MKTG306: Electronic Commerce: Marketing Channels Decisions

This optional unit will introduce students to the topic of electronic commerce. Issues to be addressed include a review of 'net' developments and their application to marketing channels decisions. Of particular importance is the role of the 'net' as a communication facility in sourcing and distribution decisions. Electronic commerce has brought about a review of marketing strategy in most organisations and the implications for product, pricing, communications as well as distribution decisions are considered. Electronic commerce has played a major role in shifting the emphasis of the supply chain towards becoming a demand chain or value chain; the roles of technology management, relationship management and knowledge management are discussed in the context of the value chain.
