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.

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 company's 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.

Download or read book Controversy in Marketing Theory For Reason Realism Truth and Objectivity written by Shelby D. Hunt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book distinguished theorist and author Shelby D. Hunt analyzes the major controversies in the "philosophy debates" raging throughout the field of marketing. Using an historical approach, Hunt argues against relativism and for scientific realism as a philosophy for guiding marketing research and theory. He also shows how the pursuit of truth and objectivity in marketing research are both possible and desirable. Specific controversies analyzed in the book include: Does positivism dominate marketing research? Does positivism imply quantitive methods? Is relativism an appropriate foundation for marketing research? Does relativism imply pluralism, tolerance, and openness? Should marketing pursue the goal of objective research? An ideal companion to Hunt's classic text, Foundations of Marketing Theory, this volume will be equally useful on its own in any graduate level course on marketing theory.
