| Abstract: | The purpose of the paper is to study how the technical levels between parent brand and brand extension influence consumer's evaluation of the extension and the consumer's brand loyalty. A field study of 200 participants reveals that consumers tend to evaluate downward brand extensions more favorably because the perceived fit has a stronger positive effect on downward extensions than upward extensions. A high fit leads to positive effect of brand loyalty on the extension, whereas a low fit may cause a negative effect. |
