The substantive challenge requires deriving optimal pricing decisions and understanding how the parameters of the demand function impact optimal prices and the associated profit. We test the case study in a marketing analytics exam and discuss the performance of 134 students. Beyond assessing student performance in an exam, the case study facilitates teaching through in-class group work or assignments.

However, further insight regarding the role of BDACs in the processes of SP creation can be provided by deploying complementary analytics techniques, namely importance-performance map analysis (IPMA), necessary condition analysis (NCA), and combined importance-performance map analysis (cIPMA). This paper applies these techniques to a sample of 210 Spanish companies with the potential for circularity and environmental impact. The results show that BDACs exert a positive total effect toward achieving SP. However, companies still have the potential to improve and benefit from these capabilities. In addition, BDACs are a necessary condition (must-have factor) for all dependent variables in the model, including SP. In this case, high levels of BDACs are required to achieve excellence in SP, justifying organizational initiatives that prioritize the improvement of BDACs to achieve SP goals.</p>","PeriodicalId":43041,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Marketing Analytics","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141152777","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}

{"title":"Beyond theory: a systematic review of strengths and limitations in technology acceptance models through an entrepreneurial lens","authors":"Ramy A. Rahimi, Grace S. Oh","doi":"10.1057/s41270-024-00318-x","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1057/s41270-024-00318-x","url":null,"abstract":"<p>In today’s fiercely competitive business landscape, startups face numerous challenges in achieving scalability and sustainability. The integration of cutting-edge technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), blockchain, and the Internet of Things (IoT) presents promising solutions to these challenges. However, understanding the intricacies of technology acceptance within the startup environment becomes paramount. Technology Acceptance Models (TAMs) have long served as foundational frameworks for understanding technology adoption and integration, but their effectiveness is hindered by inherent limitations. These limitations demand further exploration, particularly when viewed through the entrepreneurial lens. This paper offers a comprehensive analysis of the strengths and limitations inherent in TAM and its extensions, alongside other prominent technology acceptance models. By incorporating an entrepreneurial perspective, the analysis reveals additional challenges stemming from the dynamic nature of startup ecosystems. From a pragmatic standpoint, this paper provides actionable insights for technology-driven entrepreneurial organizations to navigate innovation and technology adoption decisions more intelligently. From a theoretical perspective, it contributes to the refinement and evolution of technology acceptance models, particularly in the context of entrepreneurial ventures. In light of these limitations, the paper offers strategic recommendations for future research endeavors. These include encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration, contextualizing models to suit startup dynamics, conducting longitudinal studies to capture evolving user perceptions, accounting for individual differences in technology adoption, and validating emerging models to reflect contemporary realities. Emphasis is placed on the entrepreneurial imperative of agility and adaptability in navigating the ever-changing landscape of technology acceptance. Moreover, the paper underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and delineates practical implications for organizations and practitioners aiming to sustain technology acceptance and successful implementation within dynamic startup environments. By addressing these constraints, researchers can pave the way for the development of more robust and comprehensive models, better equipped to clarify and predict technology acceptance and usage patterns. Ultimately, this research underscores the critical need for ongoing refinement and innovation within the realm of technology acceptance, providing actionable insights to propel both scholarly discourse and entrepreneurial practice forward.</p>","PeriodicalId":43041,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Marketing Analytics","volume":"64 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141152765","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 volume of data poses challenges for humans; however, using automated content analysis techniques frees the researcher to focus on the distilled data. Even though multiple forms of text analysis techniques have been discussed in prior marketing literature, few articles simplify the techniques enough to allow for easy adoption by readers. This article discusses three text analysis techniques and then applies these techniques to a dataset of 1287 newspaper articles following the major demonetization announcement in India. It provides an interesting insight into the life of the Indian citizen faced with a government-mandated drive that demonetized 86% of the currency, endangering everyday retail transactions in a cash-dominated economy. Interesting insights emerging from simple techniques such as comparative word frequencies and sentiment analysis are presented which highlight the coping techniques used by the people to continue retail transactions. The initial desperation led to attempts to use the demonetized currency notes by splurging on gold, liquor, and fuel. Once the awareness about the absence of valid currency seeped in, people focused on more thought-out attempts to sustain normal retail transactions. Further, topic modeling was applied to discover the underlying topics in the data corpus, which further revealed the repertoire of coping strategies used by the people. A topic that stood out in the analysis was related to retail-focused mobile payment services, which subsequently found large-scale acceptance in the economy. The article drives home the point that while automated content analysis may provide a quick and simplified view of the data, the role of the researcher in qualitatively interpreting the data is not trivial.</p>","PeriodicalId":43041,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Marketing Analytics","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140942012","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}

With the spread of technologies, managers face dilemmas how to relate to existing technologies. One prominent contemporary technology is big data (BD). While research articulates its importance, it ignores its combination with existing traditional systems (i.e., small data; SD) and how firms cultivate this development. This study examines the impact of SD, BD that constitute marketing analytics, and their intersected relationship on data-driven insights en route implications on marketing innovation. Based on quantitative and qualitative studies and ambidexterity framework, the study proposes the combination of SD and BD (data ambidexterity) as key driver of marketing insights and innovation. A conceptual model was tested using regressions, path analyses, and robustness checks. Findings show that new data technologies should not overshadow older ones and suggest a hierarchy of analytic effects (SD &lt; BD &lt; SD × BD). While BD has a stronger effect than SD on insights, their combination is more beneficial than each in isolation. Moreover, the effect of this combination on marketing innovation is mediated through data-driven insights.

Using personality traits from the Big 5 Personality Traits and the 3M Model of Motivation and Personality, we construct a model to study the predictive relationships to Mindfulness. Results show that mindfulness is related to impulse buying, either affectively or cognitively. The more mindful the consumer is, the less likely he/she will make an impulse buy. Additionally, consciousness did not positively affect the need for arousal or material things. The more conscientious you are, the less the need to be aroused. This indicates that companies need to differentiate between very conscientious consumers and consumers who are not. The more a consumer looks for information, the less likely any marketing cues, such as advertisements or social media, will arouse him/her.
