...食品行业绿色营销产品策略的研究现状 摘 要：近些年在国内由于食品引发的食品安全案件频发，大量假冒伪劣产品、有毒有害的垃圾产品严重影响老百姓的日常生活。触目惊心、层出不穷的食品安全案件，使消费者潜意识中产生了绿色需求。本文针对近些年的健康危机事件，总结了国内外关于消费者的绿色需求及食品企业在绿色营销产品策略方面的研究成果，在此基础上做出了评价并提出建议，为食品企业能更好的开展绿色营销提供参考。 关键字：健康危机；食品行业；绿色营销；产品策略 1 前言 1.1 研究背景和意义 近些年在国内由于食品引发的食品安全案件频发，大量假冒伪劣产品、有毒有害的垃圾产品严重影响老百姓的日常生活。据统计仅从2006到2007发生的案件有近十起，如苏丹红事件、瘦肉精事件等，食品安全不能得到保证，国人的身体素质受到严重损害。触目惊心、层出不穷的食品安全案件，使消费者潜意识中产生了绿色需求。树立绿色观念，开发绿色产品，开拓绿色市场，形成低碳体系，已成为21世纪企业营销发展的新趋势，也给企业创造了机遇。 食品安全案件频发，由于绿色营销面临着绿色营销理念尚未确立、绿色消费需求仍未形成、生产管理方式比较滞后、整体营销组合不相适应以及政府措施不力等问题。仅我国食品绿色营销在产品策略方面还存在诸多问题：一味追求近期和微观效益的理念下进行的，对环境保护和社会长远利益考虑得很少；绿色产品成本过高、食品品质较低；企业没有科学的绿色营销组合策略；我国企业普遍开发过硬的绿色产品；产品的包装也很少考虑所用材料的环保性；绿色标志制度尚未引起大多数企业的重视等等。因此，研究食品绿色营销的产品策略问题具有基础性理论意义和重要的现实意义。 1.2 绿色营销的定义和特征 目前国内学术界已基本达成一致，而笔者认为其中比较全面的定义是魏明侠、司林胜(2001)等提出的。他们认为绿色营销，即在可持续发展观的要求下，企业从承担社会责任、保护环境、充分利用资源、长远发展的角度出发，在产品研制、开发、生产、销售、售后服务全过程中，采取相应措施，达到消费者的可持续消费、企业的可持续生产、全社会的可持续发展三方面的平衡。旨在实现有限资源的有效配置，追求企业短期营销行为和长期营销战略与社会、经济、资源、环境的有机协调以及对企业长远发展的良性影响。 可见，绿色营销有两层含义：第一层主要指企业在营销活动中，谋求消费者利益、企业利益与生态环境利益的协调，既要充分满足消费者需求，实现企业利润目标，也要充分注意自然生态平衡；第二层主要是指在企业的营销活动中，谋求消费者利益、企业利益与社会环境利益的协调，既要充分满足消费者需求，实现企业利润目标，也要充分注意对社会价值观、伦理道德观的影响，倡导文明、进步、符合社会发展方向的社会风气 绿色营销有以下特征： 1、绿色营销的前提是绿色消费的出现。消费需求由低层次向高层次发展，是不可逆转的客观规律，绿色消费是较高层次的消费观念。人们的温饱等生理需求基本满足后，便会产生提高生活综合质量的要求，产生对清洁环境与产品的需要。 2、绿色营销的目标是实现可持续发展。这就要求企业多开发利用再生资源，减少资源浪费，防止环境污染。 3、绿色观念是绿色营销的指导思想。绿色营销所追求的是人类的长远利益与可持续发展，重视协调企业经营与自然环境的关系，力求实现人类行为与自然环境的融合发展。 4、绿色体制是绿色营销的制度保障。绿色营销所要实现的是人类社会的协调持续发展，因此必须有完善的政治与经...

...energy and petrochemical products. They have been in existence since the early 1900’s and have gone through a number of changes. In July, 2003 after merging with Amoco they rebranded as a ‘beyond petroleum’ company. Their logo, a sunburst of green, yellow and white, symbolizes dynamic energy in all its forms. (BP, 2010). Their ‘beyond petroleum’ tagline featured BP as a company that was concerned with the environment and its corporate social responsibility (CSR). BP’s Director of Business ethics outlined their commitment to ‘being ethical’, which included respect for human rights, avoiding harm to people and the environment , avoiding conflicts of loyalty and interest. (Broome 2003). However, as a result of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, BP’s ethics policy have been placed under extreme scrutiny, exposing them as a company whose marketing strategies is misaligned to their actions. This article looks at BP’s global ethical position with regards to their exploration in the gulf oilfields. It takes a further look at the implication that it caused to their branding and marketing strategies and suggests what marketing strategies they should adopt in order to move forward and regain sustainable competitive advantage. One of BP’s strategies is to create value for shareholders by producing energy in a way that is affordable and doesn’t damage the environment. (BP, 1999-2010). This was evidenced in their acquisition and investing in Solarex (after merging with Amoco) in 1999...

