Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Celebrity endorsement is one of the most popular and effective strategies in advertising. Celebrities are perceived as attractive and having both likable qualities and influential power. Marketers have become more aware of the influence celebrities have on individuals and have harnessed this into advertising products and services. Empirical studies have shown that celebrities have been very effective in advertising low-risk products and services. But how effective is this strategy in advertising high-risk products and services? This study employed the elaboration likelihood model to investigate the impact of a celebrity endorser compared to a non-celebrity endorser on consumer behavior in advertising high-risk products/services with a focus on dietary supplements. The results of this study show that consumers used more of the peripheral route of information processing in examining the celebrity advertisement. There was no significant difference in the impact between the celebrity endorser and non-celebrity endorser.They both had a positive relationship with attitude toward the product. However, they did not significantly affect consumers’ purchase intention."--Abstract.

This book was released on 2005-12-15 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 1,3, Technical University of Chemnitz, course: Seminar, language: English, abstract: Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Heidi Klum, Günther Jauch, Thomas Gottschalk, they have all something in common. They are famous due to their public appearance and achievements in sport, television, magazines etc. Additionally, all of them are promoting or endorsing prod-ucts. The use of famous spokesperson or celebrities in marketing communications in the United States is growing since the late 1970’s and has reached a percentage of nearly 25% at the end of the 1990’s. Statistics for the german market also suggest an increased use of fa-mous testimonials, although their percentage relative to other communication strategies is seen as lower. Some researchers contend a positive economic effect of celebrity endorse-ments despite they are very expensive. Noticing that endorsement contracts with celebrities are expensive raises several questions. What makes them so interesting for companies? Why are marketeers using celebrities instead of “normal” people? For executive directors it may be useful to know how the “right” celebrity could be selected from the big crowd of popular per-sons. Furthermore, which are the factors predicting wether a celebrity is effective or not as an endorser? From a more scientific point of view, it is interesting to shed light to the processes through which consumers perceive advertisements with celebrities. As the title of this study suggests, these questions are answered in a somehow theoretical way, but with some practical conclusions. Chapter 2 explains to which extent the celebrity may be part of the communication process and which effectiveness criteria exist. Having defined and classified the main concepts of this paper in chapter 2, which are celebrity endorsement and schemas, some models that are related to celebrity endorsements are explained. Research of celebrity endorsement has focused mainly on four different approaches. First, the characteris-tics of an endorser as a source of information, divided in attractiveness (3.1) and credibility (3.2). Additionally, Match-Up between product and endorser characteristics are examined (3.3). Finally, in a more comprehensive model, researchers investigated in transfer of mean-ings from celebrities to products and then to consumers (3.4). This study will end with some limitations and expectations to further research.

