Magister Commercii - MCom / The South African government has earmarked the Travel and Tourism industry as a key sector for economic growth as it plays an important role in stimulating the South African economy. Over the last few years the industry has placed greater emphasis on tour packages being offered to tourists, with one key group, Inbound Tour Operators, emerging to fulfil this important role. However, there have been limited studies conducted in the South African context which aim to isolate generalizable key success factors (KSFs) in the Travel and Tourism sector. By focusing on two important research streams, competitive advantage and international entrepreneurship, this study identified nine main KSFs. These KSFs were developed using Thomas and Long's KSF model (Thomas and Long, 2000). The general research approach was a qualitative, multiple-case study whereby six firms were selected from the inbound tour operator sub-sector of the SA tourism industry. The research methodology used in-depth interviews which were conducted with an industry expert and owner-managers of small, mediumand large inbound tour operators, serving and operating in international markets. This helped to gain an understanding of the complex and intricate ways that these firms comprehend KSFs and build their international strategy. As a result of this research approach, it was possible to identify how these KSF variables are influenced through management's decisions and how they essentially affect the overall competitive positions of the various firms in the industry. It also led to novel findings which challenged conventional international entrepreneurship thinking, such as the Uppsala approach, on the basis that firms do not only follow sequential steps when internationalising their businesses. It was found that entrepreneurial firms internationalise their businesses from the outset and extensively leverage off of internet-based technology and utilise export-based activities to engage international markets. The implications of the findings show that existing and new tour operators entering the tourism industry have clear KSFs which they can target in order to achieve success. These factors are variables which management can influence through their decision-making and affect the overall competitive positions of their firm in the industry. Nonetheless, further studies are required to identify KSFs in the other sectors within the tourism industry to provide valuable insights regarding how the international competitiveness of the local tourism industry as a whole may be improved.

Idag är sociala medier i fokus och att utnyttja det i forma av marknadsföring. Agerar specifika kundgrupper på andra sätt när de använder sig av sociala medier eller är vi alla lika på Internet? Syfte: Studien syftar på att kartlägga skillnader mellan en speciell utvald kundgrupp, i det här fallet hästtjejer, som visar upp unika egenskaper. Genom att undersöka deras internetvanor möjliggörs kompletteringar på existerande teorier för att optimera marknadsföringen. Metod: Kvantitativ undersökning med hjälp av en enkät som skickades ut till ett antal ridklubbar och skolor runt om i Blekinge för att göra den tillgänglig för medlemmarna på hemsidan och möta respondenterna på plats. Resultat: Det fanns en signifikant skillnad i åldern mellan grupperna där tjejer med ett hästintresse är i genomsnitt yngre. Tjejer utan hästintresse anslöt i högre utsträckning dagligen till Internet jämfört med tjejer med hästintresses där de flesta gick online 3-5 dagar per vecka. Intresset för att besöka sociala medier för att ta del av händelser och politik var lägre hos tjejer med ett hästintresse. Den övervägande delen av hästtjejerna angav att de delade surfplatta och dator med familjen i större utsträckning än tjejer utan hästintresse. Slutsats: Användandet av Internet skiljde sig inte däremot fanns det en skillnad i hur tjejerna anslöt till Internet och hur ofta de var uppkopplade samt vilka sociala medier de anslöt till.

Det konstanta mediabrus som existerar i dagens samhälle har lett till att mycket marknadsföring ignoreras. Webb 2.0 har bidragit till att nya strategier inom marknadsföring finns tillgängliga och företag måste anpassa sin marknadsföring för att fortsätta generera befintliga och presumtiva konsumenter. Personaliserad marknadsföring där konsumenter väljer att interagera med företaget och dess marknadsföring har gett goda resultat, dock krävs ett förarbete av programvaror som samlar information om konsumenten för att denna typ av marknadsföring ska vara genomförbar. Görs det, finns möjlighet att skapa högkvalitativ och riktad marknadsföring som intresserar och engagerar konsumenten. Hur väl svenska företag i textil- och modebranschen praktiserar denna interaktiva och personaliserade marknadsföring, även kallad inbound marketing, är ännu inte fastställt av den forskning som finns att tillgå.   Genom denna kvalitativa studie där semistrukturerade intervjuer genomförts med företag inom textil- och modebranschen ges läsaren en tydligare bild av hur företag tillämpar inbound marketing. Hur strategin kan skapa interaktion och engagemang dem och konsumenterna emellan och vilket angreppsätt av inbound marketing som företagen anser vara mest lönsam. Det framkommer att företag i dagsläget befinner sig i ett skifte, där tidigare strategier ifrågasätts och där inbound marketing blir allt mer aktuell. Studien fastställer att företag går mot en allt mer intensivt personaliserad marknadsföringsstrategi med konsumenten i fokus, där en praktisering av nya strategier på nya kanaler används för att engagera konsumenten i större utsträckning. Gemensamt är att sökmotoroptimering, Facebook och digitala nyhetsbrev är viktiga aktiviteter för att utvinna goda resultat av sin digitala marknadsföring. / The constant media noise have led us to ignore the majority of marketing we are exposed for. Web 2.0 have contributed with new marketing strategies available and companies must adapt to these revised strategies to continue creating leads and customers. Personalized marketing, where customers choose to interact with the company and its’ advertisement, have yielded great results. Software, able to gather, track and analyze customer data, need to be used by companies in order to achieve the best results possible. If done right, there´s an opportunity to create high quality marketing content that engages and interests the customers. To what extent Swedish companies in the textile- and fashion industry make use of this interactive, personalized marketing, also called inbound marketing, is yet to be determined by research.   Through this qualitative study, where semi-structured interviews have been conducted with companies within the textile- and fashion industry, the reader will be illuminated of how companies practice inbound marketing. How they are able to achieve interaction and engagement between them and the customers and what kind of inbound marketing they find most profitable. This study reveals that companies currently appear to be situated in the middle of a shift of strategies, where formerly used strategies are being questioned and where inbound marketing are gaining traction. This study establishes that companies shift towards a more intensive personalized marketing strategy with a lot more focus on the customer needs, where marketing through new channels are being used in order to engage customers to a greater extent. Search engine optimization, Facebook and digital newsletters are mutually important activities to yield good results based on digital marketing.

