Download or read book Relationship Marketing written by Steve Baron and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2010-04-20 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between a market and a consumer is complex. Far from simply an exchange of services there is an often complex transaction of feeling, meaning and experience. How does the study of relationship marketing interpret this? In this exciting new book the authors explore the factors of relationship marketing in its contemporary context, with the consumer in mind. From the experience of a football club supporter to experiences of gap year travel, to text messaging behaviour, and to using the library, the focus of this text is on the consumer perspective. From this angle, issues of relationship marketing, and its management, take on a new and exciting bearing. Topics examined include: frameworks for analyzing the consumer experience; consumer communities; issues of customer loyalty; the impact of ICT on relationship marketing; and the creative consumer. Each chapter is supported by - or based on - an in-depth case study, many of which are drawn from the authors′ research.

Download or read book Relationship Marketing Focusing On Consumer Complaints written by Gunjeet Kaur and published by . This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumer complaints, managerial response to them and their satisfactory resolution, leading to a dyadic perception between the consumer and the company, form the core of relationship marketing. The mutual resolution of complaints, without third party arbitration, constitutes the central construct of this book which implies that customer retention is easiest when the company's actual response in the post-complaint phase perfectly matches the consumer's expectations from the company in that phase. For this status to be present, there must exist such characteristics as mutual trust, commitment, two-way communication, social support and empathy, self-disclosure, emotion, need for service, guarantees, and higher standard. This book has significant implications for four major areas of policy formulation.

Download or read book Total Relationship Marketing written by Evert Gummesson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-01-05 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third edition of Total Relationship Marketing confirms it as a classic text on the subject of relationship marketing and CRM, areas which have become accepted – and debated – parts of marketing but are currently undergoing dramatic change. A major contribution to marketing thought internationally, this seminal title presents a powerful in-depth analysis of relational approaches to marketing where the three words relationships, networks and interaction are king. The book effects a dramatic shift in the fundamentals of marketing thought, with the author’s refined model of thirty relationships, the 30Rs, presenting a sophisticated and cogent challenge to the traditional 4Ps schema. Previous editions were widely praised as breakthrough texts in the field, combining incisive and searching analysis with an accessible and pragmatic approach to putting the theory to work. This third edition is the first book on relationship marketing and CRM to integrate the ongoing evolution in marketing through the service-dominant logic, lean consumption and the customer’s value chain, the augmented role of the customer in value creation, the increasing importance of customer-to-customer (C2C) interaction, network-based many-to-many marketing, and marketing accountability and metrics. It addresses both the high tech, information technology aspects of marketing and the high touch, human aspects. Further, customer-centricity is suggested to be broadened to balanced centricity, a trade-off between the needs of all stakeholders of a network of relationships. Examples, cases, concepts and references have been updated. Highly informative, practical in style and packed with illustrations from real companies, Total Relationship Marketing is an essential resource for all serious marketing practitioners as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students.
