Following the success of the Internet book store Amazon.com and their Kindle reading device in the United States and other mar- kets, Finnish book stores have started offering electronic books and electronic reading devic- es to Finnish consumers. So far they have been ineffective in reaching the customers in the same way as Amazon.com and other major retailers abroad, and sales have been marginal. This is due to factors related to pricing, copy protection, availability, technology and sales methods. The purpose of this thesis is to achieve a clear understanding of the level of awareness in Finland concerning electronic books and to investigate how the concept is perceived. While the main focus is on the actual concept of electronic books, it is also essential to determine the extent to which Finns have tried the devices, the kinds of experiences they have had and how the devices could be developed further. The overall objective was to discover how to best serve the needs of the customers of electronic books. This thesis approaches the topic using classic theories, such as Kotler’s marketing mix, prod- uct life cycle theory, and Porter’s theories of five forces and the diamond of national advan- tage that shapes the industry. More case-specific, contemporary theories include Kim and Mauborgne’s blue ocean strategy, and Christensen’s theory of disruptive innovation. Previous studies on electronic books by Catherine Marshall and research companies are used to de- scribe the specifics of the electronic book industry. A quantitative survey was conducted in the Sello library in Espoo in order to obtain informa- tion from potential customers in the Helsinki metropolitan area. The director, Sakari Laiho, and the manager of the eReading projects, Kristiina Markkula, of the Finnish Book Publishers Association, were also interviewed for the thesis in order to get expert information. The results of the empirical study indicate that the electronic book industry has not yet found much success in Finland, as the majority of participants surveyed in the study were not fully aware of the concept. According to the results, the greatest potential market for electronic books is to be found within the younger population and among students. Different groups have different expectations for the industry, but overall the service should be improved in order to attract more customers. Key words: electronic books, reading devices, quantitative research, expert interview Laurea University of Applied Sciences Tiivistelmä Laurea Leppävaara Bachelor’s Degree Programme in Business Management Ilkka Lumme, Pasi Parviainen A study on electronic book marketing in Finland Year 2011 Pages 119 Viime vuosien aikana on kehitetty uusia markkinointitapoja kaupallisten sähköisten kirjojen ja niiden lukemiseen tarkoitettujen laitteiden myyntiin. Yhdysvaltalaisen Internet-kirjakaupan Amazonin ja sen Kindle-lukulaitteen menestyksen jäljillä suomalaiset kirjakaupat ovat nyt lisänneet valikoimiinsa sähköiset kirjat ja lukulaitteet. Toistaiseksi suomalaiset kuluttajat eivät kuitenkaan ole omaksuneet uutta formaattia. Syitä löytyy muun muassa hinnoittelusta, kopiointisuojauksista, tarjonnasta, teknologiasta ja myyntimenetelmistä. Tämä opinnäytetyö pyrkii selvittämään kuinka tietoisia suomalaiset ovat sähköisistä kirjoista, millaisia mielikuvia heillä on niistä ja mikä saisi heidät ottamaan vastaan uuden teknologian. Vaikka pääpaino on varsinaisesti sähköisten kirjojen konseptissa, on myös tärkeää selvittää ovatko suomalaiset käyttäneet sähköisiä lukulaitteita, millaisia kokemuksia heillä on niistä ja miten niitä voisi kehittää. Tavoitteena oli löytää kehitysehdotuksia ja ratkaisuja siihen, miten sähköisiä kirjoja tulisi markkinoida Suomessa. Tämä opinnäytetyö lähestyy aihetta klassisten teorioiden, kuten Kotlerin markkinointimix- mallin, tuotteen elinkaaren mallin, sekä Porterin viiden voiman ja kansallisen kilpailukyvyn mallien kautta. Modernimmat, tapauskohtaisemmat teoriat, kuten Kimin ja Mauborgnen sinisen meren strategia, ja Christensenin disruptiivisen innovaatio, havainnollistavat tarkemmin uusia mahdollisuuksia muuttuvassa ympäristössä. Marshallin sekä tutkimusyritysten tuottamia aikaisempi tutkimuksia hyödynnettään myös opinnäytetyössä. Tutkimusta varten teetettiin kvantitatiivinen kysely Leppävaaran kirjaston kävijöille. Lisäksi tutkimusta varten haastateltiin Suomen kustannusyhdistyksen johtajaa Sakari Laihoa sekä yhdistyksen eReading-projekteista vastaavaa Kristiina Markkulaa. Empiirisen tutkimuksen tulokset osoittavat että sähköiset kirjat eivät ole vielä kovin menestyneitä Suomessa. Enemmistä kyselyyn vastaajista ei ollut täysin tietoisia konseptista. Kyselyn tulosten perusteella eniten potentiaalia sähköisten kirjojen kasvuun on nuorten ja opiskelijoiden ryhmissä. Eri ryhmillä on erilaisia odotuksia sähköisille kirjoille, mutta kokonaisuudessaan palvelusta täytyy tulla parempi suuremmille ryhmille.

