This study focuses on an emerging brand case in Taiwan’s children’s health supplement market—Dong Jie Biomedical and its child growth nutrition product, “JellyGO.” In recent years, the global pediatric nutritional supplement market has continued to expand, with projections indicating it will exceed USD 25.5 billion by 2025, particularly with significant growth in the Asia-Pacific region (Euromonitor International, 2023). Despite Taiwan’s declining birth rate and record-low number of newborns (Department of Household Registration, Ministry of the Interior, 2023), parental investment in children’s health remains robust. The infant health supplement market in Taiwan has grown nearly 30% against this demographic trend (Department of Commerce, Ministry of Economic Affairs, 2024). Against this backdrop, Dong Jie Biomedical has emerged through innovation in both product development and marketing strategies. The company introduced Taiwan’s first child growth nutrition jelly, transforming traditionally hard-to-swallow supplements into fruit-flavored, high-absorption gelatinous jellies. This product has been used in pediatric growth clinics, accumulating clinical experience from tens of thousands of users. Additionally, Dong Jie Biomedical created the brand mascot “Gao Xiao-Jie,” which is actively utilized in marketing communications. The mascot engages consumers through anthropomorphic interaction, enhancing brand affinity and recognition (Chen, 2022). With the advent of the digital marketing era, consumer behavior has shifted dramatically, and the market is increasingly driven by consumer- centric models (Kotler & Keller, 2016). This study aims to explore how Dong Jie Biomedical integrates brand mascot strategy and digital marketing with its internal talent development—specifically through its trained growth management consultants—to adapt to changes in consumer behavior and enhance brand value. Employing case study and content analysis methodologies, the research collects and analyzes Dong Jie Biomedical’s marketing content and consumer feedback. The goal is to gain a deep understanding of how brand mascots influence consumer engagement and brand management in digital marketing contexts. The findings are expected to enrich academic knowledge on the interplay between digital marketing and brand mascots, while also offering practical insights for the marketing of pediatric health supplements. The main contribution of this study lies in addressing the lack of empirical case research in Taiwan and demonstrating how businesses innovate their marketing approaches to strengthen consumer connections in the era of digitalization and declining birth rates. By conducting an in-depth analysis of the Dong Jie Biomedical brand case, this paper aims to offer valuable insights for both academic research and practical applications.參考文獻 參考文獻 (中文) 內政部統計處(2023)。《中華民國112年人口統計年報》。https://www.moi.gov.tw/stat 經濟部商業司(2024)。《台灣保健食品市場概況報告》。https://gcis.nat.gov.tw 陳美君(2022)。〈數位行銷時代品牌吉祥物的角色與策略分析〉。《行銷與流通學刊》,29(2),45–68。 KANTAR(2023)。《2023台灣嬰幼兒市場趨勢報告:出生數下降,父母支出不減反增》。凱度消費者指數。https://www.kantarworldpanel.com/tw/news/2023-baby-market-trends Lin, Y.

