Definition of a Virtual Tribe
 Determined even less by geography, pedigree, race or
religion.
 Instead, the tribes are determined largely by education
and accomplishment
 Manifested by the things we consume.
 Sharing similar beliefs, values or customs setting them
apart from the dominant societal culture.
e.g. D’Alessandro (2001); Cova and Cova (2002); Kozinets & Handelman
(2004); Kozinets, Cova & Shankar (2007)

Conclusion
 the process of creating a tribal brand integrates
thousands of social interactions amongst customers
with various facets of their preferred brand
 the formation of a virtual tribe starts from an individual
 primarily based on affective rather than on rational or
commercial bases
 through maintenance and facilitation of the tribe,
 formation of an affective bond with a firm
 ultimately a bonded and loyal relationship with the brand.
Dr. Pasi Tuominen
10
Future research
 empirical models
 managerial implications in how marketers should
engage with virtual tribes
