Abstract

One of the important strategies to build powerful consumer based-brand equity (CBBE) for products is to connect them to celebrities. The use of this key marketing strategy is growing around the world. The present study aimed to explore the effects of endorser credibility and endorser congruence on CBBE while considering the mediating role of congruence and the moderating role of brand type (strong/weak). The statistical population and sampling method of the study is the buyers of megamalls in Tehran and simple random sampling respectively. Totally, 186 questionnaires were completed. The data analysis and structural equation modeling approach in SmartPLS software was used to test the hypotheses. The results of the hypothesis tests showed that celebrity endorser’s credibility had a significant positive effect on endorser congruence and CBBE. In addition, endorser congruence had a positive impact on CBBE. The findings reveal that in the statistical sample of the present study, the effect of the variable celebrity endorser on congruence and CBBE did not differ from the perspective of brand type (strong/weak) and that this variable had a positive and significant effect on paths between ‘celebrity credibility-celebrity congruence’ and ‘celebrity credibility-CBBE’. From these findings, important theoretical and managerial implications have been derived.

品牌类型对代言人信誉、代言人一致性和消费者品牌资产关联的调节作用分析
为产品建立强大的基于消费者的品牌资产(CBBE)的重要策略之一是将其与名人联系起来。这一关键营销策略在世界各地的应用正在增长。本研究旨在探讨代言人可信度和代言人一致性对CBBE的影响,同时考虑一致性的中介作用和品牌类型(强/弱)的调节作用。研究的统计人群和抽样方法分别是德黑兰大型购物中心的购买者和简单随机抽样。共完成问卷186份。使用SmartPLS软件中的数据分析和结构方程建模方法来检验假设。假设检验结果表明,名人代言人的可信度对代言人一致性和CBBE有显著的正向影响。此外,背书一致性对CBBE有积极影响。研究结果表明,在本研究的统计样本中,从品牌类型(强/弱)的角度来看,可变名人代言人对一致性和CBBE的影响没有差异,并且该变量对“名人可信度-名人一致性”和“名人可信度CBBE”之间的路径产生了积极而显著的影响。从这些发现中得出了重要的理论和管理启示。
