實務上有許多成功的品牌都擁有屬於他們自己的品牌故事且企業們也透過傳述自己的故事以企圖說服顧客。我們可以發現顧客能夠從故事中發掘出品牌的意義。因此本研究欲探討品牌故事的重要性且企圖找出品牌故事下的構面對顧客知覺到的品牌形象之關係做一系統化之研究。
本研究採用2*2*2實驗設計。其因子之操弄包含高/低真實性、第一人稱敘事者/非第一人稱敘事者、清楚/不清楚的情節。運用SPSS驗證假設並找出各變數間的效果。研究結果指出故事的真實性、敘事者、及其故事情節對於顧客知覺到的品牌形象具有顯著效果影響。且相較於低真實性、非第一人稱敘事者和不清楚的情節，具有高度真實性、由第一人稱敘事者陳述之故事、及具有清楚故事情節之品牌故事能使消費者產生較正向的品牌形象知覺。

It has been discovered that many successful brand has well-known brand story and companies tend to tell their story to persuade consumers. Also, it can be derived that what a brand make sense to customers is based in part on the brand story. This study is trying to discuss the importance of brand story and explore the relationship between brand story’s dimensions and consumers’ perceived brand image.
This study adopted 2×2×2 experiment design, among which are authenticity (high/low), narrator (first-person/non-first-person), and plot (clear/non-clear). We used SPSS to test our hypotheses and examined the effects of variables. In our findings, the results of analyses indicated that authenticity, narrator and plot truly impact consumers’ perceived brand image. Brand story with high authenticity, clear plot, and told by first-person narrator will induce more positive brand image than those perceived as lower authenticity, non clear plot and told by non-first-person narrator.
