Competitive Intelligence And Forecasting Systems: Strategic Marketing Planning Tool For Sme's, Conway Lackman, John M. Lanasa
Atlantic Marketing Journal
One of the drivers of both strategic planning and success in the marketplace is the role of competitive intelligence systems (CIS). CIS activity and its value to consumer/competitive intelligence are well established. In a survey of a broad cross section of firms, it was found that two thirds of the companies indicated a dramatic increase in level of activity and nearly three fifths (54%) said the impact of marketing intelligence systems (MI) contribute heavily to tactical and strategic decision making (Lackman, Lanasa, and Saban, 2000).

Revisiting Stereotype Research And Its Marketing Implications, Amy H. Handlin
Atlantic Marketing Journal
This paper revisits a vintage body of literature that holds clues to understanding the contemporary problem of change-resistant, stereotype-driven brand or product images. In particular, this stream of research helps illuminate (1) how information is used to create, reinforce, or weaken the perceptual device known as a stereotype, and (2) what situation-specific circumstances (e.g. the nature of the processing task) may influence the impact of this information. The author reviews major findings from the past thirty years, identifying key implications and offering hypotheses for testing dimensions of stereotype activation and alteration.

Kasky V. Nike: Lurking First Amendment Time Bomb For Marketers?, Michael J. Landry
Atlantic Marketing Journal
While attention has focused on the U. S. Supreme Court protecting corporate political speech, the Court has left untouched a California Supreme Court ruling of significance to marketers in their efforts to use advertising and public relations to offset what they view as unfair criticism. The case, Kasky v. Nike, stems from 1995 accusations that athletic footwear and apparel manufacturer Nike exploited and abused employees in Asian sweatshops. Through advertising and public relations efforts, Nike denied the claims. In 1998, Californian Mark Kasky sued, claiming Nike’s denials violated laws regarding unfair competition and false advertising and, because the denials were …

Senior Honors Theses
The global business trends point to international expansions with corporations increasingly turning to emerging markets for new opportunities to grow and create new sources of revenues.

Considering the increasing trend of going abroad in the retail industry (S&P, 2013), the paper is an …

Institutional Theory And The Evolution Of Marketing Channels In Emerging Economies: Setting A Research Agenda,

University of Nebraska at Omaha
Institutional Theory And The Evolution Of Marketing Channels In Emerging Economies: Setting A Research Agenda, Birud Sindhav
Marketing and Management Faculty Publications
The story of the growth of emerging economies is about the growth of their marketing institutions. Marketing channels are the key marketing institution in enabling the flow of goods and services. However, marketing scholars typically rely on models and theories devised in the developed economies to study the marketing channels in emerging economies, and these include theories based on political economy-based frameworks that emphasize power and dependence. We argue that often the institutional drives to gain legitimacy provide a powerful lens to understand the evolution of marketing channels. In this conceptual paper, we illustrate our arguments through a few examples, …
