Museum Marketing Museum Marketing A study on marketing the Finnish Aviation Museum through multimodal marketing and social media Viorica Bucur Di Wen 2011 Kerava Unit Laurea University of Applied Sciences Kerava Marketing the Finnish Aviation Museum through Multimodal Marketing and Social Media Viorica Bucur, Di Wen Degree Programme in Tourism Thesis November, 2011 Laurea University of Applied Sciences ABSTRACT Laurea Kerava Hospitality Management Degree Programme in Tourism Viorica Bucur, Di Wen Marketing the Finnish Aviation Museum through Multimodal Marketing and Social Media Year 2011 Pages 83 Marketing a museum through digital marketing and social media represents a topic with an overall significance due to the worldwide rising importance of social media and communities as marketing channels of XXI century. Consequently, cultural organizations are more and more committed to employ digital media opportunities, in order to enable greater public participation and an efficient and costless two-way communication with peers and current or possible customers. By using YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Flickr, which are globally recognized social networking services, museums have adopted marketing strategies based on a user centric approach, perceiving customers as a vital source of information and innovation. This study’s aim is to increase the awareness of Finnish Aviation Museum services and products with the use of multimodal marketing and social media tools. As an illustration, the study intends to highlight the case organization and its services and products for people and communities globally through the digital marketing techniques by designing and implementing a multimodal service for Finnish Aviation Museum: a viral video based on a user centric perspective encompassing three video clips. The video clips which are uploaded on Youtube and museum Facebook page, reflect the museum’s customer segments: aviation supporters, companies and educational organizations. Moreover, the study involves a second organization, The Chinese Aviation Museum, by realizing a comparison in terms of multimodal marketing between Finnish Aviation Museum and the similar institution from China. This Bachelor’s thesis includes a theory section and an empirical section that deals with the case organizations. The theory section encompasses issues such as museum marketing and its specific strategies, digital marketing and social media marketing. The empirical section involved data collection mixed-method, analyzing both qualitative and quantitative data. Furthermore it employs a qualitative research methodology consisting of interviews with the Marketing Managers of Finnish Aviation Museum and Chinese Aviation Museum and action research through which the researchers acted in the real-world situations. The interviews showed that the representatives of the Finnish Aviation Museum and Chinese Aviation Museum are aware of the importance of implementing the digital marketing techniques and promoting social media campaigns as useful means of providing an identity to their organizations. This idea was also confirmed by a significant amount of viewers who visualized the viral video realized by the study’s authors and provided pertinent comments regarding the Finnish Aviation Museum services and products. Therefore, it is important for the representatives of the case organization to re-evaluate their management decisions in accordance with the research outcomes and the feedback of their customers. Moreover, the present study would be a very useful tool for museums and galleries in designing and implementing their marketing strategies based on a digital and social media marketing perspective.

  • Of Jesus Christ
    God’s reckoning upon a wayward world For years, Israel has had to live with existential threats from Iran and its neighbors, yet hardly anyone has done anything about it. The world seems to take for granted that Israel must live with such threats without ever doing anything about it either. Imagine what would happen if Russia, or China, made such threats to America, or vice versa. A few years ago, when the media went into another one of those cyclical frenzies with the notion that Israel was about to attack Iran and destroy that nation’s nuclear facilities before it developed nuclear weapons, we said that according to biblical prophecies it is Iran who will attack Israel, not the other way around. Our prediction has proven true. In February 2012, Iran attacked a number of Israeli missions abroad – in Georgia, India, and Thailand, to mention those that made it into the media. From there, attacking Israel itself is only a short step away. Iran has shown that its threats to Israel are not mere talk; that it is prepared to act on them. This has changed the name of the game. Israel is now entitled to reply and take action before a greater disaster hits the nation. This is not going to make Israel many friends. On the contrary, biblical prophecies tell us that this tiny nation will face the wrath of the entire world. We have said much about those prophecies in the past, and may yet say more in the future, God willing, but for now we will only post this prophecy as a reminder.

  • “Hump” Airlift and Sino-Us Strategy in World War Ii
    KEEPING CHINA IN THE WAR: THE TRANS-HIMALAYAN “HUMP” AIRLIFT AND SINO-US STRATEGY IN WORLD WAR II DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By John D. Plating, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor John F. Guilmartin, Jr., Adviser Professor Allan R. Millett _____________________________ Professor Christopher A. Reed Adviser Graduate Program in History ABSTRACT The trans-Himalayan airlift of World War II, better known as the “Hump,” is recognized among specialists as the first sustained and most ambitious combat airlift operation in modern history. Cobbled together with only a handful of airplanes and aircrews in early 1942, the operation grew to become the ultimate expression of the US government’s commitment to China, in the end delivering nearly 740,000 tons of cargo. This was no small feat, either, as the US Army Air Forces’ aircraft flew in what is arguably the world’s worst weather system and over its most rugged terrain, all the while under the threat of enemy attack. The thesis of this dissertation is that the Hump airlift was initially started to serve as a display of American support for its Chinese ally who had been at war with Japan since 1937. However, by the start of 1944, with the airlift’s capability gaining momentum, American strategists set aside concerns for the ephemeral concept of Chinese national will and used the airlift as the primary means of supplying American forces in China in preparation for the US’s final assault on Japan.

In order to continue China’s labor force evolution and to supplement the strong manufacturing exports that have fueled its unprecedented growth, Xi directed his administration to implement policy changes that increase domestic consumption, stimulate domestic innovation, and develop a world-class services sector – all the while expanding China’s middle class and moving millions of rural Chinese citizens to urban centers. Market Challenges Return to top The depth and complexity of China’s proposed macroeconomic reforms bring with them significant challenges and pitfalls that will require skillful policy making and implementation.
