Author: Bastian Bakeberg
Publisher: Anchor Academic Publishing
ISBN: 3954894122
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 85
Book Description
This study examines how online brand communities create value through social practices. Building on the work of Schau et al. (2009) this study utilizes a netnographic approach and qualitatively investigates how Facebook brand Fan Pages are employed as brand community resources, to alleviate ties between members in the community and to establish consumer-brand-relationships. Following four value creating practices are discovered: ‘exchanging brand narratives’, ‘celebrating brand love’, ‘support and information resource’, and ‘pressure valve for discontent’. It is found that interaction among community members and engagement with the brand itself develop practices creating value on Fan Pages. Postmodern consumers want to be able to influence brands and also long for connections with other consumers; besides relationships are shaped by dialogue and interaction. Facebook Fan Pages offer means to achieve this and allow brands to become part of consumers ́ lives. This study extends research on brand communities and the findings enhance understanding why/how consumers engage online with brands and other members.
