Course of studies
Understanding consumer behavior is a crucial task for businesses as it is fundamental to analyze and implement successful marketing strategies. The following Bachelor thesis investigates the consumer behavior of Millennials, a consumer group that, due to its size and unique consumer patterns, has become ever more interesting for businesses in recent years. Firstly, this work gives an overview of the necessary steps to analyze consumer characteristics to understand the main concept of consumer behavior as analyzing consumer characteristics forms the basis of developing and finally implementing appropriate marketing strategies. Secondly, as modern technologies play an important role in consumer behavior, this Bachelor thesis analyzes the influence of advanced technological marketing tools on consumer behavior in greater depth. Thirdly, this paper takes a closer look at the millennial generation, thereby focusing on its distinct consumer behavior and its importance for businesses and societies – across time as customers as well as employees. To understand the significance of the millennial customer segment, it is not only important to contrast the consumer behavior of Millennials to those of other generations but to also get familiar with the Millennials’ main characteristics that define their consumption patterns such as their focus on status and sustainable consumption. Finally, this Bachelor thesis outlines potential opportunities and challenges for marketers today and in the years to come and provides suited recommendations on how to effectively target the millennial customer segment to best meet the expectations of Millennials.
Eigenverantwortliches Lernen gewinnt in Unternehmen zunehmend an Bedeutung. Immer mehr Firmen, so auch Schwäbisch Media, erkennen den Vorteil einer Lernplattform, welche es Mitarbeitern ermöglicht, schnell und problemnah eigenverantwortlich Wissen anzueignen. Die Einführung einer Lernplattform stellt Unternehmen jedoch vor große Herausforderungen, da sie nicht nur ein neues Lerninstrument mit sich bringt, sondern verstärkt eigenverantwortliches Lernen von den Mitarbeitern fordert. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es herauszufinden, welche Voraussetzungen in einem Unternehmen gegeben sein müssen, damit eigenverantwortliches Lernen mit einer Lernplattform ermöglicht und gefördert wird. Untersucht werden die Treiber und Barrieren von eigenverantwortlichem Lernen, um Firmen und speziell Schwäbisch Media Handlungsempfehlungen für die erfolgreiche Implementierung aufzuzeigen.
With the rise of the internet and the flood of information it provides at no cost, print is no longer the main source of information. The German magazine market has been highly affected by this change. Publishers are faced with declining sales volumes, loss of advertising income and increasing costs. The implementation of Augmented Reality technology could make print magazines less static by providing the opportunity to add extra content and create an interactive reading experience. However, so far the use cases of this technology in print magazines have been rare, which might be due to the deficiency of information publishers have about its likelihood of success. To reduce this information gap and provide some recommendations for publishers, a web survey and expert interviews were conducted to establish the consumer perspective on an implementation of AR technology and to provide a potential future outlook based on the opinions of German AR solution providers. It was concluded that an implementation of AR would lead to a value addition for consumers and would result in an increase in purchase intention. Despite also resulting in an improved perceived image of the magazine, it should only be implemented if it does not lead to an increase in price or the reduction of editorial content, to avoid losing readers, who will not access the additional content. The substantial costs involved in implementing AR as well as existing technological limitations, which affect the ease of use for consumers, will likely prevent many publishers from realising such an implementation. AR glasses will play a significant role in the decision if AR technology will have a future in German print magazines according to the interviewed experts, in case they are accepted by the general public.
Social media has become inseparable from our daily lives thanks to the widely use of internet and mobile technological advancement. Travel and tourism has benefited a lot from social media, especially the travelers. Not only can they find travel-related information on social media platforms, but they can also discuss and exchange necessary and relevant opinions and information.
The purpose of this research study is to examine how social media influences where German millennials determine their holiday destination. This dissertation analyzes to what extend social media influences the individual German millennial’s decision and whether reviews and comments affect their decisions.
