Understanding Commitment is Different – and More Powerful – than Measuring LoyaltyCommitment - is the strength of the bond or relationship to the brand.
Commitment can erode long before actual switching occurs (i.e. loyal behavior continues - a customer keeps buying or using a product for some period of time before switching) and therefore, it is crucial to understand commitment.
LOYALTYis about what people do
is about observing purchase and repurchase behavior
“loyalists” are not necessarily committed
COMMITMENTis about how people feel
is about the strength of the psychological relationship/bond
committed are as loyal as possible
We Know This---- now what do we do differently
in the digital World!

The horizontal dimension focuses on the different sources of influence over the brand-person relationship

As marketers are struggling to understand how to operate in the new marketing eco-system of Influence 3.0™, academics & practioners who look through the lens of consumer-brand relationship can help lead the way.
This means that some tried-and-true methods and practices used in research must evolve. We need to answer Marketers SO WHAT? And SO WHAT NEXT questions. For example,
• New & Improved Commitment/Relationship Metrics --- Survey AND Observational
• How do we quickly gain deeper understanding on/off-line brand-consumer relationships? We need to answer the marketers SO WHAT questions?
Let’s continue our discussion in the upcoming panel.
Some final words…
