Abstract [sv]

Följande studie ämnar undersöka generella samband mellan konsumenters hållbarhetstänk och deras attityd till hållbar marknadskommunikation. Studiens syfte är att undersöka konsumenters attityd till hållbar marknadskommunikation och huruvida konsumenter själva efterlever de krav vid konsumtion som de ställer på företagen inom hållbarhet. Studiens relevans ligger i bakgrunden av konsumtionens negativa klimatpåverkan och samhällets medvetenhet kring klimatfrågorna.

 

Studien grundar sig i en kvantitativ metod. Metoden kommer att appliceras på studien genom att utföra en enkätundersökning bestående en frågeenkät. Analysen av de insamlade svaren från enkäten utgår ifrån kommunikationsteori. Studien kommer ge en djupare förståelse för hur konsumenter upplever hållbar marknadskommunikation.

 

Studiens resultat visar en tydlig uppdelning mellan konsumenter i två olika kategorier; de som hade positiv attityd till hållbarhet och de som inte lade någon vikt i hållbarhetsfrågor. Resultatet visar att oavsett tidigare attityd till hållbarhet, har konsumenter i princip likartade åsikter gällande företags hållbara marknadskommunikation och hållbarhetsarbete. De generella sambanden som finns mellan konsumenters attityd till hållbarhet och hur de uppmärksammar hållbar marknadskommunikation är att oavsett tidigare erfarenhet kring hållbarhet har de en vilja att bli gröna konsumenter.

Abstract [en]

The following study intends to examine general connections between consumers' sustainability thinking and their attitude to sustainable marketing communication. The purpose of the study is to investigate consumers' attitudes to sustainable market communication and whether consumers themselves comply with the consumption requirements that they place on companies in sustainability. The relevance of the study lies in the background of consumption's negative climate impact and society's awareness of climate issues.

 

The study is based on a quantitative method. The method will be applied to the study by conducting a questionnaire survey consisting of a questionnaire. The analysis of the answers collected from the questionnaire is based on communication theory. The study will provide a deeper understanding of how consumers experience sustainable marketing communication.

 

The results of the study show a clear division between consumers into two different categories; those who had a positive attitude towards sustainability and those who did not attach any importance to sustainability issues. The results show that regardless of previous attitudes to sustainability, consumers have basically similar views regarding companies' sustainable marketing communication and sustainability work. The general connection that exists between consumers' attitudes to sustainability and how they pay attention to sustainable marketing communication is that regardless of previous experience of sustainability, they have a desire to become green consumers.
