Abstract [en]

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to call for a scrutiny of the dualist approach to business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-customer (B2C) marketing in industries driven by consumer-generated content. It posits that individual consumer-centric factors are influential for B2B marketing as well in sectors such as the travel industry and investigates the determinants of tourists’ intention to use social media websites for travel planning.

Design/methodology/approach

Integrating constructs from IS and marketing literature, the paper proposes information quality and perceived enjoyment as antecedents of perceived usefulness, attitude and intention to use. The research model is tested using data from social media users with experience in travel planning.

Findings

Results show that perceived usefulness and information quality are stronger predictors of attitude and behavioral intention than perceived enjoyment. Enjoyment was not found to be strongly influential. Relevancy and reliability of information and its usefulness concerning travel-planning needs were found more influential.

Research limitations/implications

Data were collected from social media users, raising possible issues of representativeness.

Practical implications

The paper offers clarity regarding antecedents of downstream user behavior which can be of significant value. Demarcations in B2B and B2C perspectives blur in the context of social media, enabling more effective integration.

Originality/value

The paper brings in and validates the roles of information quality and enjoyment as influencers of behavior. Identifying the travel industry as a sector having greater likelihood of B2BC convergence, the paper extends IS adoption research to user-interactive sites in the travel-planning context, which can benefit the consumer as well as the supply side.

Abstract [en]

Retailers are facing major changes, including intensified competition, increased internationalization, and technological advances, which are transforming the competitive landscape at a fast pace. Simultaneously we see an emerging paradigm shift in consumers’ buying behavior. Digital devices such as smartphones and tablets allow consumers to search and shop online, irrespective of time and place and without geographical boundaries. While these devices originally were used mainly for information search, mobile purchases are becoming a natural part of many consumers’ shopping habits.

Abstract [en]

Blogs have incredible potential as persuasion tools and their persuasive function is of great importance as they have a great influence over public opinion (Xifra & Huertas, 2008). Individuals are increasingly referring to online product review blogs for gaining advice and receiving recommendations concerning the quality of the product of their choice. As a result, some marketers have made an effort to control or manipulate the online reputation of their products by compensating individuals to review products favorably in various online forums and product review blogs (Jensen, 2011). In return, as of late 2009, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has mandated product review bloggers to provide disclosures in their reviews when they receive compensation (payment or free products), or whenever there may be hidden interests or unspoken biases related to recommendations (FTC, 2009).

Abstract [en]

Stakeholders expect corporations to improve their sustainability performance through observing environmental and social demands, and corporations respond to these requirements through applying corporate social responsibility (CSR). CSR can be achieved by designing a sustainable supply chain in cooperation with companies along the supply chain. The stakeholder pressure on corporations to become sustainable transfers across the supply chain to suppliers. Buying firms manage the relationship with suppliers through supply management. Then, supplying managers’ attention to customer’s sustainability demands and reflecting such demands in their supply can improve the sustainability performance of the suppliers. This improvement in performance of suppliers emanates in supplied products and services and it gives buying firm a comparative advantage against competitors. Accordingly, sustainable supply management and buyer-supplier cooperation on achieving sustainability can address the sustainability concerns of the current business world. However, very few existing studies have considered the impact of sustainable supply management on improving sustainability performance of the buying firm. The current study goes beyond improving the sustainability performance of the buying firm. Specifically, the present research illustrates how sustainable supply management and buyer-suppliers cooperation can boost sustainability performance of the suppliers

Abstract [en]

The supply of drinking water is a crucial and vulnerable element of the Swedish infrastructure. In the past few years it has suffered several crises due to contamination and waterborne diseases. Therefore, management of water crisis has become a highly topical issue for the country's municipalities, particularly after two recent outbreaks of cryptosporidium. This protozoan parasite is often spread through contaminated water and causes a parasitic disease that affects the intestines and typically causes an acute short-term infection. The largest known outbreak of cryptosporidium in drinking water occurred in 1993 in Milwaukee, US, where more than 400 000 people were infected. In Sweden, two large outbreaks have occurred during the past few years. The drinking water in Östersund, a mid-sized city with around 59 000 inhabitants, was infected with cryptosporidium in November 2010. The number of people infected reached approximately 27 000, and the outbreak lasted for 12 weeks. Just a few months afterwards, Skellefteå, with 71 000 inhabitants, had a similar experience. At least 20 000 people were infected in an outbreak lasting 20 weeks. This type of crisis affects many people for a long time, and effective communication, therefore, is essential to limit the impact of the crisis.

Abstract [en]

This paper investigates whether the use of the Internet by Swedish SMEs in their supply chain operations and management has an impact on overall efficiency. The empirical findings from a survey on Swedish SMEs indicate that the level of efficiency is not statistically related to the level of Internet usage.

Abstract [en]

In line with the growing consciousness among tourists about their impact on the environment, there is an increasing interest for more sustainable holiday alternatives. Therefore, ecotourism, that is: the travelling to relatively undisturbed or uncontaminated areas with the specific objective of studying, admiring and enjoying the scenery and its wild plants and animals, as well as any existing cultural manifestations (both past and present) found in these areas, is currently growing at a rate much higher than the general tourism industry. Although the marketing community have responded to the general call for more research on sustainability in tourism, the extant literature appear to lack an integrative framework that incorporates antecedents of ecotourism intention and paying premium for ecotourism offerings. The present study drew from TPB and Inglehart’s materialist-postmaterialist assumptions in explaining the antecedents of intention to visit ecotourism destinations and willingness to pay a premium price.
