Slutsatsen efter genomfört arbetet är att Örebro Bostäder AB bland annat har en önskvärd image av Vivalla som ett område med en unik och personlig omgivning med mindre individuella bostadsområden där det finns något för alla smaker. I Markbacken vill Öbo behålla och förstärka en image av variation, där allt från barnfamiljer till den som söker ett lite mer exklusivt boende skall lockas. Vidare har undersökningen visat att dessa önskvärda imager främst förmedlas via mun till mun-metoden, massmedia, samhälleliga åtgärder och events..

When a decision is to be made on what long term strategic forest management plan to use, consideration must often be taken to multiple objectives. Such decisions are very complex and a promising approach to handle them is by Multiple Criteria Decision Analyses (MCDA). The study is based on the problem that the MCDA that have been implemented into forest management planning have only had capacity to compare and evaluate a limited number of management plans; which means that there is a risk the most suitable plan is missed. The aim with this study was to test the applicability of combining the MCDA tools: the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for including consideration to multi-objectives into strategic forest management planning. The study was based on the process of creating and selecting a management plan, using Heureka PlanWise, suitable for all the major objectives found in the forest holdings of a municipality in northern Sweden.

The study addresses the field of design as a profession and examines the views on strategic management in a design project among nine selected graphic designers. The graphic designers who participate in the study are permanently employed at design companies in Stockholm. The study has a qualitative approach and the method is based on face-to-face interviews.

Social Marketing kampanjer syftar till att genomföra en beteendeförändring hos allmänheten genom användning av olika typer av informationskampanjer.Syftet med denna studie är att ta fram en modell med hjälp av en sammanställd litteraturgenomgång inom social marketing och genom denna sammanställning se vad som utmärker en framgångsrik och en mindre framgångsrik social marketing kampanj. Studien baseras på en kvalitativ undersökning. Det har genomförts en intervju med respektive representant för Rosa Bandet-kampanjen och Mustaschkampen samt en granskning av tidigare datainsamling. Kampanjerna är utformade efter liknande strategier och mål vilket gör att kampanjerna är lika när det kommer till utformningen. Trots att utformningen av de båda kampanjerna är lika har mottagningen av respektive kampanj sett väldigt olika ut.Utifrån studiens resultat kan man utläsa att Mustaschkampens utförande av kampanjen innehåller ett antal bristande val vilket har bidragit till att genomslagskraften sett olika ut för de båda kampanjerna.

This thesis examines effects that occur when consumers are placed in a negative category by the sender in an internet marketing context. The effects studied are attitude towards the ad, attitude towards the media, sense of being monitored and sense of being categorized. The authors argue that consumers will become increasingly aware of the fundamentals of internet marketing and how advertisements online are being directed towards them. Consumers will thus, to a larger extent than today, analyze advertisements and how they have been individually categorized by the sender. This will affect the way advertisements are perceived.
