Consumer-Brand Identification and Brand Loyalty: Analysis on Customer Satisfaction and Brand Trust as Mediators

Participants in this study consisted of 155 consumers and obtained by using accidental sampling technique.

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.
