BRAND EQUITY MEASUREMENT

BY: MEHAL R VICHHIVORA SATYAJIT I.

WHAT IS BRAND EQUITY?

The value premium that a company realizes from a product with a recognizable name as compared to its generic equivalent. The additional money that consumers are willing to spend to buy a branded product rather than an unbranded product is brand equity. Brand equity is strategically crucial, but famously difficult to quantify. Brand equity is one of the factors which can increase the financial value of a brand to the brand owner, although not the only one.

BRAND EQUITY MEASUREMENT

Elements that can be included in the valuation of brand equity include : changing market share, profit margins, consumer recognition of logos and other visual elements, brand language associations made by consumers, consumers' perceptions of quality and other relevant brand values.

PURPOSE OF MEASURING BAND EQUITY


The purpose of brand equity metrics is to measure the value of a brand a brand comes to embody a promise about the goods it identifiesa promise about quality, performance, or other dimensions of value, which can influence consumers choices among competing product. When consumers trust a brand and find it relevant, they may select the offerings associated with that brand over those of competitors, even at a premium price. When a brand's promise extends beyond a particular product, its owner may leverage it to enter new markets.

Methodologies

I.

David Aakers model David Aaker, a marketing professor and brand consultant, highlights ten attributes of a brand that can be used to assess its strength. These include : Differentiation, Satisfaction or Loyalty, Perceived Quality, Leadership or Popularity, Perceived Value, Brand Personality, Organizational Associations, Brand Awareness, Market Share, Market Price and Distribution Coverage.

II. Brand Equity Index (Moran): Marketing executive Bill Moran has derived an index of brand equity as the product of three factors: Effective Market Share is a weighted average. It represents the sum of a brand's market shares in all segments in which it competes, weighted by each segment's proportion of that brand's total sales. Relative Price is a ratio. It represents the price of goods sold under a given brand, divided by the average price of comparable goods in the market. Durability is a measure of customer retention or loyalty. It represents the percentage of a brand's customers who will continue to buy goods under that brand in the following year

III Brand Asset Valuator (Young & Rubicam): Young & Rubicam, a marketing communications agency, has developed the Brand Asset Valuator, a tool to diagnose the power and value of a brand. In using it, the agency surveys consumers' perspectives along four dimensions: Differentiation: The defining characteristics of the brand and its distinctiveness relative to competitors. Relevance: The appropriateness and connection of the brand to a given consumer. Esteem: Consumers' respect for and attraction to the brand. Knowledge: Consumers' awareness of the brand and understanding of what it represents

IV Brand Valuation Model (Interbrand): Interbrand, a brand strategy agency, draws upon financial results and projections in its own model for brand valuation. It reviews a company's financial statements, analyzes its market dynamics and the role of brand in income generation, and separates those earnings attributable to tangible assets (capital, product, packaging, and so on) from the residual that can be ascribed to a brand. It then forecasts future earnings and discounts these on the basis of brand strength and risk. The agency estimates brand value on this basis and tabulates a yearly list of the 100 most valuable global brands.

V. Conjoint Analysis: Marketers use conjoint analysis to measure consumers' preference for various attributes of a product, service, or provider, such as features, design, price, or location. By including brand and price as two of the attributes under consideration, they can gain insight into consumers' valuation of a brandthat is, their willingness to pay a premium for it.
