Tiivistelmä: | This study explores the firms' participation in online (here as: o-l.) communities as a means to enhance demand for their products. A simulation model is developed to illustrate how demand evolves as a function of interpersonal communication and a firm's chosen strategy. In this model, the firm's strategy involves allocating advocates promoting its product in o-l. communities. The results point to some key parameters informing firms' strategies when social learning processes shape demand. |
