Notas do Editor
- For example, if you market to a school or college, they buy a plethora of things in order to keep the institution operating. Note, that business marketing is NOT the same as consumer marketing. They differ in many areas, including the channels of distribution, web integration, and complexity of buying processes.
- It is absolutely important for relationships to be strong in Business Marketing. Without the ability for the seller to know the buyer, it is impossible to design customized products and services that enhance the LTV. This is rarely the case in Consumer Markets. Remember that in the end there is ultimately, (well for the most part, we guess), an end consumer that uses a particular product or service. Therefore, all products designed to every business along the way must ultimately follow the demand of the end consumer.
- Note, although the user is the consumer of a product, it may be a company (GM) that uses the product in another business process
- Take a look at the derived demand section in your book.
- It is very common for many organizations to fall into some of these traps. For example, is GM trying to “catch the mouse,” or are they trying to build a better mousetrap?
- Relationship Marketing is an interesting because in a sense, the way that we do marketing today, especially in the business-to-business domain, is essentially almost exclusively relationship marketing. In other words, one needs to question the meaningfulness of the concept, if it’s almost synonymous with marketing. Can you think of any examples where there is NO relationship? Firms want repeat business, customers buy because they have familiarity with the product brand so they feel connected to it … by definition these have some component of relationship. It is only the PURE transaction that has no relationship: no prior knowledge, history, and no expectation of any future interaction at all. Yet, it is very valuable to spend some time thinking about relationship marketing because it does reflect our orientation today … it changes the fundamental nature of marketing if we want the customer to come to us with some prior knowledge, some idea of what to expect, if we want to assure that we have a possibility for future interaction.
- Relationship Marketing assumes that we are working toward an on-going interaction with our customer. If we are trying to establish a longer time horizon then we need to determine which customers we are willing to invest in. In true relationship with customers, we may find that we become so dependent on one another that we it would be harder to change to another customer, or for the customer to another supplier. This happens because there has been investment in one another and often this is determined on the basis of the technology or the vendor’s overall capability rather than the individual product or a particular personal relationship. When this happens, these relationships become strategically important, as well as operationally and personally important to those involved. The nature needs to be win-win or collaborative or the relationship won’t be sustainable. For example, take a look at Land’s End as a customer. Land’s End is a business and it works very closely with it’s suppliers. Suppliers who want to market their products to Land’s End must meet certain requirements. First, Land’s End needs certain capability and specifications. Next, Land’s End requires all of its suppliers to use a common technology that provides for inventory interface, tracking and so forth. However, Land’s End is willing to invest in the suppliers … if a it wants a particular supplier it may help to support the start up costs of the technological platform. The supplier has to be willing to invest the time and change in process to get the new system up to speed. This example can show how the exchange has to be viewed as longer in time horizon, bigger investment, a focus on the total vendor and the technology, and higher importance.
- There are really three types of relationships. One time market transaction is where there is no relationship and represents one extreme anchor on a continuum from no relationship to complete immersion, which might be anchored by vertical integration. In between we can flow from functional relationship to strategic partnership in varying degrees. Let’s take the Schmidt School of Professional Sales as an example. The Schmidt School partners with businesses to benefit both, and has a variety of different types of relationships. Let’s look at Marathon. The Schmidt School has provided a number of students to Marathon over a number of years. Marathon continues to come and recruit our students, and the Schmidt School is delighted to have students placed in internships and full time positions with Marathon. However, we maintain a functional relationship with Marathon. It exists for a series of transactions over time, but there is no further relationship development. Sales faculty don’t know its recruiters and they don’t know us. There is no investment, financially or otherwise, between the two firms. Contrast this to 3M. At one time 3M was much like Marathon. Yet the recruiter was so impressed with our students that he sought the faculty out to find out more about what we were doing. We began to have lunch when he would be in town and meet him occasionally at conferences. He offered to speak in classes. We moved to relational partners. Then one day at lunch, he said to two of us, “we need to figure out how to move UT from this functional relationship with our higher ups to a strategic relationship.” We began to plan. The director went to HQ in Minneapolis. 3M gave us some scholarship money. We eventually advanced to where we are today with UT being a 3M Frontier Partner and 3M supporting a room in the new building and being a corporate partner in the Schmidt School.
- Try to think about the questions above.
- Relationships between buyers and sellers are at the center of modern sales theories. By building relationships with customers, as a seller, you can move away from one-time, transactional marketing and towards business on a consistent basis, which will make you more profitable as a marketer and as a salesperson. Strategic partnerships are becoming more and more popular as organization work together in more research and development efforts to come out with the latest and greatest technologies around the world.
- Your text includes a great discussion of the stages that business firms tend to go through. There is no requirement that firms continue along the continuum. A firm may stop at awareness or expansion or commitment and stay there indefinitely. Make sure to take a special look at exhibit 2-4 on page 43 of your text.
- Remember that a relationship can end or stay in a current stage indefinitely
- Many relationships continue for long amounts of time. For example, it is doubtful that the relationship between McDonalds and Coca-Cola will dissolve anytime soon. Coca-Cola products are the only beverages sold in most McDonalds
- Relationships between buyers and sellers are necessary in today’s world. Although it is nice to be able to trust your business partner, these are ways of preventing the relationship from going south and maintaining profitability.
