This paper aims to analyze whether the application of the nudge theory, by Richard H. Thaler and Cass R. Sunstein, can be an effective marketing strategy to increase the level of engagement of a platform, in this case it is the Regional Committee C.S.A.In. Lombardy’s web site. The theory of nudge consists in the presentation of choices and the design of the context of choice, in order to condition the behavior of individuals in a predictable but not exclusive way, by helping them make the decisions they would have made if they had full information and unlimited cognitive abilities. In order to answer the search question, 4 pages of the website of the object of analysis were modified, according to the characteristics of the contents, by using the following nudges: labels, product badges, reviews, suggestions, smart notifications and exit-intent overlays. The evaluation of effectiveness was carried out by comparing the traffic site over two periods of 20 days each, in order to have a comparison before and after the application of the techniques. The general and specific analysis allowed to understand how the application of these techniques have affected the behavior of individuals.
Il presente elaborato intende analizzare se l’applicazione della teoria dei nudge, di Richard H. Thaler e Cass R. Sunstein, possa essere una strategia di marketing efficace per incrementare il livello di coinvolgimento di una piattaforma, in questo caso quella del Comitato Regionale C.S.A.In. Lombardia. La teoria del nudge consiste nella presentazione delle scelte e nella progettazione del contesto di scelta, in modo tale da condizionare il comportamento degli individui in maniera prevedibile ma non esclusiva, aiutandoli a prendere le decisioni che avrebbero preso se avessero posseduto informazioni complete e capacità cognitive illimitate. Per poter rispondere alla domanda di ricerca, sono stati rielaborati 4 contenuti del sito web dell’oggetto di analisi e sono stati applicati, in base alle caratteristiche dei contenuti, i seguenti nudge: etichette, product badges, recensioni, suggerimenti, notifiche intelligenti ed exit-intent overlays. La valutazione dell’efficacia è stata effettuata tramite il confronto dei dati relativi al traffico web ottenuti, attraverso Google Analytics, su due periodi temporali di 20 giorni ciascuno, in modo tale da avere un confronto prima e dopo l'applicazione delle tecniche. L’analisi generale e specifica di ogni contenuto rielaborato ha permesso di comprendere come l’applicazione di tali tecniche abbiano influito sul comportamento degli individui.

Abstract
This paper aims to analyze whether the application of the nudge theory, by Richard H. Thaler and Cass R. Sunstein, can be an effective marketing strategy to increase the level of engagement of a platform, in this case it is the Regional Committee C.S.A.In. Lombardy’s web site. The theory of nudge consists in the presentation of choices and the design of the context of choice, in order to condition the behavior of individuals in a predictable but not exclusive way, by helping them make the decisions they would have made if they had full information and unlimited cognitive abilities. In order to answer the search question, 4 pages of the website of the object of analysis were modified, according to the characteristics of the contents, by using the following nudges: labels, product badges, reviews, suggestions, smart notifications and exit-intent overlays. The evaluation of effectiveness was carried out by comparing the traffic site over two periods of 20 days each, in order to have a comparison before and after the application of the techniques. The general and specific analysis allowed to understand how the application of these techniques have affected the behavior of individuals.È consentito all'utente scaricare e condividere i documenti disponibili a testo pieno in UNITESI UNIPV nel rispetto della licenza Creative Commons del tipo CC BY NC ND.
