most countries impose restrictions, ranging from taboos
in advertising to constraints on the equity level held by
foreign retailers and 3PL providers

CHAIN MANAGEMENT
VRIO criteria
traditional media are losing viewers, readers, and thus
effectiveness, but marketers do not have a good handle
of how advertising on the new online media adds value

supply chain activities – if all firms use FedEx to manage
logistics which does add value), these activities, in

MANUFACTURING vs. SERVICES
Consider contract manufacturing service. Is it
manufacturing? Service? Both? Does it matter?
Although marketing and supply chain management would
be regarded as services historically, this classification
may not matter that much.
Does McDonald’s manufacture hamburgers? How much
difference is there between McDonald’s and Boeing?
Both market new products, both make to order (finalize a
product based on an order), and both extensively rely on
powerful supply chain management systems around the
world.
Market Orientation vs.
Relationship Orientation
Market orientation refers to a philosophy or way of
thinking that places the highest priority on the creation of
superior customer value in the marketplace.
A market-oriented firm genuinely listens to customer
feedback and allocates resources accordingly to meet
customer expectations.
Relationship orientation, defined as a focus to
establish, maintain, and enhance relationships with
customers.
Marketers have heavily debated whether a market
orientation or a relationship orientation is more effective
in global markets. Key to the debate is how firms benefit
from market or relationship orientation differently around
the world.
