  • Sexism in Advertising
    Sexism in Advertising A Qualitative Study of the Influence on Consumer Attitudes Towards Companies MASTER THESIS WITHIN: Business Administration NUMBER OF CREDITS: 30 PROGRAMME OF STUDY: Degree of Master of Science in Business and Economics AUTHOR: Hanna Andersson & Emilia Schytt JÖNKÖPING May 2017 Master Thesis in Business Administration Title: Sexism in Advertising: A Qualitative Study of the Influence on Consumer Attitudes Towards Companies Authors: Hanna Andersson and Emilia Schytt Tutor: Tomas Müllern Date: 2017-05-22 Key terms: Women in Advertising, Sexist Advertising, Congruity, Incongruity, Gender Differences, Consumer Attitudes. Background: Advertising is one of the most powerful influences on consumer attitudes, and for several decades, sexism in advertising and its affects on society has been a current topic. Even though the increased importance of equality in today’s society, sexism are still commonly depicted in advertising. How women are portrayed in advertising has been suggested to affect women’s perceived role in society and increased stereotypical roles defining how they should act and behave. Purpose: The study will seek insight in consumer attitudes formed by sexist advertising, and understanding of the difference between congruent sexist ads and incongruent sexist ads. The purpose of this study is to understand how sexist advertising influence consumer attitudes of a company. The ambition is to contribute to a greater understanding of sexist advertisements’ impact on companies. Method: An interpretive approach was adopted in order to gain deep insight and understanding in the subject. An exploratory study was conducted in the form of qualitative two-part interviews. Through a convenience sampling, 50 respondents were selected, divided into 25 females and 25 males in the ages of 20-35.

A Producer’s Guide to Conducting Local Market Research Introduction Many producers of agricultural commodities investigate the potential for develop- ing value-added products each year as a means of enhancing income from their farm- Introduction ing operations, capturing niche markets for locally grown food products or develop- ing new markets for products that spring from their own innovative ideas. These producers often lack both the technical skills necessary to conduct meaningful mar- ket research and the resources to hire professional consultants. University Extension programs frequently offer some level of assistance in these areas but often lack the time and industry specific knowledge to guide producers through in-depth studies tailored to individual products or markets. Value-added outreach and educational pro- grams are typically designed to present gen- eral information to groups of producers with diverse product interests, and as such, only discuss market research in very general terms, and then only as part of a broader curriculum.

  • Sales Promotion in Conjoint Analysis
    SALES PROMOTION IN CONJOINT ANALYSIS Eline van der Gaast, SKIM Marco Hoogerbrugge, SKIM RotterdamRotterdam | Geneva | Geneva | London | London | New | New York York 1 / 13 www.skiwww.skimgroup.mgroup.comcom SUMMARY This paper is about sales promotion as an attribute in conjoint studies. Promotions may involve a direct financial gain, and/or indirect benefits. A promotion generates extra attention for the product and the feeling of saving money. Typically, if one does a promotion that has the same financial savings to respondents as lowering the normal price, the effect of the promotion is much higher than simply reducing the price, due to the ‘attention’ effect. It is important to be aware that promotions provide a short-term benefit followed by a post-promotion dip. Even though promotions are difficult to study, conjoint analysis is effective in helping understand which promotion is more effective and which consumers you will attract with the promotion. Future research should aim to incorporate time elements into conjoint studies, to simulate more accurately purchase cycles and long-term effects of promotions. INTRODUCTION In times of economic crisis market research is a field that is actually blooming (Andrews, 2008). Especially during times of crisis companies have to make deliberate decisions on how to invest their marketing budget to optimize profits. In the fast moving consumer goods industry, competition is high and promotions are often used as a tool to increase sales. A promotional scheme that will provide the most optimal outcome will give a manufacturer a competitive advantage. Next to boosting short-term sales there are several other motives for using promotions in the consumer goods industry; eliciting trial among non-users or for new product introductions; dealing in markets with increased price sensitivity; and as an alternative for advertising.

    Mobilise! Incorporating Mobile Phones in Social and Policy-oriented Surveys ALEC M GALLUP FUTURE OF 1SURVEY RESEARCH FORUM 14 October, 2009 Hôtel Solvay 224 Avenue Louise 1050 Brussels % Dear Attendee, Mobile phones have had a remarkable impact on the world in a relatively short period of time. In all surveys, the overriding consideration is to reach all members of the public, young or old, male or female, employed or self- employed. In the nineties, fixed-line telephone coverage reached almost saturation point, but times are changing. In Europe, countries such as Finland and the Czech Republic now have a majority of citizens who are "mobile-only". Furthermore, as mobile phone ownership and usage is currently higher among certain groups, such as younger members of the population, the potential arises for mobile-phone non- coverage bias. This was a topic widely debated during the 2004 US Presidential election. Further discussion and research on the topic is vital. That's why Gallup has brought together the world's leading experts to thrash out issues that will undoubtedly impact the future of social research. Earlier this year, we were saddened by the death of Alec Gallup, a consummate polling professional who served the company for 60 years. If he was still with us, he would be watching the increase of the mobile-phone population with interest. Alec Gallup understood polling from A to Z and he knew that that the future of survey research depended on methodologies that would continue to give an equal opportunity of being polled … to all members of the public Bi-annual series of seminars: Future of Surveys We would therefore like to welcome you to "The 1st Alec Gallup Future of Survey Research Forum: Incorporating Mobile Phones in Social and Policy-oriented Surveys.

Enact government funding programmes to specifically support collaboration on Covid-19 thematic research for the general interest; 3. Issue immediately calls for tender to conduct comprehensive and wide-ranging social research by researchers that abide to the principles of accepted codes of conduct governing market, opinion, and social research; 4. Support our measures to collate and disseminate research expertise for the general public interest; 5. Establish multi-disciplinary research expert groups composed of academics, private experts and government representatives to provide up-to-date research expertise on the impact of the crisis and to support communication efforts both during and after the crisis has passed; 6. Work with these expert groups to evaluate and use the insights to inform government strategies moving forward. The research community stands ready to act in support of the general public interest.
