Main aim of brand management is to improve goodwill of company in themind of customers or create a favourable image so as to improve sales and revenue of company(Abrahams, 2016). For this report, McDonald's and Optimum impressions Ltd is taken forconsiderations. It is one of the largest fast food company in the world and has more than 37thousands stores all over world. Different types of components which helps company to buildsuccessful strategy will be discussed with the help of brand equity model.

One more termwhich is connected to brand is brand equity; which refers to extra money which could be chargedby company due to positive goodwill of organisation and their products in the market. Like ifany customer listens or see I am loving it then they will recognize the brand McDonald's as itstheir tag line which is widely famous. There are three components on which brand equity isbased on which are; consumer's perception from the brand, its effect on the customer whichcould be positive and negative and at last value which is perceived by them (Barrow and Mosley,2011).

Brand and its goodwill plays an important part in the success of any organisation in anyindustry. For instance, company like McDonald's charged premium pricing for their products due

to their high brand image in the market. Due to this most of the competitors set their prices lowerso to attract more customers. Most of the organisation generally use Keller brand equity modelso as to create a favourable image of organisation in the mind of customers. First phase of equity model i.e., states that company should increase their brandawareness so to sell their product in the market as if people does not recognize their productsthen they would not buy it by considering it a inferior brand over other. For instance,McDonald's invest heavily in promotion activities so that people of UK would be aware abouttheir brand. After this, company enters into a new stage which is divided into two phase, inwhich first is performance of the product (Buil, De Chernatony and Martinez, 2013). Companyshould make their products reliable and durable so that maximum value of money whichcustomers have paid for the products would be achieve.
