The widespread use of the Internet and the interest of its users in social networks have led the marketing approaches of businesses from traditional methods to online methods and led to the emergence of social media marketing. Social media has transformed customers from passive viewers to active participants by enabling content sharing, content sharing and two-way communication, and has created great changes in customers' search, selection and purchase behaviors for products/services. Social media marketing focuses on all the marketing activities that businesses do through social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and provides businesses with many benefits such as brand loyalty, brand awareness, increasing sales and reaching more customers at the most affordable cost. This study focuses on creating a broad conceptual framework for social media marketing. In addition, the study aims to assist business managers and marketing professionals in making relevant marketing decisions by examining the advantages, challenges and strategies of social media marketing in the retail industry.

Öz

İnternetin yaygın olarak kullanılması ve kullanıcılarının sosyal ağlara ilgisi, işletmelerin pazarlama yaklaşımlarını, geleneksel yöntemlerden çevrimiçi yöntemlere doğru yöneltmiş ve sosyal medya pazarlamasının doğmasına neden olmuştur. Sosyal medya, içeriğe katkıda bulunmaya, içeriği paylaşmaya ve iki yönlü iletişime imkân sağlayarak, müşterileri pasif izleyicilerden aktif katılımcılara dönüştürmüş ve müşterilerin ürün/hizmetleri arama, seçme ve satın alma davranışlarında büyük değişimler yaratmıştır. Sosyal medya pazarlaması, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn vb. sosyal medya siteleri aracılığıyla işletmelerin yaptığı tüm pazarlama faaliyetlerine odaklanmaktadır ve işletmelere marka bağlılığı, marka bilinirliği, satışları arttırma ve en uygun maliyetle daha fazla müşteriye ulaşma gibi birçok fayda sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışma, sosyal medya pazarlamayla ilgili geniş bir kavramsal çerçeve oluşturmaya odaklanmaktadır. Ayrıca çalışma, perakende sektöründe sosyal medya pazarlamasının avantajlarını, zorluklarını ve stratejilerini inceleyerek ilgili pazarlama kararlarını alırken işletme yöneticilerine ve pazarlama uzmanlarına yardımcı olmayı amaçlamaktadır.
