Summary: | 隨著經濟體制的改革開放,廠商品牌經營的範疇也隨之擴大至國際市場。同時隨著競爭優勢的典範轉移,進入模式所考量的內部因素-品牌權益的運用,也變得日形重要。因此「如何利用品牌權益有效率的切入市場」的議題也隨之受到重視。目前學術界在進入模式及品牌策略層面都已累積了為數不少的深入研究。然針對此議題的研究卻十分的缺少,因此本研究將針對此理論缺口,利用質化研究的方式,以台灣食品廠商做為訪談對像,進行深入探討。
首先為能明確化品牌權益與切入市場效率之間的關係,本研究在文獻探討的部份,深入分析品牌權益與交換問題的關係。同時再以邱志聖(2006)行銷四c為分析架構,系統性的說明品牌權益如何對交換成本產生影響。而個案分析方式便也採用同樣的架構,去深入探討五家具代表性的食品廠商,其品牌進入策略解決交換問題的能力。
再利用個案分析的結果,歸納出現有廠商進入新市場所採取的品牌進入策略類型為「自創品牌進入策略」、「共創品牌進入策略」及「信任建立式品牌進入策略」。並詳細說明各品牌進入策略的特性及成因,並據此提出相關命題。最後本研究再以行銷交換成本為構面,針對不同的品牌進入策略提出建議的解決模式。
