  • Where Is My Mind? Brand Positioning & the City of Stockholm
    Where is my mind? Brand positioning & the City of Stockholm as perceived by international visitors. Maria Isabel Bengtsson Gonzáles de Olarte & Samuel John Paul Jones The School of Business, Society and Engineering Course: Master Thesis in Business Administration Tutor: Konstantin Lampou Course code: EFO704 Examiner: Eva Maaninen Olsson 15 hp Date: 2013-06-07 Abstract This paper discusses brand positioning as a core concept in customers’ expectations and perceptions by analysing the role of service quality. The limited research in this field is unwarranted considering the importance of the concept. The aim of this paper is to describe the brand positioning of the City of Stockholm as a tourist destination, whilst exploring tourists’ expectations and perceptions about service quality in the city. The data collected is based on the qualitative semi-structured interviews conducted with 30 international informants. The resulting data shows that there is a definitive gap between expectations and perceptions, which means that visitors are not wholly satisfied with the service quality experienced in Stockholm. Suggestions for improvements are offered. Keywords: Brand positioning, brand identity, brand image, service quality SERVQUAL, tourist expectations, tourist perceptions, customer satisfaction, Stockholm. Acknowledgements Firstly, we would like to say a special thank you to our supervisor Konstantin Lampou. We are very grateful for his guidance and help identifying weaknesses in our thesis. We would also like to thank the seminar opponents to this paper who provided us with excellent feedback about improvements to this dissertation. We are also thankful to all the informants who gave us their time and contributed data full of feelings and desires.

Cultural heritage preservation includes a multifaceted field including museology, archaeology, and social studies, amongst others. The research for this thesis is based in the segment of objects conservation traditionally called ethnographic conservation . Tangible objects are one of the significant evidences of past times and events, around which institutions and research has evolved. These objects have been de-contextualised and resides in collections with very little of their intangible values intact.
