With increasing competition from external information sources academic libraries need to undertake strong marketing initiatives to redress the balance. Evidence-based practice and evaluation of internal services may help to secure the future permanency of the academic library. In light of this, an initiative was undertaken by the Engineering Team at the University Library, Loughborough University to market its services and resources to the Engineering Faculty. A survey was utilised as the marketing tool. It was made available in electronic format and marketed via the Library website, Team Blog and targeted emails. Evaluation of the results enabled the Team to further raise its profile by taking various issues directly to the Faculty and actively marketing avenues of communication, training sessions and the Institutional Repository. As a marketing tool the survey approach was largely successful and subject teams may wish to utilise this approach as a component of their marketing strategy.

This chapter takes up a case study that provides a window onto the shifting cultural significance of jazz during the 1980s, a decade that saw both the emergence of neoclassical jazz in the music industry and the consolidation of new strategies of market segmentation in the advertising industry. The present project examines internal corporate correspondence at the Brown and Williamson tobacco firm to trace the evolving understanding of jazz in the company’s formulation of its “Kool Music” campaign for its Kool brand of menthol cigarettes in the early 1980s. Brown and Williamson’s correspondence during this period foregrounds not only the reasoning behind its embrace of jazz as a symbolic property from the outset of the campaign but also why it would eventually come to abandon it. Brown and Williamson’s “Kool Music” campaign highlights the very different uses to which jazz was put in an earlier moment of targeted marketing. Brown and Williamson struggled to identify the music’s affective resonances, its appeal to specific race and class demographics, and its potential usage as a marketing tool. In this context, the internal debates surrounding jazz at Brown and Williamson help to make sense of the music’s later enlistment as a signifier of upscale consumerism.

This case study explores how Falken Tire Corporation (FTC) leveraged motorsports to build brand credibility, and how consumer-based brand equity developed in virtual fan communities via social media marketing. This brand credibility and equity ultimately helped the company to establish powerful marketing relationships, and connect with distinctly different consumer groups. Findings suggest that consumers may be adept integrators of marketing communication channels and across media. Companies with strong virtual communities may benefit from the case study suggestions that are provided and discussed based on the theoretical perspective of customer-based brand equity. Marketing scholars and practitioners alike may find this case study of interest due to the growing desire by companies to develop strong bonds with consumers and their interest in effectively using social media as a marketing tool.

Purpose Marketing practitioners consider packaging as a promising marketing tool, but current academic research covers mostly regular packages. Filling this gap, this paper aims to analyze why and how companies use limited edition packaging (LEP), which is defined as a scarcity product tactic, using the package exclusively to create a limited offer. Design/methodology/approach This study adopted a grounded theory methodology and used a qualitative collective case study design by analyzing 175 LEP launches in the beverage sector between 2000 and 2019. Findings The empirical-based conceptualization of LEP tactics provided here describes the crucial marketing dimensions in which strategic decisions are made regarding objective of release, implementation and related marketing mix decisions. Results show that LEP tactics serve parallel brands, sales and product strategy-related goals; LEPs are characterized by intensity, theme (occasion) and design characteristics, such as typicality, and marketers use various marketing mix combinations (i.e., pricing, distribution and advertising) in relation to the LEP offer. Originality/value To the best of author’s knowledge, it is the first conceptualization of this special type of scarcity tactic. This study also assists academics by providing an agenda for future research in this domain.
