The effectiveness of internal branding depends on an understanding of the internal as well as the external environment of the organization. Organizations can build a strong employee brand image by focussing on Value based and Strategic Management, Autonomy, Employee Well-Being and Functional Benefits for the employees. Employee Commitment, Person-Organization Fit, Employee Engagement, Organizational Citizenship Behaviour, Brand Driven Culture, Employee based Brand Equity, and Talent Acquisition are seen as positive outcomes of employee's understanding of brand values through a strong internal branding process. The present descriptive and empirical study has identified the factors of internal branding which contribute to the overall employment experience and create and retain a strong employer brand. A sample size of 443 respondents across four different services sector in India was selected through stratified random sampling method. Self -designed and validated structured questionnaires were used to collect data. Empirical analysis of the study shows how organizations can create a strong employee brand image by focusing on various antecedents of brand creation. The major findings of the study include identification of seven factors which act as antecedents of internal branding and five significant factors which act as the consequences of internal branding practices. This study proposes an empirically tested integrated framework for internal branding based on its antecedents and consequences and helps organizations to identify the factors of internal branding which they need to emphasize upon to measure the effectiveness of their brand building process.
