Relationsmarknadsföring har idag blivit en central del i många företags marknadsföring. Kort sammanfattat är relationsmarknadsföring ett marknadsföringssätt som fokuserar på att etablera och utveckla relationen till kunden. Eftersom en konsument idag, bland annat med hjälp av Internet, har tillgång till väldigt mycket information ökar medvetenheten och ger kunden en större möjlighet att välja var och av vem hon ska handla. De konventionella marknadsföringsmetoderna blir alltmer ineffektiva och företagen lägger istället mer energi på att skapa en relation till kunden som individ. Inom modebranschens detaljhandel syns detta tillvägagångssätt i form av kundklubbar, nyhetsutskick och den personliga interaktionen i butikerna.

Abstract. The trade in prostitution/sexual services is regarded as a major social problem in Sweden. The prostitutes are seen as a group of passive, neglected and exploited victims, subject to repeated and forced outrage. However, there exists a network of sexworkers who claim their free will in selling sex as a trademark. They describe themselves as active subjects with a business of selling sex out of free will.

Ephemerality is one of the most essential characteristics of fashion, since fashion by definition is existing in the present, in the fleeing moment. Also, fashion is closely related to art and there is currently no clear theoretical distinction made regarding the boundary between these two domains. In this essay I have explored the concept of transiency and the relationship between fashion and art in relation to fashion in general and to the collection Haute Papier, made by the fashion designer Bea Szenfeld, in specific. The Haute Papier collection is constructed almost entirely out of simple white paper sheets and of this reason it can be regarded as ephemeral. The material also positions the garments in a void between fashion and art, simultaneously existing in both domains and in none of them.

Sedan bo?rjan pa? 90-talet och informationsteknikens inta?gande kan vi nu snabbare a?n na?gonsin ha?mta information fra?n va?rldens alla ho?rn. Detta go?r att spelplanen fo?r fo?retag har fo?ra?ndrats radikalt och fo?retag ma?ste anpassa sig till kunden pa? ett helt annat sa?tt a?n tidigare. Denna utveckling har tvingat fo?retag att fo?rsta? vikten av att se kundens relation till fo?retaget som en va?rdeskapande process som syftar till att utveckla la?ngvariga relationer parterna emellan.Detta kombinerat med utvecklingen av informationstekniken (IT) och hanteringen av datalagring under 1990-talet har tillsammans skapat begreppet Customer Relationship Management, fo?rkortat CRM.

I modern tid är den så kallade transaktionsmarknadsföringen det paradigm som till största del präglat marknadsföringen. Utvecklingen och globaliseringen har bidragit till att marknaden blivit mer transparant, kunderna ställer högre krav och det räcker inte längre med att endast erbjuda en produkt/tjänst. Företagen måste för att kunna konkurrera, bygga relationer och erbjuda bästa möjliga service, sätta kunden i fokus. Ett sätt för att lyckas är enligt forskningen att implementera Customer Relationship Management (CRM) i organisationen, något som visat sig vara problematiskt och svårt. Ett av problemen är att CRM ofta likställs med teknologi och därför utelämnas flera viktiga delar i implementeringsprocessen.
