retailer, etc.

strong enough to pull customers in

want– Large retailers can basically tell suppliers what to
do

» Selling in stores and online with different prices
![Page 38: Chapter 10 Marketing Channels to Create Value for Customers.pptx](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/563db948550346aa9a9bd331/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
Channel Dynamics
• Vertical versus Horizontal conflicts– Vertical is among channel members– Horizontal is between organizations• Company A and Company B both want exclusive rights
to sell a product
![Page 39: Chapter 10 Marketing Channels to Create Value for Customers.pptx](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/563db948550346aa9a9bd331/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
Channel Dynamics
• Ethical cooperation– Some firms have a positive image and just by
dealing with them, the positive benefits can be had– Avoid manipulating the supply chain for personal
gain• Big discounts to make sales numbers against the better
judgement of the rep
![Page 40: Chapter 10 Marketing Channels to Create Value for Customers.pptx](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/563db948550346aa9a9bd331/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Channel Integration
• Vertical marketing system- buying along the channel lines– Manufacturer buying a retail store
• Conventional marketing system- channel members have no affiliation with one another– Sometimes just a one-time sale
• Horizontal marketing system- Two companies at the same channel level agree to cooperate with one another to sell products– Two manufacturers coming together to sell a product is not
collusion, unless there are some rules they break
