Abstract In an effort to build long-term, profitable relationships, many companies systematically engage in multichannel relational communication - personalized messages sent to existing customers through various channels as part of a broader relationship marketing strategy. However, too much of a good thing might actually ultimately have a bad effect.Whether ongoing direct communication with customers is perceived positively depends on its volume, the mix of communication channels, and the alignment of those channels with customers’ preferences. There is an ideal level of communication. If it is exceeded, customers react negatively and this negative response can be exacerbated by the use of multiple channels. The ideal level differs depending on individual channel preferences. Aligning channels with customer preferences is advisable to optimize repurchase rates.

Content marketing has become an essential part of any social media marketing strategy. However, the effectiveness of a content marketing strategy through social media will be determined by its alignment with the prevailing communication model. This study aims to analyze the communication model that takes place in the marketing of educational content regarding the health of Indonesian women's skin on Instagram @ hi.flawless and determine the effectiveness of the content marketing based on the communication model that occurs. This study uses a qualitative approach with a netnographic method. Data collection methods are through observation and interviews, while data analysis techniques use data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions analysis methods. This research shows that the communication model that occurs is Schramm's interactional communication model which can then be further developed into a multistep non-linear communication model and advanced web communication. The use of Indonesian women's skin health education as content for marketing on Instagram @ hi.flawless is known to be in line with the prevailing and effective communication model to be implemented, seen from the relatively high level of consumer involvement and the increase in sales that have occurred.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose This study aims to examine the trustworthiness of internet-based quality signals (specifically webpages and before-sale services) from the perspective of interactivity by evaluating the associations between on-line signals of product quality and the off-line perceived quality of actual products. Design/methodology/approach Empirical data are collected from 261 Chinese female university students. Partial least squares structural equation modelling is used to test the conceptual model. Findings Both webpages and before-sale services are positively associated with off-line perceived quality, but only the quality of before-sale service has a direct association with customer satisfaction. Webpages and before-sale services are both trustworthy signals for indicating the quality of physical products; however, these signals provide different levels of trustworthiness. Research limitations/implications The interactivity perspective supplements information-economics theory in examining the trustworthiness of internet-based signals. A signal is a trustworthy indicator only if customers perceive a close relationship between the quality of the signal and the actual product quality. Practical implications On-line sellers should improve the reciprocity and controllability of communications from a buyer’s perspective and should pay more attention to the strategic role of on-line communication for improving customer service. Originality/value Researchers have evaluated the trustworthiness of on-line quality signals from an information-economics perspective. This study extends these previous studies by addressing the perspective of interactivity. Two types of product-quality signals, including webpages and before-sale services, are assessed in terms of their trustworthiness by examining how these signals relate to off-line perceived quality and customer satisfaction.

"The Effectiveness of Marketing Communication and Importance of Its Evaluation in an Online Environment." Sustainability 11, no. 24 (December 9, 2019): 7016. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/su11247016.
Full textAbstract:
Online marketing communication covers a wide area and thus promotes an extensive reach of advertising to a broad audience. Hotels can achieve certain goals through online communication, mainly an increase of hotel awareness; an improvement of their image; and an increase in the level of customer satisfaction and trust, or brand loyalty. Measurement of the effectiveness of communication tools in the online environment is still a challenge, whether in the academic world or in the business world, mainly due to the complexity of this process. The main objective of this paper is to propose a methodology for implementing an indicator suitable for the evaluation of the effectiveness of online communication activities in the Slovak hotel industry. It uses analysis of the current usage of online marketing communication activities from the perspective of hotel service providers. The methodology should be applicable to support decision-making and actively support the sustainable development of hotels. In order to achieve the objective of the paper, the authors conducted a marketing survey focused on online marketing communication by Slovakian hotels to determine their use and to map the current state or methods of evaluating their effectiveness. Results of the research suggest that hotels in Slovakia perceive evaluating marketing communications online as being important, regardless of the size, length of operation, budget, and class of the hotel. They prefer financial metrics because they are a de facto manifestation of the traditional approach towards investment evaluation. The results also showed that return on investment is the most common metric for evaluating the investments of online communication activities, and that respondents expressed the highest level of confidence in this metric as well. In line with the results, we have proposed return on investment (ROI) as the most appropriate metric applicable in evaluation of the effectiveness of online communication tools.

