Designing and Marketing Museum Offerings by Utilizing Consumer Knowledge : Research on Central Museums in Stockholm, Sweden

Witakowska, Weronika, Rönnblom, Ingrid January 2013 (has links)
The aim of this thesis is to examine how the central museums in Stockholm, Sweden, design and market their offerings by utilizing consumer knowledge. Current museum marketing research suggests that museums should be marketed as any organization; however, public museums are challenged by their mission to provide an offering that is framed by the state, and at the same time to attract visitors. Through semi-structured interviews with representatives from seven of the central museums in Stockholm, and a case study of a marketing campaign for an exhibition, information concerning the museums’ designing and marketing of offerings has been gathered. This information was analysed according to the theoretical framework which, building on co-creation of value theory, is an extended version of the DART-model to include word of mouth. The authors conclude that the museums are limited in their ability to adapt their offerings to consumer preferences due to their state given mission and a desire to be credible. Instead, online communication platforms are used to make the offerings available to more people and to market the offerings through the consumers’ online social networks.

The Pursuit of Museum Sustainability : Investigating sustainability for museum databases in Sweden

Karlsson, Martin January 2022 (has links)
Introduction: This case study with a qualitative phenomenological perspective investigates the relationships between museum databases in Sweden and the four pillars of museum sustainability, the Economic environment, the Social Environment, the Natural Environment, and the Cultural Environment. With the help of 33 indicators developed to measure museum sustainability, this study investigated which indicators museum databases could affectand how they are connected in order to identify what factors there are related to sustainability for museum databases. The Carlotta database was also discussed with the identified indicators in mind, with the purpose of examining the current sustainability progress for museum databases in today’s Sweden. Method: A survey was sent out containing 10 questions developed with the two first research questions in mind.The survey had 11 participants, which were completely anonymous, and literature was also used in the discussionof this study. Analysis: Using the definition for museum sustainability by Pop & Borza, and the 33 indicators developed tomeasure museum sustainability, the results of the survey could be analysed and used for identifying what indicatorswere relevant for museum databases, and what factors are related to sustainability for museum databases. Results: It was possible to identify economic factors, environmental factors, management factors, and conservational factors from the survey. These were then connected to the pillar that was relevant for them. The economicfactors were related to the Economic Environment, the environmental factors were related to the Natural Environment, the conservational factors were related to the Cultural Environment, and the management factors were related to all of the four pillars. Out of the 33 indicators, 24 could be identified as connected to museum databases. Conclusion: Museum databases have a great impact on museum sustainability, as well as museum management, but the same is true the other way around as well. Museums need to work together and help each other in order todevelop their databases in a sustainable way, and consequently, their museums as well. Every aspect of a museumdatabase needs to be examined with a sustainable perspective, which needs to be further studied in future research.The World Culture Museums are taking initiatives that are positive from a sustainability perspective, and the Carlotta database have great potential for reaching a point where it can be considered sustainable.
