Analysis of the Current Support of E-marketing Activities in Selected Enterprises of the Wine Sector in Slovakia

Abstract

In the digital era, implementing an effective marketing strategy requires a more comprehensive view of the marketing strategy than in the past. The concepts of older approaches are already ineffective today, but we consider it important to mention them. Organizations focus on improving production, achieving low cost and mass distribution. The product concept is based on the conviction of consumers who prefer products with the highest quality or innovative characteristics. Managers focus on producing quality products and subsequently improving them. The disadvantage is the disproportionate focus on the product (marketing near-sightedness) as on consumption. The sales concept is characterized by a gradual increase in competition and market saturation. With this characteristic, managers are using a more aggressive fixed sales strategy, paying more attention to sales and building improved sales channels. The most modern approach is the holistic marketing concept that came about with the advent of the digital era. It is a dynamic concept conditional on electronic connectivity and interactivity between the agricultural company, its customers and collaborators. It integrates value exploration, building and delivering activities for mutually satisfying relationships and shared prosperity among stakeholders. This paper summarizes the most important results of the questionnaire survey of selected companies carried out under the title: Analysis of the current support of e-marketing activities in selected enterprises of the wine sector in Slovakia. The results of the questionnaire survey are evaluated in the text based on submitted scientific hypotheses.

Building aware and unaware consumers’ trust towards family business: Evidence from Poland

“…FB identity is understood as a firm self-concept, embracing the idiosyncratic attributes resulting from kin-ownership (Nikodemska-Wolowik, 2006;Botero et al 2013;Blombäck & Ramírez-Pasillas, 2012). Concerning market communication, explicit signals are more effective than indirect messages (Hartnett et al, 2016), furthermore, the possibilities of their effective usage increase significantly in terms of intensive ICT development (Bilan, Mishchuk, Samoliuk, & Grishnova, 2019;Janšto, Polakovič, Hennyeyová, & Slováková, 2019;Botos, Szilágyi, Felföldi, & Tóth, 2020;). According to Zanon et al (2019), a large number of FBs worldwide explicitly communicate their family status to stakeholders, but there are countries like Poland, in which consumers are not always able to identify themselves as familyowned.…”

“…As a result of the pandemic and lockdown some professions experienced more than a 100% boost, among them e-marketing and delivery services. E-marketing in particular proves to be an important element of the new business relations (Anser et a., 2020;Janšto et al, 2019) and it showed itself as very useful during the recent crisis.…”

Agricultural Transformation in Indonesia: Evaluation of Policy Implementation and Challenges Faced

“…The agricultural sector in Indonesia plays a crucial role in the overall economic development of the country (Belete, 2022;Bromley, 2009;Hayden et al, 2022;Saygılı & Çakmak, 2022;Tripoli & Schmidhuber, 2018). It serves as a significant source of employment, particularly in rural areas, and contributes to the livelihoods of millions of people (Armoogum et al, 2016;Janšto et al, 2019;MacUra et al, 2019;Siddiqui, 2018). Moreover, it plays a vital role in ensuring food security for the growing population of Indonesia.…”
