This cross-cultural study (individualist vs. collectivist culture) applies the levels of representation theory to explore the impact of cause familiarity on brand attitudes and the mediating effect of cause-brand fit. The research also examines the moderating role of perceived betrayal in the relationship between cause-brand fit and brand attitude. The data, collected from 455 French and Turkish participants via snowball sampling, reveal a significant influence of cause familiarity on brand attitude. Attitude towards fit in a cause-brand alliance acts as a mediator, while perceived betrayal moderates this relationship, highlighting the positive effects of alignment with a familiar cause on brand attitude and underscoring the crucial importance of fit in such alliances.

The Triple Bottom Line (TBL) concept emphasizes that business success should not be measured solely by financial performance. It includes social and environmental impacts alongside profit. Additionally, dynamic capabilities help firms adapt to rapid environmental changes and enhance sustainability performance. Previous studies have shown that TBL initiatives can also improve sustainability performance. However, no research has investigated how dynamic abilities and TBL initiatives jointly impact B2B firms’ sustainability performance in the post-COVID-19 period. This study aims to examine the implications of dynamic capabilities on TBL performance, particularly from a B2B marketing perspective. By developing and validating a conceptual research model, it contributes to the literature related to dynamic capability view, TBL, and sustainability.
