Cambridge Marketing Handbook: Marketing Communications looks at the contemporary integrated communications mix, in the light of the changes in digital marketing and aims to give an overview of the current tools that marketers need to have under their belts. Coverage includes: the purpose and uses of communications; the promotional mix; advertising tools; public relations and media tools; the meaning of consumer behaviour; communications plans and evaluation methods. The Handbook also examines the buyer behaviour theories for B2C and B2C, looking at the elements that make up the process of purchase.
There are only two categories of purchases that people can make: products or services. Each, by its very nature, demands a different approach to marketing and sales. This situation is not new and indeed was highlighted in the early 1800s when French economist Jean-Baptiste Say argued that production and consumption were inseparable in services, coining the term "immaterial products" to describe them. This book takes a fresh look at the world of services marketing (the Servicescape) as we transition from the information age into what is being called the Age of Awareness - a period where individuals move away from information browsing and collection to the application of knowledge, emotion and responsibility to consumption, production and relationships. Revealing the impact of these changes on the marketing of services, it focuses on the role of people and processes in delivering success.
Marketers have long held the view that the customer should be central to all they think about, all they do. Yet the developments of the last few years have shown that other forces are at play that can be at least as powerful and long lasting. A broader group of stakeholders exists whose needs and interests must be understood and satisfied in the quest for a strong corporate reputation and business success. Most recently the impact of the internet and social media has amplified the power of individuals to comment on, and ultimately to influence, the activities of organizations of all types. This handbook examines the identification of stakeholders: internal, connected and external, their ability to affect the organization, and how organizations should relate to them. It also examines the organization itself and the factors which influence the development of its corporate image among its various stakeholder audiences.
Marketing in the digital age poses major challenges for traditional and established practices of communication. To help readers meet these challenges Principles of Integrated Marketing Communications: An Evidence-based Approach provides a comprehensive foundation to the principles and practices of integrated marketing communications (IMC). It examines a variety of traditional and digital channels used by professionals to create wide-reaching and effective campaigns that are adapted for the aims of their organisations. This edition has been thoroughly revised and each chapter includes: case studies of significant and award-winning campaigns from both Australian and international brands that illustrate the application of explored concepts; discussion and case study questions that enable readers to critically evaluate concepts and campaigns; a managerial application section that illustrates how concepts can be applied effectively in a real situation; a 'further thinking' section that expands knowledge of advanced concepts and challenges readers to think more broadly about IMC.
Marketers should be aware that there is a large amount of regulation and legislation and that ignorance of the law is not an excuse. However, many marketers feel very unsure how the various rules and regulations affect them. This handbook examines the key issues that affect marketers in marketing communications, including both traditional media such as advertisements and social media. Written by a marketer, rather than a lawyer, this handbook is designed to give practical guidance on all the necessary aspects. Legal language is very precise, and hence complicated; this handbook uses colloquial language for clarity. Each chapter includes clear summaries, examples and flow diagrams to help marketers understand how to comply.

In the last two years, consumers have experienced massive changes in consumption – whether due to shifts in habits; the changing information landscape; challenges to their identity, or new economic experiences of scarcity or abundance. What can we expect from these experiences? How are the world's leading thinkers applying both foundational knowledge and novel insights as we seek to understand consumer psychology in a constantly changing landscape? And how can informed readers both contribute to and evaluate our knowledge? This handbook offers a critical overview of both fundamental topics in consumer psychology and those that are of prominence in the contemporary marketplace, beginning with an examination of individual psychology and broadening to topics related to wider cultural and marketplace systems. The Cambridge Handbook of Consumer Psychology, 2nd edition, will act as a valuable guide for teachers and graduate and undergraduate students in psychology, marketing, management, economics, sociology, and anthropology.
Distribution within an organization relates to processes, people and interrelations between other organizations which connect the production of the products and services to their end-users. It is a chain of elements that, when connected, provides a smooth flow of orders and fulfilment across the business. It can be long and distributed or short and concise and, like any chain, it is only as strong as its weakest link. This handbook from the Cambridge Marketing College series analyses and assesses the different distribution models and identifies the key issues related to determining distribution strategy across an organisation. It provides a concise guide to identifying the key distribution activities within a wide variety of national, international, physical and online businesses and how to relate the experiences of other businesses within a company.
This handbook sets the scene for marketers while asking some uncomfortable questions and raising some challenging issues. Do we need marketing at all and why do we get it wrong? Putting marketing in context with other functions for those who are new to the discipline, it begins to establish a Modus Operandi. For many, the operation of marketing comes with considerable military baggage, and this book offers some alternative frameworks. It finally considers the six spheres of marketing understanding and sets out a Periodic Table of Elements for Marketing. Written part as a guide and part as philosophy, it challenges the reader to think for themselves. Issues covered include: the state of the marketing profession and how we got here; is there a need for marketing?; the spectrum of marketing; consumer views of marketing; alternative views; the six operational spheres of marketing.