The research study comprises of 5 chapters which represent the analytical process from beginning to end. The first chapter is the introduction, then literature reviews, then the methodology for primary research of this research is identified and explained. Results from the online questionnaire are then presented followed by an analysis and interpretation. Finally, the conclusion and limitation of the research have been discussed.
This research study concludes that social media does influence German millennials when they use social media to compare the holiday destinations in comparison to those who do not use social media for this purpose. It is clear that social media is the main source of information when they are looking for holiday destination information and is preferred compared to travel books and travel agencies. The results have shown that TripAdvisor is the most used holiday destination information page among other social media platforms. Furthermore, most of German millennials are passive users of travel-related social media platforms. That means they only consume information but do not necessarily write reviews or comments after their holiday experience.
The main goal of the study is to analyze students’ buying intention towards e-learning program by developing a structural model of e-learning acceptance by the students and analyzing perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitudes, subjective norms, motivations and buying intentions according to the developed model.
Die vorliegende Ausarbeitung gibt einen Überblick über die unbewusst wahrgenommenen Wirkungsweisen von hochwertigen Druckprodukten. Das durch den Wertewandel hin zur Digitalisierung bedrohte Printmarketing gibt Anlass dazu der Frage nachzugehen, inwiefern die Nutzung von veredelten Druckwerbeprodukten einen Mehrwert für die Verbraucher darstellt. Dazu werden vier Hypothesen erarbeitet, die die Wirksamkeit von verschiedenen Veredelungsarten und hochwertigem Papier testen. Zur Prüfung der Hypothesen wird eine neurowissenschaftliche Studie durchgeführt, die die Wirksamkeit anhand der Ausprägung der Gehirnaktivitäten misst. Aus der Studie geht hervor, dass sich stärker veredelte Druckprodukte positiv auf den Verbraucher auswirken können solange diese keine extremen Ausprägungen annehmen. Die höhere Wirksamkeit gegenüber keinen Veredelungen wird angenommen. Außerdem zeigen sich Wirkungsunterschiede innerhalb des visuellen und haptischen Sinnes. Daraus resultierend wird Druckereien empfohlen werbetreibenden Unternehmen von der verbesserten Wirksamkeit zu überzeugen. Diese können höhere Investitionen in Druckwerbeprodukte eingehen, da die entstehenden Mehrkosten durch den Marketingerfolg kompensiert werden. Dabei gilt es stets die Zielgruppenbestimmung im Auge zu behalten.
The influence of quality labels on perceived product value - Marketing to the conscious consumer
(2018)
Quality labels are an important cue for customers in their search for indications of product quality. They provide consumers with valuable information about production standards. Whether the value-added by labels directly translates into price premiums is still an open question, as researchers could not reach consensus so far. Moreover, the use of multiple labels on one product is another topic discussed controversially in the research literature. Current research has further identified multiple factors affecting consumers’ willingness to pay for labelled food products. For this paper, a survey among 400 shoppers from the Villingen-Schwenningen area has been conducted, in an attempt to identify the significance of various influencing factors on willingness to pay for labelled products. Four distinct food products have been tested in this survey, each in four different labelling situations. Two labels were used on the products, one indicating social standards and another certifying ecological production standards. The study identified the following factors as influential on participants’ expressed willingness to pay: product type, information and label type. The influence of missing reference prices could not be proven to be significant. The marginal effect of a second label was found to decrease for only two of the products. As the effects of each of the factors varied between the products, no general conclusion about the effects of either of them could be drawn. Therefore, the paper concludes on the note, that a general assumption about label value should not be made.
This thesis Increasing Business Success through emotionalisation? Chances and limitations of Neuromerchandising® in the food retailing industry based on the example of HIT Markt deals with the changed customer behaviour of the modern customer and the resulting challenges for the dealers in the food retailing industry. Solely providing the merchandise is nowadays not sufficient anymore to hold its own in a further developing market of the food retailing industry.
