Companies operating in social network platforms continue to improve and expand their marketing techniques. This study examines the practice of "gating", which involves virtual barriers between social network users and company content. Gates demand mandatory user endorsements, in the form of a Facebook "Likes", Twitter "retweets" etc., to gain access to company content, such as coupons and rewards,. Gating practices demand a mandatory endorsement before any content consumption takes place. Thus, while user endorsements are assumed to arise voluntarily from trusted known sources, gating practices would appear to violate this assumption. However, whether this violation lessens the effectiveness of gating practices still requires empirical validation. We investigate this question through the use of a unique panel data set that includes data on "like" endorsements obtained from a number of real-world Facebook business pages. Results of the study show that gating practices are effective for endorsement solicitation; however, gates may interfere with more traditional marketing activities.

Hence, marketers have selected Facebook as the most important platform to get customer engagement. With respect to the customer engagement enhancement, the most popular and engaging post type in the Facebook brand fan pages related to what was usually classified as 'sweepstakes'. Sweepstakes refer to a form of gambling where the entire prize may be awarded to the winner. Which makes customers more engaged with the brand. This study aims to explore sweepstakes-oriented social media marketing approaches based on the application of big data analytics. Design/methodology/approach we collect sweepstakes data from each company based on the data crawling from the Facebook brand fan pages. The output of this study explains how companies in each category of FCB grid can design and apply sweepstakes for their social media marketing. Findings The results show that they have one thing in common across the four quadrants of FCB grid. Regardless of the quadrants, most frequently observed type is 'Simple/Quiz or Comments/Quatrains [event type of sweepstakes] + Gifticon [type of reward prize] + Image [type of message display] + No URL [Link toother website] +Single-Gift-Offer [type of reward prize payment]'. So, if the position of the brand is hard to be defined by the FCB grid model, then this general rule can be applied to all types of brands. Also some differences between the quadrants of the FCB grid were observed. This study offers several research implications by analyzing Sweepstakes-oriented social media marketing approaches in Facebook brand fan pages. By using the FCB grid model, this study provides guidance on how companies can design their sweepstakes-oriented social media marketing approaches in the context of Facebook brand fan pages by considering their context.

Cervical cancer is a major public health problem in Thailand, being ranked second only to breast cancer. Thai women have been reported to have a low rate of cervical cancer screening (27.7% of the 80% goal of WHO). We therefore aimed to apply the social marketing theory and health belief model in promoting cervical cancer screening in Kanthararom District, Sisaket Province. A total of 92 from 974 targeted women aged 30-60 years were randomly divided into two groups. The experimental group underwent application of social marketing theory and a health belief model program promoting cervical cancer screening while the control group received normal services. Two research tools were used: (1) application of social marketing theory and health belief model program and (2) questionnaire used to evaluate perceptions of cervical cancer. Descriptive and inferential statistics including paired sample t-test and independent t-test were used to analyze the data. After the program had been used, the mean score of perception of cervical cancer of experimental group was at a higher level (${\bar{x}}=4.09$; S.D.=0.30), than in the control group (${\bar{x}}=3.82$; S.D.=0.20) with statistical significance (p<0.001). This research demonstrated an appropriate communication process in behavioral modification to prevent cervical cancer. It can be recommended that this program featuring social marketing and the health belief model be used to promote cervical cancer screening in targeted women and it can be promoted as a guideline for other health services, especially in health promotion and disease prevention.

본 연구는 그동안 소셜미디어 성과연구에서 다소 소홀했던 소셜미디어 기업들의 강압적이고 비자발적인 마케팅 자극과 부정적 결과물에 대한 관련성을 규명하고자 하였다. 아울러 사회문화적인 환경의 차이가 있는 대표적인 소셜미디어 시장인 한국과 중국의 소셜미디어 서비스들을 비교하고자 하였다. 분석 결과, 강압적인 마케팅 자극들이 소셜미디어 기업들의 부정적인 성과를 유발하였으며, 특히 강압적인 마케팅 자극에 따른 이용자들의 태도 및 부정적인 성과가 한국과 중국의 시장에서 극명하게 차이를 보이고 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 소셜미디어를 활용하여 자신들의 비즈니스를 수행하고자 하는 개인이나 기업들에게 보다 실질적인 시사점들을 제공할 것으로 기대된다.

