude toward the brand. Studies in co-branding and brand extension to date have generally emphasized the transference of affective elements of attitude from parent brand to the extension. Researchers and practitioners clearly need to learn more about the transfer of belief, the cognitive elements of attitude. Too little is currently known about whether and how beliefs are actually transferred in co-branding and brand extension applications, particularly in terms of perceptual fit. This dissertation investigates belief transfer and the effect of perceptual fit on belief transfer in co-branding and brand extension scenarios and develops answers to the following research questions: 1.Are different categories of beliefs transferable from parent brand to theextension? 2.How do various sub-dimensions of perceptual fit affect belief transfers fromparent brands to the extension? 3.How do different categories of beliefs affect consumers’ intentions to purchasethe extension products? Categorization Theory was used as the fundamental theory to build the hypotheses. This dissertation involved qualitative studies, belief scale development, and experimental design studies. The results revealed that aesthetic and functional beliefs are positively transferred from parent brand to the extension. The transfer of aesthetic beliefs is affected by the level of brand fit while the transfer of functional beliefs is independent upon the level of any perceptual fit construct. Finally, cognitive structure based on the strength of extension beliefs is more predictive upon the purchase intention. Findings will extend the co-branding and brand extension literature, especially in terms of the pattern of belief transfers that unfold subject to the influence of various perceptual fit constructs. The results will also provide additional insights about the role that perceptual fit plays in influencing categories of consumer beliefs as those beliefs are also influenced by the specific perceptual fits that are presumably transferred to the extension.

Abstract:
In recent years, the fashion industry has set off a trend of co-branding, and co-branding has become a unique marketing strategy for major brands to obtain benefits. However, there are potential risks when brands are selecting joint partners. The literature in this paper addresses both the positive effects of co-branding and how it is viewed from a business and customer perspective related to customer loyalty. Besides, previous researches on how to correctly select joint partners have not been explored in the collected literature. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to provide a deeper understanding of the strategy of choosing partners for brands from a negative aspect under the current trend of brand cooperation,and to propose relevant implications through case analysis. The research method used in this paper is qualitative research by conducting case studies and four focus groups. The findings indicate that communication and connection are the basis for two brands to having success. Furthermore, the enterprise needs to evaluate and estimate the capabilities of the partners by analyzing the external environment and opportunities. Besides, with the help of co-brand partners, brands can make up for their shortcomings and work together to achieve the expected goal.

