Tytuł artykułu: Wpływ reklamy opartej na nostalgii na wartość marki w branży zabawkarskiej na przykładzie Grupy LEGO
Cel: Celem artykułu jest omówienie możliwości wykorzystania nostalgii jako narzędzia służącego do budowania lojalności konsumenckiej oraz wskazanie, jak ten konstrukt psychologiczny może oddziaływać na wartość marki.
Metodyka badań: Badania przeprowadzono na próbie N = 255 konsumentów z Polski (172 mężczyzn i 83 kobiety) z wykorzystaniem metody CAWI (computer assisted web interview) w panelu internetowym w miesiącach od czerwca do września 2020 r. Autor zdecydował się na badanie korelacyjne, mając na uwadze popularność tego modelu badawczego w literaturze przedmiotu.
Wyniki badań: Wyniki badań pokazały, że wcześniejsze doświadczenia z marką mają istotny wpływ na nostalgicznie ukierunkowaną chęć zakupu produktów tejże marki, t253 = 2,634, p = 0,009. Ponadto uczucia nostalgiczne żywione względem marki pozytywnie oddziaływały na siłę wartości marki LEGO® – skonceptualizowanej jako składającej się z czterech elementów.
Wnioski: Badania przedstawione w artykule mogą posłużyć zarówno menedżerom, jak i marketerom szukającym rozwiązań dywersyfikacyjnych, wpływając na poprawę efektywności podejmowanych przez nich działań marketingowych.
Wkład w rozwój dyscypliny: Wyniki badań wnoszą do literatury przedmiotu określenie wpływu działań marketingowych odwołujących się do uczuć nostalgicznych na wartość marki dla konsumentów w kontekście międzynarodowym.
