Att vara rolig på någon annans bekostnad: varumärkesparodiers effekter på det avsändande varumärket
A challenge faced by marketers is to make their products stand out in today's cluttered marketplace. Recently, a new approach to attract attention has been observed - brands communicating their products by making fun of other brands. This way of parodying a competitor, or even an unrelated brand, is a risky but potentially effective way to increase attention. Brand parodies walk a fine line between being humorous and clever, or coming off as offensive. Furthermore, parodying another trademark poses legal considerations.
Hello Skandia: Om kulturen på intranätet
Corporate spending on information technology is persistently increasing and a majority of companies are currently employing an intranet. Intranets have implications for internal communication but are also instruments for the dissemination of corporate culture. Existing research on intranets and corporate culture is limited to Swedish organizations within the industrial or IT-sector and to foreign companies. The purpose of this study is to understand how or if corporate culture can be embedded into an intranet. Specifically, this study addresses the research question: How is corporate culture communicated via an intranet in a Swedish service-sector company? We perform a qualitative case study and find that communication on intranets is still characterized by a traditional top down approach.

Corporate Branding vid förvärv - en fallstudie av Matex/Willys i Lund
Syftet med vår uppsats är att undersöka och analysera hur en koncern via Corporate branding integrerar och implementerar ett redan existerande koncept i ett förvärvat företag/kedja. Då Corporate branding handlar om att bygga upp, förstärka och förmedla ett affärskoncept till både interna och externa intressenter, har vi, för att ge en heltäckande bild av processen, valt att undersöka och analysera båda dessa aspekter. Vår problemformulering bestod bland annat av följande frågor; Vilka förändringar har uppstått vid förvärvet? Vad händer med ett företags organisationsstruktur, kultur och identitet inför och efter ett förvärv? Hur har det förvärvande företaget använt sig av Corporate branding för att implementera ett existerande affärskoncept i vårt fallföretag? Vilka reaktioner har uppstått internt och externt i samband med förvärvet? Hur skiljer sig de båda affärskoncepten från varandra? Vi har genomfört en kvalitativ fallstudie, samt en kvantitativ studie i form av enkätundersökning. Teorikapitlet är uppdelat i fyra delar och består av organisationsstrukturer, förvärvsteorier, intern samt extern Corporate branding.
Hur du får dina kunder att älska dig mer: En kvantitativ studie som visar hur event som marknadsföringsmetod och med ett varumärke som avsändare kan öka eventbesökarens upplevda varumärkeskärlek
Event marketing has during the last decade become a wide spread marketing method. This is because the marketing clutter has increased heavily during the past years and brands are looking for new ways to reach their target audience. The previously well accepted marketing measurement "satisfaction" has shown tendencies no longer to be sufficient for success in today's competitive marketplace. Therefore, the research has somewhat moved to the measurement "brand love" to explain differences in strategic consumer behavior. That is the background to why this report examines and answers the question if a brand through event marketing can enhance brand love.
Värdering av varumärkesstarka företag i samband med uppköp: - en empirisk studie av fem svenska företagsförvärv
The aim of this thesis is to investigate how a valuation of a company preceding an acquisition can be affected by the fact that a strong brand is attached to the target company. Techniques to value a company and theories of brands are well developed, but the link between them is partially missing even though the needs to value brands have increased. A case study of five Swedish acquisitions is conducted to identify possible complicating and simplifying factors and how these are handled in the context of a valuation of an acquired company with a strong brand. Important findings are that a decreased volatility of future earnings can lead to more accurate prognoses and valuations due to the existence of a strong brand. A strong brand can, on the other hand, also make the valuation of the target company more difficult due to the fact that it is a subjective asset which increases the overall risk of the company.
Från retailer till e-tailer: En studie av konsumentattityder
With the fast development of Internet and the e-commerce during the last decades, retailers are now introducing online stores. This has been adopted as a common strategy within the industry and the phenomenon seems likely to increase over time. Theory based on brand extension is used in this study to explain the effects on brand attitude and the link with willingness to pay when a traditional retailer introduces an online store. We execute an experimental study in order to investigate the effects where we use the offline- and online channel as well as two brands with different strengths as independent variables. Results show that brand attitude and its link to willingness to pay transfers to the online channel.
