Abstract

Objective: This research aims to explore how the ethical application of artificial intelligence (AI) in marketing can empower consumers through transparency, data control, and bias reduction. The main focus of this research is to understand the impact of giving consumers control over their personal data, transparency in the use of AI, and bias mitigation efforts on consumer trust and loyalty. Research Design & Methods: This research employs thematic analysis to identify themes on ethical and legal challenges in AI-based marketing, using specific keywords to ensure relevance. Sources were selected for credibility, relevance, and recent publication, with key seminal works also included. Findings: The results show that consumer empowerment through ethical AI increases trust and loyalty. Transparency of data use and control over personal information are important for strong relationships between consumers and brands. Reducing bias in AI algorithms is also necessary for fairness and inclusiveness. Implications & Recommendations: This research recommends companies to implement ethics in AI marketing through data transparency, consumer control over personal data, and bias-free algorithms. The application of explainable AI (XAI) is also recommended to increase consumer understanding and trust, ultimately strengthening loyalty through ethical and responsible AI. Contribution & Value Added: This research enriches the AI marketing literature by emphasizing the importance of ethics in empowering consumers and provides practical guidance for companies to implement AI ethically, transparently, and with respect for consumer privacy.

Abstract

Objective: This research aims to explore the role of authentic narratives in sustainability marketing and their impact on consumer trust, loyalty and cultural consumption patterns. The research focuses on how consistency in sustainability claims and transparent communication influence consumer perceptions, especially among younger generations such as Millennials and Gen Z. Research Design & Methods: This phenomenological study explored consumers' experiences with inconsistent sustainability claims through in-depth interviews and a review of greenwashing-related literature. Thematic analysis identified key themes such as disappointment, distrust and the impact on purchasing behaviour. Findings: The findings reveal that authentic narratives increase consumer trust, reduce scepticism and drive brand loyalty by 42% when aligned with company actions. Consistent communication increased Gen Z recommendations by 30%, while inconsistent claims decreased purchase intent by 35%. Implications & Recommendations: Companies should adopt authentic narratives in marketing that are aligned with sustainability actions. Regulators need to establish a framework to monitor and certify sustainability claims to address greenwashing. Contribution & Value Added: This study fills the literature gap by integrating insights on authentic narratives and sustainable marketing. This research offers a framework for practitioners to implement marketing strategies that align with consumer values, supporting the cultural shift towards sustainable consumption.

Abstract

Objective: This research aims to explore how elements of immersive brand experiences in the metaverse-including gamification, interactive narrative, social interaction, visual realism, and the use of blockchain technology and NFTs-contribute to emotional engagement, belonging, and consumer loyalty. Research Design & Methods: This study uses an exploratory qualitative approach with in-depth interview techniques with more than 20 participants who actively interact with brands on metaverse platforms such as Roblox, Decentraland, and The Sandbox. Data analysis was conducted through a thematic approach to identify patterns of consumer engagement and perception. Findings: The results show that immersive experiences that are participatory and personalized drive strong emotional attachment to brands. Gamification increases intrinsic motivation, interactive narratives deepen the emotional experience, and social interactions form a sense of community. Realistic visualizations increase trust, while NFT ownership provides a sense of exclusivity and control that strengthens consumer loyalty. Implications & Recommendations: Brands are advised to design holistic metaverse experiences, integrating game elements, stories, communities and blockchain-based digital assets to build more meaningful and sustainable relationships with consumers. Contribution & Value Added: This research makes a theoretical contribution to the study of digital marketing and brand engagement by highlighting the importance of a multidimensional approach based on immersive technology in building consumer loyalty in the Web3 era.

Abstract

Objective: This research aims to understand how green advertising influences consumers' emotional and cognitive responses, and how neuroimaging approaches can be used to more accurately evaluate the effectiveness of sustainability messages. The main focus is on identifying the unconscious mechanisms that drive negative spillover effects such as greenwashing, moral licensing and rebound effects. Research Design & Methods: This is a qualitative study based on a systematic literature review of relevant scholarly articles, particularly those that integrate affective heuristic approaches and neuroimaging findings. Consumer brain activation patterns when processing green advertisements and the relationship between message elements and individual characteristics were analyzed. Findings: Findings show that green advertisements that combine verbal and nonverbal messages can trigger affective responses through the activation of brain areas such as the amygdala, insula, vmPFC and TPJ. These emotional effects often appear before cognitive elaboration, confirming the role of affective primacy. Consumers' responses are strongly influenced by their regulatory focus and prosocial values. Implications & Recommendations: These results suggest that marketers design green advertisements with psychological and cultural factors in mind. Neuroimaging is also suggested as an objective advertising pre-test evaluation tool. Contribution & Value Added: This research contributes by integrating neuroscience approaches into the realm of green marketing, as well as offering a more holistic evaluative framework in designing effective sustainability communications.

Abstract

Objective: This research aims to explore how Augmented Reality (AR) technology contributes to shortening the customer journey in e-commerce by enhancing product exploration, facilitating evaluation, and accelerating purchase decisions. The focus is placed on industries where product visualization is critical, namely cosmetics and furniture. Research Design & Methods: A qualitative approach was used, involving a comprehensive literature analysis and in-depth interviews with ten active users of an AR-integrated e-commerce platform. These users were purposively selected from two sectors-cosmetics and furniture-to gain insight into real user experiences across different product types. Thematic analysis was used to identify recurring patterns and behavioral tendencies. Findings: The study found that AR significantly impacts three key stages of the customer journey: product exploration, evaluation of alternatives, and final decision-making. AR increases user confidence through realistic visualizations, reduces perceived risk by providing interactive simulations, and increases engagement through control and enjoyment. In addition, AR contributes to the value of the experience, leading to greater confidence and purchase intention. Implications & Recommendations: From a managerial perspective, integrating AR into e-commerce platforms creates strategic value by shortening the buying cycle, enriching the customer experience, and strengthening brand loyalty. Businesses are advised to invest in user-friendly AR interfaces and personalize AR experiences based on user interaction data. Future research should expand to other industries and incorporate quantitative methods to validate and generalize the findings. Contribution & Value Added: This study contributes to the literature by positioning AR not only as a visualization tool but also as a strategic enabler to accelerate consumer decision-making. It adds value by bridging the gap between immersive technologies and practical marketing applications in the digital economy.
