This exploratory article aims to evaluate the effectiveness of case study competitions in promoting the brand equity of sponsors and organizers. The article compares the managerial objectives with the responses of participating students who are the targeted audience of the marketing communications of the sponsors and examines the alignment between managerial objectives and the perceptions of participants. The quantitative data using surveys is collected from sponsors and organizers, and participants in the competition. The data is analysed using frequency tables, descriptive statistics, F-tests for equality of variances and T-tests for equality of means. The findings suggest that managers attach high importance to brand awareness (cognitive aspect), brand images and attitude (affective aspect) and less importance to brand loyalty (behavioural aspect) to enhance brand equity through sponsoring academic competitions. However, participants' responses indicate that the brand awareness aspect is not effectively realized as compared to other brand equity dimensions.

In India the private label brands (PLBs) are growing at a faster pace than retail. This supposes that PLBs should have brand equity. Although brand equity is one of the most important aspects of a brand in creating competitive advantage, earlier studies have not paid much attention to measuring and conceptualising the factors influencing the brand equity of private label brands. Many researches have looked into the consumer based brand equity (CBBE) of national brands only and hence this study was taken up to examine the dimensions of consumer based brand equity for private label brands including the impact of store image on brand equity.An empirical study was done considering survey instrument from previous study of Girard et al. (2017).

This study aimed to, firstly, validate the model for use in online booking platforms, secondly, to measure the reliability of the data, and finally, to measure brand loyalty across twelve antecedents in online booking platforms. Online questionnaires were distributed via an online link by the booking managers of the game reserve, and 131 responses were captured; this represented a statistically adequate sample as per the KMO measure (.741). The descriptive statistics, using a 5-point Likert scale, showed that Brand trust (4.03) and Customer satisfaction (3.96) are the most important brand loyalty antecedents, while Culture (2.34) is the least important brand loyalty antecedent in an online booking platform. Exploratory factor analysis validated the questionnaire for online booking platforms, while Cronbach’s alpha coefficient (.701) indicated that the reliability of the data is acceptable. Regarding latent variable identification, Brand quality and Brand relationship are two most important factors, respectively, explaining variance of 13.1% and 8.7%. The study culminated in a model to measure and manage brand loyalty of online booking platforms. This model can be operationalized for use by managers, researchers, and academia.

The purpose of this study was to determine the significance of the effect of brand equity (brand awareness, quality impression, brand association, brand loyalty) of Oriflame cosmetic products on consumer purchases in Mataram City. The population of this study are consumers who make real purchases and consumers who have tried through a demo conducted by personal selling Oriflame cosmetic products. Sampling of 50 consumers really fulfills the requirements for a representative sample. The data collection techniques used were interview techniques and documentation techniques. This analysis is used because in this study there is more than one independent variable. This analysis is used to determine the influence of brand equity (brand awareness, quality impression, brand association, and brand loyalty) on consumer purchase desires (decisions). The results showed that: 1) Brand awareness and perceived quality factors have a significant influence to form an image and influence consumer decisions in purchasing oriflame products; 2) The factors of brand association and consumer loyalty do not have a meaningful influence on purchasing decisions for Oriflame products. This means that brand association and brand loyalty are not the dominant factors that influence consumers to use Oriflame products even though these factors have an influence but the effect is small; and 3) Brand equity has a strong influence on consumer decisions in purchasing Oriflame products. This means that the stimuli attached to the oriflame product create a special attraction that attracts consumers to buy and use oriflame products.
