| description | Using the extended Resource Investment Model, this study investigated the effect of customerbrand
investments in building a strong customer engagement. Data were collected from a sample
of 200 mobile phone customers using self-administered questionnaire, and analyzed through the
utilization of multiple linear regressions analysis. The findings revealed that investments in
customer and brand relationship significantly induce the customer to be engaged to a brand.
Besides, the findings indicated that customer investment partially mediates the relationship
between perceived brand investment and customer engagement. This study is one of the first to
test the applicability of resource investment model in the context of customer-brand relationship.
It concentrated on customers’ perception of their relationships with mobile phone brand in the
Malaysia’s context. Accordingly, this study provides useful insight for companies in developing a
strong customer-brand relationship; and consequently to sustain their competitiveness. |
