Brand Equity
Brand Equity
Brands represent enormously valuable pieces of legal property, capable of influencing consumer behavior, being bought and sold, and providing the security of sustained future revenues to their owner.
The value directly or indirectly accrued by these various benefits is often called brand equity (Kapferer, 2005; Keller, 2003)
Brand mewakili secara kuat dari bagian2 berharga atas kepemilikan sesuatu yang sah secara hukum (legal property), kemampuan untuk mempengaruhi perilaku pelanggan, kemampuan untuk dibeli dan terjual, dan kemampuan untuk terus menerus menghasilkan keuntungan di masa depan bagi pemilik brand. Nilai yang
secara langsung maupun tidkak langsung dari benefit suatu merek ini disebut dengan Brand Equity.

BRAND EQUITY
A basic premise of brand equity is that the power of a brand lies in the minds of consumers and what they have experienced and learned about the brand over time.
Brand equity
can be thought of as the "added value" endowed to a product in the thoughts, words, and actions of consumers. There are many different ways that this added value can be created for a brand. Similarly, there are also many different ways the value of a brand can be manifested or exploited to benefit the firm (i.e., in terms of greater revenue and/or lower costs). In simple terms, “brand equity” is a construct that is designed to reflect the real value that a brand name holds for the products and services that it accompanies.
Brand equity is considered important because brands are believed to be strong influencers of critical business outcomes, such as sales and market share. For example, Inc. Magazine notes that “branded products invariably command a higher price than so-called "generic" or "store brands"—even when the product is itself a commodity like sugar. In such cases the higher price is due almost entirely to the power of the brand.
Brand equity, like most constructs, has been defined and measured in numerous ways. It is sometimes understood from the perspective of tangible financial assets of a firm. However, from a marketing research perspective, brand equity is often viewed conceptually- as a framework for understanding the power of the intellectual and emotional associations consumers have with particular named products and services. In contrast to the absolute dollar valuations that underscores the direct financial perspective; marketing researchers seek to measure and understand brand equity for strategic positioning and planning.

Professor Kevin Keller, of Dartmouth College, lists the following seven
benefits of brand equity
1. Be perceived differently and produce different interpretations of product performance (dipersepsikan berbeda dari produk lain);
2. Enjoy greater loyalty and be less vulnerable to competitive marketing actions (pelanggan menjadi loyal dan jarang dipengaruhi oleh aktivitas marketing kompetitor);
3. Command larger margins and have more inelastic responses to price increases and elastic responses to price decreases (menetapkan batasan yang lebih lebar dan memancing respon yang lebih kaku terhadap kenaikan harga dan respon yang luwes terhadap penurunan harga);
4. Receive greater trade cooperation and support (mudah meminta kerjasama dan dukungan dari pihak lain) 5. Increase marketing communication effectiveness (meningkatkan efektivitas aktivitas marketing komunikasi) 6. Yield licensing opportunities (kesempatan untuk mendapatkan lisensi produk);
7. Support brand extensions (mendukung pelebaran/perluasan merek).

Modeling & Measuring Brand Equity
Brand equity has been defined and measured by experts from both academia as well as for-profit companies. In fact, many research agencies have developed their own brand equity models that are executed in partnership with end-user researchers. As Professor Kevin Keller, of Dartmouth College, observes “although the details of different approaches to conceptualize brand equity differ, they tend to share a common core: All definitions typically either implicitly or explicitly rely on brand knowledge structures in the minds of consumers- individuals or organizations- as the source or foundation of brand equity.” Opinion researchers define and measure brand equity in terms of the knowledge consumers have of a brand. To this end, numerous published models and measurements of brand equity are available.
Notably, measuring brand equity may be only a single piece of a more comprehensive brand research program. Likewise, an organization’s brand research program may be only a single facet of the larger research and insights program. Review MRA’s other resources for a better understanding of how a comprehensive research and insights program fits together.
