Commerce Research Project

Business to business (B2B) markets present unique challenges and opportunities for marketers that differ significantly from business to consumer (B2C) markets. Business customers do not buy in the same way as end-consumers do; they take a professional approach to buying, have to deliver value for multiple stakeholders, are driven by different needs, use different and more complex decision criteria and respond to different marketing approaches than do end-consumers. Marketers need to apply specific strategies to develop value offerings that have to ‘fit’ into complex business processes and meet the needs of multiple stakeholders, communicate those offerings to stimulate purchase behaviour, and work to sustain long lasting business relationships with customers.To deal with this complexity and develop strong B2B marketing skills, this unit applies services and B2B marketing theory, frameworks, practices and tools to address the intangibility and co-created nature of most augmented products and services which require the integration of multiple value-added steps including operations management, human resource systems and technology in the design of services. This theory base equips students with the tools to sense, understand, and design services that meet complicated multi-stakeholder needs, cut through buying processes, and help B2B marketers build long term customer relationships.﻿Please Note: If it’s your first time studying a Curtin University subject you’ll need to complete their compulsory ‘Academic Integrity Program’.
