In contrast, Egner and Hierneis differentiate between direct and indirect brand signals. The direct brand signals include the product packaging and the brand logo. Indirect brand signals, in turn, are the product presentation environment, in particular interior design, display, typical brand colors, other stylized brand elements or excerpts from advertisements.
