The differential impact of brand equity on B2B co‐branding

Stavros P. Kalafatis; Natalia Remizova; Debra Riley; Jaywant Singh

Purpose – Co‐branding strategies are now seen increasingly in business‐to‐business (B2B) settings, however, there has been little research in this area. This study aims to investigate the benefits of a B2B co‐branding strategy where the partner brands have different brand equity positions.Design/methodology/approach – This study employs a scenario approach incorporating three real multimedia software brands and three fictitious brands in nine hypothetical alliances over 97 respondents. Using repeated measures ANOVA, the study examines the balance of benefits derived from brand partnerships between high‐, medium‐ and low‐brand equity levels firms.Findings – It was found that brands with equivalent equity levels shared the benefits of the co‐branding equally, while lower equity brands benefited more from the alliance than higher equity partners. The results also suggest that very dominant partners gain a greater proportion of functional benefits (such as technical expertise) from the co‐branding strategy.Re...

Online and store patronage: a typology of grocery shoppers

Patricia Harris; Francesca Dall'Olmo Riley; Debra Riley; Chris Hand

Purpose Grounded on approach/avoidance behaviour theory, the purpose of this paper is to develop a typology of grocery shoppers based on the concomitant perceived advantages and disadvantages of shopping online and in store for a single cohort of consumers who buy groceries in both channels. Design/methodology/approach A survey design was employed using a sample of 871 UK shoppers who had purchased groceries online and offline. The survey instrument contained items that measured the perceived advantages and disadvantages of grocery shopping online, and items relating to the perceived advantages and disadvantages of grocery shopping in traditional supermarkets. Items were selected from the extant literature and subjected to content and face validity checks. Cluster analysis was used to develop typologies of online and offline grocery shoppers. The inter-relation between the two typology sets was then examined. Findings The results of the research provide several insights into the characteristics, perceptions and channel patronage preferences of grocery shoppers. In particular, profiling e-grocery shoppers on the basis of their concomitant perceptions of shopping online and in store suggests that the choice of whether to shop online or in store may be driven not by the perceived advantages of one channel vs the other, but by the desire to avoid the greater disadvantages of the alternative. These perceptions differ somewhat between different consumer groups. Originality/value This study makes a noteworthy contribution to the internet and general shopping literature by providing a profile of grocery shoppers based on their concomitant and often conflicting perceived advantages and disadvantages of shopping online and their perceived advantages and disadvantages of shopping in traditional supermarkets. The use of a single cohort of consumers overcomes the bias in previous studies that employ separate cohorts of online and offline shoppers and reveal important insights into the complex perceptions and behaviours of multichannel grocery shoppers.

The effects of source credibility and message variation on mail survey response behaviour

Stavros P. Kalafatis; Debra Riley; Markos H. Tsogas; Jimmy Clodine-Florent

Grounded on persuasive communications theory, the impact of source credibility and message variation on response behaviour towards a mail survey on a sample of the general public are examined. An experimental design comprising three levels (high, medium and low) of these variables is employed. Source credibility and the interaction of message variation (i.e. usefulness of the study) and source credibility have a significant impact on response rate. Overemphasising the usefulness of a study is found to be counterproductive. For sources that are arguably average or lower in credibility, a strongly worded message (in terms of usefulness) was less effective than more modest objectives.

The impact of entrepreneurial orientation and managerial resources on corporate venture outcomes

Debra Riley; Stavros P. Kalafatis; Farideh Manoochehri

This study explores the impact of a firms Entrepreneurial Orientation (EO) and its managerial resources on Internal Corporate Venture (ICV) outcomes. The findings, based on a sample of 155 UK company directors, indicate that the autonomous behaviour and risk-taking of EO are significant determinants of ICV outcome while proactiveness and innovativeness are not. The direct and indirect (mediated through EO) impact of two dimensions of managerial resources, i.e., functional skills and managerial capabilities, on ICV outcome is significant. The results suggest that managerial capabilities will have a more positive impact on corporate venture outcomes than the firms entrepreneurial culture.
