(2018) SKOK11 20181Department of Strategic Communication
- Abstract (Swedish)
- Syftet med uppsatsen var att vinna fördjupad förståelse om hur ett plattformsföretag samskapar värde med sina konsumenter genom sin digitala storytelling. Vidare avsåg studien undersöka hur samskapat värde kommuniceras strategiskt. Studien använde sig av en textanalys och är av kvalitativ fallstudiekaraktär. Det empiriska underlaget bestod av digitala berättelser insamlade från Airbnbs Youtube-konto och blogg, Airbnb Citizen. Det empiriska materialet analyserades från ett sändarperspektiv och kontextualiserades genom teorier om co-creation of value, värdeskapande samt digital storytelling. Analysen visade att det finns ett flertal samskapande egenskaper i de digitala berättelserna i form av tillgång, transparens och dialog. Vidare visade... (More)

Det empiriska materialet analyserades från ett sändarperspektiv och kontextualiserades genom teorier om co-creation of value, värdeskapande samt digital storytelling. Analysen visade att det finns ett flertal samskapande egenskaper i de digitala berättelserna i form av tillgång, transparens och dialog. Vidare visade analysen fyra typer av samskapade värden: ekonomiska, sociala, hedoniska och altruistiska, vilka kommunicerades strategiskt i form av budskap. I analysen identifierades även egenskaper i Airbnbs digitala storytelling vilka kunde anses vara av icke-samskapande karaktär, vilket reflekterar problematiken och komplexiteten i att ämna förstå co-creation of value samt storytelling i relation till varandra. Resultatet av studien belyser både utmaningar och möjligheter i hur koncepten kan förstås i en digital marknadsföringskontext. Det kan även anses bidra med praktisk kunskap om hur plattformsföretag kan anamma samskapad, digital storytelling i sin marknadskommunikation. (Less)
- Abstract
- The aim of this study was to deepen the understanding of how a platform enterprise co-creates value with their consumers through their digital storytelling. A further aim of this study was to understand how co-created values are communicated strategically. The study was conducted through a qualitative case study, using a textual analysis. The material consisted of digital stories gathered from Airbnbs Youtube account and blog, Airbnb Citizen. The empirical material was analysed from the perspective of the sender and has been contextualized through theories of co-creation of value, value creation and digital storytelling. The analysis found that there are several co-creative qualities in the digital stories in the form of access,... (More)

A further aim of this study was to understand how co-created values are communicated strategically. The study was conducted through a qualitative case study, using a textual analysis. The material consisted of digital stories gathered from Airbnbs Youtube account and blog, Airbnb Citizen. The empirical material was analysed from the perspective of the sender and has been contextualized through theories of co-creation of value, value creation and digital storytelling. The analysis found that there are several co-creative qualities in the digital stories in the form of access, transparency and dialogue. Furthermore, the analysis showed four types of co-created value: economical, social, hedonic and altruistic, which were strategically communicated in the form of messages. However, we also identified qualities in the stories which could not be considered as co- creative, which reflects the complexity of understanding co-creation of value and storytelling in relation to each other. The results of the study highlight both challenges and opportunities in how these concepts can be understood in a digital marketing context. It could also be seen to contribute practical knowledge on how platform enterprises can adapt co-created, digital storytelling in their marketing communication. (Less)
