The brand image is of Maurice Greene one of the fastest runners in the world as a symbol of the company. He is used as a symbol of the company because of the athletic ability he maintains and that buying this product Nike want you the consumer to think that this product will help you to achieve a similar ability.

I think Audi are trying to appeal to brand loyal consumers, as does Mojo. This is evident from the fact that studies, have shown that brand loyal consumers are more likely to be influenced by reference groups. By reference groups we mean their peers.
