Marketing Mix Modelling has been used since the 1950s, leveraging statistical inference to attribute media investments to sales. Typically, regression models have been used to model the relationship between the two. However, the media landscape evolves at an increasingly rapid pace, driving the need for more refined models which are able to accurately capture these changes. One class of such models are Bayesian structural time series, which are the focal point in this thesis. This class of models retains the relationship between media investments and sales, while also allowing for model parameters to vary over time. The effectiveness of these models is evaluated with respect to prediction accuracy and certainty, both in and out-of-sample. A total of four different models of varying degrees of complexity were investigated. It was concluded that the in-sample performance was similar across models, yet when it came to out-of-sample performance models with time-varying performance outperformed their static counterparts, with respect to uncertainty. Furthermore, the functional form of the intercept influenced the uncertainty of the forecasts on extended time horizons. / Marketing mix modellering har använts sedan 1950-talet för att dra slutsatser om hur mediainvesteringar påverkar försäljning, med hjälp av statistisk inferens. Vanligtvis har regressionmodeller använts för att modellera relationen mellan de två. Men medielandskapet utvecklas allt snabbare, vilket kräver mer sofistikerade modeller som kan fånga upp dessa förändringar på ett mer precist sätt. En klass av sådana modeller är Bayesianska strukturella tidsseriemodeller, som är fokus för detta arbete. Denna klass av modeller bibehåller den strukturella relationen mellan mediainvesteringar och försäljning, samtidigt som de också tillåter modellparametrarna att variera över tid. Effektiviteten hos modellerna bedöms med avseende på noggrannhet och säkerhet, både tränings- och testdata. Totalt fyra olika modeller med varierande komplexitet undersöktes. Det konstaterades att prestandan på träningsdata var likvärdig mellan modellerna, men när det gällde testdata presterade modeller med tidsvarierande parametrar bättre än sina statiska motsvarigheter, med avseende på osäkerhet. Dessutom påverkade den funktionella formen av interceptet osäkerheten hos prognoserna över längre tidshorisonter.

Titel: Standardisering/anpassning som internationella marknadsföringsstrategier inom upplevelseindustrin Nivå: C-uppsats i ämnet företagsekonomi Författare: Heiko Voeste och Olga Gutman Handledare: Akmal Hyder Datum: 2014 – 05 Syfte: Forskningen om upplevelseinriktade företags marknadsföringsstrategier anses vara otillräcklig, trots att denna industri tillhör den snabbt expanderande tjänstemarknaden. Vi valde därför att utföra denna forskning för att bidra till utvecklingen av teorin inom detta område. Syftet med den här studien har varit att ta reda på hur internationella företag inom upplevelseindustrin arbetar med marknadsföringsstrategier, med avseende på anpassning och standardisering av marknadsföringsmixen. I vårt arbete har vi studerat:  hur upplevelseinriktade företag utformar sina internationella marknadsföringsstrategier;  olika faktorer som påverkar valet av strategier;  hur företag utformar marknadsföringsmixen för att skapa unika erbjudande för sina kunder. Metod: Vår empiriska undersökning baseras på kvalitativ forskning i form av flerfallstudier. Vi undersökte tre verksamheter som agerar inom upplevelseindustrin och har genomfört tio semi-strukturerade intervjuer inom dessa tre företag. Resultat & slutsats: Det vi kom fram till i denna studie var att de undersökta upplevelseinriktade företagen använder sig av både standardiserings- och anpassningsstrategier. Hänsyn tas till varje komponent av marknadsföringsmixen. Valet av marknadsföringsstrategier av dessa företag beror främst på sådana faktorer som, det unika erbjudandet, kulturen, ekonomin samt graden av internationellt verkande. Förslag till fortsattforskning: Vår studie är ganska begränsad eftersom den endast omfattar tre företag, två från Sverige och en från Tyskland. Detta leder till låg generaliserbarhet av vårt arbete. En mer omfattande studie av flera företag från flera olika länder krävs för att skapa mer generella slutsatser om marknadsföringsprinciper inom upplevelseindustrin. Uppsatsens bidrag: Vi hoppas att med detta arbete kunna bidra till utvecklingen av teorier om marknadsföringsstrategier inom upplevelseindustrin. Vi anser att vårt arbete ökar förståelsen inom detta område, främst med hänsyn till standardisering och anpassning samt ger förståelse för vilken roll faktorer som kultur och ekonomi har i valet av internationell strategi. Nyckelord: upplevelseindustrin, internationalisering, marknadsföringsstrategier, standardisering, anpassning, marknadsföringsmix, erbjudande.
