Social Media ist in der heutigen Gesellschaft von enormer Bedeutung, weltweit gibt es rund 2,46 Mrd. Nutzer. Aufgrund dieser Tatsache nimmt auch die Bedeutung für Unternehmen, insbesondere im Bereich des Marketing, immer mehr zu. Instrumente im Social Media Marketing sind nicht nur Soziale Netzwerke wie Facebook, Instagram und Snapchat,sondern auch Blogs, Webforen, Podcasts, Bewertungsportale sowie Foto- und Videosharing-Portale wie Youtube. Social Media Marketing wird von Unternehmen überwiegend zur Steigerung der Bekanntheit, Kundenbindung, Verbesserung des Images und für den besseren Zugang zur Zielgruppe und anderen potentiellen Kunden eingesetzt. Diese Gründe stimmen mit wesentlichen Zielsetzungen bei der Gründung eines Unternehmens bzw. von jungen Unternehmen, sogenannten Startups, überein. Darüber hinaus ist Social Media Marketing ein besonders kostengünstiges Marketinginstrument mit hoher Reichweite und somit ideal für Startups, die meist nur über begrenzte finanzielle Ressourcen verfügen, geeignet.
Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit werden zu Beginn einige wichtige theoretische Grundlagen zum Thema Startup und Marketing-Kommunikation betrachtet. Anschließend wird die besondere Rolle des Social Media Marketing für Startups analysiert. Vor einem abschließenden Fazit wird als Best
-Practice-Beispiel das Startup Freeletics vorgestellt, um einen direkten Bezug zur Praxis herzustellen.
The halo effect in sports
(2018)
A halo effect can lead to significantly biased and distorted judgments in numerous situations and settings in daily life. However, its impact has barely been researched in the sporting environment, although it might help a great deal in understanding how sport fans think and behave. This paper provides an international literature review on the halo effect in different research fields. Built upon this state of the art, an empirical study based on two German soccer clubs, VfB Stuttgart and FC Bayern Munich, analyzes the presence of halo effects explained by social identity theory. The study shows that supporters rate aspects of the respective team, for example the president’s competency, more favorable than common sport spectators, and this effect even increases with a higher level of team identification.
Die neuen Geldgeber der FIFA
(2018)
Das Image des Fußball-Weltverbands bei westlichen Unternehmen befindet sich schon seit längerem im Sinkflug. Doch umgekehrt ist die FIFA bei der Auswahl ihrer Geldgeber nicht wählerisch. Solange genug Cash fließt, sind auch autokratisch regierte Länder gern gesehene Partner des Fußball-Weltverbands.
Lessons from sports : what corporate managers can learn from international professional sports
(2018)
Although sports is generally defined as motor activity, it has always been much more than that. Since management and sports follow the same objective of achieving highest performance, correlations between these two fields nowadays become increasingly interesting in terms of corporate strategy. This paper aims to point out how organisations as well as individuals can benefit from the general and psychological values and strategies of international professional sports, by first looking at the general framework of professional sports and further applying approaches from various types of sports directly to certain business functions like general management, human resource management and marketing management.
Purpose: This study aims to conceptualize and test the effect of consumers´ perceptions of complaint handling quality (PCHQ) in both traditional and social media channels.
Design/methodology/approach: Study 1 systematically reviews the relevant literature and then carries out a consumer and manager survey. This approach aims to conceptualize the dimensionality of PCHQ. Study 2 tests the effect of PCHQ on key marketing outcomes. Using survey data from a German telecommunications company, the study provides an explanation for the differences in outcomes across traditional (hotline) and social media channels.
Findings: Study 1 reveals that PCHQ is best conceptualized as a five dimensional construct with 15 facets. There are significant differences between customers and managers in terms of the importance attached to the various dimensions. The construct shows strong psychometric properties with high reliability and validity, thereby opening up opportunities to treat these facets as measurement indicators for the construct. Study 2 indicates that the effect of PCHQ on consumer loyalty and word-of-mouth (WOM) communication is stronger in social media than in traditional channels. Procedural justice and the overall quality of service solutions emerge as general dimensions of PCHQ because they are equally important in both channels. In contrast, interactional justice, distributive justice and customer effort have varying effects across the two channels.
Research limitations/implications: This study contributes to the understanding of a firm´s channel selection for complaint handling in two ways. First, it evaluates and conceptualizes the PCHQ construct. Second, it compares the effects of different dimensions of PCHQ on key marketing outcomes across traditional and socialmedia channels.
Practical implications: This study enables managers to understand the difference in efficacy attached to different dimensions of PCHQ. It further highlights such differences across traditional and social media service channels. For example, the effect of complaint handling on social media is of particular importance when generating WOM communication.
Originality/value: This study offers a comprehensive conceptualization of the PCHQ construct and reveals the general and channel contingent effects of its different dimensions on key marketing outcomes.
Die hohen Schulden in einigen Staaten der Europäischen Wirtschafts- und Währungsunion lassen nach wie vor staatliche Insolvenzen befürchten. Um die bereits entstandenen Probleme zu bewältigen, aber auch damit eine solche Situation künftig gar nicht erst eintritt, ist eine staatliche Insolvenzordnung erforderlich.
This article investigates the fundamental value of digital platforms, such as Facebook and Google. Despite the transformative nature of digital technologies, it is challenging to value digital services, given that the usage is free of charge. Applying the methodology of discrete choice experiments, we estimated the value of digital free goods. For the first time in the literature, we obtained data for the willingness-to-pay and willingness-to-accept, together with socio-economic variables. The customer´s valuation of free digital services is on average, for Google, 121 € per week and Facebook, 28 €.
The paper studies the reform package proposed by the European Commission on 6 December 2017. First, institutional and economic implications of the reform proposal are analysed. The paper finds that some proposals are beyond the present treaty provisions. For instance, the proposal of a fiscal capacity does not tackle the economic root causes without a supranational transfer mechanism. In fact, the proposed budget neutrality over the medium-term is unfeasible due to cross country heterogeneity in the Eurozone. At the end, the paper develops policy conclusions.
Sport-Events emotionalisieren das Publikum. Einstellungsänderungen bzw. Imageverbesserungen stellen deshalb zentrale Zielsetzungen im Sport-Event-Marketing dar. Dies rührt insbesondere daher, dass eine hohe Korrelation zwischen der Einstellung bzw.dem Image einer Marke oder eines Unternehmens und dem tatsächlichen Kaufverhalten der Konsumenten angenommen wird. Im Folgenden wird ein spezifisches Imagetransfermodell für das Sport-Event-Marketing entwickelt und die Bedingungen für das Zustandekommen eines Imagetransfers von einem Sport-Event auf eine Marke bzw. ein Unternehmen erläutert. Je nachdem, ob die notwendige und/oder hinreichende Bedingung erfüllt ist, lassen sich verschiedene Konsequenzen bzw. Implikationen für die Unternehmenspraxis unterscheiden.
Latest advancements in new technologies have made it possible to fully automate the in-plant material flow of small load carriers between the warehouse and the production or assembly line. However, none of methods available in literature fully addresses the planning and dimensioning problem of a logistic system based on these new autonomous technologies. This paper is set to present a method to estimate the fleet size of the new logistic system. After an overview on the state of the art, the method based on combinatorics and probability theory will be explained. A short discussion and suggestions for forthcoming research will conclude the paper.
