In this two-part blog series, we take a closer look at brand abuse and intellectual property (IP) infringements. In this first article, we explore the components making up a company\u2019s IP and how online content can affect a brand\u2019s value, both actual and perceived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IP and brand value<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The IP held by an organization \u2013 i.e. the portfolio of brands, trademarks, and other intangible assets that provide it with its distinctiveness, and protect it from unfair competition in the marketplace \u2013 contributes a significant proportion to the total value of the business. A number of factors make up the total value attributable to IP, including initial creation costs, and its potential to generate future revenue[1]<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An organization\u2019s brand will itself have a financial market value; a related concept is brand equity, which affects the value of the products and services associated with that brand. Brand equity is affected by factors like brand visibility (how well known the brand is to consumers, and its perception in the market), and customer loyalty (having a guaranteed income from an established customer base)[2]<\/sup>. These factors drive certain behaviours in the market; for example, the willingness of consumers to trust a new, unfamiliar product from an established brand[3].<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The value of a brand as a proportion of the total value (market capitalization) of the associated company can vary greatly, and is dependent on a number of factors, including company size and industry sector. For smaller organizations, which have fewer tangible assets, the brand value tends to be a larger proportion of the total value of the company. Companies where the brand name provides a significant part of their appeal (e.g. luxury goods companies, where \u201cthe company is<\/em> the brand\u201d) may have proportionately higher brand values \u2013 a 2007 study[4]<\/sup> found that the brand value for jewellery retailer Tiffany was 75% of the company\u2019s total market capitalization, for example. Considering a range of large brands across a spectrum of different industries, the value of a brand might typically represent something like one fifth of the total value of an organization on average[5]<\/sup>. Interbrand\u2019s 2020 \u2018Best Global Brands\u2019 study aims to quantify the values of the 100 most valuable brands, in a list topped by Apple ($323 billion), Amazon ($201 billion), and Microsoft ($166 billion)[6]<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brand damage and brand protection<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Brand protection services, such as those offered by CSC, can help organizations identify online brand abuse and infringements against their IP, and take remedial action. The types of findings identified vary widely. They include reputational issues (negative comment and activism, brand association with undesirable content, etc.), unauthorized use of IP by bad actors (associated with the sale of counterfeit items or the creation of lookalike sites associated with fraudulent activity), and other brand issues like brand dilution and uses of branded material by third parties. Some of these may result in generalized damage to the perception of a brand, which may affect its value but be hard to quantify, whilst others have directly measurable financial impacts. Similarly, the enforcement <\/p>\n\n\n\n

options available for the removal of damaging content varies significantly, dependent on the type of content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Online content that provides reputational damage to a brand, for example, may be protected by the freedom-of-speech argument, where there are few or no routes for takedown. However, there is still value in brand owners monitoring for negative comment, as it provides awareness of the issues being discussed, and can provide an opportunity for the company to take remedial action. This action can include making changes to work practices, or broadcasting positive marketing messages to counteract the negative chatter. Left unchecked, reputational damage can have a significant detrimental effect on brand value. A recent report stated that the value of Facebook\u2019s brand had dropped by $147 billion (7.4%) in a year, in the wake of advertiser boycotts in response to the company\u2019s policies on hate speech[7]<\/sup>. Other prominent organizations have also been subject to damaging stories and campaigns over the years. Nestle has been subject to an extended series of boycotts since the 1970s in response to their policies on baby-milk marketing, groundwater extraction, and promotion of unhealthy products. More recently, Oxfam was associated with accusations of sexual misconduct, bullying, and harassment by staff, resulting in significant dips in their levels of donations and volunteering. Google has also been accused of poor staff practices and user data breaches[8]<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A range of types of IP infringement can also have significant effects on the value of a brand. When Christopher Bailey joined the Burberry organisation in 2001, he found a brand that had been significantly damaged, in part due to a proliferation of counterfeits; fashion designer and retailer Alex Eagle notes that \u201cBurberry check \u2026 became ubiquitous with fake goods, meaning it had lost its exclusivity\u201d. Working his way up to Chief Creative Officer in 2014, Bailey aimed to tackle these issues through a combination of promotional events, launches of new product ranges across differing price brackets targeted at a variety of customer demographics, and \u2013 crucially \u2013 keeping \u201cahead of the copycat\u201d, by making products available in-store immediately after being exhibited at fashion shows. In so doing, he was able to help bring about an increase in share value of over 700% in 15 years[9]<\/sup>. A programme of online monitoring for and, where possible, enforcement against IP infringements can help an organization protect its brand value. In part, simply being seen proactively defending the brand can be beneficial, increasing customer confidence, and making the company a less attractive target to infringers. Aside from these less quantifiable contributions to brand value, having an active brand-protection programme in place, and removing individual infringements, also directly impacts revenue and profit. Standard techniques exist for estimating the value of these actions, providing a measure of return on investment. We will cover this in the second article in this series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
