The relationship between brand experience and word-of-mouth in the TV series sector: The moderating effect of culture and gender Rojas Lamorena, Álvaro José Alcántara Pilar, Juan Miguel Rodríguez López, María Eugenia Omni-channel management is an increasingly popular strategy that involves creating multiple forms of contact between brands and customers to maximise interaction and thereby generate global brand experiences, which can constitute a competitive advantage. The television-series sector is no exception to this phenomenon. The aim of the present research is to examine the effect of television- drama-series brand experience on the generation of word-ofmouth communication among viewers. The study analyses the moderating effect of viewers’ gender and culture – specifically, the individualism/collectivism variable proposed by Geert Hofstede, – in the context of series with high vs. low levels of sexual and violent content. The results indicate that these variables exert a moderating effect on the relationship between brand experience and word-of-mouth only in the case of TV drama series with a low level of such content. Women and culturally-individualistic audiences will be more prone to the experience-based generation of word-of-mouth for this type of television series. 2024-09-25T11:55:48Z 2024-09-25T11:55:48Z 2021 journal article https://hdl.handle.net/10481/95100 10.1080/13527266.2021.2011376 eng open access
