Book Creative Marketing  a New Management Philosophy

Download or read book Creative Marketing a New Management Philosophy written by Robin Luke and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2014-11-18 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creative Marketing lifts marketing theory and practice to a higher order,-a third level above Operational and Strategic Marketing. It provides a new mapping structure, rationale, market research methodology and a new unifying philosophical basis. It involves a new and highly proactive approach to superior market value creation. A secondary objective of the text is to draw marketing back into the province of general management, acknowledging that it has for too long been divorced from its roots and thereby become dominated by an academic perspective. The author argues that the discipline is currently unable to provide any definitive set of strategies that offer some prospect of guaranteed success under all possible market conditions. This is because traditional marketing has been predicated on the basis that incremental improvements in a companys marketing mix is the only way to build and defend some sort of competitive market advantage. In practice, this advantage is often easily and quickly eroded by the actions of competitors. Contrary to this common (organizational development) wisdom, long-term empirical evidence clearly demonstrates that it is the companies that dominate their particular industry,-that in fact own the industry standard, that enjoy the highest profit margins and enjoy the longest periods of largely uncontested market supremacy. Creative Marketing as described in this book offers a means whereby any company can, given sufficient creative imagination, come to dominate its industry, irrespective of its present market status. This is because the processes involved are not contingent upon some sort of technological superiority or extensive financial or other resources. The text provides the methodology for realizing the long-sought envelope curve path of corporate growth and profitability, that means never having to complete an industry life cycle,-perhaps the Holy Grail of Marketing.

Book Philosophy of Marketing

Download or read book Philosophy of Marketing written by Matteo Giannasi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we overcome the rapidly ageing postmodernist paradigm, which has become sterile orthodoxy in marketing? This book answers this crucial question using fresh philosophical tools developed by New Realism. It indicates the opportunities missed by marketing due to the pervasive postmodernist ideology and proposes a new and fruitful approach pivoting on the significance of reality to marketing analyses and models. Intensifying reference to reality will boost marketing research and practice, rather than impair them; conversely, neglecting such a reference will prevent marketing from realising its full potential, in several contexts. The aim of the book is foundational: its purpose is not a return to traditional realism but to break new ground and overcome theoretical obstacles in marketing and management by revising some of their assumptions and enriching their categories, thereby paving the way to fresh approaches and methodological innovations. In that sense, the book encourages theoretical innovation and experimentation and introduces new concepts, like invitation and attrition, which can find fruitful applications in marketing theory and practice. That is meant to be conductive to the solution of important difficulties and to the uncovering of new phenomena. The last chapter of the book applies the new approach to eight case studies from business contexts. This book will be of interest to philosophers interested in New Realism and to researchers, scholars and marketing professionals sensitive to the importance and fruitfulness of reference to reality, for their own purposes.

Book Creative Marketing

Download or read book Creative Marketing written by I. Fillis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2005-11-10 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creative Marketing has been written in response to the continued failure to address the theory/practice gap in marketing management. The art world is full of creativity, yet existing marketing theory continues to prescribe formulaic, stepwise processes for marketing success. Rather than perpetuating the belief in the value of traditional marketing frameworks, this book draws on a diverse range of disciplines to inspire entrepreneurial thinking and practice among those marketers who wish to push the boundaries of knowledge and convention. Creative Marketing gets back to how best to support individuals as well as small, medium and micro-enterprises through new marketing approaches.

Book Strategic Creativity in Marketing Communications

Download or read book Strategic Creativity in Marketing Communications written by Gulnara Karimova Ph D. and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is very heartening to see Gulnara Karimova's scholarly work on the application of Bakhtinian theory in understanding the marketing communication process being put to intriguing practical use in this new handbook of creative strategies. " Chris Miles, PhD Lecturer in Marketing and Communication School of Business and Management Queen Mary, University of London ---------------------------------------------------------------- In this book, Dr.Gulnara Z. Karimova concentrates on current pressing issues within the theory of interactive advertising. Such problems as defining interactivity and measuring levels of interactivity have recently attracted great interest among researchers. In spite of previous research attempts to address these issues, the field of interactive advertising has not progressed much beyond its preliminary phase. This book is an attempt to further the literature in the filed by applying Bakhtinian concepts of 'dialogic relationships, ' 'polyphony, ' 'carnival, ' and the idea of the 'chronotope' to advertising research and analysis. This research translates into English, for the first time, many of Mikhail Bakhtin's theoretical and philosophical insights. As such this book provides insights into Bakhtinian philosophy and reveals new perspectives and contradictions within well-known Bakhtinian concepts. The book contains original material from the correspondence between Bakhtin and his follower Vladimir Turbin, a popular professor of Russian literature at Moscow, that has never previously been translated to English. Using an innovative approach, this study shows how Bakhtinian concepts can be applied to fields other than literary theory. The Empedocles: European Journal for the Philosophy of Communication notes that Karimova's book Bakhtin and Interactive Advertising: "makes a valuable contribution to the study of interactivity by executing a rigorous and thought-provoking conceptual analysis that problematizes the way in which interactivity, as practice, has been stripped of its dialogical and communicative features by key theoreticians in the field." Dr.Karimova discusses two problems related to the theory of interactive advertising: how interactivity can be defined and how it can be measured. For this purpose, the book uses Bakhtinian concepts as well as other theories and ideas, such as Gérard Genette's typology, Kristeva's notion of intertextuality, Chris Miles' model for advertising communication, and cybernetics. The work will be of immense interest to communications, marketing, and advertising researchers, and specialists involved in interactive advertising, the theory of interactivity, and Bakhtinian philosophy and practice.
