Walter Taplin here presents the first fruits of his exhaustive enquiry into the causes of this massive feature of contemporary life. Advertising has deeper and more interesting sources than the mere ...desire of manufacturers to secure markets, or of high-pressure salesmen to secure commissions. Taplin explores the nature of human wants, examines the functions and limitations of information, and distinguishes the good from the bad in the arts of persuasion. His approach to the subject is indeed a new one, and of the greatest value to all who wish to understand one of the most powerful forces of the day.

Sales promotion (SP) is an inevitable tool in the marketing communications mix, especially in the FMCG
markets, due to pressures such as retailers’ growing demands and increasing competition. This ...has proven to be an issue for many companies, especially those with a premium brand positioning and those concerned about the impact that SP might have on the long-term image of the company. Despite the fact that literature is replete with research on SP, it seems to be vastly generalized and mostly focused on price reductions. Thus, this paper aims to analyze and discuss the issue of the long-term impact that SP has on companies, especially on premium brands in the FMCG markets. It concludes that, when used properly and strategically, SP may have a positive long-term impact on brands.

Nearly everyone within a company is involved in selling at one level or another. Yet, the majority of those people are not professional frontline salespeople - they have never received any training ...in selling or in dealing with customers. As a result, opportunities are missed and, worst, you may even have wrecked the relationship with the customer for the long term.
In der freien Wirtschaft ist es üblich, dass die Anbieter von Waren und Dienstleistungen diese eigenständig vermarkten und dabei mit anderen Anbietern gleicher oder ähnlicher Produkte konkurrieren. ...Aus ökonomischer Perspektive scheint dieses Konzept in der Regel die beste Methode zu sein, um wirtschaftliche Effizienz zu erreichen. Im Gegensatz dazu werden die TV-Rechte seit der Gründung der Fußball-Bundesliga vom Deutschen Fußball-Bund (DFB) bzw. jetzt von der Deutschen Fußball-Liga (DFL) zentral vermarktet. Der zuständige Verband bezieht im deutschen Profi-Fußball somit eine Monopolstellung, die mit einer Reihe von ökonomischen Folgen und Problemen verbunden ist. Zur Rechtfertigung wird an erster Stelle das Argument angeführt, dass nur eine Zentralvermarktung der Fernsehrechte an den Spielen der Fußball-Bundesliga eine gleichmäßige Umverteilung der TV-Einnahmen für die Vereine sicherstellt. Die relativ egalitäre Aufteilung dieser Erlöse soll unter den Bundesligisten die sportliche Chancengleichheit und damit den Spannungsgrad der Liga erhöhen. Im Rahmen dieser Studie wird gezeigt, dass eine gleichmäßige Einnahmenumverteilung kein Vermarktungsmonopol der DFL erfordert, da die Fernsehgelder unter einer dezentralen Vermarktung (individueller Verkauf der TV-Rechte durch die Vereine) mindestens genauso gut umverteilt werden können, wie es derzeit bei der Zentralvermarktung der Fall ist. Ferner würde eine Ungleichverteilung infolge einer dezentralen Vermarktung der Fernseh-Einnahmen nicht zwangläufig dazu führen, dass auch die sportliche Attraktivität der Bundesliga vermindert wird. Neben dem Qualitätspotential des einzelnen Spielers sind die Tagesform, die aktuelle Motivation, das Glück sowie das mannschaftliche Zusammenwirken als Team für den sportlichen Erfolg entscheidend. Letztendlich kann bei der praktizierten Zentralvermarktung der
Bundesliga-TV-Rechte auch das Argument eines Transaktionskostenvorteils nicht gerechtfertigt werden, da die Bedeutung der Transaktionskosten in Relation zum Transaktionsvolumen vernachlässigbar gering ist. Des Weiteren wird in dieser Ausarbeitung aufgezeigt, dass die ausgeübte Vermarktungsform mit diversen rechtlichen Problemen behaftet ist. Eine Zentralvermarktung der Fernsehrechte ist somit sowohl ökonomisch als auch juristisch nicht zu rechtfertigen.
