Talking of Brand Equity & Brand Value PDF Print E-mail

Brand value and brand equity represent two different, yet intricately linked, concepts. Brand value is the net present value of future cash flows from a branded product minus the net present value of future cash flows from a similar unbranded product—or, in simpler terms, what the brand is worth to management and shareholders.

 

Brand equity is a set of perceptions, knowledge and behavior on the part of customers that creates demand and/or a price premium for a branded product—in other words, what the brand is worth to a customer.

There is no question eCommerce is hot in China. Taobao, China’s largest online retail platform reported that it was selling an average of 48,000 items every minute.... wow.

 

So for those of us that need to pull together marketing decks that outline little known ecommerce facts then  I wanted to provide some information on the top 10 cities in China ranked by online sales orders. This information was collected by iResearch using their ECPlus tracking tool and some data points published by Taobao.

 

I hope that this post helps you with some additional data points regarding the Chinese eCommerce sector. The information below ranks the top 10 provinces and also the fastest 10 growing province by online order amount.

Most marketers are familiar with the concept of the “purchase funnel,” and many online marketers plan and execute their campaigns with it in mind. However, I would argue that most would go with their first instinct to buy media on some sites for their ability to generate awareness and reach new customers. A smaller group of marketers may also consider buying media for ads to drive an action. But many fail to realize the true value of the performance marketing channels; search, affiliate, email and even social media (to a lesser extent)?

Research data from SinoTech Group, comScore, GroupM and M80 indicates online searchers are also more likely to keep a brand in mind if they have seen a combination of paid search ads and social media.
