•Asymmetric brand alliances (ASA) are alliances between strong and weak brands.•Prior research shows weak brands may benefit from an ASA.•However, ASA makes brand more salient over other ...attributes.•A focus on brand actually hurts the weak brand in an ASA.•Perceived extent of alliance integration between the brands moderates the effect.
Research on brand alliances has generally shown favorable outcomes for partnering brands among comparably strong brands. Recently, some retailers have offered promotions that pair a strong brand with a weak brand, with the goal of helping the weak brand. What is unique about these promotions is that the strength of the alliance integration is very low. The present research was designed to address the question of whether such asymmetric brand alliances—bundling a weak brand with a strong brand as part of a joint sales promotion—can benefit the weak brand through a transfer of positive associations from the strong brand. We show that not only do such partnerships fail to help the weak brand, they can actually hurt the weak brand by increasing the salience of the brand contrast in consumers’ decision-making process. We also show that alliance integration moderates the transference of the association’s effect.
Quick Response (QR) codes are widely employed in promotional campaigns worldwide. Adding a QR code to an advertisement increases visual design complexity, yet there remains little research on its ...impact on consumers. Drawing upon relevant marketing and psychology theories, we address how curiosity, visual design complexity, and perceived fit jointly affect consumers' QR codes scan intention. We hypothesize that highly curious consumers are likely to be more attracted to visually complex advertisements, thereby demonstrating greater scan intention. However, slightly curious consumers may feel overwhelmed by visual design complexity, but are likely to be more attracted to a good perceived fit between the QR code advertisement and the brand, which overcomes the negative effects of visual design complexity, leading to greater scan intention. The experimental findings support our main predictions. We conclude by discussing theoretical and managerial implications, recognizing important limitations, and suggesting future research directions.
