This paper studies the impact of status consciousness on consumer’s purchase intention and brand equity. It also examines the mediating role of brand associations between status consciousness, purchase intention and brand equity. A self-administered questionnaire was developed and data was collected from a sample of 500 female customers. The results support that status conscious consumers develop associations towards the brands and so they intend to purchase those brands, thus raising the brand equity. The results obtained will help the marketers by focusing on developing strong brand associations for luxurious brands for the status conscious consumers. It will also help in developing marketing strategies specifically designed to promote luxurious brands to increase consumer’s purchase intention and brand equity.

Celebrity endorsement is the main focus of the study where Pakistani and Indian celebrities with their attributes are used for their endorsement effect on purchase intention.

Similar and competitive brands are chosen which are endorsed by Pakistani and Indian Celebrities separately. Results of the study showed that endorsement through local and Indian celebrities has similar and not much significant influence on purchase intention in Pakistan, with no major difference by country origin of celebrity. In the study consumer celebrity relationship is assessed and confirms that attributes of celebrity (Local or Indian) are not much important for intent to purchase for existing products but quality, brand image and brand loyalty are the key factors for intention to purchase.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities on brand image, brand trust, brand loyalty, and purchase intention, based on consumers' perceptions in the context of the retail hypermarkets industry within the Egyptian market. To address the objectives of the study, a quantitative research methodology was used; the data were collected through a questionnaire, resulting in 403 valid responses from customers. The collected data were analysed using SPSS 23 and structural equation modelling on AMOS. The study found that CSR activities influence directly brand image and brand trust and indirectly brand loyalty and purchase intentions through the mediating role of brand image and brand trust. There was no significant direct relationship between CSR and brand loyalty as well as between CSR and purchase intentions. The effect of brand image is stronger than brand trust on both brand loyalty and purchase intention. The effects of brand image and brand trust are stronger in brand loyalty than in purchase intention. The paper adds to the understanding of the pivotal role of CSR activities as well as brand image and trust in affecting a consumer's intention to purchase decision, which has not been studied extensively in the Egyptian business to customer relationship markets in the retail industry. The study emphasises the importance of consumers' perceptions of CSR in achieving the main outcomes of relationship marketing (brand image, brand trust, brand loyalty and purchase intention). Retailers are progressively anxious to contribute to social and environmental domestic and international markets. Marketers should develop more consistent and effective social responsibility programmes to close any gaps between the retailer and the consumer perspective on CSR initiatives, and enhance the coordination between CSR activities incorporated into retailers' corporate strategic plans and their consumers' perceptions of these activities.

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has demonstrated the positive influence on consumer attitudes and buying behaviors. However the questions worth investigating are “how different CSR types influence consumer purchase intention?” Also, how does firm’s overall CSR lead to consumer purchase intention? The purpose of this investigation is to examine the intervening mechanism between CSR and consumer purchase intention. We expect consumer support for responsible business (CSRB) mediates the relationship between CSR and consumer purchase intention. We tested the hypotheses with data from dyad sample of 200 firms’ representatives and consumers from apparel industry in China. The result supported the hypothesized relationships between CSR, CSRB, and consumer purchase intention. Findings of this study contribute to the CSR and consumer attitude research. This study also discusses the theoretical and practical implications of the findings.
