Using Social Media as a Marketing Tool Based on Linette Retail OÜ
No full textSotsiaalmeedia turundus on uus turunduskeskkond, mis on tekkinud Interneti suhtlusvõrgustike populariseerumisel. See on muutnud turunduses seni kasutusel olnud strateegiaid ning eesmärke. Töö on ajendatud probleemidest sotsiaalmeediaturunduse kasutamisest. Antud turundusvaldkond on kasutusel laialdaselt, kuid erinevate uuringute andmetel puuduvad paljudel ettevõtetel teadmised ja oskused kuidas seda tegema peaks ning kas see ka kasumlik on. Uurimus on läbi viidud Linette Retail OÜ näitel, kus kasutatakse sotsiaalmeediat kui turundusvahendit, kuid ei teata, kas see on ennast ära tasunud. Käesoleva töö eesmärgiks oli teha parendusettepanekuid Linette Retail OÜ’le sotsiaalmeedia kasutamises turundusvahendina. Et seda teha koostati üldine tarbijauuring selgitamaks tarbija seisukohta ettevõtete sotsiaalmeedia turundustegevuse kohta ning analüüsiti Linette Retail OÜ senist turundustegevust sotsiaalmeedias. Linette Retail OÜ on rahvusvaheline ettevõte, mis hõlmab endas kaht tootmisettevõtet (Linette Tallinnas ning Valessa Viljandis) ning 11 “Linette” esinduskauplust, milledest 1 asub Riias. Linette toodab naiste korsetitooteid nii omatoodanguna kui ka allhankena. Tootmisse kuuluvad rinnahoidjad, püksid, stringid, bodyd, sukahoidjad, ujumisriided, päevitusriided ning ööpesu. Lisategevuseks on kandilõikamine ning materjali müük. Tootmine toimub Tallinnas ettevõtte peamajas ning Vilandi tütarettevõttes OÜ Valessa. Tarbijauuringu järeldusena selgus, et sotsiaalmeedial on väga suur roll tarbija seisukohalt. Interneti kasutatakse informatsiooni leidmiseks pesu soetamisel ning samuti tuleb uurmisest välja, et pesu puhul loetakse sotsiaalmeediat parimaks reklaamkanaliks. Sotsiaalmeedia kanalite puhul on välja toodud Facebook, kui parim keskkond ning sotsiaalmeediat usaldab enamik küsitlusele vastanutest. Analüüsi tulemusena selgus ka, et Linette brändi hinnatakse kõrgelt, kuid nende tegevus sotsiaalmeedias ei ole olnud silmapaistev. Linette sotsiaalturunduse hetkeolukorra analüüs näitas, et kasutusel on vaid keskkond Facebook ning sealses turundustegevuses on liialt on keskendutud Linette viimastele uudistele, sooduspakkumistele ning kampaaniatele. Kõrvale on jäetud kliendisuhete juhtimine- inimestega suhtlemine, nendelt küsimuste küsimine. Antud töö näol on valminud abimaterjal, mida saab Linette soovi korral kasutada oma sotsiaalmeedia turundustegevuse parenduseks Töös toodud ülevaated ning soovitused annavad informatsiooni nii eesmärkide seadmiseks, kui ka selleks, et millele tuleb tähelepanu pöörata antud turundusvaldkonnas.Social media marketing is a new marketing environment that has emerged with online social networking popularization. It has changed marketing strategies and objectives been used so far. This thesis is motivated by problems in the use of social media marketing. This area of marketing is widely used, but various studies show that many companies lack the knowledge and skills of how to do that, and even if it is profitable. The study has been carried out on the example of Linette Retail LLC, which has been using social media as a marketing tool, but it is not known whether it has paid off. The aim of this thesis was do give suggestions for improvement to Linette Retail LLC on social media usage as a marketing tool. To do so was composed a comprehensive consumer survey in order to clarify the position of consumer about businessis using social media as a marketing tool and Linette Retail LLC current marketing efforts in social media was analyzed by the author. Linette Retail LLC is an international company, which includes two production companies (Linette Tallinn and Valessa Viljandi), and 11 "Linette" stores, one of which is located in Riga, Latvia. Linette produces women corset products as its own production as well as outsourced. Production contains bras, panties, thong, bodies, suspenders, swimwear, bikini, and sleepwear. Production takes place in Tallinn in the main house and the company's subsidiary LLC Valessa Viljandi. The consumer study's conclusions revealed that social media has a very big role in the consumer's mind. Internet is beeing used to find information about underwear and social media is considered to be the best advertising channel(in particular Facebook) for underwear. majority of the respondents trust social media. The analysis also showed that Linette brand is highly valued, but their activity in the social media has not been prominent. Linette Social Marketing analysis revealed that Facebook is the only social media channel they use and on Facebook , the focus is on the latest news, discount offers and campaigns. Customer relationship magament – communcation with followers is beeing sidelined. The result can be used by Linette Retail LLC to develop their social media strategy. Rewiews and recommendations made in this thesis give information for setting goals and informs about important acpects
Polyanhydride blends as drug delivery matrices to control biofilms, bone and nerve regeneration
No full textBiodegradable polyanhydrides were fabricated into disks, coatings, microspheres, and tubes for controlled drug delivery as well as enhanced thermal and mechanical properties. The polymer systems were evaluated as potential treatments for periodontal disease, orthopedic injuries, nerve regeneration, and biofilm formation. The polymers contained the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), salicylic acid and the antibiotic, ampicillin, in the polymer backbone, which are subsequently released as the polymers degrade. Significantly, the polymers can be fabricated into these different geometries that would not be possible with the drug molecules alone.
This dissertation characterizes the in vitro degradation of the polyanhydrides specifically for the multiple applications. Polymer degradation was monitored by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) for final degradation products. The effect of physically admixing additional drugs into the polymer matrix was studied as well, where the admixed drugs were delineated from the chemically incorporated drugs by HPLC. Accelerated in vitro degradation rates were developed using highly basic media.
Mechanical and thermal properties were examined for potential orthopedic and nerve applications. The compliance and modulus of polymer blends and composites were measured to characterize the flexibility and strength of each system. Additionally, properties, such as glass transition temperature (Tg) and decomposition temperature (Td) were measured to monitor polymer changes as a result of processing and degradation.
Overall, the fundamental chemical, thermal and mechanical properties of each polyanhydride system were monitored. This dissertation describes the optimization of controlled drug release rates for specific applications through composites and blends of ceramics (hydroxyapatite), drugs (antimicrobials and NSAIDs), and polymers (polyanhydrides).Ph.D.Includes bibliographical references

These responsibilities suggest a planning perspective by local officials for public service. However, local officials more often find themselves reacting to public and private policy decisions