Titel: Kändisen som rabattkupong Författare: Kristine Berglund, Johanna Münter och Kajsa Stävmo  Handledare: Leif V Rytting  Examinator: Leif Marcusson  Kurs: Kandidatuppsats 15hp. Företagsekonomi, Music and Event Management, Linnéuniversitetet, HT 2016  Exekutiv sammanfattning Vi kan idag konstatera att internettillgången har ökat avsevärt nationellt och globalt under det senaste årtiondet. I takt med att digitaliseringen har ökat är det inte längre en lyx att koppla upp sig online. Följaktligen har likaså medier online mångdubblats och enligt svensk e-handel har majoriteten av företag, tidskrifter och myndigheter onlinenärvaro. Parallellt konstaterar vi att antalet kändisar har ökat som en följd av globaliseringen såväl som digitaliseringen och det finns idag fler plattformar att synas på än någonsin. Företagen och deras varumärken nyttjar det växande nätet och dagens uppsjö av kändisar, vilket därmed har lett till att kändisars medverkan i reklam inte är ett ovanligt fenomen. Vi har därför applicerat kändisreklam på onlinemiljön och detta är uppsatsens övergripande ämne. Marknadsföringskampanjer kan uttrycka sig i många olika former och kanaler men syftet med den här studien har inriktats till enbart kändisars interaktion med reklam via internet. Det finns tidigare forskning kring kändisreklam men hur fenomenet reformeras när det tar form på nätet är ännu ett relativt outforskat ämne vilket vi genom denna uppsats ämnar klargöra.  Syfte och forskningsfrågor Syftet med uppsatsen är att klarlägga och analysera vad som präglar kändisreklam online. Med detta i åtanke har vi parallellt med syftet har vi tagit fram följande två forskningsfrågor:  Vilka styrkor och svagheter finns det med kändisreklam på internet för de inblandade aktörerna? Med vilken målsättning samarbetar företag och kändisar genom onlinereklam? Metod  Uppsatsen är utformad efter en kvalitativ forskningsmetod. Forskningsansatsen präglas av induktion med deduktiva inslag. Den empiriska datan är insamlad genom sju semistrukturerade intervjuer med mycket kunniga personer inom området. Slutsatser  Resultatet visar på ett antal egenskaper som onlinemarknadsföring medför och som inte kan uppnås inom den icke-digitala marknadsföringen. Kändisen som mediakanal, electronic word of mouth, kombinationen av parternas målgrupper och den pricksäkra segmenteringen exemplifieras. Dessa karaktärsdrag och fördelar är målsättningen till varför företag och kändisar samarbetar genom onlinereklam. I studien konstateras också riskerna med kändismarknadsföring online, vilka bland annat är överexponering och negativ påverkan av samarbetspartnerns rykte. Sammanfattningsvis kan vi se att det finns ett stort värde i att använda sig av kändisar i reklam. Vår studie tyder dock på att det finns faktorer som bör tas i åtanke för att kändisreklamen ska nå framgång online. Våra slutsatser kan sammanfattas enligt följande punkter: Krav på äkthet Internet har öppnat upp för en tvåvägsdialog och även möjligheten för konsumenter att granska innehåll vilket har lett till ökade krav på äkthet och transparens. Samarbetet mellan varumärket och kändisen måste kännas äkta och reklamen får inte uppfattas som köpt. Detta är väsentligt då det annars kan leda till ett misslyckat samarbete och skador på varumärkets image. Personifierad kommunikation Med hjälp av internet kan kändisarna använda sina egna kanaler för att nå ut med reklam. Utifrån vår studie går det att utläsa att denna typ av kommunikation upplevs som mer trovärdig och äkta av konsumenten och det är en påtaglig skillnad gentemot traditionell marknadsföring. Detta blir ett sätt att kringgå problemet med att fler och fler blir undvikande mot reklam. Därmed har kändisen fått mer inflytande när det kommer till reklamen då de har möjligheten att påverka dess innehåll vid publicering på deras egna kanaler. Identitetsmatchning Vår studie tyder på att varumärket och kändisen inte får stå för långt ifrån varandra gällande identiteten då detta kan leda till förvirring hos konsumenterna. Negativ publicitet och upplevelser har en tendens att överföras till den andre partnern vilket gör förarbetet viktigt. Detta i kombination med de spridningsmöjligheter som internet medför gör det ännu mer betydande med rätt matchning då negativ publicitet sprids mycket fort på internet.

Abstract:
As organisations try to emerge from the recent economic downturn, they attempt to enter different markets to decrease their dependency on their core market. Due to high costs in R&D and the risk of failure, organisations try to sell the core components of their products to business partners who can incorporate these components into their own offering. Using a qualitative research method, we studied the case of TACHI as a player in the construction equipment industry. The purpose of the research was to find factors for maintaining successful business partnerships within this industry and also the role of co- branding in these business partnerships. After analysing the results of our study and reflecting on the theoretical framework, we concluded that operational compatibility, and commitment and trust were considered as the key factors that were most important in making business partnerships work successfully. Interestingly, players in the construction equipment industry do not consider co-branding as a strategy for entering new markets. However, we discovered a new phenomenon, which is informal branding, and we recommend this as a topic for future research.

En general, una de las habilidades más importantes que debe poseer una empresa es la capacidad de saber cómo es que posiblemente actuarán sus consumidores.

El Co-branding ​es una manera de acercarse al consumidor mediante un acuerdo en el cual se asocia a un único producto o servicio con más de una marca. ​Por otro lado, ​existen diversas versiones sobre las distintas estrategias de co-branding. Sin embargo, en el presente estudio se utilizará una de las estrategias propuestas por Tom Blackett y Bob Boad (2001).

