71+ Research Paper Topics & Ideas for Marketing Students  

examples of marketing thesis

As a marketing student, you probably have access to a plethora of resources such as your college library and of course, the internet, to come up with great research paper topics.

However, the thought of writing your research paper can be daunting, especially if you’re still brainstorming and don’t know what to write about.

Just like any other piece of writing, start by keeping your audience in mind. Then, make a list of research paper topics that are more relevant to your interests, or a new under-developed field (for example; augmented reality, or people sentiments towards Artificial Intelligence), or a unique research topic that intrigues your audience.

But if you’re still struggling to pin down one out of the many research paper topics for your program, we’ll suggest a number of them for you to either choose from; or for you to take inspiration from and come up with your own.

Table of Contents

How to Choose the Best Research Paper Topics

Before we dive into the details, you’ll have to familiarize yourself with the basics. For starters, pick up a pen and paper and brainstorm different topics that you’d like to write about.

While personal interest is definitely important, we also suggest you opt for a topic that will intrigue your readers.  Here are a couple of factors you ought to keep in mind while selecting a topic:

Keeping your personal interest in mind

You probably won’t be able to write a stellar research paper if you’re not interested in the topic. Sit down with your peers and advisors to discuss possible ideas. It will be easier for you to discuss different themes once you’ve written down all your ideas in one place. If you’ve decided on a specific keyword for instance “consumer behaviour”, you can look for similar research papers on the internet.

A research paper isn’t a descriptive essay which you can drag aimlessly. Your research paper needs to be based on factual data and that’s only possible if you’ve conducted thorough research. While jotting down points for your first draft, ensure your statements are supported with references or examples citing credible academicals and research work.

Don’t leave it till the last day

A lot of students tend to undermine the writing process and leave for the last few days. Bear in mind that you can’t possibly write your entire research paper overnight. In order to succeed, you’ll have to devote sufficient amount of time to research.

Also, be prepared to schedule meetings with your advisor on a regular basis as you’re bound to require help along the way. At this point, make sure you only rely on credible sources that will support your dissertation.

Examples & List of Research Paper Topics

If you’re still unable to decide a topic of your interest, here is a list of 70 unique marketing research topics that you can use as marketing project topics for your MBA, or any other marketing course:

  • How do organizations use CSR ( corporate social responsibility ) to reinforce brand equity?

Gender differences in purchase behavior are a hot topic in marketing research. It turns out, men and women often have distinct approaches to buying, influenced by a variety of factors including emotions, practicality, and even societal expectations.

For instance, studies have shown that women are more likely to engage in hedonistic shopping, seeking pleasure and entertainment, while men tend to focus on the functionality and efficiency of their purchases. This isn't just about who prefers shopping for shoes over power tools; it's about understanding the underlying motivations that drive purchase decisions.

  • Women are more likely to be influenced by social media trends.
  • Men often prioritize product specifications and quality.
  • Both genders value price, but may weigh it differently against other factors.

Recognizing these differences can be crucial for businesses aiming to target their marketing strategies effectively. If you're diving into a thesis on this subject, consider exploring how gender impacts consumer preferences and decision-making styles . You'll find a wealth of information, from academic writing guides to interview studies, that can help you craft a compelling argument or uncover new insights into consumer behavior.

3. Impulse Buying and Effective Advertising

The green movement has been expanding rapidly in the world. With regards to this consumers are taking responsibility and doing the correct things. Consumer awareness and motivation continue to drive change in the marketplace, notably through the introduction of more eco-friendly products. Compared to consumers in the developed countries, the Indian consumer has much less aware of environmental issues like global warming. Successful marketing has always been about recognizing trends and positioning products, services and brand in a manner that supports buyer intentions. Today, many companies have accepted their responsibility to protect our environment. So, products and production process become cleaner. More companies introduce green products and it helps to change the polluted world. " Go green " , because they realize that they can reduce pollution and increase profits at the same time. Green marketing is a creative opportunity to innovate in ways that make a difference and at the same time achieve business success.

