Abstract: Abstract A number of studies have investigated the impact of celebrity endorsers on consumers’ attitudes towards brands and on their purchase intentions. Despite the existence of extensive marketing literature and a growing use of celebrity endorsement in Croatia, little is known about how Croatian consumers react to celebrities in advertisements. Moreover, there is scarce knowledge about consumer opinion of or attitudes towards a celebrity endorsement strategy. This study represents preliminary, exploratory efforts to examine whether Croatian consumers recognize brands endorsed by national celebrities and to understand their opinions of and attitudes towards celebrity endorsement as a common and effective marketing practice employed for the purposes of brand management.
