This course focuses on business marketing, e.g. industrial products and services. Different industries will also be studied (i.e. raw materials, industrial equipments, professional services, etc.) to provide a vision as large as possible. Therefore, our learning objectives are:
1. Understanding the fundamental principles of business marketing
2. Developing analytical and decision-making capacities in term of business marketing and strategy
3. Providing an universal, multi-sectors, and international approach
4. Using case studies and highlighting business practices based on experience
This course explores decision-making and activities involving business-to-business (i.e., industrial, organizational, institutional, or governmental) transactions and provides fresh ideas for innovative business marketing. Business-to-business transactions occur when organizations acquire goods and services from (or sell them to) other businesses. Business-to-business activities pertaining to buying, market segmentation, positioning, pricing, communication, physical distribution and customer service, sales management, and other activities are examined within the context of a framework that views business market management as the process of understanding, creating, and delivering value to customers. Best practices and new concepts from the business-to-business sector will be examined. A global perspective is deliberately chosen to provide the most compelling examples from America, Europe, or Asia.
