Conventional Marketing System傳統行銷系統 (p.325) • A CMS consists of one or more independent producers, wholesalers, and retailers. • Each is a separate business seeking to maximize its own profits, perhaps even at the expense of the system as a whole. • No channel member has much control over the other members, and no formal means exists for assigning roles and resolving channel conflict.
Channel Behavior (p.324) • The channel will be most effective when: • Each member is assigned tasks it can do best. • All members cooperate to attain overall channel goals. 各司其職,大家通力合作不可能 • If this does not happen, conflict occurs: • Horizontal Conflict occurs among firms at the same level of the channel (e.g., between different dealers of the same brand). • Vertical Conflict occurs between different levels of the same channel (e.g., between a brand and its franchisee). • Some conflict can be healthy competition.
通路衝突型態 • 水平衝突(horizontal conflict) • 相同層級的通路成員所產生的衝突 • 與過度競爭、「撈過界」等有關 • 例如: 爭奪市場、破壞形象、不遵守協定 • 垂直衝突(vertical conflict) • 不同層級的通路成員之間所產生的衝突 • 常導因於通路成員間彼此權力的消長 • 例如: 成本/利潤衡突、進貨特別規定、付款條件、專賣要求、強行之廣告費促銷費、上架費、品牌戰爭 通路一直吵一直吵… 怎麼辦? 就…整合吧!
Conventional Marketing Channel Vs. Vertical Marketing System 整合前—傳統行銷系統 整合後—垂直行銷系統
Vertical Marketing System • A distribution channel structure in which producers, wholesalers, and retailers act as a unified system. • One channel member owns the other, has contracts with them, or has so much power that they all cooperate.
Channel Behavior and Organization • Types of vertical marketing systems: • Corporate VMS (One channel member owns the other) 某公司擁有其他公司,所有權的整合 • Contractual VMS (One channel member has contracts with them) 用契約結盟 • Franchise organization • Administered VMS (One channel member has so much power that they all cooperate)管理方式整合 (有一公司擁有支配力,別人不得不聽他)
Corporate VMS: Vertical marketing system that combines successive stage of production and distribution under single ownership. Channel leadership is established via common ownership. Contractual VMS: Vertical marketing system in which independent firms at different levels of production/distribution join together through contracts to obtain more economies of scale than they could alone.

Channel Behavior and Organization (p.326) • Administered VMS • A vertical marketing system that coordinates successive stages of production and distribution, not through common ownership or contractual ties, but through the size and power of one of the parties. • Leadership through the size and power of dominant channel members. • Leadership could be manufacturer or retailer. • Wal-Mart、統一、玩具反斗城
Channel Behavior and Organization (p.327) • Horizontal Marketing System • Two or more companies at one level join together to follow a new marketing opportunity. • McDonald’s recently joined forces with Sinopec, China’s largest gasoline retailers, to place restaurants at more than 30,000 gas stations in China. • 佳德鳯梨酥與旅行社 • Coca-Cola and Nestle、101煙火秀 • 信用卡與旅行社 • Nova 整合電子電訊經銷商形成水平行銷系統--產生更大效率、提升競爭力

Channel Behavior and Organization • Changing channel organization: • Disintermediationis the cutting out (刪去) of marketing channel intermediaries by product or service producers, or the displacement (取代) of traditional by radical (極端的) new types of intermediaries. The Internet has made the disintermediation of many traditional retailers possible. (eg)全國最大藥妝網、統一與樂天、AMAZON