Su elección se debe a que ​esta estrategia es la menos utilizada por las empresas y muchos autores miden el éxito o fracaso del co-branding atendiendo solamente a ciertos criterios parciales como el operativo.
In general, one of the most important skills a business should possess is the ability to know how its consumers are likely to act. To do this, they need to develop good branding strategies. Among the most common are the use of social networks, branded content sites, communication through influencers, the brand experience, brand alliances, among others. Due to today's excessive competition, companies have left their ego behind and are seeking new strategies that were inconceivable in the past, such as brand partnerships. There are different types of brand alliances, such as the following: joint promotions, sponsorships and sponsorships; and Co-branding.   Co-branding is a way of approaching the consumer through an agreement in which a single product or service is associated with more than one brand. On the other hand, there are different versions of the different co-branding strategies. However, in the present study one of the strategies proposed by Tom Blackett and Bob Boad (2001) will be used. This is the strategy based on the endorsement of values, in it one of the brands is intended to include endorsement of the values and brand positioning of one of the partners or both. His choice is due to the fact that this strategy is the least used by companies. Many authors even measure the success or failure of co-branding based only on certain partial criteria such as the operational one.

Abstract:
The increased competitive intensity in several global markets has encouraged firms which traditionally compete, to also collaborate with each other, that is coopetitive branding alliances. Coopetitive branding has, to the best of our knowledge, not been researched from a consumer perspective.Does this mean that consumers remain unaffected when two competitors all of a sudden also collaborate?The purpose of this thesis is to explore how consumers’ brand images can be affected by firms’coopetitive branding strategies. With support from existing alliance literature and an empirical studycomprised of four focus groups, an abductive research approach is adopted.The findings indicate four distinct parameters, which can influence an alliance’s outcome, from theperspective of a consumer’s positive or negative brand image - which is a vital component in consumer-based brand equity. The contradictory nature of simultaneous competition and collaborationmakes coopetitive branding more or less desirable, from a consumer perspective, under differentcircumstances, which need to be acknowledged and managed by the partnering firms. A suggestionfor future research is to examine a wider consumer segment and not only students, to validate thetransferability of our findings.The results contribute to the strategic alliances theory, since existing research has not examinedthe consumer perspective and brand image in relation to coopetitive branding alliances. The resultscan also provide managerial guidelines for firms that wish to understand what elements of a coopetitive branding alliance creates value with consumers.

Abstract:

Co-branding, vilket är en typ av varumärkessamarbete, har på senare tid blivit en populär strategi i strävan efter att skapa ett högre värde för konsumenten samt nå fördelar så som ökade intäkter samt möjligheten att skapa och attrahera lojala kunder. Dock finns det siffror som pekar på att många co-brandingsamarbeten misslyckas. Mot denna bakgrund har syftet med denna studie varit att, utifrån lojala kunders perspektiv, undersöka vilken påverkan ett varumärkessamarbete av typen co-branding kan ha på ett av de två varumärkenas värde. För att undersöka detta har co-brandingsamarbetet mellan Nike och Apple i form av produkten Nike + iPod Sport Kit valts som undersökningsobjekt. En enkätundersökning baserad på Aakers modell har gjorts bland alla ”Apple on Campus” representanter i Sverige. Sammanfattningsvis är vår slutsats att, ur lojala kunders perspektiv, så har co-brandingsamarbetet mellan Nike och Apple haft en positiv påverkan på Nikes varumärkesvärde.

Abstract:

In the beginning of the twenty-first century it became clear what consequences companies’pursuit of economical growth had created on our environment and our social lives. Now theworld is standing in front of a challenge and that is to find a sustainable way to produce,consume and live in order to help our environment and social lives. An example of anorganization that is working towards a sustainable way of living is Fair trade LabelingOrganizations International. They set up international fair trade standards in order to supportthe sustainable development of small producers in poor countries, such as ensuring that theproducers receive prices that cover their costs.Research results indicate that the fair trade label could lower the value of the brand that it isattached to, as well as decrease the original brand’s customer loyalty. While there is also thebelief that fair trade is a positive thing for a brand. Therefore our aim with this dissertation isto look at how the consumer behavior changes when the product is co branded with the fairtrade label. We will therefore look at how co branding with the fair trade label affect differentaspects of consumer behavior. The different aspects that we have used are need recognition,information search, evaluation of alternatives, post purchase behavior and perceived brandpersonality.The study is performed on Dutch consumers by doing a quantitative research. The studyshowed that there are four variables that affect consumer behavior when co branding with fairtrade these are price sensitivity, reason for buying, expected quality and perceived brandpersonality.This study contributes to the lack of research concerning the connection between co brandingwith fair trade and consumer behavior. The conclusions drawn from this study could be usedas guidelines for company managers that are thinking of adding a fair trade label to theproduct, but it could also be used as guidelines for managers that already use fair trade.

