PurposeCustomization allows brands to provide goods that match customers' preferences, but its impact on consumer-brand relationships is unclear. This study aims to examine the impact of two key moderators on the effectiveness of customization to enhance brand's perceived partner quality, which mediates the relationship between customization and brand attitude.Design/methodology/approachStudy 1 (n = 219) tests the moderated-mediation relationship, the effect of customization (IV) on perceived partner quality (mediator), and its indirect effect on brand attitude (DV), which is moderated by consumers' self-construal orientation (Moderator 1). Study 2 (n = 416) extends the model tested in Study 1 by including an additional moderator, shopping task context (Moderator 2).FindingsResults empirically demonstrate the impact of self-construal and shopping task context on the effectiveness of customization in improved customer-brand partner quality and eventual brand attitude.Practical implicationsCustomization may not appeal to every customer for the same reason. Marketers must target customers' individual traits (independents vs interdependents) and understand the context of the shopping task context (self-purchase vs gift-giving).Originality/valueThe work reveals how brands can enhance consumers' perceptions of the brand by allowing them to customize the product. It is novel in demonstrating that customization is not just a fine-grained segmentation strategy but a brand building tool. It highlights contextual factors affecting the outcome of customization by demonstrating the conditions under which it is most effective.
