As markets become more international, the more prominently the origin of products will figure in sellers' and buyers' decisions. The time is ripe for practitioners and academicians to delve into the insights offered in this seminal volume so as to better prepare for meeting the competitive challenges of the global marketplace.

Two primary objectives of the course are reflected in this book: first, to provide a general conceptual framework for critically and systematically analyzing research and theory on attitude and opinion change; second, to stimulate research on fundamental problems, related to these phenomena, that are made salient as a result of this analysis. First published in 1974. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.

This edition of this bestselling advertising and promotion management text contains a wealth of radically new material, although it is still based on the highly-regarded Rossiter and Percy framework. It is primarily aimed at students at the MBA level who are taking courses in advertising management or marketing communications, rather than undergraduates taking descriptive courses in advertising. Although much of the coverage is radically new, the text is based upon the highly-regarded Rossiter-Percy framework for advertising communications and promotion management introduced in the first edition in 1987. The new name for the revision reflects the integration of mainstream advertising with corporate communications, direct response advertising, and promotions. A completely new section, Part 5, covers integrated communications strategy. Part 6 on Media Strategy has been expanded to incorporate both traditional advertising media and the new media. A broader perspective has been taken throughout the new edition, with more emphasis on corporate communications and business products and services in addition to the traditional focus on consumer packaged goods.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK

This book evaluates Country of Origin (COO) research from new critical perspectives, providing insights on how COO shapes both consumer behaviour and business trends, and how marketers can overcome or take advantage of COO in their strategies. The contributors explore a variety of strategies for utilising Country of Origin, including how country image can influence market entry positioning strategies, and how brand heritage can be utilised as a communication tool. There is also a study of what percentage of online products require COO identification, and whether this percentage correlates to customer satisfaction. Several contributors look at consumers’ preference for food in relation to COO and authenticity, and further chapters explore the impact of consumer identification with a nation on how they evaluate brands. As Country of Origin is increasingly evaluated by consumers and used by marketers to safeguard locally-owned products, this book will be of interest to those studying the relationship between country-authentic brands and their promotion in the global marketplace. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Promotion Management.
