Marketing-oriented ethnography was conducted for thirty days for the research needs of this study. We collected findings of in-depth interviews with various stakeholders of two organizations. The data analysis resulted in a unified framework of different activities performed by suppliers, organizations, and consumers at various product storytelling stages. We find that suppliers focused on sensory, affected, and relational dimensions; the organization emphasized cognitive, relational, and behavioral dimensions, and consumers aimed at sensory, behavioral, cognitive, relational, and affective dimensions. The framework states that different brand experience dimensions can be understood by multiple stakeholders while co-creating the content.","PeriodicalId":16879,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Promotion Management","volume":"29 1","pages":"1 - 26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45487537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To comprehend this issue, we propose a framework that combines the extended Ducoffe’s web advertising value model and the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) model. We conceptualize S - stimuli - as perceived advertising value of sponsored Instagram ads; O - organism - as consumer ad-related involvements, comprising cognitive, affective, and flow experiences; and R - response state - as purchase intention. Based on an online survey, data was collected from 337 Malaysian Instagram users. The findings indicate that sponsored Instagram ad-related entertainment, informativeness, credibility, incentives, and celebrity endorsement, are conducive to raising the effectiveness of ad-stimuli, which in turn, enhance consumers’ cognitive and affective ad involvement and flow, to influence purchase behavior. The research offers empirical evidence to support the S-O-R framework and helps to expand the scope of sponsored advertising value research and its effect on consumers’ purchase intention. Furthermore, it benefits marketers and advertisers in promoting effective advertising campaigns using sponsored Instagram advertising. It also provides a platform where marketers can design ads that can help them to reach their marketing goals.","PeriodicalId":16879,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Promotion Management","volume":"29 1","pages":"77 - 105"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46278819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using the framework of the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) that distinguishes between peripheral and central ad cues, our findings highlight the dominance of peripheral cues over central cues. Viral ads included more emotional than rational appeals and integrated music and sound effects, while the use of substantial arguments was kept to a minimum. The dominance of peripheral cues was also evident across product categories; however, they mainly characterized ads for technology products. Our findings provide more than a mere description of the characteristics of viral ads, but detail the dominant creative elements that viral ads feature, which might infer the effectiveness of specific message elements in driving ad sharing. The theoretical and managerial implications of this study are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":16879,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Promotion Management","volume":"29 1","pages":"125 - 154"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46087890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To fill this literature gap this study adopts a multi-dimensional approach to evaluate the factors that affect the endorsement effectiveness. The Partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) applied on data collected from 409 respondents revealed that social influence and endorser identification substantially and positively affects the individual’s purchase intentions, attitude, celebrity attachment, and perceived celebrity credibility. The theoretical framework used in this study empirically validates the role of social influence in arbitrating the efficacy of celebrity endorsement and purchase intention for the first time to the researcher’s best knowledge.

The effects of perceived congruence, perceived information relevance, cumulative satisfaction, and perceived risk on purchase intention were also examined. The participants with hedonic (vs. utilitarian) shopping orientation perceived higher congruence when viewing an emotional (vs. rational) review than a rational (vs. emotional) review. Perceived information relevance mediated the effects of perceived congruence on purchase intention. Cumulative satisfaction positively affected purchase intention, while the effects of perceived risk were found to be insignificant. The findings contribute to the online review literature by providing evidence of congruence effects between consumers’ internal factors and review characteristics. The finding that perceived information relevance serves as an underlying mechanism of the congruence effects expands the existing knowledge of electronic word-of-mouth. Practitioners are recommended to find ways to increase perceived information relevance by tailoring to consumers’ shopping orientation and utilizing the message appeal of online reviews with website designs and algorithms.","PeriodicalId":16879,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Promotion Management","volume":"28 1","pages":"1165 - 1189"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45960546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Applying a dual process theory, we distinguish between Reflective and Impulsive processing pathways. Through a survey study on 470 consumers, we tested four sales promotions characterized by different rewards (monetary versus nonmonetary) and gratification typologies (immediate-reward versus delayed-reward). The study further analyses the effects of promotion-induced affect, in terms of arousal and valence, as well as the influence of individual impulse buying tendency and sales proneness. Results show that impulsive responses are influenced by promotion-induced affect and individual differences, while reflective responses differ depending on the reward typology. The results contribute to the extant literature by discriminating the effects of sales promotions on the Reflective and Impulsive systems. Implications for retailers and promotion managers concerning the formulation of effective promotion strategies are discussed.","PeriodicalId":16879,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Promotion Management","volume":"28 1","pages":"1212 - 1234"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43370374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there has been rather little empirical evidence pertaining to the relationship between framing typologies and subsequent user engagement, specifically in regards to how frames impact how users engage with online content. The goal of the present study seeks to expand upon the existing literature, with a specific focus on some of the most prolific typologies used within the communication discipline. In an analysis of Facebook content produced by 239 Down syndrome nonprofits over the course of one year, we offer several findings regarding the relationship between the frames used within Facebook content and the subsequent user engagement that they received. Most notably, results indicate that Facebook posts that utilized elements of the human-interest frame were associated with higher user engagement. Further, despite existing literature indicating the contrary, there does not appear to be a statistically significant difference in user engagement between posts that utilized episodic as opposed to thematic framing. The results presented here offer recommendations for practitioners, marketing professionals, as well as individuals looking to grow their social media presence.","PeriodicalId":16879,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Promotion Management","volume":"29 1","pages":"1229 - 1249"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45001304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
