ABOUT BRAND EQUITY

The reallocation of the marketing budget concerned many marketers who still viewed media advertising
as the primary tool for brand building and saw sales promotion programs as little more than gimmicks
that contributed little to brand equity.

The idea of brand equity arose in America in the 1980s after a bout of cut-throat discounting
by consumer-goods companies, which prompted them to look for less-savage and more
enduring ways to boost sales. Patiently building brands became the preferred alternative.
They would allow companies to hold on to customers, win new ones and provide launching
pads for new products. David Aaker, a business-school professor who helped spread the
idea, identified three main components of brand equity: consumers’ awareness of a brand,
the qualities they associate with it (BMW summons up German engineering, Ryanair says
“cheap”) and loyalty. The arguments now are partly over how important each element is.
