Dreams and Reality in the Great Outdoors
School of Business STOCKHOLM UNIVERSITY Master Thesis Spring Semester 2006 Date 2006-06-05 Dreams and Reality in the Great Outdoors A study of lifestyle marketing in the outdoor industry in Sweden Author: Enri Bimbashi Supervisor: Hans Rämö Assistant Professor PhD Summary Much of what is on sale on the shelves of outdoor shops today will mainly be used in the less extreme environment of our “urban jungle”. The red or navy anoraks of days past have been replaced by stylish, lightweight and high-tech pieces of clothing in exotic materials and colors that may never set foot on top of a mountain. Yet images of climbers, skiers or hikers still grace the pages of catalogs and advertisements aimed at consumers that are often perceived as “buying into the lifestyle”. The purpose of this study is to explore the implications of image- driven marketing strategies in the outdoor industry in Sweden, and the relevance of lifestyle in creating value in this industry. To deal with the complexity and ambiguity of this issue I have conducted a qualitative study based on interviews with seven respondents in managerial positions within the outdoor industry. I have also analyzed a number of advertisements and product catalogs from outdoor firms that illustrate, support and sometimes challenge the statements of the respondents. This material has been interpreted with a hermeneutic approach, based on a conceptual framework that includes semiotics, consumer behavior and lifestyle marketing theories. Based on the study’s findings, it can be concluded that marketing based on signification and imagery is steadily growing in relevance in the outdoor industry, recognizing the perceived value of outdoor products as signs or ways to create and communicate meaning among consumers. -
Mount Everest Foundation Expedition Reports 1995 SUMMARISED by BILL RUTHVEN
Mount Everest Foundation Expedition Reports 1995 SUMMARISED BY BILL RUTHVEN ach year, the Mount Everest Foundation supports a number of expedi Etions undertaking exploration in one form or another amongst the high mountains of the world. As well as 'Approval' - which in itself some times has the effect of opening other purses - most expeditions also receive a grant, usually ranging between £200 and £1500. Whilst this only repre sents a small proportion of the overall cost of an expedition, the moral support and the promise of a few hundred pounds during the preparatory stages of an expedition can sometimes make the difference between it going and not going. All that the MEF asks in return is a comprehensive report. Once received, copies are lodged with the Alpine Club Library, the Royal Geographical Society and the British Mountaineering Council where they are available for consultation by future expeditioners. The following notes are based on reports that have been received during 1995, and are divided into geogra phical areas. America - North 95/14 British Hub-Sew 1995 Geoff Hornby (with Dean Freeman, Stephen Jones and Tom Nonis). May-June 1995 On arrival in the Mount Logan area of Canada, this team was surprised to find very little snow, but later over four metres fell in a single night. Hub-Sew (3570m) looked unsafe throughout the expedition, so attention was turned to other peaks in the vicinity. A new route was climbed on Wood Peak (4840m), which they called the Sinclair Spur in memory of Mark Sinclair who was to have been a member of the team but was killed earlier in the year. -
