It has become standard practice for consumers to customize products instead ofchoosing off-the-shelf solutions. A new practice is that consumers can directly share and discuss their customized products with their peers via social product configurators. We examine how the type of communication affects peer decision-making and satisfaction in such configurators. Drawing on research on mass customization, electronic word of mouth, and narcissism, we propose that narcissistic communication is crucial to understanding the effect of a shared configuration. A series of three studies demonstrates that consumers scoring high (vs. low) on narcissism are more likely to share their customized product online as a sample configuration and to use I-centered communication to describe that configuration. Such narcissistic communication makes peers adjust their own customized product to the sample configuration and to evaluate their own product less favorably. These findings suggest that narcissistic communication influences consumers’ decision-making by increasing the likelihood to conform, potentially negatively impacting consumer satisfaction. The social power of narcissists has implications for both marketing research and practice.

Brand equity (BE) and customer equity (CE) are the two crucial and closely linked concepts in marketing research. This research outlines a new conceptual framework to explore the relationship between the critical elements of BE and CE. Furthermore, using marketing activities, the study quantifies the effect of these activities on CE. The value of CE is computed based on a customer lifetime value (CLV) model in which linear, logistic, and beta regression are used to predict BE, customer acquisition, and customer share of wallet, respectively. We conducted an empirical analysis through questionnaires in an elevator company. The results reveal that brand knowledge and brand differentiation positively relate to customer acquisition. Also, for both existing customers and prospects, brand differentiation plays an important role in the share of wallet. The findings also show that marketing activities have a positive and significant impact on brand knowledge and brand differentiation, and consequently, through the mediating role of BE between marketing activities and CE, on customer acquisition and share of wallet.

Public procurement in Ukraine is an area where marketing is underused. Marketing potential in public tendering remains poorly understood. The article is devoted to the study of this potential for improving the performance of domestic state customers. Marketing in the state customer's activities is limited by a number of factors. This is dependence on legislation and competitive trading procedures. The main directions of marketing in the activities of the state customer are public relations and market research. Domestic state customers do not pay sufficient attention to public relations, which leads to a low level of confidence of business and society in tenders. The central tool of market research for the state customer are market consultations. It includes several stages, such as an invitation to participate in market consultations, filling out a questionnaire by an enterprise, holding a meeting of a prospective customer with a potential bidder and preparing a report. Marketing research of the market is used insufficiently by state customers. Market consultations are mainly addressed to those customers who are financed by international financial organizations. At the same time, market consultations hold enormous potential to improve the efficiency of public procurement. They allow you to correctly formulate the requirements for the procurement item and its expected value. This speeds up the process of preparing tender documents. In addition, market consultations draw the attention of a potential tenderer to this state customer. This contributes to an increase in the number of tenderers and to a decrease in the price of the subject of the procurement. As a result of the study of the theory and practice of using marketing in public procurement, it was proposed to introduce social and ethical marketing in this area.
