Abstract

While last two decades have seen a visible change in the marketing landscape, due to unprecedented technological advances, social media is emerging as an important marketing tool. Although many research studies have been carried out in the area of social media marketing, there is paucity of literature on the effect of social media marketing on customer equity. Therefore, an attempt is being made in this paper to address the current deficit of literature on social media marketing linkages with customer equity. A conceptual framework is proposed for further analysis, this framework identifies the linkages through which social media marketing effects the antecedents of customer equity.
