Design/methodology/approach Based on the positivist paradigm, the authors followed a survey-based approach to collect data from 125 retailers of Nu Green Tea brand from Indonesia.

Findings The results reveal that elements of marketing efforts such as supplier image, distribution strategy, and push and pull promotions have a significant impact on the RPBE of Nu Green.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to verify the differences of the influence of customer experience quality on brand equity, brand trustworthiness, perceived quality, perceived risk and purchase intention of franchise customers and non-franchise customers. Design/methodology/approach After developing two questionnaires, the authors collected 523 responses from Brazilian franchise users (Questionnaire 1) and 574 of non-franchise users (Questionnaire 2). The authors proceed to a confirmatory factor analysis, based on covariance (CB-SEM). In order to compare the results between franchises and non-franchises, the authors have performed a multi-group analysis with support of AMOS. Findings The results show that customer experience quality of the franchise customers tends to result in a better purchase intention, giving indications of better quality and brand trustworthiness when compared to non-franchises. This comparison shows indications of the competitive advantage of franchises over non-franchises, justifying the investments that market companies have been making in the development of the customer experience quality. Originality/value The research contributes to the understanding of the impact of the customer experience quality on brand equity, brand trustworthiness, perceived quality, perceived risk and purchase intention that directly affects the performance of the franchises, empirically investigating the customer experience quality in the context of franchises using the adapted EXQ scale. Complementarily, it is compared with non-franchises to observe the differences between them.

The hotel industry has grown rapidly in recent years, becoming the most competitive environment. As a result, industry players strive to outsmart competitors by creating brand equity to enhance brand loyalty; however, the impact of brand equity and demographic characteristics on brand loyalty is sketchy. In this study, we assess this impact in United Arab Emirates’ hotel industry by using customer experience as the mediating role. We selected a total of 694 participants at three 3-star hotels and two 5-star hotels in the United Arab Emirates. The Mann–Whitney test showed no statistically significant differences in brand loyalty ( p < .05) by gender, and the Kruskal–Wallis test showed a moderately statistically significant difference ( p > .05) and a highly statistically significant difference ( p > .07) in brand loyalty by age and income groups, respectively. A positive correlation was found between customer experience and the different dimensions of brand equity. Similarly, a positive relationship ( R = .716) was found between customer experience and brand loyalty using linear regression analysis. These findings will benefit managing authorities and key decision makers who seek to increase the productivity and profitability of their hotels.

Digitalization is a megatrend, but there is relatively little knowledge about its consequences for service work in general and specifically in knowledge-intensive business services (KIBS). We studied the impact of digitalization on psychological consequences for employees in tax consultancies as a special case of KIBS. We compare two tax consulting jobs with very different job demands, those of tax consultants (TCs) and assistant tax consultants (ATCs). The results show that the extent of digitalization at the workplace level for ATCs correlates significantly positively with their job satisfaction. For TCs, the same variable correlates positively with their work engagement. These positive effects of digitalization are mediated in the case of ATCs by the impact on important job characteristics. In the case of TCs, which already have very good working conditions, the impact is mediated by the positive effect on self-efficacy. Theoretical and practical consequences of these results are discussed.
