The colorful company: Effects of brand logo colorfulness on consumer judgments

Abstract: This study examines the impact of brand logo colorfulness on consumer judgments toward a brand and its products. Four experiments demonstrate that the colorfulness of a brand logo affects consumers' perception of the product variety offered by the brand. When consumers feel that a brand logo is colorful, they tend to infer that the brand offers a high variety of product options to its customers. Driven by the perception of product variety, logo colorfulness has downstream consequences on consumer attitudes, an… Show more

“…Color-driven arousal is argued to influence consumer outcomes (Song et al , 2022), which we propose to be an increase in self-reward focus. High emotional arousal (triggered by warm vs cool color) would shift one’s attention to short-term motivations and diminishes cognitive capacity and dependence on cognitively demanding signals (Fedorikhin and Patrick, 2010).…”

“…Como otras formas de expresión visual (imágenes), estos signos corporativos facilitan el recuerdo, motivan la evocación y desencadenan asociaciones mentales (García-García et al, 2021). También se ha descubierto que, aunque el color puede influir en la identificación de la marca (Jin et al, 2019;Song et al, 2022), todos los elementos constitutivos del diseño del logo destacan más por su capacidad de proyectar la marca una vez la reconocen, que por emerger asociados explícitamente a su logo. Por tanto, las características específicas de los diseños logo-simbólicos repercuten en la respuesta del consumidor, en su gusto hacia esa representación visual (Zhu et al, 2017) y en su recuerdo (Bonales-Daimiel et al, 2021), pero los factores situacionales también influyen en las asociaciones simbólicas que generan sus elementos constitutivos (Fajardo et al, 2016), afectando a su interpretación.…”

“…El color es un elemento capaz de transmitir directa y eficazmente el mensaje y el significado de una empresa a su target (Jin et al, 2019); una alteración en el color puede cambiar "potencialmente" la "identidad" y la significación de cualquier imagen (Maya y Patiño, 2020, p. 32). Los consumidores tienden a interpretar que los logos coloridos se asocian a marcas que ofrecen una gran variedad de opciones respecto a sus productos y/o servicios (Song et al, 2022).…”

“…It is indisputable that visual marketing is a critical strategy for constructing consumption experiences (Andrews & Shimp, 2017) and a powerful approach to inducing consumer engagement (Wang et al, 2020). Visual marketing concerned with the use of visual stimuli (e.g., color and shape) largely affects consumer decisions (Sample et al, 2020), which has led researchers to theorize about visual stimuli that draw our attention and their effects on consumers' judgments and decision‐making (Kunz et al, 2020; Song et al, 2022; for a review, see Sample et al, 2020).…”

“…We show that a greater desire for memorability in marketing could deliver sense-based benefits to businesses. Our work also adds to the research on sensory marketing, specifically in the areas of visual and color studies (e.g., Hagtvedt & Brasel, 2017;Kunz et al, 2020;Song et al, 2022;Wang et al, 2020), by identifying a novel way to influence individuals' preferences for high-intensity visual stimuli (highly saturated colors). We believe the findings of this work will help practitioners better integrate visual stimuli into their operations to promote consumer consumption of varying degrees of visual stimulation.…”
