Borderless Bits: Electronic Globalization And Its Social Consequences, Nikhilesh Dholakia
College of Business Faculty Publications
Globalization of services with the aid of electronic technologies - popularly called outsourcing or offshoring - has been accelerating. In this paper, the factors that drive electronic globalization - as distinct from factors that drive the general process of globalization - are discussed briefly. A simple model of a 2-firm USA-India dyad engaged in outsourcing relationships is presented to outline the economic basis for electronic globalization. By introducing wider political and cultural forces, progressively more complex views of the electronic globalization phenomenon are presented. Finally, the interplays of the economic, political, and cultural forces are explored to arrive at a …

The sports industry is an important one; it is estimated to be the 11th largest industry in the United States. Within this industry, individual sports, at both the amateur and professional levels, compete for talented players, supporters, government funding, and sponsorship dollars. It is therefore important for sports to manage their sports brands. We use Lederer and Hill’s (2001) brand molecule concept to explain the brand management implications for a professional, national sports team, the Bulldogs, a Sydney-based team in Australia’s National Rugby League competition. The brand molecule highlights for the brand manager the positive and negative atoms that comprise …
"Making Connections": Insights Into Relationship Marketing From The Australasian Stock And Station Agent Industry, Simon Ville
"Making Connections": Insights Into Relationship Marketing From The Australasian Stock And Station Agent Industry, Simon Ville
Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)
Relationship marketing has received little attention from business historians who have favored the study of branding, associational advertising, market research, and the role of marketing agencies, particularly in relation to modern consumer manufacturing. Although the term relationship marketing is of recent origin, we analyze its practice under a different guise, "connections", over several centuries: we draw on the extensive archival evidence of a rural business services industry in Australia and New Zealand. Relationship marketing's emphasis upon close and enduring individual customer relationships mitigated uncertainty of performance and behaviour, on both sides of the transaction, created by a long and geographically …

Lectures are a central element of traditional university learning, but Australian lecturers increasingly face very low levels of lecture attendance. A significant amount of research exists that investigates the drivers of lecture attendance. However, those studies typically study single factors in an isolated manner, thus overestimating the importance of individual factors. This study contributes to the understanding of lecture attendance (and nonattendance) by including a range of factors that potentially affect lecture attendance simultaneously, thus accounting for possible interactions between factors and identifying the key drivers of lecture attendance. The study uses a survey among all students of an Australian …

A Marketing Perspective On Choice Factors Considered By South African First-Year Students In Selecting A Higher Education Institution, Melanie Wiese, C H Van Heerden, Yolanda Jordaan, E North

The unstable and turbulent environment in which higher education institutions all over the world currently have to operate poses many management and marketing challenges to such institutions. As non-profit organisations, the ability of higher education institutions to survive and grow would be enhanced by up-to-date knowledge and information regarding the higher education environment, and more specifically by having marketing and communication strategies that might influence students making decisions on which university to enrol at. The main goal of this study was to investigate the relevant importance of the choice factors that prospective students considered, as well as the sources of …

2001 Nüfus Sayımı Verilerine Göre İngiltere’De Etnik Pazar Potansiyeli, Ibrahim Sirkeci
Ibrahim Sirkeci
Bu çalışma İngiltere ve Galler nüfusunun etnik gruplara göre dağılımını sunmakta ve etnik pazar potansiyeli gösterilmektedir. İngiltere ve Galler nüfusunun etnik yapısını görmek için Birleşik Krallık (BK) 1991 ve 2001 Nüfus Sayımları ile 2004 Yılı Nüfus Araştırması verileri kullanılmıştır. Bu verilere göre, 1999’dan bu yana ülkedeki tüketim pazarının büyümesinin önemli bir kısmınının İngiltere ve Galler’deki etnik azınlıkların artan tüketiminden kaynaklandığını söylemek mümkündür. Bu bize etnik azınlık pazarının sunabileceği zengin pazarlama ve genişleme olanaklarının varlığını göstermektedir. BK etnik pazarı hızla büyüyen bir pazar olduğu görülmektedir ve genel eğilimler büyüme yönündedir. BK etnik pazarının daha kapsamlı ve derinlemesine anlaşılabilmesi için gerek tüketici …
