: E-handeln i Sverige ökar kraftigt och har så gjort de senaste åren. Allt fler företag väljer att etablera sig online, vilket har lett till hård konkurrens på marknaden och svårigheter att differentiera sig. Att skapa ett värde för kunden i traditionell fysisk butik har länge varit självklart inom modebranschen, genom exempelvis god kundservice och lojalitetsprogram. Värde är något som företagen behöver erbjuda sina kunder även i onlinemiljö, men är här mycket mer komplext att skapa, vilket har lett till ett ökat intresse för motiv- och kundbeteende online bland modeföretagen. Förståelsen för dessa aspekter förväntas vara en möjlighet att möta konsumentens behov och uppfylla dennes mål, därigenom skapa tillfredställelse, vilket främjar återkommande besök och köp.

As today, companies are facing an increasing competition; markets are expanding while customers are getting more informed and fastidious toward companies and their products. For this reason it is crucial for enterprises to create loyal customers, or at best hyper loyal customers. With today's prerequisite this creation is difficult and it is therefore of highly interest to examine possible and alternative ways for enterprises to attain this type of hyper loyal customer. In this thesis we have examine hyper loyal football supporters with the aim to identify mechanisms that create and characterize this type of loyalty. By means of a survey and a focus group we were able to identify six loyalty mechanisms; the ability to influence, vicarious achievement, self-esteem, group affiliation, family and social relations.

abstract buzz marketing, the phenomena Have you ever thought about why the small French pastries called macarons suddenly became so extremely popular? Soon they were seen everywhere in the media, on every celebrity party and shortly after of course on every Swedish person?s cake dish. Could it be that a trendy it-girl happened to mention these lovely creations in her blog?What (or who) is it really that decides and controls what is popular and what is going to sell? If one individual can influence a whole group of followers it is definitely something marketers should take advantage of. One cannot any longer rely on traditional advertising, one needs to be more creative and rethink the possibilities to get through the media noise.

Vårt syfte med denna uppsats är att studera huruvida användandet av eco-marketing, med en miljöcertifiering, kan ha potential att stärka ett etablerat företags varumärkeslojalitet och på lång sikt dess varumärkeskapital.

Market capitalism sets the conditions for how the world is conceived, experienced and organized at various spatial scales (global to local). Currently, competitiveness, entrepreneurship and economic growth are key values that shape how the world is conceived, experienced and organized. Discourses of place marketing, place branding, and the construction of places as (economic) products, are part and parcel of the heightened commodification of space. Tourism has been a major factor in the commodification of place and space. More often than not, tourism has been seen as a possibility for peripheral places, in their struggle finding new ways towards development.

Syftet med denna uppsats var att skapa en djupare förståelse för hur unga tänker och handlar kring ?likes och om de gör det till en värdering där de kan mäta sig själv och andra både när det gäller online som offline. För att ta reda på detta undersökte vi om det sociala samspelet både online och offline påverkas av denna eventuella värdering. Forskning visar på att sociala medier har en påverkan på unga, dock finns det ingen forskning om just ?likesfenomenet? och hur det tar sig uttryck bland unga användare av sociala medier.