Despite Taiwan’s declining birth rate and record-low number of newborns (Department of Household Registration, Ministry of the Interior, 2023), parental investment in children’s health remains robust. The infant health supplement market in Taiwan has grown nearly 30% against this demographic trend (Department of Commerce, Ministry of Economic Affairs, 2024). Against this backdrop, Dong Jie Biomedical has emerged through innovation in both product development and marketing strategies. The company introduced Taiwan’s first child growth nutrition jelly, transforming traditionally hard-to-swallow supplements into fruit-flavored, high-absorption gelatinous jellies. This product has been used in pediatric growth clinics, accumulating clinical experience from tens of thousands of users. Additionally, Dong Jie Biomedical created the brand mascot “Gao Xiao-Jie,” which is actively utilized in marketing communications. The mascot engages consumers through anthropomorphic interaction, enhancing brand affinity and recognition (Chen, 2022). With the advent of the digital marketing era, consumer behavior has shifted dramatically, and the market is increasingly driven by consumer- centric models (Kotler & Keller, 2016). This study aims to explore how Dong Jie Biomedical integrates brand mascot strategy and digital marketing with its internal talent development—specifically through its trained growth management consultants—to adapt to changes in consumer behavior and enhance brand value. Employing case study and content analysis methodologies, the research collects and analyzes Dong Jie Biomedical’s marketing content and consumer feedback. The goal is to gain a deep understanding of how brand mascots influence consumer engagement and brand management in digital marketing contexts. The findings are expected to enrich academic knowledge on the interplay between digital marketing and brand mascots, while also offering practical insights for the marketing of pediatric health supplements. The main contribution of this study lies in addressing the lack of empirical case research in Taiwan and demonstrating how businesses innovate their marketing approaches to strengthen consumer connections in the era of digitalization and declining birth rates. By conducting an in-depth analysis of the Dong Jie Biomedical brand case, this paper aims to offer valuable insights for both academic research and practical applications. en_US dc.description.tableofcontents 致謝 i 摘要 ii Abstract iv 目次 vi 第一章 緒論 1 第一節 背景與動機 1 第二節 研究目的、研究問題 4 第三節 研究方法 7 第四節 研究範疇與限制 11 第二章 文獻回顧 16 第一節 品牌形象與品牌識別 16 第二節 品牌吉祥物的定義、類型與演化 18 第三節 品牌吉祥物的功能與心理影響力(品牌傳播、認 知與忠誠) 21 第四節 品牌吉祥物與消費者的情感連結 26 第五節 品牌吉祥物在數位行銷中的應用與實證研究 28 第三章 數位行銷時代的品牌吉祥物策略 32 第一節 數位行銷的興起與發展 32 第二節 社群行銷與品牌吉祥物行銷 33 第三節 品牌吉祥物在數位行銷中的角色與策略 34 第四節 成功案例分析 38 第五節 小結 42 第四章 案例分析——東杰生醫兒童成長產品吉祥物「高小傑」 43 第一節 東杰生醫品牌背景介紹 43 第二節 「高小傑」吉祥物的設計理念與形象塑造 45 第三節 高小傑在數位行銷中的應用策略 47 第四節 小結與未來的建議 54 第五章 研究發現與資料分析 57 第一節 行銷操作:從包裝到代言人格 57 第二節 品牌形象建立:擬人化角色與價值內化 59 第三節 消費者互動:角色及情感連結的橋樑 61 第四節 短影音的應用:從角色包裝到角色驅動內容 63 第五節 KOL的合作:角色與權威信任雙向槓桿 66 第六節 社群經營:角色人格持續經營 69 第七節 銷售成效:品牌認知與實務 71 第六章 結論與建議 74 第一節 研究結論 74 第二節 學術與實務的貢獻 76 第三節 建議 78 第四節 研究限制與未來的展望 80 參考文獻 83 附錄 96 zh_TW dc.format.extent 18346785 bytes - dc.format.mimetype application/pdf - dc.source.uri (資料來源) http://thesis.lib.nccu.edu.tw/record/#G0108932182 en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) 東杰生醫 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 傑立高Jellygo zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 品牌吉祥物 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 數位行銷 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 兒童保健食品 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 消費者行為 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 個案研究 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) Dong Jie Biomedical en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) JellyGO en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Brand mascot en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Digital marketing en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Children’s health supplements en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Consumer behavior en_US dc.title (題名) 數位行銷時代的品牌吉祥物策略 - 以東杰生醫兒童成長產品吉祥物「高小傑」為例 zh_TW dc.title (題名) Brand Mascot Strategies in the Digital Marketing Era: A Case Study of “Gao Xiao Jie” the Brand Mascot of Dong Jie Biomedical’s Children’s Growth Products en_US dc.type (資料類型) thesis en_US dc.relation.reference (參考文獻) 參考文獻 (中文) 內政部統計處(2023)。《中華民國112年人口統計年報》。https://www.moi.gov.tw/stat 經濟部商業司(2024)。《台灣保健食品市場概況報告》。https://gcis.nat.gov.tw 陳美君(2022)。〈數位行銷時代品牌吉祥物的角色與策略分析〉。《行銷與流通學刊》,29(2),45–68。 KANTAR(2023)。《2023台灣嬰幼兒市場趨勢報告:出生數下降,父母支出不減反增》。凱度消費者指數。https://www.kantarworldpanel.com/tw/news/2023-baby-market-trends Lin, Y.