Abstract:
This study intended to advance the understanding of brand and value co-creation in sport management. A single exploratory case study of the Ottawa REDBLACKS, the CFL expansion franchise launching in 2014, was conducted. The purpose of the research was to unveil the practices that could lead to brand and value co-creation in the relationships between the Ottawa REDBLACKS and their stakeholders. Semi-structured interviews were performed with 20 participants from the focal organization’s network of stakeholders. The sample was built through a purposeful and snowball sampling method that added to stakeholders identified from the literature. Archival data of media publications, organizational online content, and radio podcasts were also gathered in order to complement the data from the interviews. The deductive and inductive data analysis highlighted five main practices that could lead to brand or value co-creation in the stakeholder-firm relationship performance in a unique sport context: establishing relationships, supporting public relations, sharing resources, enhancing the experience, and driving brand image. The findings explained that joint actions between stakeholders and the REDBLACKS can lead to increases in brand equity and value creation. In the end, the study suggested that future research should investigate the threat of co-destruction.

Full text
Abstract:
Contemporarily, the hosting of mega-events (MEs) is one of several strategies used by cities and governments to bring about improvements in a place s image and recognition. While London, host of the 2012 Olympic Games, is already considered to be a leading global city (e.g. Anholt & GfK Roper, 2011), the potential image benefits to be accrued from hosting the Games may in fact impact more upon internal, domestic perceptions rather than on external, international perceptions (Anholt, Oon, Masure et al., 2008). A key objective, therefore, for those involved in the development and delivery of the 2012 Olympic Games is to further enhance the image of the city (both domestically and internationally) and to minimise the risk of negative image formation (DCMS, 2008). However, image, in the context of MEs, is not an easy component to control, as previous Olympic Games have demonstrated (Shoval, 2002; Smith, 2005). The main purpose of this critical-realism-informed project, underpinned by theoretical-methodological social representation theory (SRT) (Moscovici, 1961, 1984), was to evaluate the domestic image impact of hosting the 2012 Olympics, pre- and post- Games, for the city of London. Based then on social representation theory, and a combination of abductive and retroductive research strategies, a survey was carried out among British citizens to identify their opinions concerning London as a city (or place brand), the Olympics as a ME, and the 2012 Games as a one-off event. Exponential non-discriminative snowball sampling was used to recruit participants (UK citizens, pre-event, n=561, post-event n=215) who completed a mixed-methods questionnaire both before and after the 2012 Olympics were held. The main part of this questionnaire was comprised of randomised free word-association tasks (qualitative) using London, the Olympics and 2012 London Olympics as inductor terms; i.e., Please give the first 10 words that come to mind when you hear the term . Data analysis involved collating the responses of the free word-association tasks into semantic word clusters, with one word (or phrase) representing each theme be that an object, emotion, an opinion, etc. Only words or phrases cited by 15% of participants were used to construct the image of each entity. The next level of analysis involved producing a similarity index and subsequent dendrogram, based on Kendal s correlation coefficient, that established the strength of the connections between the various elements of each social representation. The content and the structure of these pre- and post-event social representations were analysed and then compared to determine whether a.) hosting the 2012 Olympic Games represents an appropriate strategy to develop the city s domestic brand; b.) a co-branding process occurred, expressed by an image transfer, from the event to the place, or vice-versa; and c.) the major differences between the images generated by those living closest to London, compared to those living elsewhere in the UK. While London s overall image does not go through any significant changes pre-to-post event, the results of this study corroborate the value of sporting events in place branding strategies from a domestic perspective, but highlights some limitations, such as the exacerbation of London s pre-existing negative associations. In terms of co-branding, the results do not reveal a co-branding process to have occurred between London and the overall image of the Olympics, but there is some movement of elements from London to the 2012 event (related mainly to pre-Games anticipation) and between the 2012 event and the overall Olympics (related to the latter s unique defining associations). Finally, in terms of the differences between the images generated by those living closest to London, compared to those living elsewhere in the UK, there is a difference which appears to have been facilitated, at least in part, by a 2012-effect, with the event seemingly contributing to London being perceived as generally busier, more expensive and more congested by those living closest to the city, but more vibrant and more multicultural by those living elsewhere in the UK.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the relationship that product fit and brand fit have with consumer preference in co-branding. Product combinations were determined by whether they fit or not using the input from 60 subjects, through surveys. Then, brand combinations were designed based on the input from another set of 60 subjects who decided which brands from those product combinations fit and which did not fit. Four final combinations were formed. The combinations included products and brands that fit, products that fit with brands that did not fit, products that did not fit with brands that fit and products with brands that did not fit. A final questionnaire was distributed to 178 university students to find the preferences on the four combinations. Then, through a conjoint analysis it was possible to find the relationship between product and brand fit and consumer preference. The results revealed that both, product and brand fit, significantly influence consumer preference. It also indicates that the effect of product fit on preference is greater than the effect of brand fit. Finally, the results did not support the expectation that there would be an interaction effect between product and brand fit.
Esta tesis estudia cómo la afinidad de producto y la afinidad de marca, en una estrategia de co-branding, afectan la preferencia del consumidor. Mediante un análisis de regresión se comprueba que ambas influyen de manera estadísticamente significativa sobre la preferencia del consumidor. Se investiga, también, la interacción entre la afinidad de producto y la afinidad de marca y se comprueba que no existe evidencia estadística que lo confirme. Si bien la afinidad de producto y la afinidad de marca afectan de forma significativa a la preferencia por separado, no existe interacción manifiesta entre ellas. Finalmente, se comprueba qué afecta más a la preferencia, la afinidad de producto o la afinidad de marca. Se mide su importancia relativa y se concluye que la afinidad de producto tiene un peso relativo mayor en la preferencia que la afinidad de marca