Frågeställning: Vilka egenskaper i digitalt innehåll engagerar konsumenter i varumärkesrelationer online? Syfte: Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur konsumenter upplever innehåll på digitala plattformar och analysera hur egenskaper i innehållet påverkar deras engagemang gentemot varumärkesrelationer. Egenskaperna som analyseras är personaliserat, underhållande och informativt innehåll. Studien syftar även att kunna tilldela företag väsentlig information om hur de ska agera kring innehållet på digitala plattformar när de interagerar med konsumenter. Metod: För att kunna besvara forskningsfrågan denna studie ämnade undersöka användes en deduktiv forskningsansats med en kvantitativ datainsamlingsmetod. Detta utfördes genom en digital enkätundersökning där kvantitativ primärdata samlades in från totalt 314 respondenter. Slutsats: Studiens resultat visade att det personaliserade innehållet har den största och mest signifikanta effekten för konsumentens engagemang i varumärkesrelationer. Denna oberoende variabel var den enda av totalt tre variabler som hade en signifikant effekt på både det kalkulativa och affektiva engagemanget. Vidare visade sig det underhållande innehållet endast ha en effekt på det affektiva engagemanget medan det informativa innehållet endast hade en signifikant effekt på det kalkulativa engagemanget. Detta leder till en slutsats om att alla studiens oberoende variabler blir viktiga i sig för att uppnå ett varierat innehåll som engagerar på både det affektiva och det kalkulativa planet. En kombination av dessa innehållsegenskaper bör presenteras för att optimera innehållets effekt. / Research question: Which characteristics of digital content make consumers committed in brand relationships online? Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate how consumers experience content on digital platforms and to analyze how characteristics of said content affect their commitment in relationships to a brand. The study includes an analysis of personalized, entertaining, and informative content. The result aims to provide companies with practical implications on how to work with content on digital platforms when interacting with consumers. Method: In order to answer the research question this study intended to investigate, a deductive research approach was used, with a quantitative data collection method. This was done through a digital survey where quantitative primary data were collected from a total of 314 respondents. Conclusion: The results of the study showed that the personalized content has the largest and most significant effect on consumer commitment in brand relationships. This independent variable was the only one of a total of three variables that had a significant effect on both the calculative and affective commitment. Furthermore, the entertaining content only proved to have an effect on the affective commitment while the informative content only had a significant effect on the calculative commitment. This leads to the conclusion that all the study's independent variables become important in themselves in order to achieve a varied content that commits on both the affective and the calculative level. A combination of these content features should be presented to optimize the effect of the content.

有關科技創新在擴散上的研究已行之有年，且有不少有關的研究發現及案例。但是創新的層面不只侷限於科技，在近年來服務創新、行銷創新等概念的興起，產生了創新領域內新的研究目標。而這些類型的創新擴散研究更是相當稀少，故本研究希望從此一方向進行探索性研究，期望同時有助於實務與學術的發展。 社會與科技的快速發展，促使網際網路的使用普及化，也影響到公司與消費者間的溝通及行銷模式。行銷創新：Inbound Marketing也是在這樣的情境下誕生。而近來台灣大量公司也採行Inbound Marketing作為重要的行銷手段時。讓公司不斷採納Inbound Marketing的理由及想法應該有可解釋的背後因素，所以本研究期望藉由研究的結果回答三點研究問題：(1) 影響行銷創新採用的重要關鍵因素為何？(2) 行銷創新擴散主要因素為何？(3) 不同產業在採用行銷創新上的異同為何？ 本研究藉由文獻與學理的回顧，進一步探討Inbound Marketing行銷創新。以創新擴散、科技接受模式及兩階段理論作為基礎，發展出個案研究的基礎架構。研究架構將創新採用的過程，以創新決策流程作為基礎，區分為動機、啟發、執行及常規化等四個階段，並結合科技接受模式及兩階段理論中所討論的要素，進一步發展出構面。動機構面中含括創新、環境及組織等要素，啟發構面則包含設定標的及尋求創新等項目，執行構面則有重新定義及釐清兩個步驟，最後的構面則是常規化階段。本研究採用多重個案研究法，依前述的架構構面與變項進入深入的探討。 本研究所得到的初步結論包括：(1) 資源、環境及競爭要素是影響行銷創新採用的重要關鍵因素。(2) Inbound Marketing的高創新可近性是行銷創新擴散的主要因素。(3) 消費性電子及連鎖餐飲業在Inbound Marketing行銷創新採用的比較中，產業差異並不顯著。本論文最後進一步提出實務上及後續研究上的建議。 / Studies in innovation distribution and diffusion field have been researched for decades, but most innovation target will focus on technology innovation.
