Defining A "Brand": Beyond The Literature With Experts' Interpretations

de Chernatony, Leslie, Dall'Olmo Riley, Francesca·1998·Journal of Marketing Management

Abstract

There are many definitions of the "brand", yet a comprehensive theory of the brand construct is still missing. This paper is a step towards developing a theory for the brand construct. Through analysis of the literature and focused interviews with 20 leading edge brand consultants, we propose a concept of the brand as a multidimensional construct, matching a firm's functional and emotional values with the performance and psychosocial needs of consumers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
