| channel configuration in marketing: Marketing channel strategy for consumer goods Sandra Burgemeister, 2003-02-05 Seminar paper from the year 2003 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 95%, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne (MBA Programm), course: Strategic Marketing, language: English, abstract: This report is initiated to discuss the various marketing channel strategies for consumer goods. The generic term goods refers to products as well as services. The paper is divided into part A and part B. Part A explains and discusses the general meaning of key concepts of marketing channel selection, and thus builds the foundation for part B. Part B applies the theoretical concepts to a real life company, Omkafe, and its international marketing channel selection process. The reason for choosing Omkafe, a small sized company based in Italy known for its outstanding coffee, is to demonstrate the differences in distribution patterns among countries and how the rise of the Internet and eBusiness has influenced even small companies like Omkafe. Part A concludes that a company can gain a competitive edge in deciding on an effective distributor or agent. Since there is no one right answer on how to effectively manage the flow from the manufacturer through the distribution channel to the ultimate customer, each company has to make its own decision based on its unique market, producer and product factors. Part B then enforces this conclusion, and also emphasizes the fact that even within a company, different marketing channel selections for different market targets are appropriate and necessary. |
| channel configuration in marketing: Marketing Channel Strategy Robert W. Palmatier, Eugene Sivadas, Louis W. Stern, Adel I. El-Ansary, 2019-07-11 Marketing Channel Strategy: An Omni-Channel Approach is the first book on the market to offer a completely unique, updated approach to channel marketing. Palmatier and Sivadas have adapted this classic text for the modern marketing reality by building a model that shows students how to engage customers across multiple marketing channels simultaneously and seamlessly. The omni-channel is different from the multi-channel. It recognizes not only that customers access goods and services in multiple ways, but also that they are likely doing this at the same time; comparing prices on multiple websites, and seamlessly switching between mobile and desktop devices. With the strong theoretical foundation that users have come to expect, the book also offers lots of practical exercises and applications to help students understand how to design and implement omni-channel strategies in reality. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students in marketing channels, distribution channels, B2B marketing, and retailing classes will enjoy acquiring the most cutting-edge marketing skills from this book. A full set of PowerPoint slides accompany this new edition, to support instructors. |

| channel configuration in marketing: Toward Cross-Channel Management Thomas Rudolph, Felix Brunner, 2014-12-16 New digital devices enable consumers to ubiquitously access the Internet and inspire them to switch between online and offline channels when shopping – a phenomenon extant research on consumer behavior terms cross-channel shopping. This considerable change in consumer behavior offers great potential for retailers worldwide to strengthen their competitiveness. Today, retail incumbents aspire to integrate their channels to offer compelling switching opportunities among all online and offline channels – an approach we coin cross-channel management. However, addressing cross-channel shoppers may entail a rise in business model complexity which can only be tackled by installing a firm-wide strategic change process. Set against this transformative background, this book offers insight into how firms can overcome said inertia and successfully transform their current channel specific business model to a much more integrated system of online and offline channels. With the help of 71 interviews with top and middle managers in retailing, this book derives a variety of recommendations in the field of cross-channel management for retailers and manufacturers. |

| channel configuration in marketing: Digitalization and Asia-Pacific Business Models Tachia Chin, Chris Rowley, Shouyang Wang, 2023-02-21 Owing to the convergence of multiple cultures coupled with the unprecedented rapid development in the decades since the late 1990s, the value creation and innovation logic of Asia-Pacific business models (BMs) has been constantly altered by cultural heterogeneity. As a result, a more complex and diverse landscape relative to Western developed economy BMs evolved. Moreover, the digitalization has fundamentally changed the way people do business, which has promoted a new wave of BM evolution. Unlike a typical linear mode of innovation driven by market demands in many Western cultures, a large number of entrepreneurial enterprises from the Asia-Pacific with eastern religions and philosophies have tended to adopt unconventional, culturally grounded strategies of value creation and innovation in their BMs. However, it is difficult to find a Western equivalent to the value-creating route that embodies the humanitarian spirit of Confucianism accommodating simultaneously social and economic values to accelerate innovation during internationalization in existing literatures. This book offers a more holistic picture and contemporary interpretation for identifying and characterizing the unorthodox innovation patterns and the perplexing value-creating logic of Asia-Pacific BMs at the crossroads of diverse cultures. It was originally published as a special issue of the Asia Pacific Business Review. This book is supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 72272136; 71988101). |

Multilatinas uncovers common strategies among sixty-two multilatinas from six countries, and emphasizes the unique challenges they face, as well as the diversity of their organizational resources. It also brings the institutional environment of Latin American countries to the fore, assessing its role as an essential component in understanding internationalization decisions. Finally, the book studies the role of non-market organizational resources such as bribes, negotiations and favours in business strategies. Multilatinas is an invaluable read for students, scholars, practitioners and executives studying Latin America's place in international business. |