The mobile service landscape is changing quickly as a result of innovations in technology. Due to the emergent nature of the mobile business field, it is still unclear what kind of services will succeed and what will be the driving forces behind their success. In this study the authors identify the critical value elements of mobile advertising, in particular, and mobile services, in general. Moreover, the focus is on small retail firms that find the benefits of mobile advertising highly enticing, at the same time finding the full exploitation of this new communication medium challenging for many reasons. In line with the current understanding of value creation as a cooperative process between the service provider and the customer, the study highlights the perspectives of both advertisers and consumers. Unless both service provider (advertiser in the case of m-advertising) and customer actively engage in the co-creation of the mobile service, value creation will not reach its potential. These results also carry important implications for those managers dealing with mobile advertising and mobile services in general.

Full textAbstract:
The Web 2.0 has changed the basic marketing communication paradigm in that it forces companies to acknowledge that Internet-based consumer-to-consumer communication can be a powerful success driver. Information dissemination, which can enhance the success of on-line and off-line products, is increasingly outside the realm of influence of companies because in many markets on-line communicators can play a central role in influencing others’ purchase decisions. e-Mavens are recognized as a consumer type that engage in on-line communication. Using a sample of more than 2,500 consumers, the authors profile e-Mavens using demographic and psychographic characteristics as well as explore their motives for visiting music web sites. In addition, changes in e-Mavens’ music-related consumption behavior are investigated. Next, using cluster analysis, the authors develop a typology of e-Mavens. Implications for both managerial practice and Web 2.0 research are discussed.

Despite business’s business being business, the business owners have been doing acts of benevolence depending upon the owner’s religion, faith, values and beliefs. Establishment of temples, mosques, churches, schools, hospitals etc. has been usual practice through which firms have shown their concern about the society and made contribution to the social cause. However, of late, it is observed that progressive businesses, after understanding the nuances of sustainable development and its reporting, have moved from philanthropic mode of contributing to society to the concept of Corporate Social Responsibity (CSR). Some of them have gone beyond CSR and have entered the domain of Strategic CSR. In the process, a new concept of Corporate Sustainability, which is based on Triple Bottom-line concept, has emerged in strategic management literature. Thus, today CSR activities are being aligned with the business strategy of the firm. In the developed countries, firms are increasingly integrating CSR with the core business activities e.g. innovation, marketing, finance etc. This article attempts to look into firm’s CSR and corporate sustainability with special reference to a developing country - India.

The use of the Internet now has a specific purpose: to find information. Unfortunately, the amount of data available on the Internet is growing exponentially, creating what can be considered a nearly infinite and ever-evolving network with no discernable structure. This rapid growth has raised the question of how to find the most relevant information. Many different techniques have been introduced to address the information overload, including search engines, Semantic Web, and recommender systems, among others. Recommender systems are computer-based techniques that are used to reduce information overload and recommend products likely to interest a user when given some information about the user’s profile. This technique is mainly used in e-Commerce to suggest items that fit a customer’s purchasing tendencies. The use of recommender systems for e-Government is a research topic that is intended to improve the interaction among public administrations, citizens, and the private sector through reducing information overload on e-Government services. More specifically, e-Democracy aims to increase citizens’ participation in democratic processes through the use of information and communication technologies. In this chapter, an architecture of a recommender system that uses fuzzy clustering methods for e-Elections is introduced. In addition, a comparison with the smartvote system, a Web-based Voting Assistance Application (VAA) used to aid voters in finding the party or candidate that is most in line with their preferences, is presented.

