Book Influencer Marketing Applications Within the Metaverse

Download or read book Influencer Marketing Applications Within the Metaverse written by Bansal, Rohit and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2023-05-22 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The metaverse is an immersive digital world that combines augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) to allow people to interact online as if they were in the physical world. While everything in the metaverse doesn’t exist in the physical world, it still offers unique opportunities for customers to experience your brand. The metaverse is free from physical limitations, presenting a novel opportunity for brands. Just as e-commerce revolutionized the way people shop, so could the metaverse. And by taking advantage of the metaverse's ability to bridge the gap between physical and virtual commerce, brands can use it to enrich their consumers' shopping experiences. To be successful, brands must quickly learn from mistakes and build on successful campaigns to stand out. The metaverse is data-driven, and marketers can use this in creating their growth strategies. Because growth marketing involves continuous experimentation and testing, brands can use this virtual world as their stomping ground to analyze their various marketing campaigns and observe consumer behavior. Influencer Marketing Applications Within the Metaverse explores how enterprises experimenting with the metaverse can connect, engage with, and incentivize human and machine customers to create new value exchanges, revenue streams, and markets. The book examines how brands can enrich their consumers’ shopping experiences by taking advantage of the metaverse's ability to bridge the gap between physical and virtual commerce. Covering topics such as augmented and virtual reality, customer experience, and gamification, this book is ideal for marketing practitioners, researchers, undergraduate and postgraduate students, non-government and government organizations, and more.

Book Business Transformation for a Sustainable Future

Download or read book Business Transformation for a Sustainable Future written by Samuel Petros Sebhatu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-05 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interconnecting the concepts of sustainability, innovation and transformation, this book explains how organizations have successfully transformed themselves and wider society to foster a more sustainable future, and identifies the difficulties and challenges along the way. Part of the Principle of Responsible Management Education (PRME) series, the book promotes a strong voice for meeting sustainability challenges for transformative change in a globalized world through business education and practice. A transition to a more sustainable way of doing business can only be attained by combining technology with profound system innovations and lifestyle changes. The chapters in the book, each written by a strong and well-recognized team of researchers in the field, open up the discussion about a new partnership between sustainability, innovation, and transformation that includes the global society (big world), the biosphere (small planet), and also requires a deep mind shift. The book presents cases from business (including Ikea and Eataly) and other service networks including the Base of the Pyramid (BoP), and illustrates how these organizations have transformed themselves for a sustainable future. The research perspectives are macro (policies and legislation), meso (institutional practices) and micro (business practices and individual behavior). This book is where research meets real-world business and societal practice. The chapters are grounded in business research, specifically the interdependencies between sustainability, innovation, and transformation, which makes for a robust basis for describing, explaining, and understanding the complex challenges faced by business and society in the 21st century. The book is intended for graduate- and postgraduate-level students and executive education with implications for practitioners. Furthermore, it contributes to multidisciplinary research in the field of interaction between business and society with a view to extending the firm-centric view to encompass a broader, systemic, and dynamic understanding of business and societal transformation.

Book Consumer Brand Relationships

Download or read book Consumer Brand Relationships written by Susan Fournier and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-29 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The creation and management of customer relationships is fundamental to the practice of marketing. Marketers have long maintained a keen interest in relationships: what they are, why they are formed, what effects they have on consumers and the marketplace, how they can be measured and when and how they evolve and decline. While marketing research has a long tradition in the study of business relationships between manufacturers and suppliers and buyers and sellers, attention in the past decade has expanded to the relationships that form between consumers and their brands (such as products, stores, celebrities, companies or countries). The aim of this book is to advance knowledge about consumer-brand relationships by disseminating new research that pushes beyond theory, to applications and practical implications of brand relationships that businesses can apply to their own marketing strategies. With contributions from an impressive array of scholars from around the world, this volume will provide students and researchers with a useful launch pad for further research in this blossoming area.

Book Advanced Methods for Modeling Markets

Download or read book Advanced Methods for Modeling Markets written by Peter S. H. Leeflang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-29 with total page 725 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents advanced techniques to modeling markets, with a wide spectrum of topics, including advanced individual demand models, time series analysis, state space models, spatial models, structural models, mediation, models that specify competition and diffusion models. It is intended as a follow-on and companion to Modeling Markets (2015), in which the authors presented the basics of modeling markets along the classical steps of the model building process: specification, data collection, estimation, validation and implementation. This volume builds on the concepts presented in Modeling Markets with an emphasis on advanced methods that are used to specify, estimate and validate marketing models, including structural equation models, partial least squares, mixture models, and hidden Markov models, as well as generalized methods of moments, Bayesian analysis, non/semi-parametric estimation and endogeneity issues. Specific attention is given to big data. The market environment is changing rapidly and constantly. Models that provide information about the sensitivity of market behavior to marketing activities such as advertising, pricing, promotions and distribution are now routinely used by managers for the identification of changes in marketing programs that can improve brand performance. In today’s environment of information overload, the challenge is to make sense of the data that is being provided globally, in real time, from thousands of sources. Although marketing models are now widely accepted, the quality of the marketing decisions is critically dependent upon the quality of the models on which those decisions are based. This volume provides an authoritative and comprehensive review, with each chapter including: · an introduction to the method/methodology · a numerical example/application in marketing · references to other marketing applications · suggestions about software. Featuring contributions from top authors in the field, this volume will explore current and future aspects of modeling markets, providing relevant and timely research and techniques to scientists, researchers, students, academics and practitioners in marketing, management and economics.

Book excerpt: The Beautiful Warriors: Technofeminist Practice in the 21st Century brings together seven current technofeminist positions from the fields of art and activism. In very different ways, they expand the theories and practices of 1990's cyberfeminism and thus react to new forms of discrimination and exploitation. Gender politics are negotiated with reference to technology, and questions of technology are combined with questions of ecology and economy. The different positions around this new techno-eco-feminism understand their practice as an invitation to take up their social and aesthetic interventions, to join in, to continue, and never give up. Contributions from Christina Grammatikopoulou, Isabel de Sena, Femke Snelting, Cornelia Sollfrank, Spideralex, Sophie Toupin, hvale vale, Yvonne Volkart.

Book Experiential Marketing

Download or read book Experiential Marketing written by Wided Batat and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-28 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do some brands make us feel good, while others frustrate us? What makes us engage with certain brands, rebuy the same products, return to the same store or revisit the same destination over and over again? Is there a framework underlying how past and lived shopping experiences can affect our future experiences, our buying decisions, and our brand loyalty? In this exciting new book, Wided Batat introduces readers to the new customer experience framework and the era of the "Experiential Marketing Mix." She introduces the concept of the 7Es (Experience, Exchange, Extension, Emphasis, Empathy, Emotional touchpoints, Emic/Etic process); a tool that focuses on the consumer as a starting point in marketing strategies. By using these, companies can design suitable, emotional, and profitable customer experiences in a phygital context (physical place and digital space) including both offline and online digital experiences. Batat argues that a traditional product-centric should be replaced by the appropriate mix of 7Es, based upon a more consumer/experience-centric logic. Experiential Marketing is a guide to building experiences consumers cannot forget. It will be of interest for CEOs, brand managers, marketing and communication professionals, students, and anyone eager to learn more about how to design the ultimate customer experience in a new phygital. In this book, Professor Batat combines theory and practice and gives readers an overview of: the origins and the rise of the customer experience logic, the 7Es of the new experiential marketing mix, and the challenges for the future.
