The advertiser has a wide range of tools that he or she can use to make commercials follow the trends and changes in society.

Working with health-management has become something most organizations would describe as essential for being legitimate today. The aim of this thesis is to investigate how this subject is handled in an existing company and how this work is percieved by the employees in the organization. Due to the fact that limited research has been conducted on this issue, we see this thesis as a potential for increasing the understanding of how health management is articulated in practice. Our results show that health management in our studied organization is far reaching in comparison with most organizations, but has room for improvement according to the Integral Theory. The consequence of differences in perceptions between management and employees could result in that health management does not become an integral part of the company and its daily operations to the potential extent..

Denna rapport syftar till att reda ut begreppet mobil direktreklam samt att genom en marknadsundersökning ta reda på om det för Stadiums kunder finns något intresse att ta del av erbjudanden och information om olika händelser genom SMS-meddelanden. Det är tänkt att denna information kan variera beroende på vilket område medlemmen befinner sig i, det vill säga riktad lägesbunden direktreklam. För vår marknadsundersökning så utfördes både en kvantitativ och en kvalitativ undersökning, detta för att ge både bredd och djup till undersökningen. Tanken är att förbättra marknadsföringen för de kunder som är medlemmar i StadiumCard genom att de ska kunna erbjudas mobil direktreklam från det specifika område de befinner sig.En annan viktig hörnsten i detta examensarbete var skaffa sig kunskap om och redogöra för vad en IT-tjänst är samt att klarlägga vad begreppet mobilitet innebär.På den plattform som vi tilldelats att utveckla en SMS-tjänst på är det idag möjligt att positionera mobiltelefonanvändare inom ett visst område men det är komplicerat och kan bara utföras på sådant sätt att det inte är ekonomiskt försvarbart. Vi kommer därför endast utveckla en prototyp för en SMS-tjänst som skickar ut erbjudanden till alla de kunder, var de än befinner sig, som valt att delta i SMS-tjänsten.Stadium marknadsför sig idag främst genom adresserad reklam till sina medlemmar och direktreklam via post.
