This study focuses on the concept of "brand loyalty". The concept of brand loyalty is an important issue in the telecommunication industry and is one of the strategies in relationship marketing. This paper reevaluates the comprehensive determinants of brand loyalty, by testing the model proposed in previous research as a determinant of brand loyalty. The determinants of brand loyalty are service quality, customer satisfaction and brand trust. Several previous studies have addressed the relationship between service quality, customer satisfaction, and brand trust with brand loyalty and the study also presents various current research shortcomings and trends for future studies in the telecommunications industry.

This study aims to provide an alternative model for understanding customers’ loyalty behavior by examining the effect of relationship marketing (RM) and service quality on customer satisfaction and customer loyalty moderated with switching costs. A laboratory experiment was carried out to ascertain the controlled variables based on factorial design: 2 (RM: high vs low) x 2 (service quality: high vs low) x 2 (the switching costs: high vs low). The study was based on bank clients as participants, and multiple linear regression was chosen to examine the causal relationship between the variables that are hypothesized. The results indicate that loyalty of banking customers is significantly influenced by RM, service quality and customer satisfaction. In addition, switching costs have a role in moderating customer loyalty. The implications of this study were discussed to give insight into contributions of theoretical and practical aspects, and for future studies

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the inter-relationship of dimensions for consumer-based brand equity and brand loyalty with customer satisfaction as a mediator for oral care segment with special reference to Delhi and connecting areas. Design/methodology/approach For achieving the objective of this study, the theoretical model was tested through structural equation modelling. Research scales from the literature were modified for suitability. Data were collected from 250 respondents. Findings The results indicate that for the oral care segment, customer satisfaction is significantly related to the perceived quality, brand trust, perceived value of cost and lifestyle congruence. Moreover, customer satisfaction partially mediates the relationship of perceived quality and perceived value of cost with brand loyalty, whereas it fully mediates the relationship of lifestyle congruence and brand trust with brand loyalty. Thus, even for low-involvement products, consumer purchases are based on the attributes of the brand rather than being merely habitual. Originality/value The literature supports the direct influence of brand equity on brand loyalty. However, no other study has investigated the mediating role of customer satisfaction on the relationship between brand equity and brand loyalty for low-involvement products.

This article examined the existing body of literature on transaction and relationship marketing. The specific objectives were to develop a conceptual framework to establish the relationship between relationship marketing and customer satisfaction and to examine the components of relationship marketing on the present ever dynamic world of business. The study identified relationship marketing variables and their impact on customer satisfaction. The framework aimed to provide insights into the studies on relationship marketing factors such as trust, commitment, communication, and service quality influence on customer satisfaction. The model provided a basis for empirical studies on the factors of relationship marketing and outcomes of customer satisfaction in developing nations. The study recommends that relationship marketing dimensions such as building customer’s trust, commitment to customers, communication, and service quality should be properly managed and maintained by service providers in Nigeria. This helps in building customer satisfaction and in the long-run customer loyalty.

Favourable word-of-mouth, customer satisfaction and trust are essential elements for strengthening customer brand loyalty to gain a sustainable advantage in a competitive market. However, there is a relative scarcity of research on the impact of word-of-mouth and customer satisfaction on brand loyalty through the mediated role of brand trust in the herbal medicine market. Consequently, this research aimed to assess the impact of word-of-mouth and customer satisfaction on loyalty through the mediating role of trust in the herbal medicine market. A survey questionnaire was utilised to obtain empirical data from a sample of 265 customers through systematic sampling strategy. Covariance-based structural equation modelling was employed to examine the hypotheses formulated to achieve the aim of the study. The research established that positive word-of-mouth, satisfaction, and trust significantly impact loyalty in the herbal medicine market. More importantly, the research indicated that the customers` trust partially mediated the impact of word-of-mouth and customer satisfaction on loyalty in the herbal medicine market. Hence, this research contributes to advancing the extant brand management literature by establishing the intervening role of trust in the relationship between word-of-mouth, satisfaction and loyalty in the herbal medicine market. This research further provides a reference point to encourage the practitioners to develop and track the customers` word-of-mouth, satisfaction and brand trust to enhance loyalty in the industry.

Consumers who have used Apple-branded smartphones have greater probability that they will continue to buy iPhones in the future. This is because customers feel satisfied and have identified the product before making a purchase, creating loyalty for the Apple brand. The purpose of this study is to examine the role of customer satisfaction and brand trust as mediators in the relationship between consumer-brand identification and brand loyalty. Participants in this study consisted of 155 consumers and obtained by using accidental sampling technique. Data analysis used the Hayes Process model 4, which explains that customer satisfaction can act as a mediator in the relationship between consumer-brand identification and brand loyalty, while brand trust cannot act as a mediator. Brand loyalty is not sufficiently formed when consumers can identify the brand well or there is satisfaction with the brand, but rather by the essential emotional bond that makes consumers rely on the brand. However, this has not been fulfilled by the iPhone to make consumers have brand loyalty.
