Den trojanska bloggen : Bloggreklam, en effektiv marknadsföringskanal?

Salomon, Rebecca, Dzielak, Dominika January 2008 (has links)
Purpose  <br />The purpose of this paper is from a consumer perspective analysis whether or not blogs are affecting a customer’s purchase behaviour to a larger extent compared to traditional marketing methods through TV commercials. Additionally, within the scope of this try to identify the type of consumers that are more influenced to a purchase decision by blog contents compared to others.<br /><br />Methods <br />Through a quantitative approach this study will examine the effectiveness of advertising in blogs. A survey was used in order to collect data where the respondents corresponded to the population in Sweden in the ages 15-79. Initially the size of the blog audience was estimated and thereafter it was examined how many of these that were affected towards a purchase decision by blogs. Finally a profile of these highly interesting individuals was presented based on demographic variables. In parallel the traditional marketing channel – TV commercials – was analysed in the same manner. Subsequently, to be able to map out the effectiveness of blogs a distinct comparison to TV commercials were made.<br /><br />Conclusions<br />More than half of the population is reading blogs to some extent and a tenth of these are reading blogs regularly. The success of blogs can largely be attributed to the fact that the usage of the Internet is growing in today’s society and to interact with new media is enticing. The majority, 82 % are avoiding TV commercials by either switching channels or leaving the TV set. 30 % are affected in their purchase behaviour by recommendations received via blogs while a mere 8 % admit that they are influenced by TV commercials. Based on these conclusions it is determined that blogs are a fairly effective marketing channel. The ideal target group for blog marketing is women between the ages 15-29 that are single, living in a large city in the middle of Sweden, with an unknown occupation and prefer fashion and music blogs. / Syfte<br />Syftet med uppsatsen är att utifrån konsumentperspektivet utforska huruvida och i så fall varför bloggar påverkar konsumentens köpbeteende i större utsträckning än den traditionella marknadsföringsmetoden via TV-reklam, samt att inom ramen för detta söka identifiera de konsumenter som påverkas mest till köpbeslut av bloggars innehåll. Metod<br />Genom ett kvantitativt tillvägagångssätt belyser studien effektiviteten av reklam via bloggar. En enkätundersökning har använts som datainsamlingsmetod där populationen motsvarar Sveriges befolkning i åldern 15-79 år. Till att börja med uppskattades storleken på bloggpubliken och därefter utforskades hur många av dessa som påverkas till köpbeslut av bloggar. Sist presenterades en profil av dessa högintressanta individer utifrån demografiska variabler. Parallellt har den traditionella marknadsföringskanalen TV-reklam bearbetats på samma tillvägagångssätt. För att kunna klarlägga bloggars effektivitet har därmed en distinkt jämförelse med TV-reklam gjorts.<br /><br />Slutsatser<br />Mer än hälften av populationen läser bloggar i någon grad varav en tiondel läser bloggar regelbundet. Bloggars framgång kan till stor del bero på att Internetanvändningen ökar i dagens samhälle och att interagera med nya medium attraherar. Majoriteten, 82 % undviker TV-reklam genom att antingen byta kanal eller gå ifrån TV-apparaten. 30 % påverkas i sina köpbeteenden av rekommendationer förmedlade via bloggar medan knappt 8 % medger att TV-reklam påverkar dem. Utifrån dessa konklusioner kan konstateras att bloggar är en tämligen effektiv marknadsföringskanal. Den ultimata målgruppen för bloggmarknadsföring är kvinna, mellan 15-29 år, singel, bor i en storstad i Svealand, med en icke bekant sysselsättning som helst läser mode- och musikbloggar.

