Today most studies regarding marketing are made on traditional marketing channels, answering questions like which jingle is best or which TV-channel a company should focus their marketing budget on. There is also the science regarding the best way of marketing on Social Networking sites or how to get as many 'likes' as possible, and so forth. However research has also been made in the field of in-store marketing and how a retailers or brand owners can affect customers in "the moment of truth". Until now most of these studies discuss how to get the attention of the customer in the store since both time as well as level of commitment in general is scarce when a customer is in a grocery store doing the necessary weekly- or complementary-shopping.

One-to-one marketing är en extrem variant av relationsmarknadsföring. Begreppet myntades i början av 1990-talet och ligger till grund för en ny syn på marknadsföring. Många företag har försökt att använda sig av teorierna kring begreppet, men få har hittills lyckats fullt ut. One-to-one marketing främjas av att kunden inte behöva återupprepa sig varje gång man köper företagets produkt eller tjänst. Detta medför att kunden kan tjäna på att vara i en relation med ett företag som använder sig av one-to-one marketing. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om vårt valda företag planerar att använda sig av one-to-one marketing i sin marknadsföring och om deras uppfattning av begreppet stämmer överens med vad teorierna säger.
