Abstract:The article aims to study the effect of social dynamics on everyday consumption. Consumers sometimes generate innovation processes by improvising solutions in their everyday life. The authors conduct a web-based study, where consumers are able to share their enthusiasm and information about car modification. It is found that grounded aesthetics works as a base for creativity and reworking of dominant market logic. Consumers' online discursive power is a resource that should not be understated, but in turn nurtured and harvested. This paper proposes ways to benefit from this resource.
