Introduction: The Meaning and Scope of Marketing JL ISTRIBUTION, or marketing is the most important part of business. Most business concerns can produce many more goods than they can sell at a profit. Give us sales is the common cry of businessmen, and huge sums are spent on ad vertising and salesmanship. Whatever can be sold can be made. The big problem is distribution. Such statements are common and may be accepted as generally true in normal times. This condition has not always existed. Up until compara tively recent times, the big task of the race was to produce enough goods food, clothing, and shelterto satisfy its needs. During the past 150 years the problem has been altered by the use of labor-saving machinery by the discoveries and inventions of chemistry, agriculture, physics, and engineering and by the development of scientific management and accounting. The development of the natural sciences and the arts of physics, entomology, geology, chemistry, management, and en gineering has given us much new knowledge which has enabled us to increase greatly the output of goods and to reduce the costs of production.

Download or read book Sensory Marketing in Retail written by Arto Lindblom and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2024-01-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sensory marketing is a way to differentiate businesses from their competition while influencing customers and their behaviour. At its best, sensory marketing guides or helps customers to make certain choices in a way that they are unaware of what actually influenced their choices. Although it sounds like an attractive way to “nudge” customers, it is a highly demanding practice that also involves risks and ethical concerns. This textbook delves into the world of sensory marketing in a physical retail setting and offers a comprehensive and coherent view of various sensory cues and their capacity to drive our behaviour through stimulating our senses and creating sensory experiences. It particularly highlights the meaning of the multisensory nature of retail stores and emphasises how cues tend to affect us in combination rather than separately as single cues. After reading this book, you will be able to: · Identify various cues in a retailing setting · Categorise cues into different groups · Explain how cues affect consumers when they make their daily choices · Understand the multisensory nature of retail stores and the meaning of cue (in)congruence · Describe how consumers are likely to respond differently to cue combinations than single cues · Apply cues in practice and assess their outcomes. Ideal reading for students taking classes in consumer behaviour, shopper marketing, retail marketing and store design among others, it contains more than 30 global examples from various retail companies, self-reflective questions and decisions-based questions to aid learning.
