Item type:Publication, Sharing is entertaining: the impact of consumer values on video sharing and brand equity(Emerald Group Holdings Ltd., 2022-02-24)The study aims to ascertain the impacts of entertainment, social and functional values on the likelihood of sharing commercial videos online and verify whether consumers' likelihood to share videos impacts brand attachment and brand equity. Design/methodology/approach: A survey was conducted with 368 university students who watched videos of five companies on YouTube Brazil. The electronic form had 24 questions covering the constructs entertainment value, social value, functional value, likelihood to share, brand attachment and brand equity. The structural equation modeling (SEM) tested the survey´s hypothetical model. Findings: The entertainment value and the social value had positive impacts on the likelihood to share commercial videos online. Moreover, the likelihood to share videos positively impacted brand attachment and brand equity. Finally, brand attachment had a positive effect on brand equity. Practical implications: Entertainment and social values affect the likelihood to share commercial videos, stimulating consumer engagement with brands through interactive marketing on SNSs. Therefore, companies should produce fun videos that add social value to consumers to go viral, positively influencing brands. Finally, another contribution is the impact of video sharing on brand attachment. Previous studies have contemplated only the opposite relationship between these constructs. Originality/value: This research adds value to interactive marketing by investigating consumers' behaviors, their interactivity in social networking sites (SNSs) and the impacts on brands. It is the only study that simultaneously contemplates the effects of entertainment, social and functional values on the likelihood to share commercial videos online and demonstrates its impact on brand attachment and brand equity. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Passive consequences of brand hate: the mediating role of brand avoidance(2022-06-29)This study aims to determine the antecedents of brand patronage reduction as a consequence of brand hate, demonstrating the mediating effect of brand avoidance on passive/flight consequences of brand hate, showing their impact on a firm's brand equity. A survey was carried out with a sample of 307 consumers of mobile phone operators. The structural model was analysed using SmartPLS3. The results demonstrated that brand hate is significantly relevant in its impact on patronage reduction and brand equity. The model explained 57,9% of patronage reduction as a consequence of brand hate in a nomological explanation chain of constructs. The research demonstrated how passive/flight behaviours are generated by brand hate, indicating to managers that brand avoidance would be developed and must be prevented in order to reduce the negative impacts on patronage reduction and brand equity. Despite the relevance of negative consumer-brand relationships, no study has adequately explained patronage reduction as a consequence of brand hate. Furthermore, this is the first study to demonstrate the relevant role of brand avoidance, acting as a mediator in the relationship between brand hate and its consequences, presenting negative impacts on patronage reduction and brand equity. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Mediation of brand reputation and image in the relationship between perceived corporate social responsibility and brand equity and loyalty of technology companies among Generation Z: The moderating role of gender(Cogent OA, 2024-01-01)This study examines whether the effects of perceived corporate social responsibility (PCSR) on brand equity and brand loyalty are jointly mediated by brand image and brand reputation in the technology industry. It also explores the moderating role of gender in these relationships. The sample consisted of 420 Generation Z members from Lima, selected through gender-stratified random sampling. The study focuses on the technology sector, represented by the large FAANG companies (Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, and Google), justified by their high stock market visibility and relevance in business strategy research. Data were collected using a 21-item instrument, and PLS-SEM structural equation modeling was employed to explain brand equity and brand loyalty, as well as to validate the items and hypotheses. The results support positive effects between PCSR, brand equity, and brand loyalty, highlighting the previously unexplored mediation of brand image. Additionally, it was found that gender moderates the relationship between PCSR and brand loyalty, with a stronger effect observed among women. The Hierarchy of Effects Model, which examines direct effects, mediators, and moderators, is proposed as the theoretical framework. Practical implications suggest that brand managers should recognize the mechanisms linking PCSR, brand equity, and brand loyalty to effectively attract Generation Z. