Abstract
流行音樂產業受到盜版音樂與網路免費分享的影響，導致產值嚴重下滑，終於在2012年見到一線曙光。主要原因是數位音樂銷售及其他收入來源的上升，彌補實體專輯銷售的損失，產業的收入來源也開始呈現多元化的現象。在市場結構開始變化的時刻，流行歌手Lady Gaga掌握了機會，除了唱片專輯銷售的收益之外，她還將事業版圖擴展到藝人週邊商品、廣告代言、品牌跨業合作等，發揮綜效，開創出成功的商業模式。本研究以Lady Gaga作品在臺灣發展作為研究對象，藉由整合行銷傳播理論分析其成功之道。
研究者首先針對搜集到有關Lady Gaga、流行音樂現況、整合行銷傳播策略應用等資料進行文獻探討，以了解相關理論背景。接著針對Lady Gaga的三張唱片專輯進行文本分析，爬梳其專輯作品意涵。同時擬定半結構式訪談問題，與她所屬環球音樂集團行銷人員、媒體記者、臺灣流行音樂產業人員進行深度訪談，以瞭解其相關實務觀點。最後再輔以文獻，相互印證，以深入瞭解Lady Gaga整合行銷傳播策略的操作方式與其背後的意義。
結果發現，Lady Gaga的專輯作品大致可歸類為三種意涵，分別為「男女的情慾與權力結構」、「捍衛社會邊緣族群」、以及「對名利與媒體的反思」。其整合行銷傳播策略主要為「兼具全球化與全球在地化形象」、「直接與消費者溝通」、「善用新科技」、「鎖定目標消費群眾」等特色，其相關行銷業者藉此創造出Lady Gaga唱片專輯亮眼的銷售數據，同時享有高知名度以及方興未艾的影響力。。研究者最後提出三點建議，包括「建立消費者資料庫概念」、「以品牌方式經營藝人」、「落實綜合成效評估」等。期盼本研究能作為流行音樂產業制定策略時的參考，並對後續相關研究有所貢獻。
