跨境電商環境下物流企業的業務發展策略-以中国邮政為例 / After Chinese domestic ecommerce boom in the mid-2000s, cross-border ecommerce has become the hot topic and big trend in recent years. As one of the important part of ecommerce, logistics service providers also face some difficulties in changing from the domestic to cross-border e-commerce. The study starts from the business development trend and in view of postal express player to seek the effective strategies. For example, they should set up different strategies for different target customers and provide tailor-made products, establish the overseas warehouse for global network expansion, work with the government and participate in the pilot cities of cross-border ecommerce, design convenient and efficient customs clearance system, further improve the terminal network and customer service system, and finally create a better industrial atmosphere with the cross-border ecommerce practitioners and rejuvenate the postal express and logistics enterprises in business development.

På senare tid har en ny trend inom multikanalförsäljning uppmärksammats, där renodlade e-handlare inser vikten av att finnas tillgängliga för kunden i flera försäljningskanaler och därför adderar en fysisk butik som försäljningskanal. Den nya trenden benämns i studien för Clicks to Bricks. När flera försäljningskanaler opererar under samma varumärke kan svårigheter uppstå i att förmedla en enhetlig bild av varumärket, vilket lyfts fram i befintlig litteratur kring multikanalförsäljning. Det finns dock inga tidigare studier som undersöker utmaningar i att förmedla en enhetlig bild av varumärket specifikt för företag som går från Clicks to Bricks. Baserat på att Clicks to Bricks är ett relativt nytt fenomen som växt fram är forskningen inom området bristfällig och ytterligare studier krävs därför för att ge en ökad förståelse för fenomenet. / Background: Recently, a new trend in multichannel retailing has been growing where pure eretailersare realizing the importance of being available to the customer in several sales channelsand therefore adds a physical store to its existing e-commerce. The new trend is further referredto as Clicks to Bricks. When multiple sales channels operate under the same brand difficultiesmay arise in conveying a consistent image of the brand, which is highlighted in the existingliterature on multi-channel retailing. However, there are no previous studies that examinechallenges in conveying a consistent image of the brand specifically for companies going fromClicks to Bricks. Based on the fact that Clicks to Bricks is a relatively new phenomenon thearea is fairly unexplored in the academic world, which means that further studies are needed toprovide a greater understanding of the phenomenon. Purpose: The study aims to provide a greater understanding of the phenomenon Clicks toBricks, by examining the reasons for pure e-tailers to add a physical store as a sales channel andhow they work to convey a consistent brand image. Completion: The study has the design of a multiple case study and has been conducted with aqualitative approach. The study's empirical data is collected from interviews with people onnine different companies that have gone from Clicks to Bricks. Conclusion: This study observes the fact that companies going from Clicks to Bricks haverecognized the importance of communicating a consistent brand across their sales channels.Companies have, however, started its work towards communicating a consistent image of thebrand at a late stage in the establishment process. The study identifies opportunities forimprovement in terms of conveying a consistent brand when it comes to companies going fromClicks to Bricks.

The growth of eCommerce is being hampered by a lack of trust between providers and consumers of Web-based services. While Web trust issues have been addressed by researchers in many disciplines, a comprehensive approach has yet to be established. This thesis proposes a conceptual trust-profiling framework???W3TF???which addresses issues of trust and user confidence through a range of new user-centred trust measures???trust categories, trust domains, transitivity of trust, fading factor analysis, standalone assessment, hyperlinked assessment and relevance assessment. While others now use the concept of transitivity of trust, it was first introduced by this research in 1998. The thesis also illustrates how W3TF can narrow the gap/disconnection between the hierarchical PKI trust environment and the horizontal Web referral environment. The framework incorporates existing measures of trust (such as Public Key Infrastructure), takes account of consumer perceptions by identifying trust attributes, and utilises Web technology (in the form of metadata), to create a practical, flexible and comprehensive approach to trust assessment. The versatility of the W3TF is demonstrated by applying it to a variety of cases from trust literature and to the hypothetical case study that provided the initial stimulus for this research. It is shown that the framework can be expanded to accommodate new trust attributes, categories and domains, and that trust can be ???weighed??? (and therefore evaluated) by using various mathematical formulae based on different theories and policies. The W3TF addresses identified needs, narrows the gaps in existing approaches and provides a mechanism to embrace current and future efforts in trust management. The framework is a generic form of trust assessment that can help build user confidence in an eCommerce environment. For service providers, it offers an incentive to create websites with a high number of desired trust attributes. For consumers, it enables more reliable judgments to be made. Hence, Web trust can be enhanced.