...CASE STUDY: MCDONALD’S Executive summary This case study looks to evaluate marketing within McDonald’s and will look into how it has affected McDonald’s in terms of its position within the market. Through research, a positive correlation has been revealed between how successful a company operates and how committed they are in terms of customer focus and its marketing strategy (Kloter and Armstrong, 2010). This study will demonstrate how McDonald’s marketing strategy has helped render the company a global success. This is shown through the SWOT analysis. This study has found that the pivotal ingredient in this company is the unique and effective marketing strategy. Also to be credited was that the strategy showed that there were areas which could potentially disrupt the current rate of success (in terms of monetary results) If they are not rectified. A recommendation could be to increase the amount of ‘Healthy foods’ McDonald’s currently offer, to do so McDonalds would need to invest more in their product segment of the marketing mix. Introduction In many cases a company does not become successful overnight. There are a number of key ingredients which need to be focused on, in order to achieve its potential. An important part of this is the ‘marketing strategy’. The majority of successful firms invest large sums of capital and time into tailoring their strategy focusing on the potential changes in customer levels, rivals and the environment (Bradley, 2005). McDonald’s currently...

...| A CRITICAL PERSPECTIVE ON STRATEGIC CSR AS A TOOL FOR MARKETING AND BRAND DIFFERENTIATION | | | Mattias Norén, Niklas Nygård | 2014-01-16 | | “What are the underlying reasons for abusive Strategic CSR in marketing and brand differentiation, what are the consequences and are there any solutions?” Introduction to CSR For Corporate social responsibility(CSR) a lot of different definitions exists but the one we chose to use in this report was defined by (McWilliams, Siegel och Wright)) as “actions that appear to further some social good, beyond the interests of the firm and that which is required by law”. This definition defines a wide concept that contains everything from corporate environmental strategies, employee empowerment, health and benefit plans for employees and corporate philanthropy. The linking factor between these different implementations is that corporations and businesses should expand their responsibility beyond absolute necessity and their core stakeholders group. While CSR is very modern as a defined concept it is still based on a lot of old ideas. For example many companies in the late 1800s based its business on scientific betterment which often meant that employee benefits was taken a lot further than the requirements of the law (Barley och Kunda). Today CSR has evolved to something more than the initial idea of expanded responsibility and it’s used as a tool for companies to reach goals outside of areas normally connected to CSR...

...Assignment 2.1 Ford Analysis PSPR 6208 Strategic Marketing and Communications Fall 1 2013 1. Where would you put Ford in terms of competitive position? Why? By shifting their focus, developing a new marketing strategy and focusing on the Ford brand, Ford has dramatically enhanced their competitive position and turned things around for the company. In doing so, they strategically placed themselves back at the top in terms of competitive position. This was no small feat, especially considering the fact that they were in far worse shape than most car companies as recent as 2008 (Kotler & Armstrong pg 547). Ford with the assistance of new CEO Alan Mulally fought hard against bankruptcy and even harder to gain consumer trust in the company and the brand. This strategy has helped Ford to gain a competitive advantage, especially in terms of customer satisfaction. 2. Is Ford a market-centered company? How can it improve in this area? Considering the fact that Ford currently pays attention to both customers and competitors in designing the company’s marketing strategies, I would say they are definitely a market-centered company. This may not have always been the case, as is evident from reading the case study. At some point, Ford took its eye off the market, loosing focus, especially in regards to customer needs. I think that they were driven to shift their focus by several factors, top of mind being the dire economy. Moving forward, they will need to play...

...LEADING STRATEGY There are four strategic approaches to strategy. They are low-cost leadership, differentiation, customer relationship as strategy, and network effect strategy. The low-cost leadership is successful in having the same product as rivals but delivering the product at lower prices enabling them to still assure an adequate level of profitability. Differentiation is the process by which an organization allocates people and resources to organizational tasks and establishes the task and authority relationships that allow the organization to achieve its goals. Differentiation strategy involves competing by offering goods or services that customers/clients distinguish uniqueness in ways that are important to them. The risk could possibly involve the underlying market shifting. In a clear-cut organization, differentiation is low because the division of labor is low. According to Jones (2013), typically, one person or a few people perform all organizational tasks, there are few problems with coordinating who does what, or whom, and when. With growth, however, comes complexity. In a complex organization, both the division of labor and differentiation are high. Green (2000) tells us popular understandings of development emphasize individual achievement in a context of social differentiation, in what amounts to recognition of the importance of an individual agency in bring about social transformation. In order to be successful at making...

