Tavoitteena oli laatia käytännönlähteinen markkinointisuunnitelma, jonka avulla yritys voi kehittää sosiaalisen median toimintaansa erityisesti Instagramissa. Työ toteutettiin toiminnallisena työnä. Aineistoa kerättiin analysoimalla yrityksen nykyisiä sosiaalisen median kanavia ja markkinointimateriaaleja sekä tutkimalla niiden sisältöä. Lisäksi aineistoa täydennettiin teemahaastatteluilla toimeksiantajan kanssa ja kilpailijoiden toiminnan tarkastelulla sekä asiakaskyselyllä. Menetelmien avulla saatiin kokonaiskuva yrityksen nykyisestä markkinoinnin nykytilasta ja kehityskohteista. Tulosten perusteella yrityksen sosiaalisen median markkinointi tavoittaa hyvin nykyiset seuraajat, mutta vuorovaikutuksessa ja sitouttamisessa havaittiin kehitystarpeita. Kilpailija-analyysi osoitti, että säännöllinen ja suunnitelmallinen sisällöntuotanto tukee näkyvyyden kasvua. Kohderyhmä koostui pääosin nuorista ja työssäkäyvistä naisista, jotka arvostavat visuaalista ja helposti lähestyttävää sisältöä. Johtopäätöksenä todettiin, että yrityksen markkinointia voidaan kehittää lisäämällä suunnitelmallisuutta, yhtenäistämällä visuaalista ilmettä sekä lisäämällä säännöllistä ja monipuolista sisältöä sosiaalisen median kanavissa.

Exploring Culinary Culture as a Means of Preserving and Sharing Minority Heritage in Finland’s Food Tourism : Case Study of the Tatar Community in Finland Haikonen, Suzan The objectives of this thesis were to explore how food tourism can support the preservation and visibility of minority cultural and culinary heritage within the Finnish Tatar community, particularly through the example of Pärämäts, a traditional Tatar food with cultural significance within the community. The research was conducted as qualitative research. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with members of the Finnish Tatar community and with experts in food tourism, culinary culture, destination development, and the restaurant industry. The interviews were conducted via Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and email correspondence. The data were analysed using thematic analysis. Findings indicated that limited knowledge and awareness of the Finnish Tatar community are shaped not only by the availability of information but also by how cultural knowledge is communicated and experienced. Storytelling, education, media, and experiential approaches were identified as important ways of increasing understanding and engagement with minority cultures. Food tourism was seen as a meaningful context for enhancing cultural awareness, as it combines experience, learning, and cultural exchange. A recurring theme across the findings was the importance of community-led approaches in the preservation, transmission, and representation of Tatar culinary heritage. Visibility was found to play a key role in awareness and continuity, but it should be guided by the community to ensure respectful and accurate representation. Authenticity was identified as a negotiated and evolving concept, shaped by tradition and adaptation. It was concluded that the Finnish Tatar community represents an important but relatively underrecognized part of Finland’s cultural diversity, which may be related to the community’s self-described low-profile approach. The findings also indicate interest in Tatar culinary traditions, particularly Pärämäts, which was seen as a potential medium for both preserving cultural heritage within the community and increasing the visibility of Tatar culture in wider Finnish society through food tourism.
