Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aims to study the influence of social networks in post-purchase, that is, in the mentions of customers presented on the internet. Concepts of digital marketing and post-purchase behavior are discussed in this work. Digital marketing means doing marketing through digital tools. It is the set of strategic actions applied in digital media (internet and mobile technologies), to win and retain customers, increasing the company's market share. The main discussion in post-purchase behavior is assessing the cognitive adequacy of the solution chosen in the purchase of a product/service concerning an initial problem, especially when the consumer believes has been deceived. The research problem was: how can post-consumer behavior influence marketing strategies on social media? The Scup tool used as a data collection procedure for surveying social media mentions about AliExpress. As a result, after applying the filter described in the procedures, we obtained 71 records (N = 71) collected in the period from October 29, 2015, to November 4, 2015, which reflect the behavior of the consumer about the post-purchase process. The result of the popularization of social networks has changed the relationship between companies and their publics. In the past those relations was processed through official customer service channels, today is via social networks, where customers expose their positive or negative opinions about product or service purchased by a particular company. Retailers like AliExpress need to improve customer experience throw social media.

Book Social Networks and their Economics

Download or read book Social Networks and their Economics written by Daniel Birke and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-07-24 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reveals how consumer choice can be better understood and influenced using social networks analysis (SNA) Intuitively, we all appreciate that we can be influenced by our friends and peers in what we do, how we behave, and what products we consume. Until recently, it has been difficult to measure this interdependence, mainly because data on social networks was difficult to collect and not readily available. More and more companies such as mobile phone carriers or social networking sites such as Facebook are collecting such data electronically. Daniel Birke illustrates in compelling real-world case studies how companies use social networks for marketing purposes and which statistical analysis and unique datasets can be used. Social Networks and their Economics: Explores network effects and the analysis of social networks, whilst providing an overview of the state-of-the art research. Looks at consumption interdependences between friends and peers: Who is influencing who through which channels and to what degree? Presents statistical methods and research techniques that can be used in the analysis of social networks. Examines SNA and its practical application for marketing purposes. Features a supporting website www.wiley.com/go/social_networks featuring SNA visualizations and business case studies. Aimed at post-graduate students involved in social network analysis, industrial economics, innovation and consumer marketing, this book offers a unique perspective from both an academic and practitioner point of view on how social networks can help understand and influence consumer behaviour. This book will prove to be a useful resource for marketing practitioners from companies where social network data is available and for consulting companies who advise businesses on marketing and social media related issues.

Book Consumer Psychology in a Social Media World

Download or read book Consumer Psychology in a Social Media World written by Claudiu V. Dimofte and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-09-16 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumer Psychology in a Social Media World seeks to illustrate the relevance of consumer psychology theory and research to understanding the social media world that has rapidly become a key component in the social and economic lives of most individuals. Despite the rapid and widespread adoption of social media by consumers, research focused on individuals’ use thereof and its implications for organizations and society has been limited and published in scattered outlets. This has made it difficult for those trying to get either a quick introduction or an in-depth understanding of the associated issues to locate relevant scientific-based information. The book is organized into five broad sections. The first presents a summary overview of social media, including a historical and cultural perspective. The second section is focused on social media as a modern form of word of mouth, always considered the most impactful on consumers. It also touches upon a motivational explanation for why social media has such a strong and broad appeal. Section three addresses the impact that consumers’ switch to social media as a preferred channel has had on marketers’ branding and promotional efforts, as well as the ways in which consumer involvement can be maintained through this process. Section four takes a methodological perspective on the topic of social media, assessing ways in which big data and consumer research are influenced by novel ways of gathering consumer feedback and gauging consumer sentiment. Finally, section five looks at some consumer welfare and public policy implications, including privacy and disadvantaged consumer concerns. Consumer Psychology in a Social Media World will appeal to those who are involved in creating, managing, and evaluating products used in social media communications. As seen in recent financial and business market successes (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest, WhatsApp, etc.), businesses focused on facilitating social media are part of the fastest growing and most valuable sector of today’s economy.

Book Social Brand Management in a Post Covid 19 Era

Download or read book Social Brand Management in a Post Covid 19 Era written by Patrícia Dias and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-07 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As activity significantly reduced during mandatory lockdown periods aiming to contain the spread of Covid-19, the relationship between organizations and their stakeholders became almost strictly digital. While some brands already have developed digital channels and made a smooth transition, others struggled to remain connected to their consumers and in the process created a panoply of new digital strategies and practices. This book discusses how the Covid-19 pandemic changed the way consumers relate with brands and how brands can reinvent, improve, or optimize themselves to meet new needs, expectations, and preferences of consumers. Drawing on empirical data about how consumers are connecting with brands in a Covid-19 recovery period, this book suggests becoming a social brand as a strategy for coping with changes in consumer behaviour. A social brand has two main dimensions: it is sociable (active on social media, humanized, and empathic) and it is socially committed (transparent and sustainable). In this concise book, the authors examine case studies of brands that coped successfully with Covid-19 and positioned themselves strongly in this post-pandemic retake period to suggest good practices. It offers an informed discussion on how brands can adapt to changes in consumer behaviour and build stronger connections with consumers. Social Brand Management in a Post Covid-19 Era provides an accessible yet comprehensive overview of brand management in a post-pandemic environment that will be of interest to marketing and communication academics, researchers, and students.