Purpose – The green marketing concept emerged in the late 1980s, and many hotels have since implemented a variety of green marketing strategies, such as the use of the " green hotel " label to project a green image and attract potential customers. However, some companies that have launched environment-based promotions have been accused of " green washing " by their customers. This study aims to investigate the gap between hotel manager and customer perceptions of the relative importance of green marketing-related activities. Design/methodology/approach – Two sets of 30-statement questionnaires designed for hotel managers and customers were used to gauge respondents' perceptions of a variety of hotel green marketing-related activities. Independent samples t-tests and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to examine the significant differences between the ways in which hotel managers and customers rate the importance of these activities. Findings – The two statements that gained the highest level of agreement amongst both hotel managers and customers were: " The internet is an effective channel for marketing a hotel's green initiatives directly to customers " ; and " Green hotels can elevate industry members' image and reputation to attract green tourists who demand green accommodation when travelling ". Both also perceived: " The environmental claims in advertisements are often met with criticism from competitors and consumer organisations " ; " Hotel customers are willing to pay a higher price for eco-facilities " ; and " Customers are willing to pay a higher green price if part of the amount paid is donated to green activities " to be the three least important statements. The results also indicated ten over-perceptions and three under-perceptions amongst hotel managers, thus implying that they may require a better understanding of customer expectations. Several demographic differences were also identified. Female hotel managers and customers were found to be more concerned with green hotel products and a green image; hotel managers aged over 59 were found to have reservations about certain green marketing strategies probably because of service quality issues, although green supporters are in general older than average; younger customers aged between 20-29 become more concerned about environmental issues; and customers with a Master degree level of education or above challenged whether hotels are truly innovative in their development of green products and services and had reservations about the use of eco-labels. Research limitations/implications – The results of this study may not reflect the full picture of managerial perceptions of green hotel marketing, as the sample was restricted to hotels on the Hong Kong Hotels Association list. Researchers may thus wish to undertake further studies with larger hotel samples over a longer time period in future. Drawing on the foundations laid by this study, future researchers may also wish to investigate smaller, lower-ranked hotels, which may experience greater challenges in implementing green marketing strategies than those considered here. Originality/value – Few studies to date have investigated green hotel marketing. The findings of this study can be viewed as a preliminary step towards greater understanding of green hotel marketing-related activities.

The aim of this research is to explore the influence of green marketing mix on customer satisfaction. The data was collected through survey questionnaire using 5 point Likert scale from the sample of 230, but 203 useable responses were received. The data was analyzed in SPSS 22. Correlation and regression tests were applied to get the results. The findings indicted the green marketing mix and its dimensions are significantly and positively correlated to customer satisfaction. It also indicated that green marketing mix is very strong predictor of customer satisfaction. Green environment is the need of today’s era so the research highlights that the customer satisfaction can be achieved using green marketing mix. As the concept of green marketing is still emerging, we will recommend more similar studies with larger and different population. We will also recommend this study in the presence of moderating variables like gender, age, income.

For many who did not grow up with this technology, its effects seem alarming and potentially harmful. This concern, while understandable, is misguided. The negatives of internet use are outweighed by its many benefits for education: the internet facilitates easier access to information, exposure to different perspectives, and a flexible learning environment for both students and teachers.

You should come up with an initial thesis, sometimes called a working thesis , early in the writing process . As soon as you’ve decided on your essay topic , you need to work out what you want to say about it—a clear thesis will give your essay direction and structure.

You might already have a question in your assignment, but if not, try to come up with your own. What would you like to find out or decide about your topic?

For example, you might ask:

After some initial research, you can formulate a tentative answer to this question. At this stage it can be simple, and it should guide the research process and writing process .

Now you need to consider why this is your answer and how you will convince your reader to agree with you. As you read more about your topic and begin writing, your answer should get more detailed.

In your essay about the internet and education, the thesis states your position and sketches out the key arguments you’ll use to support it.

The negatives of internet use are outweighed by its many benefits for education because it facilitates easier access to information.

In your essay about braille, the thesis statement summarizes the key historical development that you’ll explain.

The invention of braille in the 19th century transformed the lives of blind people, allowing them to participate more actively in public life.

A strong thesis statement should tell the reader:

  • Why you hold this position
  • What they’ll learn from your essay
  • The key points of your argument or narrative

The final thesis statement doesn’t just state your position, but summarizes your overall argument or the entire topic you’re going to explain. To strengthen a weak thesis statement, it can help to consider the broader context of your topic.

These examples are more specific and show that you’ll explore your topic in depth.

Your thesis statement should match the goals of your essay, which vary depending on the type of essay you’re writing:

  • In an argumentative essay , your thesis statement should take a strong position. Your aim in the essay is to convince your reader of this thesis based on evidence and logical reasoning.
  • In an expository essay , you’ll aim to explain the facts of a topic or process. Your thesis statement doesn’t have to include a strong opinion in this case, but it should clearly state the central point you want to make, and mention the key elements you’ll explain.

A thesis statement is a sentence that sums up the central point of your paper or essay . Everything else you write should relate to this key idea.

The thesis statement is essential in any academic essay or research paper for two main reasons:

  • It gives your writing direction and focus.
  • It gives the reader a concise summary of your main point.

Without a clear thesis statement, an essay can end up rambling and unfocused, leaving your reader unsure of exactly what you want to say.

Follow these four steps to come up with a thesis statement :

  • Ask a question about your topic .
  • Write your initial answer.
  • Develop your answer by including reasons.
  • Refine your answer, adding more detail and nuance.

The thesis statement should be placed at the end of your essay introduction .
