Sustainable marketing budgets should create a balance between market needs and the need to use existing resources as rationally as possible. By recognizing that certain internal and external factors may cause fluctuations in sustainable marketing budgets and have a direct impact on the expected turnover, managers could capture opportunities to channel these budgets into business areas with higher return on investment (ROI). This study highlights the trends of sustainable marketing budgets in the case of one company and assesses their impact on its business turnover. Based on the assumed objective, this study provides explanations regarding the efficiency of sustainable marketing budgets in terms of benefits and, more precisely, on turnover dynamics. From the methodological perspective, the use of the coefficient of variation method allows the assessment of the longitudinal data homogeneity, reflecting the dynamics of the indicators, sustainable marketing budgets and turnovers. The results reveal that monthly sustainable marketing budgets have a significant impact on monthly turnover dynamics, considering the quadratic trend in the case of monthly sustainable marketing budgets and the exponential trend of monthly turnovers. From a managerial perspective, the implications of this study reveal that the more you invest in sustainable marketing, the more revenue your company could earn.","PeriodicalId":387203,"journal":{"name":"SRPN: Sustainable Business (Topic)","volume":"41 9","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131892818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mar. 29, 2012 \u0000A Bowl Of Good: Defining The Partnership \u0000Katrina Didot was on her way to what she felt sure was going to be a defining meeting. She was going to see if it would be possible to hammer out the terms of a business partnership between her and a friend, Rachael Dorsey. It was early 2009 in Staunton, Virginia. As she passed the fork where West Beverly Street met Montgomery Avenue, she reflected on how far she had come to get to this point. \u0000In just a few years, she had gone from being a clinical social worker who liked to cook for her family to a restaurant owner. Deals had gone well, and deals had gone badly. She had run her own kitchen. When her rent was increased, she decided to leave that location and sell her locally famous soups at farmer's markets instead. \u0000Her local organic food business, A Bowl of Good, looked like it was on the upswing now, and there was a chance to expand operations. In order to do that, Didot knew she needed a partner to shoulder some of the work. Didot had the recipes and knowledge—and she had drive. She needed someone who could make the trains run on time and ensure things flowed smoothly when it came to operations. She had a hunch that Dorsey would be great in that role, but she had been burned before and knew she needed to proceed carefully. Didot had in the past entered into agreements that went sour, and she had been taken advantage of by some people she'd trusted. If she moved forward with a new partnership, she wanted it to work. \u0000. . .","PeriodicalId":387203,"journal":{"name":"SRPN: Sustainable Business (Topic)","volume":"2012 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128886530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ultimate aim is to enlighten the process through which the food supply chain firms come to donate surplus food to food banks.Design/methodology/approachSurplus food and recoverability were defined as the key terms of the problem. 12 exploratory case studies were conducted to segment the manufacturing and retail sectors, to assess recoverability in each segment, and to establish the protocols for descriptive case studies. A multiple case-study approach was used and 83 firms were investigated.FindingsThe primary source of surplus food is shown to result from products reaching the internal sell-by date, i.e. the date by which manufacturers and warehouses must supply perishable products. Donation to food banks is found to be a relevant management practice in the ambient and chilled manufacturing segments and at retail distribution centres, while frozen food companies and retail stores are found to rely nearly exclusively on waste disposal.Research limitations/implications The degree to which our findings are specific to Italy is an issue to investigate. Future research should target surplus food management in farming and food services, and assess the cost effectiveness of alternative management channels. Practical and social implicationsThe paper highlights the changes required to increase the amount of food recovered by food banks. It also summarizes the steps for establishing a structured procedure for managing surplus food within firms.What is original/value of paper The paper offers quantitative evidence on a relatively untapped yet socially relevant topic, i.e. the upstream process of food recovery and donation.","PeriodicalId":387203,"journal":{"name":"SRPN: Sustainable Business (Topic)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121712207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Metodologia : Il contributo e sviluppato sulla base dell’Approccio Sistemico Vitale (ASV) sia come metodologia di indagine dei fenomeni sociali sia come metodologia di governo delle organizzazioni. Risultati : Attraverso l’impiego di concetti quali ‘rilevanza’, ‘consonanza’ e ‘risonanza’, l’approccio proposto conduce alla rappresentazione di un sistema territoriale vitale, capace di sopravvivere nel proprio contesto creando valore per i sovrasistemi di riferimento e determinando le condizioni per un equilibrio sostenibile. Limiti della ricerca : Il paper offre un framework teorico-concettuale che potra essere oggetto di studio e di ulteriori sviluppi anche attraverso l’analisi di casi reali e verifiche empiriche. Implicazioni pratiche : Lo schema generale proposto e adottabile, congiuntamente ai modelli manageriali consolidati, tanto dall’attore istituzionale, che vede il territorio nel suo complesso come sistema vitale, quanto dall’attore imprenditoriale, che vede nel territorio un fertile contesto di azione dal quale trarre e al quale offrire opportunita di sviluppo in un intreccio armonico di finalita e in un’ottica condivisa di sostenibilita. Originalita del lavoro : L’originalita del paper risiede nel proporre un modello di sintesi per uno sviluppo sinergico del territorio che catalizzi istanze aziendali, di contesto e ambientali, promuovendo la sostenibilita nei rapporti impresa-territorio.