소셜미디어는 기업과 소비자와의 관계와 커뮤니케이션에 있어서 일대 혁신을 가져옴으로써 기업의 마케팅 활동을 급속히 변화, 발전시키고 있다. 블로그와 SNS 는 고객과의 커뮤니케이션 효과를 극대화하기 위한 새로운 크로스미디어 플랫폼으로, 국내 기업들도 포탈검색, 블로그, SNS 등, 다양한 채널들을 활용하여 마케팅 하는 사례들이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구는 마케팅 활용 관점에서 포털 검색 광고와 블로그, SNS 채널들의 특징과 기대되는 성과들을 국내 기업 사례 분석을 통해 비교 분석하고, 마케팅 활동 목적과 방향에 따라 각 채널들을 어떻게 독자적, 혹은 통합적으로 활용하여 마케팅 성과를 극대화시킬 수 있을지에 관한 전략적 틀과 시사점을 제시하고자 하였다. 포탈검색 광고 채널은 관계지향성, 운영독창성 측면에서 우수한 것으로 평가되었으나 채널차별성, 내용적합성, 고객활용성, 네트워크성 측면, 특히 협업과 사회공헌 활동에의 참여 부문에서는 성과가 낮다고 판단되었다. 블로그 채널은 공개적절성, 질적수월성, 정보관리, 협업, 사회공헌활동 측면에서 높은 성과가 있다고 평가되었다. SNS 채널은 관계지향성, 고객지향성, 내용충실성, 고객활용성, 브랜드 이미지 강화, 비용절감, 홍보 및 광고 효과 등에서 높은 성과를 보였다. 따라서 기업은 시장 및 타겟 고객 조사활동, 홍보, 고객관계관리 강화, 신제품 테스트 및 입소문, 이벤트 진행 등, 마케팅 활동의 목적을 분명히 정의하고 각 채널의 상대적인 장점과 단점을 이해하여 각 채널을 독립적, 혹은 유기적으로 연계하여 상호 보완하면서 통합 마케팅 커뮤니케이션 전략을 수립하여야 한다.

이 연구는 상품을 알리는 마케팅 측면에서 유용한 수단인 소셜미디어와 소비자를 설득하는 커뮤니케이션 측면에서 유용한 수단인 게이미피케이션 기법을 결합한 새로운 마케팅 트렌드를 심도 있게 살펴보고자 한다. 게이미피케이션은 오래전부터 다양한 분야에서 활용된 기법이나 고전적 게이미피케이션 기법과 소셜미디어 상에서의 게이미피케이션 기법에는 차이가 존재한다. 따라서 소셜미디어와 게이미피케이션에 대한 이론적 고찰을 바탕으로 소셜미디어와 게이미피케이션의 결합 현상의 배경과 특징을 살펴보았다. 그리고 게이미피케이션을 활용한 소셜미디어 마케팅 사례분석을 통해 사용자의 마케팅 참여 정도와 방법에 따라 일반참여형, 주도적 참여형, 창조행위형, 관계형, 체험형으로 기업의 마케팅을 유형화했다. 이를 통해 소셜미디어와 게이미피케이션이 결합할 때 나타나는 변화양상을 고전적 게임기법과 비교하였는데, 경쟁-성취-관계가 오늘날의 소비자에게 좀 더 유의미한 영향을 주는 요인으로 파악되었다. 이 연구는 게이미피케이션을 활용한 소셜미디어 마케팅의 변화된 게임기법을 연구하여 마케팅 전략에 도움이 되는 기반을 마련했다는 점에 의의가 있다.
