Theoretical framework
Liability of newness (Stinchcombe, 1965) is a concept to help explain why new market entrants have higher rates of failure than established actors.
Legitimacy helps mitigate liability of newness (Hannan and Freeman, 1984; Shepherd et al., 2000).
One way to establish legitimacy is to gain signals and/or affiliations with high status 3rd parties (Stinchcombe. 1965; Stuart et al., 1999, Aldrich and Fiol, 1994).
Theoretical framework
Signals that are exclusive and carry a penalty or bond are strong proxies for quality (Akerlof, 1970, Ippolito, 1990)
Different types signals and sources of signals , 1990) Different types signals and sources of s
Theoretical framework
The source of the signal and the type of stake is important because the higher the perceived credibility of the source the greater the positive impact on consumers’ behaviors (Levin et al., 1997; West and Broniarczyk, 1998).
• Status can be seen as the prime cause of source credibility exactly because high status actors reflect and influence the ideas of the group in which they operate (Homans, 1950, Washington and Zajac, 2005).
