Do They Practice What They Preach? : A quantitative study on how Generation Z’s purchase intention is affected by four CRM factors

Gerhardsson, Emma, Bergh, Ida, Thongpitaks, Supakarn January 2021 (has links)
Background: Cause-Related Marketing (CRM) is a popular marketing strategy where companies through this communication contribute to causes and engage their consumers by donating when they purchase a product and an amount of the revenue goes to charities. The concept has been divided into four different factors, being cause involvement, message, perceived cause fit and donation size. Cause-Related Marketing is of particular interest in regard to the sample as the next upcoming generation, Generation Z,  is forecasted to have great buying power and more awareness of societal issues. However, studies are lacking regarding this generation and especially in relation to Cause-Related Marketing as a strategy for influencing consumers purchase intentions. Hence, why this study tries to see how to reach this generation on their terms.  Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explain how Generation Z’s purchase intention is affected by four CRM factors.  Methodology:  This research has followed the structure of deductive research with a quantitative approach and with the research design of cross-sectional design. This further led to a self-complement online questionnaire being made, where the respondents consisted of Generation Z, with the ages of 18-26. The total number of respondents was concluded at 93. After collecting the data, the data has been cleaned and coded. Furthermore, by using Descriptive Statistics, Multiple Linear Regression, Cronbach's Alpha and Correlation Analysis the data was analysed and a result could be extracted. Findings: The result this research got from the empirical information, was that only one of the CRM factors had a significant and positive relation with Generation Z’s purchase intention, being Cause Involvement. The other factors had no significant relation with Generation Z’s purchase intention. Further, there was one item which was common in all factors and that one was emotion and to some extent knowledgeable.
