Abstract:
Recently, a new wave of business opportunities has emerged by integrating social media and commerce. Although many hospitality organizations have considered online social communities as potential channels for promotion, most of them have failed to obtain sales from community members. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to propose and examine a new research model that can capture cognitive- and affective-based trust elements influencing fans' behavioral intention to purchase by affecting their firm commitment. A survey of 393 Facebook participants found strong support for the model. The re

ABSTRACT This study examines 9,861 public firms to investigate the current adoption status of two popular social media platforms (Facebook™ and Twitter™) and their application in corporate disclosure. The investigation is based on the framework defined by Meek, Roberts, and Gray (1995) and on variations in platform, industry, firm size, time, and intensity (i.e., accounts owned, messages released, and user interaction). The results show that 49 percent of the firms have adopted one platform, and 30 percent have adopted both platforms. However, the numbers of new adopters on both platforms have

Despite the recent increase in the adoption and use of social media tools to support firm operations, very little empirical research focusing on small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) has been conducted to-date.

In particular, we assess the impact of organizational, manager and environmental characteristics on SME utilization of the Facebook Events Page.

Despite the fact that it offers advantages on both sides, new threats are constantly emerging. Social media usage is widespread, but awareness is low, which makes significant cyberattacks more likely. Numerous threat categories put consumers at risk for cy

Abstract:
It has been realized for a long time that network effects play an important role in how market participants compete with each other. Arguably, companies like Facebook and Google are able to gain immense market power by leveraging the network effects of their consumers, despite potential competitors. This paper investigates how the dynamics play out in duopoly competition. We find that when the network effects per unit of consumption are weak, the competitors can co-exist and gain even market shares. As network effects become stronger, it is unstable, and even impossible, for the firms to coexi