It is focused not on selling, but on communicating with customers and prospects. In today world´s, a trend has been seen in brands becoming publishers in order to keep up with their competition and more importantly to keep their base of fans and followers. Content Marketing is making companies to engage consumers by publishing engaging and value-filled content. This study aims to investigate if there is a link between brand engagement and Facebook Content Marketing practices in the e-commerce industry in Brazil. Based on the literature review, this study defines brand engagement on Facebook as the numbers of 'likes' 'comments' and 'shares' that a company receives from its fans. These actions reflect the popularity of the brand post and leads to engagement. The author defines a scale where levels of Content Marketing practices are developed in order to analyze brand posts on Facebook of an ecommerce company in Brazil. The findings reveal that the most important criterion for the company is the one regarding the picture of the post, where it examines whether the photo content is appealing to the audience. Moreover, it was perceived that the higher the level of these criterion in a post, the greater the number of likes, comments and shares the post receives. The time when a post is published does not present a significant role in determining customer engagement and the most important factor within a publication is to reach the maximum level in the Content Marketing Scale. / Marketing de Conteúdo refere-se a qualquer ação de marketing que envolva a criação e o compartilhamento de meios de comunicação e publicação de conteúdo, afim de adquirir clientes. Essa ação não consiste em vender, mas em se comunicar com os clientes. No mundo de hoje, há surgido a tendência de marcas se tornarem editores afim de acompanharem a concorrência e, mais importante, para manter a sua base de fãs e seguidores. O Marketing de Conteúdo está fazendo com que as empresas se envolvam com os consumidores através da publicação de um conteúdo atraente e com valor. Este estudo tem como principal objetivo investigar se existe uma ligação entre engajamento da marca e as práticas de marketing de conteúdo do Facebook no setor de ecommerce no Brasil. Com base na revisão literária, o estudo define engajamento da marca no Facebook a partir da quantidade de número de "curtidas", "comentários" e "compartilhamentos" que uma empresa recebe de seus fãs. Estas ações refletem a popularidade da marca e leva ao engajamento. O autor define uma escala onde os níveis da prática de marketing de conteúdo são desenvolvidos a fim de analisar as mensagens da marca no Facebook de uma empresa de comércio eletrônico no Brasil. Os resultados revelam que o critério mais importante para a empresa é o que diz respeito à imagem do post, onde é examinado se o conteúdo da foto é atraente para o público. Além disso, percebeu-se que quanto maior o nível desse critério em um post, maior será o número de "curtidas", "comentários" e "compartilhamentos" que o post recebe. A hora em que um post é publicado não é significativa na determinação do envolvimento do cliente e o fator mais importante dentro de uma publicação é o alcance do nível máximo na escala de Marketing de Conteúdo.

Abstract Bachelor Thesis in Business Administration. Bachelor of Science with Specialization in Marketing – Main Field of Study: Business Administration. School of Business and Economics at Linnaeus University, Course Code 2FE21E, 2018 Title: From Bags to Boxes: A Study of the Consumers Perception of Value in Online Fashion Retail Sales Authors: Nadine Bolm, Betty Hartigan Supervisor: Michaela Sandell Examiner: Åsa Devine Background: Online retail sales has been growing steadily since the late twentieth century. Fashion, as a segment of the online marketplace, is the largest market in cyberspace and as new companies are combined with old ones who want to establish a presence online, competition is stifling. As more companies offer fashion in the online world consumers behavior evolves with this new reality and customer-perceived value shifts as the consumers values in their transactions shifts. In order to gain and maintain a strong consumer base companies need to know what the variables are that make up customer-perceived value in hopes of affecting it. Purpose: The purpose of this research is to explain the relationship between values of utilitarian nature, those being; monetary savings, convenience, product variety, product information, and customer-perceived value in online fashion retail and to explain the relationship between values of hedonic nature, those being; adventure, gratification, best deal, idea, and customer-perceived value in online fashion retail. Methodology: The research conducted here was an explanatory study to determine how different independent variables related to a single dependent variable. The study was deductive in nature and used a quantitative approach. Independent variables were studied with the use of a convenience sample and self-reporting survey posted online. Statistical analysis was conducted with data collected from 142 valid responses and through the use of validity and reliability methods the data was determined statistically meaningful and valid to test the hypothesis as accepted or rejected.   Findings: The findings of this study show that a new theoretical model was needed to better demonstrate the direct connection between variables that consumers identified as valuable to them in online fashion shopping, had with consumer-perceived value. By examining data collected through online survey it was determined that of the 8 variables, seen as valuable by research into consumer perceived value, 4 would be accepted as such. These 4 variables would become the basis for a new model that explained how consumers develop customer-perceived value. Conclusion: The research explains the relationship the 8 variables selected by previous research for their effect on customer-perceived value. It also provides a model for future research activities or for development of marketing plans with exceptional efficiency and effectiveness in mind. In directly relating each variable to customer-perceived value on its own merit it was found that the variables respondents valued most were of the more practical or utilitarian in nature aside from one, adventure, which possessed the highest level of value of the 8 variables.     Keywords: Customer-perceived value; Utilitarian value; Hedonic value; Online retail; Online fashion retail; Ecommerce; Monetary savings; Convenience; Product variety; Product information; Adventure; Gratification; Best deal; Idea

