Book excerpt: Excerpt from Competitive Advertising and Pricing in Duopolies: The Implications of Relevant Set-Response Analysis Consumers choose from among those brands they consider relevant. Advertising spending influences whether consumers consider brands as relevant. Firms set advertising and price and react, re-react, etc., until an equilibrium is reached. We demonstrate how advertising affects the price equilibrium, how price affects the advertising equilibrium, and how external factors affect both. We show how the ability to anticipate competitive response affects advertising strategies and profits and we compare the competitive formulation to a noncompetitive formulation. The analysis is compatible with an evaluation cost theory of consumer behavior. We examine empirical support for the theories.
