Sosyal medya, tüketicinin markalarla etkileşimini geliştirmenin yeni bir yolu olarak ortaya hayatımıza girdi. Çok geçmeden, sektörleri ne olursa olsun şirketler, medya kanalları aracılığıyla uzun vadeli ve istikrarlı bir ilişki kurmak için sosyal medyanın stratejik önemini fark ettiler. Bu çalışma, eğlence, kişiselleştirme, etkileşim, ağızdan ağıza iletişim ve trend olman gibi sosyal medya özelliklerinin müşteri katılımına etkisini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Nicel bir araştırma türü benimsenmiştir. Veri toplama yöntemi, çevrimiçi ankettir. Kolayda örneklem yöntemi kullanılarak, 334 katılımcıdan kullanılabilir veri elde edilmiştir. Yapısal Eşitlik Modeli isle hipotez testi yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın üç ana bulgusu göze çarpmaktadır. İlk olarak, etkileşimin hem bilişsel hem de duygusal katılımı geliştirdiği bulunmuştur. İkincisi, sosyal medya sitelerinin özelleştirilmiş eğlencesi hem bilişsel hem de duygusal katılımı artırıyor gibi görünüyordu. Bununla birlikte, her iki değişken de müşteri katılımına katkıda bulunma eğilimindedir, ancak esas olarak duygusal katılım ön plana çıkmaktadır. Üçüncüsü, trendin ve ağızdan ağıza iletişimin (WOM) müşteri katılımı üzerindeki etkileri bu araştırma kapsamında tespit edilmemiştir. Bu çalışma, müşteri katılımı konusundaki sosyal medya özelliklerini inceleyen ve katılımın nasıl geliştirilebileceğine dair içgörüler sunan mevcut literatüre katkıda bulunmaktadır.