Nowadays’ consumers want to be entertained and to be addressed with all their senses. Therefore, the dealers, may it be discounters like Aldi or Edeka or high-quality dealers like HIT or Rewe are searching for ways to satisfy the changed customer needs. This requires, besides an appealing design of the store a lot more: a rethinking of the dealers by which means one can bind the customers to the own store in a very active business environment.
One thing dealers have learned by now is that you can only be sustainably successful if you address the customers on an emotional level. During this thesis it will be analysed if and how an emotionalisation of the store leads to more business success. With the help of latest findings in neuroscience the changed consumer and buying behaviour will be explained.
On this basis, the possibilities and limitations of neuromarketing® in the food retailing industry will be discussed. With regard to current developments in the food retailing industry concrete proposals for solutions will be developed, how dealers can satisfy modern customer needs better. This will be realized with a concrete practical example: the HIT Markt in Engelskirchen, on which the practical part of this thesis focusses. Finally it will be analysed how current developments will influence the future of the dealers and the food retailing industry.
People are surrounded by many offers every day, a discount, a gift or a special sale. A walk through a store can lead us to purchases which are not necessary but in our minds are worth it. Pricing may be one of the easiest ways to influence consumers and to make products more attractive.
This study compares the pricing practices “use of word free/free offers” for example buy one get one free and “discount.” Those two practices have different influences on the consumer behaviour and the product perception. A discount tends to be less worth it than a free offer if an average customer would be asked. A survey of over 200 people was made to witness this statement.
This number of people were divided into two groups which were asked different questions via an A/B testing survey. Group A was asked about a free product, and group B was asked about a discount. Additionally, this study includes a field validation in the form of observation. Customers of a transregional drugstore were observed when buying a product. This drugstore where the validation was made offers a bi-weekly brochure with promoted products. Among them are discounts and free offers. The number of sales was compared and analysed to confirm the results of the survey.
This bachelor thesis is a comparative study between German and French consumers. Why do Germans spend less on food than French consumers? This question, which is the main one of this paper, leads to a subdivision in three other questions: How do the culture and some financial aspects of Germany and France impact their food buying decisions? German consumer vs. French consumer: how important are the characteristics of each consumer behaviour Profile? Are the other parameters being taken into account while buying food the reasons why French consumers spend more on food than Germans?
In order to answer the first two questions not only an analysis of both culture is required but also an examination of the consumption behaviours of each population. By means of qualitative and quantitative research methods the third question will be treated.
According to this comparative study, the results show that buying decision related to food is strongly influenced by some cultural aspects of each population. An answer of the main question of this study can also be derived after analysing the German consumer Profile.
The purpose of the thesis is to recognize the huge potential of the mobile sales channel through mobile websites and/or apps for the mobile shops in the sporting goods industries. Many retailers and fashion brands have already recognized the huge market of the M-Commerce. Surprisingly, sport brands till now have largely missed out on the M-commerce market. Only few of them have a mobile store and none of them provides a satisfying user experience. Therefore, those sport brands that already have a mobile shop need to rework their concept, and those that have no m-channel so far need to establish one. Given the exponential market growth, waiting is no longer an option. Sports brands that delay or fail to strengthen their mobile presence will fall behind competitors and miss a major opportunity to maximize their sales.
Mit dem Fitnessboom in Deutschland profitiert auch die Nahrungsergänzungsmittelindustrie. Auf Social-Media-Kanälen wie Instagram wird immer sichtbarer wie Influencer der Fitnessbranche mit Produktplatzierungen für Nahrungsergänzungsmittel werben. Diese Arbeit untersucht das neue Marketingphänomen des Influencer Marketings bezogen auf die Nahrungsergänzungsmittelindustrie der Fitnessbranche in Deutschland. Für die Untersuchung wurde eine persönliche Befragung von Fitnessstudiobesuchern durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse der Studie zeigen, dass das Influencer Marketing eine Rolle für den Erfolg von Herstellern der Nahrungsergänzungsmittelindustrie haben kann und diese neue Marketingdisziplin voller Potenzial steckt.
