How Advertisement Effects The Consumer Behaviour In the Fast Food Industry During the Corona Pandemic In India


Book Description

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Sociology - Consumption and Advertising, grade: 8.0, , course: Bachelors of Business Administration, language: English, abstract: This paper aims at providing information about understanding how advertisement effects the fast food industry during COVID-19 in India. One of the world's fastest growing food types is victuals (fast foods). People buy fast food because it's easy to prepare, cheap and heavily promoted. But due to COVID-19 situations, the scenario changed. With the presence of lockdown in all countries because of the spread of the COVID-19 virus, the growth of the fast food industry declines. Restaurants in India are state subjects and during this time, they were having zero income but with a fixed cost. The fear of social proximity will persist post lockdown and initially affects business negatively. In the recent times, the fast food industry has shifted their normal advertisements to special COVID-related advertisements that may or may not drive the emotion of buying the fast food by any means.




Global Perspectives on Social Media Usage Within Governments


Book Description

Social media applications have emerged in the last 20 years to meet the different needs of individuals, and private sector and public organizations have not been indifferent to these technologies. Social media tools help public institutions and organizations communicate directly with citizens as well as enable two-way communication and enable citizens to participate in all stages from agenda setting to evaluation of policy processes. Central and local governments, which use innovative methods to involve citizens in this process, attach significance to the development of e-participation tools. Ensuring the participation of citizens in policy processes not only determines the wishes and priorities of citizens but also uses scarce resources effectively and efficiently. Global Perspectives on Social Media Usage Within Governments reveals the best practices of various countries regarding the use of social media by central and local governments according to public administration models. The book presents various case studies on the impact of public administration models on social media use in order to contribute to public administration and social media use. Covering topics such as climate action, knowledge behaviors, and citizen participation, this premier reference source is an essential resource for government officials, public administrators, public policy scholars, social media experts, public affairs scholars, students and educators of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.

The Path to Net Zero for the Fashion Industry


Book Description

This book uses a quantitative science-based approach to explain where the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions emitted by the fashion industry are generated and it explores what strategies can be deployed to achieve Net Zero by 2050. With GHG emissions currently predicted to triple by the middle of the century, the fashion industry is far off course to reach Net Zero, as set out in the Paris Agreement. With misinformation and greenwashing representing an ever-growing barrier to potential solutions, the book aims to demystify the source of GHG emissions from the industry, breaking down in detail their origin, while identifying the steps that can be taken when designing and sourcing new products. Detailing the market drivers and trends in fashion consumption, it argues that change should be guided by science-based quantitative principles. Accessibly written with key insights at the end of each chapter, this book will enable the reader to understand the tactics to tackle decarbonisation, and ultimately outline five main strategies that can be deployed by the fashion and textile industries to align with the Paris Agreement. This book serves as a practical guide for designers, buyers and the fashion industry in general to develop and understand approaches and strategies to reduce energy consumption and the resulting GHG emissions to reach Net Zero.







Leveraged Marketing Communications


Book Description

This comprehensive book features recent works on Leveraged Marketing Communications (LMC)--an intentional pairing of a brand to benefit from the associations the target audience has with the object. LMC conceptually binds a wide range of marketing communication strategies previously studied in isolation: celebrity endorsements, sponsorship, product placements, cause-related marketing, and cobranding. LMC strategies assume that an entity (e.g., Michael Jordan) can be paired with a brand (e.g., Nike) to evoke associations that ultimately enhance brand awareness and evaluations. The collection of chapters in this book examines the association between brands and entities, ideas, and contexts and combines theory and practice to offer new perspectives to help academics, practitioners, and policymakers better understand and apply LMC research. The chapters collectively provide a theoretical framework for building brand equity via linking brands to people, places, and things; examine how marketers can best leverage brand alliances; explore ways to maximize the effectiveness of sponsorship, product placement, corporate social responsibility (CSR), and cause-related marketing; and summarize our knowledge of the various forms of LMC. The chapters in this book were originally published in the International Journal of Advertising.