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Why Is Sharing Not Enough for Brands in Video Ads? A Study About Commercial Video Ads' Value Drivers(Emerald Publishing, 2023-11-02)The main goal of viral marketing is to affect brands positively. But most studies concern the causes of an ad going viral, not its impact on brands. In this sense, this study aims to demonstrate and compare video ads' value drivers on brands and sharing, determining which antecedents maximize results on each, enabling the best ad performance for advertisers. Design/methodology/approach: A survey was conducted with 368 respondents who watched viral video ads from five global companies on YouTube. The proposed model was tested using structural equation modeling in SmartPLS4. Findings: The results of this study demonstrated that product category involvement is essential for viral advertising. Furthermore, the entertainment value is the most relevant antecedent of sharing, but it does not affect brand equity; it is the social value responsible for brand equity. Practical implications: Marketing managers should create ads that simultaneously generate entertainment and social values, maximizing sharing and branding effects. However, if only one of the two effects (brand/share) is achieved, then the advertiser will fail to obtain maximum performance. Originality/value: The mainstream of viral marketing research is focused on antecedents of sharing. However, sharing is not enough to provide brand effects and return on investment of advertisement. This study reveals that different consumers’ values drive sharing and brand equity, suggesting that firms should consider a dual value generation strategy regarding the performance of viral video ads. On the other hand, this research conciliates the extant literature about the phenomena with the importance of product category involvement. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The bridge between “click” and loyalty in food delivery apps(Emerald Publishing Limited, 2025-01-01)Customer centricity is often mistaken for market orientation. Although there are significant differences, many companies treat the terms as interchangeable. Meanwhile, the market for food delivery apps (FDA), despite being large and appealing in terms of numbers, faces retention challenges and intense competition. In this context, this study aims to contribute to the field by testing a theoretical model that examines the effects of customer centricity on food quality, brand equity and perceptions of price fairness as well as its influence on loyalty. Design/methodology/approach A survey was conducted with 377 consumers, and the data were analyzed using the R program to test the hypothetical model using partial least squares structural equation modeling. Findings The results reveal that customer centricity has a significant impact on both brand equity (0.687) and loyalty (0.672), highlighting its crucial role in a firm's overall performance. The results also suggest that customer centricity can enhance perceptions of food quality and price fairness, indicating its ability to align company decisions with consumer needs. Furthermore, these constructs collectively explain 75.9% of loyalty, underscoring the model's relevance for understanding consumer behavior in the food delivery market. Practical implications This study emphasizes that prioritizing customer centricity is crucial for retention. Managers should implement loyalty programs and differentiated offers to meet the needs of customers, thereby improving perceived food quality, brand equity and price fairness, combating churn. Originality/value This is the first study to reveal the relevance of customer centricity for online food delivery apps and demonstrates its significant capacity to drive loyalty, particularly in the context of food delivery apps in developing countries.2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, More than functionality: how technological perception drives price fairness and brand equity in food delivery(Emerald Publishing Limited, 2025-12-16)The technology used in the food delivery app (FDA) sector is extensively studied regarding its functionality and practicality. However, less attention is given to understanding how this technology affects consumer perceptions. This study aims to analyse, from the consumer's perspective and utilising the expectation-confirmation theory (ECT), how technology shapes their perceptions of price fairness, experiences and the influence of these factors on brand equity. Design/methodology/approach A survey with 315 respondents was applied in this study. The proposed theoretical model was evaluated using the SEMinR package in the R programming language, which is indicated for partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) methods. Findings The results confirm that technological perception alone explains 32.9% of the perception of FDA price fairness. This perception, combined with price fairness, explains 61.8% of the customer experience. As a result, the model explains 68.7% of brand equity. Originality/value This is the first study to analyse in an integral model the impacts of customers' technological perceptions on the FDA brand, demonstrating that it is not just about offering low-price policies, but about practicing price fairness and valuing the customer experience, as this will have a direct impact on brand equity.1
