Abstract:

Meta-analysis is a method that allows us to accomplish such a work by combining the results of several studies in order to make an objective synthesis following precise stages. With the help of meta-analysis, we can quantify a global result for the entire studies taken into consideration and obtain a more precise response and a more acceptable generalization. This paper focuses on the steps of meta-analysis on resumed data, which are used more frequently, because they can easily tend towards exhaustiveness. The synthesis work has to be standardized. It consists in four stages: studies’ research, selection, data extraction and analysis. Its feasibility is linked to the existence of a sufficient number of studies that can be included in this meta-analysis. This method has been used in research since 1970 and it became irreplaceable for making recommendations. Its application field is only limited to that of existent studies.

Abstract Title: Mobile Broadband: A Market Research Level: Thesis for Master of Business Administration in Marketing Management Address: University of Gävle Department of Business Administration 801 76 Gävle Sweden Telephone (+46) 26 64 85 00 Telefax (+46) 26 64 85 89 Web site http://www.hig.se Author: Hibel Sobbizadeh Supervisor: Maria Fregidou-Malama Date: 2010-01 Aim: This research is performed in order to investigate about Mobile Broadband (MB) market and the evolution of mobile broadband modems in this market. The aim is to find out how the MB market is developing and which MB modems are dominating the market at present and future time. The study describes the history behind the MB market and its present and future state where an increase of “internet connected” devices is almost inevitable. It at the same time discusses how the MB modems are developing from today‟s PC data cards and USB dongles to integrated modules in different devices. Method: The research is based on published and unpublished articles and data found on internet. Different search engines and databases such as Google and Gävle University library-databases are used to find various data. This empirical data is then connected to theory containing Marketing analysis, planning, implementation and control. The analysis 3 part (PEST) gives a picture of the Political, Economic, Social and Technological factors of the MB market, while the planning, implementation and control parts of the work give an overview of the threats and opportunities of the market and the strategies to overcome the problems and embrace the opportunities. Result & Conclusions: The study demonstrates that MB market has potential of becoming a successful market where devices with embedded module will be connected to internet anywhere at anytime. This requires cooperation from all the players in the value chain. The companies that choose and implement the best marketing and value chain cooperation strategies will be leaders of this future market. Suggestion for future research: One of the biggest challenges and limitations during the work of this study due to its newness was to find empirical data about MB market. As the time passes new information and statistics will make it easier for further research. As the technology is developing rapidly it is recommended to use the latest articles and statistics on internet when gathering new research material. Contribution of the thesis: This study contains valuable input to people and organizations who would like to get an overview of the MB and MB modem markets‟ development in the coming years. Key words: Mobile Broadband, PEST analysis, marketing planning, marketing strategy, marketing implementation, marketing control, embedded modules.

Abstract:

In the 21st century, advertising might just be the most powerful weapon a marketer has and a quite efficient one if we think about the way it changed our world. But all that power comes with great responsibility: used accordingly by planning everything in the smallest detail possible it can be the best thing that ever happen to a company even to the local retailers as a medium, used without any kind of strategy it can very well be a large scale disaster. Because of the great costs that advertising is much too often associated with and also the long term affects it has on the consumer a company should never start an advertising campaign without knowing every single last detail concerning their product and consumers.

Abstract:

Estudos sobre o comportamento humano envolvem situações complexas que não são simples de compreender utilizando-se métodos quantitativos de pesquisa. A identificação desta limitação levou, em anos mais recentes, ao uso crescente de métodos qualitativos para auxiliar a entender o indivíduo e o grupo em seus comportamentos. Em administração e marketing pesquisadores com trabalhos qualitativos têm se baseado em métodos e técnicas mais adequados para a abordagem destes problemas com origens em sociologia, antropologia e psicologia. A etnografia originada na antropologia e sociologia com estudos de comportamento de grupo é um instrumento bastante adequado para estudos em marketing. Este estudo discute a criação e desenvolvimento da etnografia como metodologia de pesquisa em antropologia e mostra como seu uso foi estendido para outras áreas do conhecimento, mais especificamente para a área de marketing. É destacada a evolução da etnografia no universo da pesquisa acadêmica e aplicada, e como a metodologia foi adaptada para realização de estudos na área do comportamento do consumidor, tanto acadêmicos quanto de mercado. O estudo enfoca os usos e limitações da pesquisa etnográfica em marketing. Faz isso em forma de ensaio por meio de levantamento bibliográfico de caráter analítico e descritivo, complementado com entrevistas em profundidade com profissionais que utilizam ou conhecem a metodologia aplicada ao marketing. Conclui-se que sua aplicação em marketing é adequada se houver rigor metodológico, já que esse tipo de pesquisa tem a vantagem de revelar porque os comportamentos relacionados a um dado grupo ocorrem, o que não é possível com outras abordagens de pesquisa. A metodologia apresenta maiores benefícios quando o comportamento de consumo estudado relaciona-se fortemente com características culturais do grupo ao qual o consumidor pertence.
Consumer behavior studies entail complex situations that are not simple to understand by quantitative research techniques. Recently there is an enhancement in the use of qualitative methods to help interpret the individual and the group in their behaviors. In business and marketing researchers with qualitative work are increasingly using techniques, and methods that are common in sociology, anthropology, and psychology which have suitable developments to these areas of knowledge. Ethnography originated from anthropology and sociology with group approaches seems to be a good tool to marketing studies. This work discusses how ethnography was originated and developed as a research methodology in anthropology and to show how its use was extended to other areas of knowledge, specifically in marketing. The evolution of ethnography in the academic and applied research universes is emphasized, as well as how the methodology was adapted to be used in consumer behavior studies. The study focus on the uses and limitations of ethnographic research in marketing. This is made by an essay based on analytical and descriptive bibliographic research, complemented by in depth interviews with professionals that use or know the methodology applied to marketing. The conclusion is that the method is adequate in marketing research if applied with methodological rigor. This kind of research has the advantage of revealing why some behaviors related to the reference group occur, what is not possible with other research approaches. The methodology presents more benefits when the consumer behavior is strongly related with cultural characteristics of the group that the consumer belongs.

