Abstract

This study extends the theoretical understanding of the positive and negative emotions of consumers towards foreign vs local brands by providing conceptualisation and measurement of foreign brand admiration and passive brand hate towards local brands. The study incorporates hedonic value dominance and home country image, which is the image of a consumer?s own country. The results show that young consumers in a developing country are both passive brand haters towards local brands and foreign brand admirers. When they possess an inferior image of their home country, they show admiration towards foreign brands. The positive emotion is however mainly influenced by hedonic value dominance, which also have a great contribution to passive brand hate toward local brands. As they have strong negative emotion, they tend to admire foreign brands that offer more hedonic values. In comparison to the negative emotion, the positive emotion indeed has a much stronger contribution toward willingness to pay more for foreign brands. The paper provides useful managerial implications for foreign brand and local brand owners to compete in the country?s market place.Keywords:Hedonic value dominance, Foreign brand admiration, Passive brand hate, Home country image* Department of Management, the University of Mataram.

Abstract

This study examines relationships between foreign brand halo effect and beauty consciousness on self-brand connection in beauty consumption. It also investigates the moderating role of age on these relationships. Data is gathered through an online survey focusing on two South Korean beauty (K-beauty) brands. The results contribute to consumer–brand relationships and international marketing literatures. There is no difference between young adult female and mature adult female consumers in the influence of beauty consciousness on self-brand connection. However, there are substantial differences between the two groups of consumers in the influence of the foreign brand halo effect on self-brand connection. Also, the halo effect exhibits the greatest influence on willingness to pay more. Consumers are also willing to pay more for brands from countries that have a positive image. https://doi.org/10.21632/irjbs.15.1.39-52
