Et viktig mål i merkeledelse er å posisjonere merket med relevante og unike assosiasjoner i kundenes hukommelse. Styrken på merkeassosiasjonene – hvor nært en assosiasjon er koblet til merket i hukommelsen – er svært viktig i merkeledelse. Det er imidlertid en utfordring å finne gode metoder for å måle assosiasjonsstyrke. Forskning og eksisterende praksis i markedsanalyse tilbyr få forslag til hvordan man kan måle assosiasjonsstyrke på en korrekt praktisk og teoretisk måte. Denne artikkelen tilbyr en løsning på dette problemet og foreslår måling av reaksjonstid basert på en trestegs analyseprosedyre. Metoden er basert på faktisk kognitiv tilgjengelighet av assosiasjoner i kundenes hukommelse, og hvordan denne tilgjengeligheten slår ut på individuelle reaksjonstider. Konkret produserer denne metoden forskjeller i rapportert hastighet (i millisekunder) mellom assosiasjoner, der kortere reaksjonstider indikerer en sterkere merkeassosiasjon. To studier benyttes for å illustrere metoden. I den første studien testes selskapsassosiasjoner til en stor norsk merkevare som gjennom responstider får innsikt i hvilke assosiasjoner som er sterkest koblet til merket. I den andre studien illustreres metoden ved å teste en rekke ulike sjokolademerkers merkeposisjoner. Resultatene viser at Kvikk Lunsj har den sterkeste posisjonen blant de ulike sjokolademerkene målt i reaksjonstid. Sammenfattet gir disse to studiene gode eksempler på hvordan den foreslåtte metoden kan benyttes, analyseres og rapporteres i praksis.

Brand placements have become popular as an alternative brand communication tool for many companies. Previous research on brand placements has mainly considered the communication effects of brands placed in television programmes, films and computer games. To our knowledge, only one recently published article has looked into brand placements in narrative fiction. Hence, the current article is among the first papers to study the effects of brand placements in narrative fiction, and among the first papers to investigate consumers’ attitudes towards such placements. The basic proposition is that brand prominence (high plot integration versus low plot integration) is positively related to favourable attitudes towards the brand. Additionally, we propose that plot integration interacts with reader involvement in the text, thereby increasing the importance of visible and dominant brands placed in the text for high-involvement consumers. An experiment manipulating plot integration and reader involvement supports our proposed main and interaction effects.

Advertisers face several message options when they position a new brand in well-established categories. Functional benefit claims versus experiential claims represent two options. Functional claims focus on tangible attributes and benefits, whereas experiential claims focus on promises of experiences the consumer should expect from the new brand. In this paper, we present the results from two experiments testing the persuasiveness of ads promising experience versus the persuasiveness of ads promising functional benefits of a new entrant. In the first experiment, we found that involvement moderates the effect of claim type on attitude toward a new category entrant in retail banking. This finding was replicated and extended in a second experiment using ski resorts as the context. Our findings suggest that functional benefit claims outperform experiential claims in high-involvement situations and that the strength of message arguments can be just as important as the framing choice. The research also shows that the two advertising claim types elicit different cognitive responses: functional claims trigger mostly semantic memory, whereas experiential claims trigger more episodic memories.

Brand extensions are attractive to companies because they provide an opportunity to take advantage of existing brand names when entering into new product categories. However, at times brand managers identify growth categories beyond the reach of their brands. In these cases, the current literature recommends introducing a new brand name, even though it is acknowledged that this strategy carries substantial financial risk. This paper proposes an alternative approach, and introduces the conceptual idea that brands may be stretched farther using a series of intervening brand extension – sequential extensions – bridging the gap between the parent brand and the target category. Keywords: brand extension, sequential extensions, associative networks

Brand association strength – how closely a brand association is connected to the brand in consumer memory – is of vital importance in brand management. However, finding practical methods in measuring association strength is a problem for many companies. Previous research offers few suggestions on how to measure association strength based on a theoretically and conceptually consistent approach. Traditionally brand association strength is measured in qualitative research, but these results can be very misleading. To tackle this problem, the current paper suggests using response time latencies combined with a three-step analysis procedure to measure strength. This quantitative method is based on the consumer’s actual cognitive accessibility of brand associations, offers more theoretically valid results and is easy to use for brand managers. Two studies are reported to illustrate the methodology and show how brand association strength could be measured, analyzed and reported.
