Detailed description increases transparency of the product and helps in gaining consumer
satisfaction (Iblasi et al. 2016). On the other hand, in this video from 13:30 - 25:25, it was
seen that the CEO has used different phrases for pleasing customers. This has increased its

engagement with the product and brand. As stated by Arekar et al. (2019), companies must
conduct the process of impression management through presentation of product features and
company activities. Apple has adopted the same strategy of impression management and they
have given full effort in describing their products that can help in managing their impression
upon customers.
Ritual theory also characterizes traditionalism, which considers ritual as traditions (Effing
and Spil, 2016). Tradition is also described in the launching event of apple in 2017. During
00:00-13:10, the CEO of this multinational organization has talked about their past success
and service that they have provided to the customers. In addition, he has also described the
values that apple provides to its customers. Different past products and their success are
discussed through pictorial representation. As mentioned by Yoo et al. (2016), a description
of past success can help to gain attention of customers and help them to conduct performance
reviews of a firm. This description of past has helped apple to present the rich tradition of this
company to provide best quality products to the customers. Hence, consumers can analyze
the value that they have achieved from this company. This, in turn, can help them to develop
trust in this firm and its products. Moreover, Jamali and Khan (2018) stated that rituals appeal
to tradition that repeats historical precedents. Hence, describing the pest success stories can
provide an idea to the audience regarding the current product. They can assume that the
current product will provide the same value as they have achieved in the past.
In the launching video of 2018, Apple CEO has maintained a formal style of representation of
the newly launched product, He has used several phrases that can please customers and
increase their engagement by gaining attention. This is done by discussion about specific
features of iPhone like home court to the customers. During 59:20 - 70:23 of the video
different features of home court has been described that can help to please customers by
increasing their gaming experience. Moreover, justification of the price of this product is
given by discussing the benefit that consumers will achieve upon purchasing this product.
Formalism is also a character of ritual theory that forces people to adopt a formal style of
presentation (Kedzior et al. 2016). Rituals are limited by a set of expressions that are also
recognized as restricted codes (Jeong et al. 2017). The speaker has adopted formal oratorical
style that includes thanking the major contributors and partners, describing expectations of
customers first and discussion of features that can help to fulfill consumer expectations. This
has helped in engaging consumers and ability of understanding has also increased. The

companies have described their products by presenting innovative features. However, Apple
has provided a well-designed introduction and closing of the event that has increased
attraction of target audience. Other firms have maintained a rule book while campaigning and
launching new products. However, Apple has reached the outer limits and included some
items that are beyond the limits. This includes evaluation of partners contribution, previous

effectively through these videos apart from description of brand and products. Hence, it can
be said that social media channels like YouTube play an effective role to facilitate different
organizational strategies.

people. Invariance is another characteristic that has been mentioned in the ritual theory. It
postulates about the steady perception of customers towards products of their choice. As
mentioned by Bucatariu et al.(2017), new-age customers are tech-savvy and most of them
prefer to compare prices and features of products from different brands online. It is now
important to promote social cohesion sense or reinforcing social belief. In case of mobile,
customers prefer existing models for their features and they believe that these qualities are the
most beneficial for them (Jackson, 2016). The data analysis part has revealed that
organizational head of Huawei are comparing previous products with their new launch
product for making the audience feel the difference. As stated by Dwivedi, Kapoor, and Chen
(2015), this approach of companies may reinforce the existing ritual among potential
customers. On the other hand, it has been found that the CEO of Apple has mentioned only
about innovative features of their new product. These two different approaches have been
taken to achieve the goal of reinforcing the present ritual.
The term ritual can be characterized as formalism. As stated by Chapple and Cownie (2017),
adhering to formal way of communicating makes people more acceptable by the audience.
This viewpoint has been mentioned in the literature review portion of this research and it has
been found in the findings as well. This study has noted that the CEOs of chosen
organizations have considered oratorical formal process of communicating with their
audience. The Head of Apple has gone beyond formal talking and took different approaches
to make the event more attractive. For example, thanksgiving to staff and other stakeholders
has been done differently by the CEO of Apple and it can make people feel connected with
the values of this company. As opined by Schwemmer and Ziewiecki (2018), rule governance
is another viewpoint to define ritual. Here, the rule must be for describing the unique features
of new products. As per the literature review section, maintaining rule make the event more
reliable to audience. However, it has been found that the CEO of Huawei was limited to their
rules. Beyond rules, he has compared their new product with a similar product from another
rival brand. It may negatively affect their customer base as most of the customers dislike this
kind of comparison.

The literature review section has explored the ritual theory and has mentioned that the term
ritual can be defined as characterized by performance. According to Rugova and Prenaj
(2016), organization uses the record of their previous performance to make people believe in
them. On the other hand, it can be stated that organizations must focus on the quality of their
product for ensuring their long term performance. This fact has been found in the findings of
this research project. After evaluation of the product launching video of these companies, a
common fact has been found. All of the heads of these companies were talking about their
past performances. They were describing specific features of their new products to make
people believe in their future performance. As opined by Mahajan (2018), demonstration was
one of the processes to provide a clear overview of the potentiality of the new product.

5.6 Limitation of the study
Researchers have given full effort in accomplishing the desired aims and objectives of this
research. However, there are some limitations in the study that creates scope for future
research. The researchers have collected various types of information but the main focus has
been given on YouTube. Different other social media strategies also play an effective role in
marketing strategies of an organization. However, these channels are ignored in this research.
Moreover, the cross-sectional study of different other companies who are selling the same
products can be included. This can help to analyze the subject in a broader way. However,
only two companies are selected for this purpose. These limitations can be mitigated in future
studies that can help to gain in-depth knowledge about the subject area.
5.7 Possible areas of improvement
This research project could be designed differently for achieving a more accurate result. In
this case, product launching video of top three mobile manufacturers has been analyzed. This
process could be replaced by an interview process for collecting data. Interview of managers
of these companies may help to understand practical experience of these companies regarding
using YouTube to launch a new product. More perspectives could be explored that could help
in understanding the role of YouTube in affecting marketing strategies of these companies.
As suggested by Lobato (2016), different networking ability of YouTube could be explored
to understand its effect on promotions of products. However, this process may consume more
time and budget than the present method.
5.8 Directions for future research
Based on the outcome of this research, future researchers may conduct more prolonged
research. They may focus on other social media channels for understanding their importance
in marketing. For example, Facebook marketing is very common and its contribution to

business can be a topic of research. Considering the method of this study, future researchers
may critically evaluate other forms of social media marketing including posts, blogs, and e-
posters. Other organizations from different sectors are taking initiatives to integrate social
media in their business. Cross-sectional analysis of those organizations can be performed in
future research. This approach may help in understanding the impact of social media on
marketing strategies of organizations of other industries. This research has taught that
reviewing related theory can help in understanding different approaches related to the
research topic. This understanding can help others to design their research project with the
help of relevant theories, models and principles.

In this section of study, results are discussed in a detailed way. Link of different theories like
ritual theory is established with the achieved results. On the other hand, application of the
results in research proposition is done in this part. This proves authenticity of the achieve
results through video analysis. The results of this research are also linked with aims and
objectives of the study. This proves that the objectives of this study are obtained through data
collection and analysis properly. Limitation of this research has been identified and based on
the result of this study future researchers can design their research to explore other
perspectives related to this topic. This section of discussion can help to draw a proper