A host of new products and services are now available to more than a half-billion consumers. Firms now have greater opportunities to customize their product/service offerings as well as rely on standardized offerings as a preference. Global firms have the opportunity to customize their advertising and sales promotion messages to specific customer segments without the significant cost once involved in developing numerous messages for numerous markets. This communication segmentation strategy allows firms to achieve real dissemination strategies because of the elimination of wasted audience coverage and better-targeted messages aimed at the core benefits sought by various consumer segments. This is the new business world created by the Internet. As a result of recent technological advances in market entry, many firms are now beginning to increase their marketing and export functions. An emerging part of new technologies development involves electronic transactions over the open network, the Internet. An important Internet characteristic is its global coverage. Using the Internet as an access to the international market, firms generate significant revenues. For example, the music CD distributor CDNow, as a pure on-line company generated 21 percent of its total revenue from international markets in the first quarter of 1998; Dell, a computer manufacturer, generated 20 percent; and FastParts, an electronic components distributor, generated 30 percent. With other numerous examples of generating international revenue on-line, the Internet has already been proven a strategic tool in the exporting process. In this chapter we examine Internet marketing strategy for exporting and possible implications for firms using electronic technologies. The first part of this chapter presents Internet commerce as a specific entry mode to global markets using advanced technologies, represented by the Internet. Part Two introduces a model for Internet exporting strategies utilizing key components in the marketing mix (i.e., product, promotion, place, and price). The focus of this model is on the interaction between Internet commerce activities and software agents, and the potential impact on the exporting process. Applying the model of Internet-based exporting strategy to businesses, Part Three develops a strategic matrix that classifies firms based on the degree of product transferability and their capitalization on Internet technologies in exporting. Particular emphasis is given to the role of software agents in the electronic exporting process at different stages in strategy development. Finally, we summarize the impact of Internet commerce on exporting activities and highlight the benefits of incorporating new technologies into an exporting strategy.

The study presented in this chapter explores the influence of social networks in directing and shaping the supply of, and demand for, healthcare services – specifically systems and therapies for the treatment and rehabilitation of mental disorders. For this purpose, knowledge sharing and co-construction processes of social representations of psychoanalysis and psychiatry, the images of the relevant professionals (psychoanalysts and psychiatrists), and their social practices are investigated within the social arenas provided by digital media 2.0, namely some of the most popular social networks. The authors collect a substantial corpus—a total of 6762 statements—of public, spontaneous conversations on Facebook, Twitter, and Yahoo! Answers. These are analyzed with the text clustering method of Descending Hierarchical Classification by means of the Alceste software. Thanks to the cross-national perspective of the study, they identify different psycho-social scenarios between the two national contexts (Italy and France) in which the social demand for health care and supply relating to mental illness has in recent decades been animated by the controversial debate on psychiatry, psychoanalysis, and the institutional practices with large impact on society and laypeople outside the circles of experts and professionals. Confirming their hypotheses, the results show specific strategies for the promotion by users involved in communicative processes in the social networks—under the relevant communicative constraints—of specific claims for the treatment and rehabilitation of mental disorders, and of the relative services in healthcare sectors.

Abstract Breaking into the consumer market, Virtual Reality (VR) has now penetrated wide areas of the industrial market. Rapidly developing technologies are opening up new application possibilities with low cost and high quality solutions. Although VR has been used exclusively as a marketing tool in companies up to now, it is still being extended to support all areas of the complete product development process. However, this is also accompanied by the difficulty to manage the amount of functionalities and design options associated with VR. Developers of such VR systems must nevertheless maintain an overview of the multitude of technological and content-related possibilities and bring them in line with the requirements of VR customers or VR users. At the same time, VR customers must also have an idea of the technological possibilities and formulate their vision of a VR system as precisely, completely and goal-oriented as possible. In the end, both sides must find a common level of communication in order to record the characteristics of the VR system in the form of a requirement specification or an offer. Factors such as different terminologies and different views about the product development process along with the diverse knowledge about VR functionalities on both sides complicate this process. This article is intended to show the concept for a toolbox that supports the definition of a customer-specific VR solution. This shall exploit the full potential of VR for the customer’s specific product development process in VR. The generic product development process will be studied and the VR application areas will be located. In this regard, a classification of the main components of VR systems is performed. The goal of such a classification is to establish a relationship between the product model (along with product specific properties and relationships) and the VR system components. As the field of VR does not yet have an established set of standardized terms, a definition of all terms in this context can help to improve communication between customer and developer. This article shows how a toolbox for agencies and development departments must be structured so that the VR developer can design, evaluate, calculate and develop a complex VR system in a customer-oriented way. Furthermore, the vision of the toolbox presented in this paper also has the goal that the VR customer can specifically formulate his/her requirements in a customer-specific way that leads to an easier understanding for VR developer and eventually to a VR solution. Finally, the possibility of extension of the presented toolbox structure is discussed to automatically generate specification proposals and suitable technology recommendation based on the problem at hand.
