Download or read book The Anatomy of Buzz written by Emanuel Rosen and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2002-05-14 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking guide to creating the word-of-mouth magic that cuts through the skepticism and information overload of today's consumers, and drives sales-and profits-to new heights. What turns a "sleeper" into a box-office bonanza or catapults a just-released book to the top of bestseller lists? How do people decide which car to buy, which fashions fit the image they seek, and even which movie to see? Despite the daily assault of advertising and other traditional marketing strategies, statistics show that consumers are overwhelmingly persuaded by word of mouth-the recommendations of friends and the "buzz" that develops in the marketplace. As Newsweek recently proclaimed, "Buzz greases the great conveyor belt of culture and commerce, moving everything from movies to fashions of the body and mind faster and faster." In The Anatomy of Buzz, former marketing VP Emanuel Rosen pinpoints the products and services that benefit the most from buzz-a universe that embraces everything from high-tech equipment to books, various consumer and entertainment products to legal and other support services-and offers specific strategies for creating and sustaining effective word-of-mouth campaigns. Drawing from interviews with more than 150 executives, marketing leaders, and researchers who have successfully built buzz for major brands, Rosen describes the ins and outs of attracting the attention of influential first users and "big-mouth" movers and shakers. He also discusses proven techniques for stimulating customer-to-customer selling-including how companies can spread the word to new territories by taking advantage of customer hubs and networks on the Internet and elsewhere. Recent surveys show that 58 percent of young people rely to some extent on others when selecting a car, 53 percent of moviegoers follow the recommendations of friends, and 65 percent of the people who bought a Palm organizer were inspired by the enthusiasm of others. With The Anatomy of Buzz, business leaders have what they need to start the buzz and reignite excitement about a product or service stalled in a holding pattern, or launch a new product into the stratosphere.

Book excerpt: Ever since the creation of Web 2.0, there has been a seismic shift in how businesses advertise and promote their brands. Social media has birthed a new platform for people and organizations to interact with each other to pass information and opinions or accounts of experiences with products or services. As more consumers gravitate towards social media, firms are leveraging this sensation to engage and forge relationships with individuals which in most cases positively influence consumers' purchase decisions. However, when some customers are dissatisfied with services or products, they engage in social media negative word-of-mouth (NWOM) which could impact a brand's reputation, the consumer's purchase intention and ultimately the firm's bottom line. In the first study, 118 undergraduate students were surveyed, and empirical evidence was found to support mediating effects of brand reputation on the relationship between social media and purchase intention and moderating effects of brand engagement on the relationship between social media NWOM and brand reputation. In the second study, scenarios were presented to undergraduate students to investigate the impact of social media NWOM on small/local businesses vs. large chain businesses, the difficulty of recovery for small/local businesses, the NWOM correlation of switching behavior after product/service failure, and responses from a firm after a product/service failure. The third study replicated the findings from study two using a more diverse sample instead of students. The study expanded and explored why trust and recovery levels differ in large chain versus small/local businesses. Results indicated that small businesses suffered more from the failure in service/product but made a larger surge in trust than large chain businesses. Keywords: Negative-word-of-mouth, social media, brand engagement, business failure recovery, brand trust, switching behavior.

Download or read book Antecedents of word of mouth as a component of brand loyalty towards luxury fashion brands and its moderating factors written by Isabel Angerer and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: A, King`s College London, course: International Marketing, language: English, abstract: In today’s competitive marketplace, companies need to establish a loyal customer base in order to be successful. In particular, the fashion industry relies on a loyal customer base and a good reputation to achieve sustainable financial growth. To survive the current challenges of growing competition, marketers must ensure that customers do not only develop a personal relationship with brands but also speak favourably of them. Prior research has focused on word-of-mouth as a component of brand loyalty and its antecedents. However, this topic turned out to be inadequately investigated in the specific context of luxury fashion brands. Hence, the aim of this study is to examine how satisfaction, trust and commitment but also socio-psychological factors influence the consumer and thus have an impact on word-of-mouth. The nature of this study led to a quantitative methodological approach: an online survey investigating the sources of word-of-mouth. As a conclusion, this paper confirmed that trust and commitment were among the most important predictor variables of word-of-mouth. The main finding was, however, that socio-psychological factors such as materialism, social identity and possessiveness also increased positive word-of-mouth. However, since materialism and possessiveness are regarded as negative personality traits and cannot strengthen the effect of satisfaction, trust and commitment on word-of-mouth it is recommended that marketers concentrate on positive dimensions of word-of-mouth and brand loyalty (i.e., trust and commitment) in order to build a strong customer relationship.

Download or read book Countering the Detrimental Influence of Negative Electronic Word of Mouth Brands written by Manu Bhandari and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experiment examined information processing of brand feedback to negative electronic word of mouth (eWOM), and the moderating role of stability and controllability of the cause of the problem on brand attitudes and purchase intentions. Brand feedback, the primary concept of this study, is defined as a written response by a business to consumers’ comments or eWOM message that seeks to strengthen or uphold the businesses’ promise to satisfy the needs or desires of the consumers. eWOM, on the other hand, is defined as any informal communication consumers have between each other about products and services online (Liu, 2006) such as online product reviews. The moderating effects of two eWOM content attributes are also examined, namely stability and controllability of the cause of the problem described in the eWOM message. The primary research question for the study is: Does brand feedback affect consumers’ brand attitudes and purchase intentions, and what is the role of stability and controllability of the cause –– conceptualized as characteristics of an eWOM message –– in moderating that effect? It is well known that eWOM influence consumers’ brand attitudes and purchase intentions, but research so far has not examined what influence, if any, brands and advertisers can have in the eWOM process, especially when brands provide feedback to an eWOM message. Previous advertising research has generally conceptualized eWOM as a static form of communication, comprised of a one-way flow of information from consumers providing the eWOM to other consumers who consume the eWOM. But advances in technology and companies’ desire to participate in the eWOM conversation has prompted eWOM that is dynamic; meaning, advertisers are able to join the eWOM conversation particularly when consumers express negative thoughts or dissatisfaction about a brand’s performance. While prior research has examined psychological processes of both positive and negative eWOM messages, the present research chooses to examine brand feedback to negative eWOM only since positive eWOM most likely would not merit a brand to provide feedback. However, not all negative eWOM carry equal cognitive weight in terms of information processing and persuasiveness (Cheung, Leo, Sia, & Chen, 2009; Cheung & Thadani, 2012) and the effect of brand feedback is likely to depend on characteristics of the eWOM message, such as whether the problem is indicated to be of a stable nature (stability) or under the control of the brand (controllability). In sum, the study is a 2 (Brand Feedback: Present/Absent) X 2 (Stability: Stable/Unstable) X 2 (Controllability: Brand-Controlled/Reviewer-Controlled) between-subjects experimental design measuring the effects of brand feedback, stability and controllability on brand attitudes and purchase intentions. In addition to the burgeoning eWOM literature, the current study draws on attribution theory, as well as the service recovery, complaint handling, and hospitality management literatures. Findings suggest that brand feedback is effective in increasing brand attitudes and purchase intentions for addressing unstable rather than stable causes, with the largest net improvement seen in brand-controlled unstable causes. Theoretically, the study adds to scholarly knowledge about the role of brands and advertisers in the eWOM communication process, and whether the effect depends on eWOM attributes such as controllability and stability of the identified cause of the problem. The present research controllability and stability of the identified cause of the problem. The present research also extends the application of attribution theory, developed originally in social psychology, to a relatively new area of online retail shopping. Practically, the study’s findings will allow advertising professionals to better strategize their brand feedback to dissatisfied consumers.