Download or read book Consumers Perceptions and Responses to Advertising with Product Endorsements by Traditional Celebrities and Online Influencers written by Fei Fan and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of celebrity endorsement has been widely adopted in advertising industries around the world. In the Chinese advertising world, celebrity endorsement has been a commonly used strategy since 2010. Celebrities from the entertainment and sports industries have been frequently employed to promote messages about advertised brands or products. This is a traditional way of celebrity endorsement. Recently, however, the development of new media has led to the emergence of self-made micro-celebrities, termed 'online influencers' in this dissertation. Facing the popularity of online influencers in the digital world, marketing communication practitioners have started using them to advertise brands and products, and to engage target audiences in advertisements. A new way of celebrity endorsement has developed. As a result, advertisers need to make decisions on whether to adopt traditional celebrity endorsement or online influencer endorsement. In this regard, it is necessary to figure out which celebrity endorsement method, traditional celebrity or online influencer endorsement, is more persuasive. Our study aims to explore how celebrity-audience relational motives (information, entertainment, and involvement motives) interact with celebrity endorser's typology (traditional celebrities or online influencers) to determine the persuasiveness of celebrity endorsement appeals in advertising. The study's conceptual framework hypothesized that celebrity-audience relational motives play a determining role in the audiences' attitudes toward celebrities, whereas celebrity typology adjusts the impact of celebrity-audience relational motives on the audience's attitude toward celebrities. Also, it was theorized that audiences' attitudes toward celebrities would influence the persuasiveness of advertisements containing celebrity endorsements. In this causal relationship, the celebrity-product fit moderates its impact. A mixed methodology was applied in this dissertation. The first method used was qualitative personal interviews, conducted with 15 Chinese respondents between August 2018 and February 2019. This exploratory study's purpose was to get audience's insights on their perceptions of traditional celebrity and online influencer endorsement, and to develop a conceptual framework based on the empirical data. Results in the first exploratory study revealed that compared with online influencers, a much closer relationship was found between interviewees and traditional celebrities. Also, the overall affective evaluation of traditional celebrities and their endorsement appeal was found to be more positive than that of online influencers. The second study confirms that celebrity-audience relational motives significantly determine the audience's attitude toward celebrity endorsers. The stronger the relational motives are, the more positive audience's attitude could be. Besides, celebrity typology effectively moderates the impact of entertainment motive on attitude toward celebrity endorsers. Moreover, if audiences evaluated celebrity endorsers positively, the persuasiveness of advertising with celebrity endorsement would be significantly improved on both affective and behavioral levels. Furthermore, the celebrity-product fit further enhances the advertising persuasiveness. Based on the findings, theoretical and marketing communication implications are suggested to enlighten communication practitioners on how to select celebrity endorsers and what factors to consider to guarantee the persuasiveness of advertising through celebrity endorsement appeals.
Download or read book Analyzing Parasocial Influence of Celebrity Endorsement written by Inessa Lotonina and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social media plays an important part in modern society. Marketing professionals started to pay attention to social media in search for new ways to promote products and services online. One of the most recognized ways to promote the product is with the use of celebrity endorsement. Marketing scholars pinpointed that using celebrity endorsement for reaching Millennial consumers is very effective. During the process of endorsement, a publicly recognized person promotes the product by appearing with it in an advertisement. Celebrities appeared in product promotion ever since television set has become a necessary household item. Television viewers were highly interested in celebrities and researchers attempted to explain why the viewers are so captivated by them. In 1956, Horton and Wohl invented parasocial interactions theory to explain the phenomenon of fascination with celebrities. Horton and Wohl were the first to suggest that celebrities are effective in product promotion due to viewers' aspiration to be more similar to them.The purpose of this thesis is to explore how parasocial interactions shape consumer behavior of Russian Millennials. The research will pay close attention to psychological undertones of publicly recognized individuals' persuasion on their followers that influences their consumer behavior. Parasocial interactions between celebrity and their followers constitutes the research phenomenon of this thesis. Parasocial influence on consumers is still not clearly explained by the theoretical knowledge. An attempt to address this issue was made by parasocial interactions theory as well as by endorser source effect literature. However, recent research articles regarding parasocial interactions point out that new social media context creates a need for further investigation. Semi-structured interviews were used in this research, with overall twelve participants from Russia. All participants were female Millennials aged 25-28. Seven reoccurring themes were identified from the interview data, showcasing how parasocial interactions influenced consumer behavior of social media followers. These themes include pursuing celebrity experience, establishing high level of trust with celebrity, pursuing self-transformation through meaning-based consumption, adopting celebrity's lifestyle and habits, fulfilling the need to belong, stepping outside the consumption comfort zone and actively pursuing higher level of attractiveness. This research contributes to both parasocial interactions and celebrity endorsement literature by providing consumers' perspective on persuasiveness of social media endorsements. It was revealed that followers see celebrities that they emotionally engage with as trustable individuals and are willing to purchase their products without hesitation. As followers are open to try new products, it creates wide possibilities for marketers to utilize celebrity endorsement to its full potential. The biggest opportunity can be identified in endorsement of beauty and fashion products, since followers revealed great interest in enhancing their physical appearance. However, followers' trust must be maintained by celebrities choosing endorsements wisely and not engaging with promotion of non-related products.

Download or read book Psychological Processes and Advertising Effects written by Linda F. Alwitt and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-02-16 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1980s our understanding of how advertising affects consumer behavior was undergoing a dramatic transformation. Recent theoretical and methodological advances in cognitive psychology, social cognition, and artificial intelligence were largely responsible for this transformation. These advances provided a better understanding of the information acquisition process and how information is stored in memory. Consequently, we have been able to incorporate memory, the processing of visual information and affect into our models of advertising effects. However, there were still many unanswered questions. Among these are: (1) Exactly what is the relationship between the different mediators of persuasion? (2) How is memory for advertising related to persuasion? (3) What are the theoretical underpinnings of attitude toward the advertisement? (4) What determines the effect of persuasion over time? (5) What factors affect attention to advertising? (6) What psychological processes occur during the watching of a television commercial? and (7) What factors affect individual differences in the processing of advertising messages? Originally published in 1985, the chapters in this volume provide insights into these questions. They are organized in terms of four psychological processes which contribute to our understanding of how advertising works. These are affective reactions to advertisements, persuasion, psychological processes during television viewing, and involvement.
