The primary goal of the research is to investigate the efficiency of various digital marketing tools in the skincare industry, as well as to assess market trends and customer behavior in order to enhance sales. The study included a survey of 100 Spanish customers aged 18 to 64, and six regression models were developed to forecast sales growth based on various criteria. Transparency, sustainability, and personalized skincare products, as well as user-generated content and reviews, are highlighted as successful marketing methods to promote sales in the research. The study also emphasizes how age and gender play a significant role in this connection as well as the limited influence of influencer and celebrity marketing on skincare product sales. According to the findings, skincare firms should concentrate on developing transparent, environmentally friendly products that are customized to consumers' interests, using usergenerated content and reviews in their marketing strategies to boost sales.

Products made from recycled materials: perceptions in the fashion industry and risks influence on purchasing
(Palgrave Macmillan, 2025-03-13) Toquero-Iriarte, Maite; Aramendia Muneta, María Elena; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa; Institute for Advanced Research in Business and Economics - INARBE
This study investigates the impact of the fashion industry on the environment and the subsequent shift towards a more sustainable model. The ecological, economic, and social implications of this sector have fostered an increase in consumer awareness, prompting a demand for a more circular system. The concept of circular fashion, which promotes a closed-loop approach with an emphasis on recycled materials, has emerged as a key solution. However, the consumer perceptions of products made from recycled materials in the fashion industry remains relatively unexplored, necessitating an examination of potential barriers. By employing both model analysis and cluster analysis techniques, this research sheds light on the primary variables that significantly influence consumer attitudes and purchase intentions towards such products with a particular emphasis on performance risk. Moreover, the identification of four distinct consumer groups holds crucial implications for the development of targeted marketing strategies.

Regionalism vs. bilateralism: an analysis on trade flows in advanced and emerging economies
(IGI Global, 2025) Pluda, Carolina; Aramendia Muneta, María Elena; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa
This chapter analyzes the role of regionalism versus bilateral trade relationships in the context of international trade disruptions caused by the COVID- 19 pandemic. The export and import flows of 11 advanced and 12 emerging economies are ex- amined and compared to identify their primary economic interests, whether linked to regional trade blocs or bilateral partnerships, with or without formal trade agreements (preferential and non- preferential). The findings indicate that advanced economies trade similarly within their blocs and partnerships, regardless of tariff preferences, while emerging economies prioritize half of their trade through non- preferential bilateral partnerships. The trade patterns reveal strong convergence among developed economies and a latent alignment with emerging economies, which also display a uniform trade distribution.

Spread the word – The effect of word of mouth in e-marketing
(De Gruyter, 2017) Aramendia Muneta, María Elena; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa
Word of mouth (WOM) is an extraordinary mechanism with which to spread information and disinformation. There is an interaction between WOM and eWOM, creating different channels for the dissemination of information. However, this information cannot be controlled by marketers; at least this is seldom the case. Positive and negative comments are found in eWOM and they have a powerful influence on credibility, trust and persuasiveness, where influ- encers play a main role. Brand reputation is shaped by the flow of information and disinformation on the Internet. Social networks are a real tool with which to create and place information. A comment may greatly benefit consumers, pre- venting uncertainty and boosting sales. eWOM disseminates both information and disinformation, and so internet users and marketers are faced with the problem of how to turn this to their own benefi
