Abstract

This study focuses on the impact of product placement on a video sharing platform (YouTube). The majority of previous research on product placement has been done for media such as film or television. In the context of this article, we will ask whether YouTube has specific features in terms of product placement, both in terms of the characteristics of a placement and the role it can have on the emotional and behavioural responses of Internet users. To answer these questions, we have conducted semi-structured interviews with 15 Internet users. From our study, it appears that a product placement on YouTube has an additional characteristic, disclosure, and that it can generate positive emotions if the placement is subtle and negative if it is prominent. These emotions will have an impact on consumers' behavioural responses, such as recall, attitude towards the brand, or purchase intention.