...Social Media Marketing BUS508: Contemporary Business November 30, 2013 What is Social Media Marketing? Why has Social Media Marketing become so popular? Is it now the most effective way to advertise and market? I have chosen to first define both marketing and social media. In my analysis it will allow you to fully grasp the importance and meaning of marketing and social media. My analysis will also allow you to easily determine why Social Media Marketing has become so popular among businesses. I’m a big believer in social media so I will display that throughout my paper. With technology in this day and age people always have the Internet in the palms of their hand and social media is always a button away. What is marketing? Marketing is the activity, set of institutions, and processes for creating, communicating, delivering, and exchanging offerings that have value for customers, clients, partners, and society at large (Boone & Kurtz, 2012). Without proper marketing strategies businesses would not be able to sell their goods and services. The most effective rule to consumers is to ensure that they always get what they want and always meet their needs before they ever surface. Marketing has always been part of business, from the earliest village traders to large 21st-century organizations producing and selling complex goods and services (Boone & Kurtz, 2012). How people market has now evolved and is now more on social media than ever. Social media is one of the...

...Problem Statement Jeff Johnson, who saw that an informal Pacific style restaurant and bar on the site of a barrier island had potential for development. He then used his savings and some financial assistance from his family to build Jumpin’ Jeff’s Beach Bar on the barrier island. After Jumpin’ Jeff’s opening, Mr. Johnson soon realized that there are lots of challenges waiting for him, such as price setting, menu development, staffing issues, and cultural issues. Situation Analysis Since Jeff Johnson owns the land, Jumpin’ Jeff’s Beach Bar is the only one on this particular island. Mr. Johnson had chosen a good restaurant location, as he has a monopoly of business on the island. He can do whenever businesses he wants on the island. Mr. Johnson spent a lot of money on design elements, as every supplies and equipment is shipped from Florida. The restaurant was designed in a South Seas beach-hut style with shutters, which should be pretty eyes catching. The island itself is a barrier island, open on the eastern side to the Atlantic Ocean and the western side to the Haven. The other side of the Haven is a very small town, Kingsville, with two grocery stores, three churches, two resorts, two gift shops, and a small open-air market open on Tuesday and Saturday mornings. The Haven is popular in winter with cruising small boat sailors looking for a good anchorage in a sheltered harbor, amenities provided by the grocery stores and a place where they could order parts for their boats...

...Defining Marketing April 7, 2014 University of Phoenix Defining Marketing Marketing, in essence, is a company differentiating itself from its competitors. Organizations use marketing strategies to promote their product. Perreault, Cannon, and McCarthy define marketing as “the performance of activities that seek to accomplish an organization’s objectives by anticipating customer or client needs and directing a flow of need satisfying goods and services from producer to customer or client” (2011, p. 6). Companies must focus their resources on these products to increase sales and competitive advantage. According to Kotler and Keller, “Marketing is about identifying and meeting human and social needs” (2012, p. 5). Companies use marketing strategies to spark interest, promote, and educate the consumer. A dental company must continuously reinvent itself from a marketing standpoint. In a town with a population of over 117,000 people and over 40 dentists the demand for dentistry is always present, but so is the competition. It is important for a dental office to keep their name at the forefront of dentistry. It is vital that an organization not only creates an exceptional product or service, but also delivers what they promised. An organization is only as good as their consumers perceive them to be, so it is greatly important that their marketing begins in-house with their current patients. There is no more cost-effective way to market than word-of-mouth...

...The importance of marketing in Law Firms Introduction The importance of good and accurate marketing in the legal industry is growing as a response to the high competition among the industry and because of the innovations in technology. In the past, the common marketing practice among law firms to publicize their business and services depended exclusively on word of mouth. Over the years and due to the wide offering and competition among law firms, the above has radically changed and lawyers and law firms are now taking a more aggressive and proactive approach to market their firms and shopping their services within the market. Why should a law firm focus on efficient marketing strategies? Due to the fact that today lawyers live in a very competitive market place and clients are sophisticated, demanding and price sensitive, lawyers and law firms need to spend a great portion of their budget and time to think and determine the best way to provide upscale offering and services in order to get a competitive advantage and a wider market share. Creating value and offer a differentiated service and product are key factors for the law firms in order to get hired by clients. Every person that is part of the law firm should strive to offer a premium service sometimes in detriment of quantity. Since clients are price sensitive, having a better product than competitors create value and a competitive advantage for the law firm. Law firms should be selective when choosing work and clients...