    1 Til bokas pris Utredning av litteraturpolitiske virkemidler i Europa Helge Rønning, Tore Slaatta, Olav Torvund, Håkon Larsen, Terje Colbjørnsen Overlevert til Kulturdepartementet og Kunnskapsdepartementet 15. februar 2012. 2 Utredningsmandat Norsk bokbransje gjennomgår endringer også mht. rammebetingelser. Bok- og forlagsbransje i EU-land virker innenfor ulike økonomiske og regulatoriske virkemidler og rammebetingelser. Som tillegg til en hovedundersøkelse om virkemidler for å fremme norsk skjønn- og faglitteratur skal det gjennomføres en egen kartlegging av rammebetingelser for bokbransjen i EU. Utredningen skal: a) kartlegge virkemidler i sentrale EU-land, for eksempel Tyskland, Frankrike, Storbritannia, Nederland, Spania, Sverige og Danmark. Også Sveits bør inngå i kartleggingen. b) gi en beskrivelse av disse virkemidlene mht. innhold, virkeområde, form etc. c) vurdere om elementer ved de kartlagte virkemidlene i EU-land kan ha overføringsverdi til norske forhold d) spesielt se på virkemidler som har som mål å fremme bredde i skjønnlitteratur, og et litteraturtilbud på eget lands språk – også i faglitteraturen. e) KD er ansvarlig for gjennomføringen av de delene av utredningen som omhandler fagbøker. KUD er ansvarlig for gjennomføringen av de delene som omhandler skjønnlitteratur. De to delene håndteres som to separate oppdrag, men koordineres med hensyn til utforming og gjennomføring. Utredningen skal gjennomføres i samsvar med utredningsinstruksen og innen 15. februar 2012. 3 Overordnet sammendrag 1. Denne studien omfatter bokbransjen i 15 europeiske land. 9 av disse har boklover med fastprisbestemmelser og 6 har friprissystemer. Generelt er det kontinentale Europa regulert med boklover. Friprislandene er Sverige og Finland, som har hatt fripris fra henholdsvis 1970 og 1971, Belgia fra 1981, Storbritannia fra 1995 og Danmark siden 2011.

  • Media Mergers 2003
    Media Mergers 2003 The OECD Competition Committee debated media mergers in May 2003. This document includes an executive summary and the documents from the meeting: an analytical note by Mr. Gary Hewitt for the OECD, written submissions from Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, the European Commission, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Mexico, Spain, Chinese Taipei, the United Kingdom, the United States, as well as an aide-memoire of the discussion. Reviewing media mergers may be more complicated than reviewing other mergers because of the huge variety of possible media content and the two-sided market aspect of many media, i.e. those earning advertising revenue. A wide variety of content means that market definition is rendered more complex. The two-sided market characteristic has important and sometimes far from obvious impacts on how mergers affect economic efficiency, media plurality and content diversity. Vertical integration can produce real efficiencies in media markets notably when it eliminates a double-marginalisation problem but it can sometimes create competition problems as far as access to content and final delivery to the consumer are concerned. Adequate trade off between economic welfare and non-economic effects on social welfare, e.g. on pluralism, which are two separate goals, are difficult to make in reviewing media mergers. Although competition authorities tend to protect pluralism, most often they are reluctant to include pluralism considerations in merger reviews as they want to preserve