Lehto, Fredrik, Gunnstam, Hampus January 2021 (has links)
Marketing is in a constant change where several industries are going from a traditional marketing towards a more digital marketing aspect. Precisely for the construction industry, previous studies show that small enterprises have not kept up with developments and believe that small enterprises in the construction industry often have a lack of knowledge in the field of marketing communication. The study is based on a qualitative research method with a deductive applied approach.The study is based on empirical data collected from six small enterprises in the construction industry in Dalarna. With the support of theory and previous research, the study has been able to resume how small enterprises in the construction industry work with marketing communication to create sales. The research study results in, that small enterprises in the construction industry using both traditional and digital marketing communications. Results of various traditional marketing communications used by small enterprises are business cards, flyers, logos on vehicles and sponsorship to create customer recognition and trust. Small enterprises also use digital marketing communications in the form of websites and social media to make it easier for customers to find them and create interaction with their customers. Through this marketing communications, small enterprises can create sales to their companies. / Marknadsföringsarbetet befinner sig i en ständig förändring där flera branscher går från ett traditionellt marknadsföringsarbete till ett mer digitalt marknadsföringsarbete. Just för byggbranschen visar tidigare studier på att småföretag inom byggbranschen inte har hängt med i utvecklingen och menar på att småföretag inom byggbranschen ofta har bristande kunskap inom marknadskommunikationens område. Problemet som uppstår är dels att småföretagen får nöja sig med generella teorier och modeller, dels att småföretagen ofta ha rbegränsade resurser. Samtidigt visar studier på att konsumenter inom byggbranschen upplever det svårt att hitta hantverkare vilket leder studien in på hur småföretag inom byggbranschen använder marknadskommunikation för att skapa försäljning på konsumentmarknaden. Studien har utgångspunkt i en kvalitativ forskningsmetod med en deduktiv tillämpad ansats. Studien baseras på empiri insamlad från sex småföretag inom byggbranschen i Dalarna som tillsammans utgör den empiriska data som uppfyller studiens syfte. Med stöd av teori och tidigare forskning har studien kommit fram till hur småföretag inom byggbranschen arbetar med marknadskommunikation för att skapa försäljning. Forskningsstudien resulterar i att småföretag inom byggbranschen använder sig av både traditionell-/ och digital marknadskommunikation. Resultatet av olika traditionella marknadskommunikationer som småföretagen använder är visitkort, reklamblad, logotyper på arbetsfordon och sponsring för att skapa igenkänning och förtroende hos kunder. Småföretagen använder även digitala marknadskommunikationer i form av webbsidor och sociala medier för att göra det lättare för kunder att hitta dem samt skapa interaktion med sina kunder. Generella slutsatser är att småföretag inom byggbranschen ofta strukturerar sin marknadskommunikation efter resurser eller eget intresse och att huvudsyftet med marknadskommunikationen grundar sig i att skapa igenkänning och förtroende för varumärket. Genom dessa marknadskommunikationer har småföretag inom byggbranschen möjlighet att skapa försäljning.

The perception of social media as a promotional mix element in star-graded accommodation establishments in the Western Cape province of South Africa

Van Niekerk, Claudette 12 1900 (has links)
Since the advent of the Internet, the number of individuals and organisations using tools such as the World Wide Web and cell phones has increased, and is continuing to grow at a rapid pace. Social media has provoked fundamentally different ways of doing business, and organisations rapidly had to get on this social media bandwagon to stay up to date with the latest market trends and ahead of the competition. Although social media is already broadly used among South African businesses, the perception regarding the use of social media as a promotional mix element has not been investigated sufficiently in South Africa. The primary purpose of this study was therefore to determine the perception of star-graded accommodation establishments, operating in the Western Cape province of South Africa, regarding the use of social media as a promotional mix element. A broad and in-depth literature review was conducted on the use of social media and social media as a probable promotional mix element. An empirical study was conducted, in which data was collected from star-graded accommodation establishments operating in the Western Cape by means of a web-based (computer-assisted) self-administered questionnaire. A quantitative approach was followed in order to satisfy the research objectives of this study. The results of this research study indicate that social media is perceived to be an instrumental marketing element in star-graded accommodation establishments and can indeed be considered an element of the promotional mix. / Business Management / MCOM (Business Management)