Full text

Abstract:

Recent loosening of legal restrictions on cannabis and its chemical constituents, including phytocannabinoids such as Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), has led to rapid proliferation and wide availability of products containing CBD. Although using pure CBD does not result in THC-like intoxication, it is not risk-free. In this review, we examine CBD from scientific, marketing, and regulatory perspectives. Specifically, we evaluate the evidence used to support statements concerning CBD’s real and putative medical effects and discuss misleading information that has been used in marketing approaches. Also, we explore the current legal landscape surrounding CBD. We conclude that further research is necessary to clarify legitimate therapeutic effects of CBD. Federal regulation is also necessary to assure quality, safety, and efficacy of CBD products. Until new regulations are enacted to ensure purity and label accuracy, consumers should balance any perceived benefits of CBD use against potential risks associated with using products of unknown quality.

Job training programs for firm managers or entrepreneurs are effective at increasing firm productivity, profits, and firm survival rates. Training skills in human resources, soft skills, marketing, and finance-accounting are most likely to improve firm performance. The impact was maximized when delivering training sessions for entrepreneurs and managers in the manufacturing and services sector. The key is to design training programs tailored to different participant groups, based on the demand in their respective industry and business contexts.

Full text

Abstract:

Specific Research Objective. Develop a theory of technology adoption to analyze the role of promotional tools such as advertising, product sampling, demonstrations, money back guarantees and warranties in inducing technological change. Use this theory to develop criteria for assessing the optimal use of marketing activities in launching new agricultural input technologies. Apply the model to analyze existing patterns of marketing budget allocation among promotional tools for various agricultural input industries in the United States and Israel. Background to the Topic. Marketing tools (money-back guarantees [MBG] demonstration, free sampling and advertising) are used extensively to induce the adoption of agricultural inputs, but there is little understanding of their impacts on the diffusion of new technologies. The agricultural economic literature on technology adoption ignores marketing efforts by the private sector, which may result in misleading extension and technology transfer policies. There is a need to integrate marketing and economic approaches in analyzing technology adoption, especially in the area of agricultural inputs. Major Conclusion. Marketing tools play an important role in reducing uncertainties about product performance. They assist potential buyers to learn both about objective features, about a product, and about product fit to the buyer's need. Tools, such as MBGs and demonstration, provide different information about product fit but also require different degrees of cost for the consumer. In some situations they can be complimentary and optimal strategy combines the use of both. In other situations there will be substitution. Sampling is used to reduce the uncertainty about non-durable goods. An optimal level of informational tools declines throughout the life of a product but stays positive at a steady state. Implications. Recognizing the heterogeneity of consumers and the sources of their uncertainty about new technologies is crucial to develop a marketing strategy that will enhance the adoption of innovation. When fit uncertainty is high, allowing an MBG option, as well as a demonstration, may be an optimal strategy to enhance adoption.

In Israel, poor performance of some marketing institutions has led to radical reforms. Examples are the two leading export industries - citrus and flowers. In the U.S., growth of local market power is eliminating competitive row product prices which served as the basis for farmer cooperative payment plans. This research studies, theoretically, several aspects of the above problem and develops empirical methods to assess their relative importance. The theoretical part deals with two related aspects of the operation of processing and marketing firms. The first is the technological structure of these firms. To this end, we formalize a detailed theory that describes the production process itself and the firm's decision. The model accounts for multiple products and product characteristics. The usefulness of the theory for measurement of productivity and pricing of raw material is demonstrated. The second aspect of the processing and marketing firm that we study is unique to the agricultural sector, where many such firms are cooperatives. In such cooperative an efficient and fair mechanism for purchasing raw materials from members is crucial to successful performances of the firm. We focus on: 1) pricing of raw materials. 2) comparison of employment of quota and price regimes by the cooperative to regulate the quantities, supplied by members. We take into consideration that the cooperative management is subject to pressure from member farmers. 3) Tier pricing for raw materials in order to ensure efficiency and zero profits at the cooperative level. This problem is examined in both closed and open cooperatives. The empirical part focuses in: 1) the development of methodologies for estimating demand for differentiated products; 2) assessing farmers response to component pricing; 3) measurement of potential and actual exploitation of market power by an agricultural marketing firm. The usefulness of the developed methodologies are demonstrated by several application to agricultural sub-sectors, including: U.S. dairy industry, Oregon wine industry, Israeli Cotton industry and Israeli Citrus industry.
