Library marketing is a relatively new concept in Librarianship in this part of the globe; therefore, this chapter looks at what librarians think about Library marketing in terms of the new terminology, such as the use of customers instead of patrons to address their user; by explaining the paradigm shift from the orthodox librarianship to the modern one. The chapter explains in detail what library marketing is all about, what the library should market, the types of marketing strategies that can be employed in the library, and finally maps out all the marketing styles that can be adopted for a successful library marketing mission.

This chapter examines the paradigm shift in the domain of marketing and promotion of Hindi cinema in the new millennium. The post-millennium Hindi film industry has resorted to the multimedia marketing of films with the incorporation of digital and social media marketing platforms as one of the key marketing strategies of contemporary Hindi cinema. Furthermore, in the modern scenario, release strategies such as saturated release and shorter release window have also become commonplace. The chapter elucidates on the impact of such practices on the narratives of Hindi cinema. It thereby considers the prevalence of high-concept style as the principal character is the trait of contemporary Bollywood cinema.

The achievement of entrepreneurial objectives by tourism entrepreneurs is dependent on the existence of a dynamic, attractive, safe and competitive tourism destination capable of creating and delivering memorable experiential value which enhances tourist satisfaction and subsequent behaviouralintentions. However, the menace occasioned by the COVID-19 pandemic has posed a critical challenge and a bitter contradiction with the expectations and plans of tourism entrepreneurs all over the world. This explains why several attraction sites and other tourism and hospitality service organisations are either shut or operating at dismal operational levels with the consequent loss of jobs, leisure time as well as filing for bankruptcy claims, etc. The situation calls for a paradigm shift in destination marketing strategy. This present study seeks to situate the quest to achieve tourism entrepreneurial objectives during this austere and uncertain period (POST COVID-19) on the ability of tourism service providers to craft, implant and implement sustainable tourism marketing strategies. The study proposes academic, stakeholder and marketing implications.

La percepción de marca es la forma de asegurar que los consumidores reciben la información que queremos transmitir, basada en nuestra estrategia de marketing. Pero hay que entender si las características sociodemográficas son un elemento por el cual las personas pertenecientes a los diferentes grupos de población perciben la marca de forma diferente, lo que justificaría la utilización de estrategias de marketing diversificadas para cada uno de estos grupos. Esto está de acuerdo con el cambio de paradigma que se está produciendo en el campo del marketing, en el que el target (los usuarios de servicios deportivos) ya no es suficiente para dirigir la estrategia debido a que es muy genérico, sino que lo que tenemos que hacer es identificar dentro de ese target a nuestro buyer, nuestro perfil de comprador ideal en función de diferentes características específicas. Este buyer persona es diferente del resto y por tanto requiere estrategias de marketing individualizadas para llegar a ellos de manera más efectiva. El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar la percepción de marca de los usuarios de un servicio deportivo público, para luego realizar un análisis comparativo basado en las características sociodemográficas de los usuarios con la intención de saber qué perfiles de usuarios perciben las variables de marca de forma diferente, lo que estaría sugiriendo la aplicación de diferentes estrategias de marca adaptadas a cada uno de ellos.Abstract. Brand perception is the way to ensure that consumers receive the information we want to convey, based on our marketing strategy. However, we have to understand whether sociodemographic characteristics are an element by which people belonging to different population groups perceive the brand differently, which would justify the use of diversified marketing strategies for each of these groups. This agrees with the paradigm shift that is taking place in the field of marketing, in which having a target (users of sports services) is no longer sufficient for directing a marketing strategy due to the fact that such target is too generic; instead, we have to identify our buyer within that target, and our ideal buyer profile based on different specific characteristics. This person buyer is different from the rest and therefore individualized marketing strategies are required to reach them more effectively. The aim of this research is to analyse the brand perception of users of a public sports service, and then make a comparative analysis based on their socio-demographic characteristics, with the intention of knowing which user profiles perceive brand variables differently, which would suggest the application of different brand strategies adapted to each of them.
