Abstract: The study investigated the relationship between social media usage and impulse buying tendencies with a
mediating effect of brand community. With increased competition among traders, it is becoming costly to create a
market niche as well as influence buying patterns among consumers. Using structural equation modeling,
responses from a sample of 312 clients of Airtel telecommunication company Uganda under a Whatsaap
community group known as team Airtel where analyzed. The study findings revealed that social media interactions
influence people to join brand communities. The findings also discovered that brand community positively
influences impulse buying tendencies among consumers. Additionally study findings have shown that brand
community plays a positive mediating role on the causal relationship between social media and impulse buying
tendencies among consumers. However findings from the study indicate that there is no relationship between social
media and impulse buying. Social media influences impulse buying tendencies through brand communities.

Social media permeates nearly each facet of the individual’s and the whole society today. The
development in the social media is driven by the fact that it is the primary platform of choice
for sharing user-generated content - information, news, photos and videos. The unique
proliferation of social media communication platforms has annoyed the interest of
professional practice and academia. Several brand communities have been formed with the
help of social networking sites. The electronic social media such as Twitter, Facebook,
MySpace, etc. have came forward as databanks for market researchers. Going by the name of
social media monitoring (SMM), this approach basically involves automated content study to
understand perceptions and attitudes of customers. This paper argues for a place for
qualitative research methods in the study of social media by presenting the benefits of
adopting them as opposed to the rather limiting methodology of SMM. By systematically
comparing various research approaches, as well as entrenched methods and current designs,
this paper delineates three major differences between qualitative research and SMM which in
result gives the former greater soundness and genuineness than SMM. The paper concludes
that the non-mediated, interactive discourse or exchange between consumers and
researchers; the possibility of tracking latent unsaid stories of consumer needs and desires
that motivate their brand behaviour and preference and the rich, personal nature of
interviews that enable shared perceptions are the three compelling benefits of qualitative
research.

VENUE: Seattle Ad Club November 2008 luncheon
SYNOPSIS: Last year we gave an intro into social tools. This year we're showing how brand communications can use these tools to be part of the consumers' solution rather than an obstacle in their paths.
SPEAKER NOTES:
(For the sake of this presentation, I will use "consumers" as a generic term that would include B2B "customers.")
SLIDE 1:
Last year, Publicis' Laura Porto Stockwell and I presented to you. Those of you who attended remember that we discussed demographics, trends in culture leading to the emergence of social media as a powerful communication/community channel, and walked through numerous social tools such as Twitter and Facebook. A lot has happened in the past year. We're assuming most of you are using social tools and our discussion today will be more about where we go from here.
SLIDE 2:
Since our last presentation, one in four of you has a new employer. Bloggers are regularly cited both on broadcast news as well as in the traditional press. Facebook has shot past long-time social network champ MySpace to become the largest social site. In fact, if Facebook were a country, it'd be the 11th largest, between Japan and Mexico.
Many brands have taken to social sites and engaged in social marketing programs. Starbucks, Dove, AllState, and many more have embraced these tools in fantastic ways. Also, the Obama campaign has proven the true power of this medium.
SLIDE 3:
Forrester Research created their Technographic model to categorize the various levels of participation in the social space.
(for more about Technographics, go to http://www.slideshare.net/jbernoff/social-technographics-explained)
SLIDE 4:
This year, Forrester updated their data and we can see several trends over the last 12 months. First, the number of people creating content has only grown marginally. But a large percent of the Inactives have become Spectators and Joiners. Critics and collectors are up as well, indicating significant numbers of Inactives are moving into the social space and participating, meaning the notion that social media might be a "fad" is clearly a falsehood. Once consumers have discovered the utility of collecting or joining, once they've found value in being able to express themselves or consume information, they will NOT relinquish that.
SLIDE 7:
Last year I showed a Google search on the word "Comcast". Comcast's official sites showed up at the top, along with this hilarious and very critical video, at position #7, made by a disgruntled Comcast customer. The video, showing a Comcast technician sleeping on the customer's sofa, had garnered 1.2MM views. [ LINK: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6958342899875420422&hl=en ]
SLIDE 8:
This year, Comcast has moved from target to participant, and is using Twitter to service customers. As people encounter problems with their service, they can interact directly with Comcast's Frank Eliason and get their problems resolved.
SLIDE 9:
Last year, Starbucks often appeared to sit on the sidelines of the social space. Many were perplexed by their seeming avoidance of social tools. This Twitter user is clearly curious as to why Starbucks is not active on Twitter.

This year, Starbucks took to the social space in a huge way, opening up MyStarbucksIdea to solicit operating ideas...

Current Research Questions in Word of Mouth CommunicationAlexander Rossmann
Word of mouth (WOM) communication, long recognized as a highly influential source of information, has taken on new importance with the proliferation of online WOM. The rise of online forums and communities has dramatically increased the scope of word of mouth marketing, allowing consumers greater access to information from subject matter experts and other key influentials who impact new purchases. Online WOM data have been widely used in the literature to examine topics such as the impact of WOM recommendations and reviews, brand community involvement, and product adoption. For all the valuable contributions made by WOM research, a lot of important questions still remain unexplored. One is delineating the preconditions for user engagement in WOM communication; another is exploring the role of WOM content and WOM context on the efficacy of WOM in general. And there is final area where research is needed, focusing on organizational capabilities firms need in order to foster the impact of WOM communication on purchasing behavior.
THE INFLUENCE OF SOCIAL NETWORK ON ONLINE PURCHASING BEHAVIOUR OF CONSUMERSRadhikaPatel78

Social influences within virtual consumer communitiesStephan ten Kate
This study investigates the social influence effects of social capital within virtual consumer communities on members’ attitudes towards the products that are being discussed within these communities. Since previous offline and online marketing studies primarily focused on consumer
attitude changes from an individual perspective, instead of integrating a view related to the social context, it examines the social influence processes of compliance, identification and internalization, and investigates how these influences emerge from the communities’ social system.
Data of 622 respondents gathered from five communities indicate that the communities’ social context can explain the development of these three social influences, and these interpersonal persuasion processes affect members’ product attitudes directly or indirectly in their turn. Internalization had the strongest effect on members’ product attitude changes, followed by compliance processes. Identification did not have a direct effect, but showed to have an indirect effect via compliance and internalization. Social capital proved to be a significant antecedent of all three influences. The community’s structural character only
influenced identification processes. The relations between the community members partly determined the emergence of identification and internalization processes, while a trusting relational setting negatively affected compliance processes. Cognitive social capital was an important antecedent for all three influence processes.

Hate is one of the most powerful human
emotion (Kucuk, 2019). Most of individuals
do not express this emotion and ignore it
(Kucuk, 2019). Referring to Robert Sternberg
(2003), theory duplex of hate, hate is
categorised by three components which are:
"anger and fear", "negation of intimacy and
disgust“, and "devaluation and diminution”.
