Referral Program
THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE BUILDING A WORLDCLASS REFERRAL PROGRAM TECHNIQUES TO TRANSFORM HAPPY CUSTOMERS INTO REVENUEDRIVING BRAND AMBASSADORS In almost every industry, referrals are the gold standard of customer acquisition. Research has repeatedly shown that referred leads close faster, buy more, and stay longer — all with significantly less eort and at a much lower CPA than non-referred prospects. A University of Pennsylvania study¹ found that referred customers are more loyal and profitable — by a 16% margin — than their non-referred counterparts. Referred customers are 16% more profitable What’s not to like about that? Truth is, most of us inherently understand the value of referrals. When we make a big purchase, we seek out reviews or ping our networks for recommendations. In fact, a 2016 Nielsen poll conducted on behalf of Ambassador revealed that, across industries, 82% of Americans seek recommendations from friends and family when considering a purchase. When we see the same people talk about a purchase they made? Nielsen’s survey for Ambassador suggests two-thirds of us are at least a little more likely to make the same purchase. All of this has never been more true than in the age of the internet — a chaotic, noisy place where we’re constantly bombarded with blatant marketing messages, thinly-veiled “native advertising,” and unapologetic branded soapboxing. In this environment, a referral from a trusted source is a welcome respite from the subjectivity of typical brand communications. Building a World-Class Referral Program | 2 83% 29% of customers of those are willing to customers provide referrals actually do So, why isn’t there more talk about referral marketing? It’s simple: More often than not, people expect referrals to just happen organically. -

Bachelor Thesis
BACHELOR THESIS Mobile advertising and marketing A study of how location-based services is developing the mobile advertising eco-system and its business models Sixten Sidfeldt Bachelor of Science Industrial and Management Engineering Luleå University of Technology Department of Business Administration, Technology and Social Sciences ABSTRACT Purpose The goal of this research study was to examine the current state of mobile marketing and advertising. With focus on how location-based services currently transforms the mobile advertising ecosystem and its associated business models. Method The research study was conducted in association with different market leading industry actors, residing from diverse ends of the mobile advertising value-chain. This provided a broader spectrum for the study and the research questions sought answers to. The gathered empirical data was compared with existing theories providing possibility for further analysis and ultimately to draw conclusions for the research questions. Conclusion The research study concluded that location-based services will play a pivotal role in the coming years for mobile marketing and advertisement, both from the application perspective but also from mobile search integration. The market of location-based advertising is currently in an early stage, but shows high growth potential. The research study also concluded that location-based advertising follows the theories of regular mobile advertising, with the main exception that everything revolves around location. This provided difficulties for the parties involved, since location adds geodata that can that enable identification of specific end-users, as in the location gate scandal. To overcome this dilemma actors clearly- and openly reveal their strategy, on geodata harvesting. -

Internet Discussion Forums: a New Modality for Facilitating Peer Writing in Japanese University-Level EFL Classes
DOCUMENT RESUME ED 465 299 FL 027 351 AUTHOR Bay, Dale TITLE Internet Discussion Forums: A New Modality for Facilitating Peer Writing in Japanese University-Level EFL Classes. PUB DATE 1999-00-00 NOTE 26p. PUB TYPE Reports Descriptive (141) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Discussion Groups; *English (Second Language); Foreign Countries; Higher Education; *Internet; Second Language Learning; Student Motivation; Teaching Methods; World Wide Web; *Writing Skills IDENTIFIERS Japan ABSTRACT This paper describes unique opportunities offered by the Internet for Japanese college students learning to write in English. It focuses on tasks that students were assigned using discussion forums on the Internet. It begins by describing the Web site, which is <http://www.esljapan.com>, looking at software considerations, privacy issues, operating system compatibility, and the forum. It goes on to examine teaching methods (types of classes and method applied); procedures and problems; teaching points (headline reading, subject line reading, and peer writing); and the Intensive English Programme, which involved diary writing. Using Communicative English Language Test data as a measure of student ability, the study examined whether it was possible to predict that students with greater ability would post more frequently or post more lines to the Web site than students with lower ability. Results found no relationship between test scores and frequency of student postings. The paper recommends considering other factors that might be indicative of student motivation (e.g., their grades being based on how often they posted).

Blog Success Factors: Opportunities for Destination Marketing
Blog success factors: Opportunities for destination marketing Serena Volo School of Economics and Management Competence Centre in Tourism Management and Tourism Economics (TOMTE) Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy [email protected] Abstract This exploratory study discusses the opportunities for tourism destination marketing organizations to communicate successfully their attractions and offerings through user generated blog content. Key features of effective blogs are identified through netnography of three major blog platforms. Keywords: virtual communities; user-generated content; tourism destination marketing; storytelling; blog, netnography. 1 Introduction Researchers in the fields of consumer psychology, marketing and sociology have paid increasing attention to the value of narrative and storytelling in communicating people’s experiences (Schank & Abelson 1995; Adaval & Wyer, 1998; Escalas 2004). According to Woodside et al. “first-person stories are what people bring back from travels and destination visits” (2007, p. 163) and as Tussyadiah and Fesenmaier state, narration is “a device for interpreting human experience” (2008, p. 301). Narratives and stories about tourism experiences have always been popular. Blogs like traditional journaling are about expressing the inner experiences of travellers and sharing them with others (Conhaim, 2003; Pudliner, 2007; Tussyadiah and Fesenmaier, 2008; Volo & Osti, 2009; van Limburg, 2009). Sharda and Ponnada (2008, p.157) defined blogs as ‘virtual diaries created by individuals and stored on the Web for anyone to access’. Blogs allow travellers to disseminate and investigate ‘vast amounts of information quickly, seeking out the factual, the real and the truth’ (Pudliner, 2007, p. 47). Blogs combine texts, images, videos, audios, links and a collection of tools to share commentaries or news while travelling (Leu et al., 2005). -
