El merchandising de las marcas de distribución vs. marcas de fabricantes, en productos de alimentación de la Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid

OBJETIVOS Y RESULTADOS: Durante la década analizada, crecieron las Marcas Privadas (MDD) en alimentación y apareció la segunda generación de Marcas Propias (Marcas de Primer Precio: MPP) La bibliografía de Marketing es escasa en referencias al Merchandising y, menos con métodos cuantitativos. De aquí nuestra motivación para abordar este tema que consideramos de gran importancia. Por todo ello nos hemos propuesto cubrir los siguientes objetivos, aunque obviamente se detallan en las hipótesis a corroborar son los siguientes: • Espacio dedicado en el lineal de las MDD vs MF • Situación en el lineal de las MDD vs MF • Comparación de actividades promocionales y sus clases entre las MDDs y las MFs • Comparación de calidad de envases de las MDDs vs MFs • Finalmente hemos querido modernizar y actualizar ciertos contenidos académicos. HIPÓTESIS A CORROBORAR HIPÓTESIS TEÓRICA: Las enseñas con marcas de distribución, con el objetivo de incrementar el margen bruto de los productos con estas marcas, tienden a optimizar las acciones de marketing de sus marcas vs. las marcas líderes, en sus mismos mercados.

Análisis de las variables de marketing que afectan al valor del cliente. La permanencia como variable controlable

To know how marketing variables affect customer value is essential for a company in order to be market and customer oriented, and to improve investment efficiency in both attracting and retaining customers. Thus, the assessment of the influence of marketing variables in customer value is of prime importance. This is recognized in many empirical studies of these variables, which address the impact of a single variable (or sets of a few variables) on customer value. A comprehensive, integrated assessment of all marketing variables and their interdependencies is an arduous and complex task for researchers and marketing managers. This research proposes a theoretical model of customer value that takes into account all significant marketing variables that have been partially addressed in empirical investigations of other researchers. These marketing variables include brand and reputation, point of sale, employees, price, termination fee commitment, discounts, complementarity of products, experiences, emotions, perceived value, quality, satisfaction, switching costs, and loyalty. The model incorporates the relationship between each variable with retention and with customer value as well as the relationships between them. A special focus is placed on the empirical analysis of the termination fee commitment and its relationship with customer value. This variable is widely used in the telecommunication’s industry for its influence on customer retention from the moment of purchase. However, there is strikingly little research in this topic. A large customer database of a telecommunications company containing five years information about 63.165 customers is used for this purpose. Multivariate linear regression and ANOVA method are applied...
