Building Successful Brands

Frank Martell
President, ACNielsen Asia Pacific

The concept of branding a product began as early as the sixteenth century. Since those early times, building and maintaining strong brands have been the hallmarks of all successful companies. Building the right relationship between the brand and its consumers creates successful brands. Brands with the greatest equity are the most profitable because their customers are generally more loyal and willing to pay higher prices for the product, and have a closer relationship with the brand.

Introducing new products and building strong brands is an imperative for successful companies. Companies must work harder to build and, importantly, to maintain their brands. Building the right relationship between the brand and its consumers is crucial. In this issue of Insights, we have drawn on ACNielsen's 80 years’ experience in market research and our proprietary brand health research models, to provide you with some insights into brand health management.

In this issue we review a number of case studies demonstrating how market share can be driven by strengthening the underlying drivers of brand equity and the use of other marketing techniques. In addition, we provide insight into the decision-making process of consumers and what characterises a ‘good’ brand. We also outline the rapid and successful growth of local brands in fast emerging China.

For retailers, building store equity is increasingly more important as consolidation and the expansion of the modern trade increases. Through our ACNielsen ShopperTrends study, for the first time we are able to demonstrate the importance of store equity to retailers by examining consumer loyalty and their willingness to pay a premium to shop there. We look at the drivers of store equity, how to build store level customer loyalty and chain level brand awareness.

ACNielsen is committed to help our clients achieve sustainable competitive advantage through our large array of research techniques and services, including brand equity management systems, and our unmatched geographic footprint. We are here to serve you as you build your business and your brands.
