Abstract

Companies have been eager to use the new social media to expand their business. After a few years of trials, there are common acceptable views that a company should not use social media for selling products. A better way is to build up its brand value through social media. However, there have been rare academic studies on the response of social media users to the promotion messages. This research aims to fill up this gap. A modified Integrated Model of Persuasion is developed for explaining the cognitive process of receiving a message through social media. Propositions and hypotheses can be determined based on the modified Integrated Model of Persuasion.
