Persoalan yang dialami Keds ketika awal masuk ke Indonesia adalah persepsi bahwa Keds merupakan jenis sepatu, padahal Keds merupakan brand sebuah sepatu. Oleh karena itu, Keds mengadakan Campaign “Ladies First Since 1916” selain untuk merayakan ulang tahun Keds yang berusia 100 tahun, juga untuk memperkenalkan kembali kepada masyarakat bahwa Keds merupakan brand sneakers wanita pertama asal Amerika sejak 1916 serta melakukan penyampaian pesan persuasif melalui berbagai kegiatan promosi dalam campaign tersebut. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk melihat proses pengambilan keputusan pembelian customer Keds dalam Campaign “Ladies First Since 1916” berdasarkan Social Judgement Theory, bagaimana customer akan memaknai pesan persuasif dalam campaign tersebut yang selanjutnya akan dilihat tahap-tahap dalam pengambilan keputusan pembelian yang dilalui oleh customer. Penelitian dilakukan dengan metode kualitatif deskriptif melalui wawancara mendalam kepada customer Keds. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemaknaan pesan berdasarkan ego involvement kognitif dan mental berada pada latitude of acceptance yang mengarah pada efek asimilasi dan terlihat pada tahap evaluasi alternatif dalam berbagai tahap pengambilan keputusan pembelian yang dilalui customer Keds.<br /><strong>Kata kunci:</strong> keputusan pembelian, mental,sikap, persuasi</p>

Monetary rewards have become widely used to compensate user engagement in innovation contests. Building on literature on social judgement of organisations, we provide evidence on another important effect of monetary rewards in innovation contests, namely a signalling effect that may either enhance or lower a contest host’s legitimacy and subsequently users’ willingness to participate in the contest. Along three studies, we show that the signalling effect is especially beneficial for the innovation contest purposes that are incongruent with the host’s organisational stereotype, i.e., in cases where she lacks specific organisational traits that constitute users’ perception of organisational legitimacy. Offering a higher monetary reward in such a scenario allows hosts to overcome a lack of legitimacy and consequently foster user participation.

Relationship between body and self-image is a well-known and frequently investigated process. Most especially among athletes, this area has been accentuated till the last decades in the literature. This paper focuses on investigating the attitude of people engaged in sports on a regular basis by concentrating primarily on the perception of their body image, the type and form of sport activities, and the consumption habits of food supplements. After a short literature review, the results of the primary research are introduced. People who took part in the research are engaged in sports on a regular basis, and they do sport activities at least once a week on their own free will. Paper Assisted Personal Interviews (PAPI) was used, primarily concentrating on the attitudes of the respondents. During the research, the following conclusions were made: subjectively perceived “normal” body shape category moving higher and the social judgement of overweight became more and more accepted. Owing to the ideal body shape presented by the consumer society, slimmer people want to become thicker while people with a stronger shape want to become leaner. Hence a social problem come into being that only exist in the athlete’s mind. This phenomenon can fundamentally base the headway of food supplements since the producers offer solutions to all segments’ real or putative problems. The mostly unreal body ideals boost the dissatisfaction of people towards their own bodies. Producers and distributors of food supplements not only emphasize and draw their customers’ attention to the imperfection of their shape, but they also offer a solution to their real or putative problems. The more the consumer is hesitating, the more favourable it is for the producer as the possibility of purchasing is greater.
