“…Finally, this study shows that despite some 'anti-promotion' attitudes and resistance to some forms of consumption (Zavestoski, 2002b), voluntary simplicity is not seeking to eschew market interactions. Resistance to one type of consumption takes the form of another, and their practices are more about creating healthier, environmentally-friendlier and more balanced lifestyles for themselves, than seeking to escape the marketplace.…”

“…We suggest that it too should be approached primarily as a form of civic or political participation, raising questions about citizenship and mobilisation. Ethical consumption is in important respects distinctive from anticonsumerist movements (Littler 2005, Zavestoski 2002) such as the voluntary simplicity movement (Cherrier andMurray 2002, Shaw andNewholm 2002) …”

This study aims to examine the effect of brand avoidance motivators on brand equity. It also probes the mediating effect of brand hate among brand avoidance motivators and brand equity. In order to empirically study the above relationship the questionnaire was presently administered to the sample of 400 smartphone users. The 270 questionnaire were returned back. The received data was subjected to a number of statistical analyses.

The brand hate copiously mediates between brand avoidance motivators and brand equity. The findings have number of implications for marketers and mangers in Islamabad regarding brand avoidance.
