| Abstract: | This article introduces the concept of customer-based equity and connects it to a destination. This thoery complement earlier literature on destination evaluation from the tourist's perspective. The result of this study implies that an image plays a crucial role in evaluation, but is not the only brand dimension that should be used. Awarenes, loyalty and quality are dimensions that should also be considered for a more complete evaluation. Brand equity was tested on the Slovenian markets and results show that brand equity varies between the markets according to their evaluation of brand dimensions. |