Abstract:

This dissertation is a case study on the Co-branding between Prada and LG, ”The Prada phone by LG”. The purpose of the study is to broaden the understanding of Co-branding and the effects this type of collaboration can have on a company’s brand. The research questions are: “What effects can a Co-branding have on a company’s Brand Equity?” and “How can these effects be measured?”. The study has been made using questioners, which have been exposed in diagrams. The sampling frame used is the target group for “The Prada phone by LG”. We decided to construct the questioners by using the four parts of Aakers theory of how to measure Brand Equity. The parts that were relevant for the study were brand loyalty, brand knowledge, perceived quality and brand associations. Through this study we have developed a tool to measure Brand Equity and we have established a, for this study, relevant way to measure the effects of a Co-branding. The result of the study showed that the Co-branding ”The Prada phone by LG” has given positive effects on all four parts of Brand Equity on LG: s brand.


Denna uppsats är en fallstudie på Co-brandingen mellan Prada och LG, ”The Prada phone by LG”. Syftet med uppsatsen är att närma oss fenomenet Co-branding och de effekter ett sådant samarbete kan få på ett varumärke. Frågeställningarna är följande; ”Vilka effekter kan Co-branding ge på ett företags Brand Equity?” och ”Hur kan dessa effekter mätas?”. Data har insamlats via frågeformulär och redovisats i diagram. Urvalsramen är målgruppen för ”The Prada phone by LG”. Vid utformandet av frågeformulären har vi utgått ifrån Aakers teori om hur man mäter de fyra delarna av Brand Equity som är relevanta för studien, nämligen varumärkeslojalitet, varumärkeskännedom, kundupplevd kvalitet och varumärkesassociationer. Genom denna studie har vi utvecklat ett mätverktyg för att kunna mäta Brand Equity, dessutom har vi fastställt ett, för denna studie, relevant tillvägagångssätt att mäta effekterna av en Co-branding. Resultatet av undersökningen visar att Co-brandingen ”The Prada phone by LG” har gett positiva effekter på alla de fyra delarna av LGs Brand Equity.