The internet and the rise of e-commerce have changed the foundation for how Swedish fashion companies operates. The shift has simplified for businesses to reach foreign customers who are vital for the fashion companies as the Swedish market is too small to nurture all existing companies. To expand abroad often requires plenty of resources to overcome structural entry barriers. One marketing tool that Swedish fashion companies have used to avoid high expenditures is Affiliate marketing, a cost-effective digital marketing instrument. Therefore, is the purpose of this study to broaden the discussion about Affiliate marketing. Furthermore, this thesis will try to understand how Swedish fashion companies have incorporated Affiliate marketing to overcome market entry barriers. The result from the empirical findings gave indications that Affiliate marketing has had an impact on the Swedish fashion companies’ expansion. It was important for the interviewed companies to collaborate with different bloggers and websites, to create a certain awareness about the companies’ products on the new markets. The study also showed that Affiliate marketing could lower entry barriers by itself but also exposes businesses to new barriers as logistic- and payment solutions that must work simultaneously. The outcome of the study shows that it is significantly important for a Swedish fashion company to have a proper logistics- and payment system in place before a company implements Affiliate marketing, as the method will otherwise prove ineffective. / Enligt en rapport från Tillväxtverket är den svenska marknaden för mode för liten för att mätta allabefintliga bolag. För att nå ut till nya kunder har svenska modeföretag använt sig av e-handel ochonline marknadsföring. Affiliate marketing är en kostnadseffektiv digital marknadsföringsmetod somsvenska modeföretag har använt sig av. Eftersom att det är vitalt för svenska företag att marknadsförasig på och exportera sina produkter till andra marknader är syftet med uppsatsen att breddaforskningen kring Affiliate och försöka förstå Affiliate marketings roll i svenska modeföretagexpansionsstrategi och hur företagen har använt Affiliate marketing i sin expandering. Efter att ha genomfört intervjuer gav resultatet från empirin indikationer om att Affiliate marketinghade haft en påverkan på svenska modeföretags genomförda expansion utomlands. Det var viktigt förde intervjuade företagen att kunna samverka med olika intressenter som kunde agera publicister ochskapade intresse på de nya marknaderna. Resultatet visade att Affiliate marketing inte enskilt kundesänka etableringshinder utan att företag var tvungna att genomföra andra åtgärder samtidigt.Det var av större vikt att som företag ha implementerat en fungerande logistik- och betalningslösningpå plats innan svenska modeföretag använde sig av någon typ av marknadsföring som exempelvisAffiliate marketing.

Handel via internet har vuxit i rekordfart vilket har lett till fler hemleveranser och därmed fler transporter. Samtidigt ökar behovet av att minska konsumtionens klimatpåverkan. Symboler har varit ett frekvent använt verktyg för att förmedla produkters miljöpåverkan. Hur konsumenter anser att transportens miljöpåverkan sak kommuniceras är ännu ett outforskat område. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur e-handelskonsumenter anser att kommunikation av miljövänligare transport bör utformas för att det miljövänligare alternativet ska framstå som mer attraktivt. Vidare vill vi undersöka om det finns skillnader och likheter i frågan mellan konsumenter med olika karaktärsdrag och i sådana fall vilka skillnader och likheter. Denna kvantitativa studie antar en deduktiv ansats där undersökningen utformas med tidigare forskning som bakgrund. En tvärsnittsdesign ligger till grund för det empiriska materialet och urvalet är e-handelskonsumenter av dagligvaror. Studiens resultat visar att enligt konsumenterna ska kommunikationen av miljövänligare transport bestå av formatet symbol och informationen ska ta hänsyn till att de motiveras mest av att göra gott för omvärlden och miljön, att ta eget ansvar samt att förstå konsekvenserna av sina val. Det största hindret enligt konsumenterna är pris. Vidare upptäcktes vissa samband mellan konsumenternas karaktärsdrag och vilken kommunikation de anser gör den miljövänligare transporten mer attraktiv. / Introduction Online shopping has grown rapidly which has led to an increased home delivery transportation. At the same time, the importance of decreasing the climate impact from consumption is a fact. Symbols have been a popular tool to communicate the environmental impact of products. The consumers’ opinions regarding how the communication of environmentally friendly transports should be made, is still an unexplored area. Purpose The purpose of the study is to investigate how e-commerce consumers consider that communication of environmentally friendly transportation should be designed to make that option more attractive. Furthermore, we want to investigate whether there may be differences and similarities between consumers with different characteristics and, in such cases, which those are. Method This quantitative study has a deductive approach and the survey was designed upon a foundation of previous research. The empirical material consists of a survey where the selection was ecommerce consumers of groceries. Conclusion This study’s results show that, according to the consumers, communication of environmentally friendly transportation should consist of the format symbol and the information should consider that they are mostly motivated by doing good for their surrounding world, acting responsibly and understanding the consequences of their action. The largest obstacle for the consumers is the price. Furthermore, some relationships were identified between consumer characteristics and what type of communication they consider makes more environmentally friendly transport attractive.
