This book examines issues and implications of digital and social media marketing for emerging markets. These markets necessitate substantial adaptations of developed theories and approaches employed in the Western world. The book investigates problems specific to emerging markets, while identifying new theoretical constructs and practical applications of digital marketing. It addresses topics such as electronic word of mouth (eWOM), demographic differences in digital marketing, mobile marketing, search engine advertising, among others. A radical increase in both temporal and geographical reach is empowering consumers to exert influence on brands, products, and services. Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and digital media are having a significant impact on the way people communicate and fulfil their socio-economic, emotional and material needs. These technologies are also being harnessed by businesses for various purposes including distribution and selling of goods, retailing of consumer services, customer relationship management, and influencing consumer behaviour by employing digital marketing practices. This book considers this, as it examines the practice and research related to digital and social media marketing.

Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 70%, Queen Mary University of London (Business School), course: Understanding Consumer Behaviour, language: English, abstract: “Rollout of HD VOD and Internet movies on day-and-date of DVD release is a growth opportunity not only because consumers value them and will pay more, but also because this expanded availability will increase overall movie viewership. The Oliver Wyman study found that that these enhanced offers would lead U.S. consumers to watch and pay for an average of three more movies per year than they do today, creating a net annual increase in domestic consumer movie spending of more than $5 billion, from the current base of $50 billion.” As this study of the management consultancy Oliver Wyman reveals, online video services such as VOD and PPV gain an increasing importance nowadays. These trends towards online video services (OVS) invite to a closer examination of the consumer behaviour regarding these services. This essay focuses on consumer behaviour of the consumption of OVS, such as iTunes Movies and CinemaNow. In particular the aspect of perceived risk will be examined, because these products can only be consumed online, an environment where the perceived risk is still high and a possible barrier for the usage of OVS.
