  4. Comparative Methods • Brand-based comparative approaches • Marketing-based comparative approaches • Conjoint analysis

  5. Brand-Based Approaches • The marketing element under consideration is fixed. • Consumer response is examined based on changes in brand identification. • Application example: Blind testing • Advantage: Isolates the value of the brand • Disadvantage: The totality of what is learned depends on how many applications are examined.

  6. Marketing-Based Approaches • The brand is held fixed and consumer response is examined based on changes in marketing programs. • Applications: Explore price premiums’ effect on switching, consumer evaluations of marketing activities, brand extensions, etc. • Advantage: Ease of implementation • Disadvantage: Difficult to determine whether consumer responses are caused by brand knowledge or generic product knowledge

  7. Conjoint Analysis • A survey-based multivariate technique that enables marketers to profile the consumer decision process with respect to products and brands • Helps researchers determine the trade-offs consumers make between brand attributes • Applications: Assess advertising effectiveness and brand value; analyze brand/price trade-off • Advantage: Allows for different brands or different aspects of the product to be analyzed simultaneously • Disadvantage:May violate consumers’ expectations based on what they already know about brands

  8. Holistic Methods • Attempt to place an overall value on the brand in either abstract utility terms or concrete financial terms • Net out various considerations to determine the unique contribution of the brand • Holistic methods: • Residual approaches • Valuation approaches

  9. Residual Approaches • Examine the value of the brand by subtracting consumers’ preferences based on physical product attributes alone from their overall brand preferences • Advantage: Useful benchmark for interpreting brand equity, especially from a financially oriented perspective • Disadvantage: Static view. Limited diagnostic value for strategic decision making

  10. Valuation Approaches • Attempt to place a financial value on brand equity for accounting purposes • Useful in cases of mergers and acquisitions, brand licensing, fund raising, and brand management decisions • Valuation approaches: • Accounting background • Historical perspectives • General approaches • Interbrand’s brand valuation methodology

  11. Accounting Background • Intangible assets are typically lumped under the heading of goodwill and include things such as patents, trademarks, and licensing agreements, as well as “softer” considerations such as the skill of the management and customer relations. • In an acquisition, the goodwill item often includes a premium paid to gain control, which, in certain instances, may even exceed the value of tangible and intangible assets.

  12. Historical Perspectives • In Australia Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation included a valuation of some of its magazines on its balance sheets in 1984. • British firms used brand values primarily to boost their balance sheets. • In the United States, generally accepted accounting principles (blanket amortization principles) mean that placing a brand on the balance sheet would require amortization of that asset for up to 40 years. Such a charge would severely hamper firm profitability; as a result, firms avoid such accounting maneuvers.

  13. General Approaches • In determining the value of a brand in an acquisition or merger, firms can choose from three main approaches: • Cost approach: Brand equity is the amount of money that would be required to reproduce or replace the brand • Market approach: The present value of the future economic benefits to be derived by the owner of the asset • Income approach: The discounted future cash flow from the future earnings stream for the brand

  14. Interbrand’s Brand Valuation • Assumes that brand value is the present worth of the benefits of future ownership • Follows five valuation steps: • Market segmentation • Financial (role of branding) analysis • Demand (brand strength) analysis • Competitive benchmarking • Brand value calculation • Brand value calculation : Calculate the brand value as the net present value (NPV) of the forecast brand earnings, discounted by the brand discount rate
