Abstract

It is very important for companies to form a strong brand resonance to maximize profits, attract new customers, and prevent them from leaving existing customers. In this study, we examined the relationship between brand awareness factors and brand attachment leading to brand identity cognition, brand performance, and brand emotion, and verified how brand attachment plays a role in shaping brand resonance. As a result, it was confirmed that brand emotion among brand awareness factors is a key factor affecting brand attachment and forming brand resonance. In addition, if the perception of brand identity is established until the true brand resonance of consumers is established, they will experience the true value of the brand through differential performance on the brand, and further increase the emotional response of consumers. This led to deep solidarity with the brand and consumers through attachment to the brand, interacting with the brand and showing high brand empathy behavior.

기업은 수익 극대화 및 새로운 고객유치와 기존고객 이탈방지를 위해 강력한 브랜드 공감을 형성하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 브랜드 정체성에 대한 인지, 브랜드 성과, 브랜드 감정으로 이어지는 브랜드 인식요인들과 브랜드 애착과의 관계를 살펴보고, 브랜드 애착이 브랜드 공감을 형성하는데 어떠한 역할을 하는지 검증하였다. 결과적으로, 브랜드 인식요인 중 브랜드 감정이 브랜드 애착에 영향을 미치고 브랜드 공감을 형성하는 핵심요인임을 확인하였다. 또한 소비자들의 진정한 브랜드 공감이 형성되기까지 브랜드 정체성에 대한 인지가 정립되면, 브랜드에 대한 차별적 성과를 통하여 브랜드에 대한 진정한 가치를 경험하게 되고 소비자들의 감성적 반응을 높인다. 이는 브랜드에 대한 애착을 통해 브랜드와 소비자와의 깊은 결속으로 이어지며, 브랜드와 상호작용하고 높은 브랜드 공감적 행동을 보여 주는 것으로 나타났다.
