Empirical Study on Brand Ranking Based on the Multiple Attribute Decision Making Theory:Taking Chinese Woman Clothing Industry Top 20 Brand Rankings as an Example
The sequence of brand values is of high reference value for the public recognition,social awareness and supporting policy of the government.However,there has always been a lot of debate about the current sequencing methods,and until now,no reliable and convincing sequencing method exists,which results the lack of credibility in sequences prepared by each institute.Therefore,the standardization method of multi-attribute decision making theory was adopted and the concept of brand information quantity is introduced in this thesis to transfer the key brand indicators into uniform information dimension and finish the transformation of key brand indicators to information quantity,which avoids the problem that the weight of multi-attri-bute evaluation is hard to determined scientifically and creates a set of brand evaluation and sequencing methods based on brand information quantity at last to help to simplify the computational model.Besides,according to the data from the survey on the quality development of China's chain brands in 2014,the 20 brands in women's clothing industry of China are also calculated and evaluated in this thesis and the method is used in the sequencing to have the convincing empirical result finally.The application of the method provides a brand-new thought for the objective evaluation of brands and strengthens the weak area of brand management.It is an innovative research on the brand evaluation and sequencing theory and can be used as guidance during the benchmarking management of enterprise managers with reference to the brand sequence.
