Abstract

This study focused on brand loyalty for an international, franchised Fitness Health Club in Vienna, Austria. The researcher found six independent variables in order to analyse customers’ brand loyalty towards the above mentioned Fitness Health Club. The data was collected through 366 useful questionnaires from the Fitness Health Club and its day-to-day customers and members in Vienna, Austria. The research tested the relationship between brand loyalty and seven variables, which were advertising spending, brand image, brand trust, customer orientation, corporate social responsibility (CSR), satisfaction and overall valuation of services. The researcher finds that all null hypotheses were rejected through the Pearson Correlation technique, which showed that there were statistically positive relationships among the variables.
