| Abstract: | In recent years, usage of the internet in a developing economy like Pakistan rose exponentially which also enable users to use social media and eventually buy and order anything online. The trend of marketing changed all over the country as renowned brands and businesses started to shift their respective platforms. Some faced difficulties in that while others reached new heights of accomplishments. The online market is quite different from the conventional physical market and retailer’s sales generally depend upon the buyer’s mood, attitude, and behaviors which comprises trust, purchase intent, and motivational factors. Retailers must be aware of the ongoing trends and know-how and when to post what. For the purpose of the study, the data was collected from 265 respondents and Partial Least Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) was used for the analysis. The results showed that motivational factors i.e. Social, Empowerment, and Remuneration have a significant relationship with Trust and Online Purchasing Intent. From the results, several implications can be derived for marketers, policymakers, and online retailer. |

| Abstract: | "Objective - The main objective of the present study was to investigate, using a sample of 486 Slovak consumers, whether there are differences between Generations X, Y, and Z in how often they use single-channel and cross-channel shopping during the process of buying fashion products. Methodology/Technique - As it turned out, consumers of all generations, regardless of differences, have adopted the innovative online way of shopping due to the development of new technologies, and they seem to be very willing to combine it with the traditional one during the shopping process. Applying the Kruskal Wallis test and boxplots showed that significant differences were measured between Generation X and Y, between Generation X and Z, but not between Generation Y and Z. Findings - Therefore, the results of the analysis suggest that the oldest generation of consumers (Generation X), achieves the lowest frequency in terms of the purchase journey in the mode of searching and at the same time buying fashion products via the internet. The research with its findings contributes to the current literature on the general understanding of consumer behavior from the perspective of single-channel and cross-channel shopping. Novelty - Understanding which shopping channels are preferred by consumers leads to improved consumer trust, increased consumer loyalty, and also increased conversion rate, thus creating more significant sales opportunities for retailers. In light of the ever-changing market environment and the development of new technologies, the results can also be beneficial for retailers, as it is essential to monitor the purchase journey and consumer behaviour continuously. Type of Paper - Empirical" |

| Abstract: | Trademarks are useful territorial marketing policies contributing to the economic growth of a certain region. However, the complexity of these strategies from a marketing and legal perspective requires a deeper understanding of the functioning of trademarks. We investigate these dynamics for the trademark “Prodotti di Qualità” (PQ), a territorial marketing initiative of Apulia Region (Italy) aiming at enhancing agri-food products with regulated high-quality standards, raising awareness among consumers and promoting marketing and sales of such products. We adopt a multidisciplinary approach to conduct a prospective analysis of marketing issues and a perspective analysis on legal issues. We conclude that, in face of some benefits for users in terms of reduced asymmetric information between consumers and producers, a stronger communication and promotion campaign would increase consumers’ awareness and producers’ confidence, also contributing to avoid the overlap of the PQ trademarks with other legal forms of labelling, such as geographical indications and certification trademarks. Policy interventions in this direction would be beneficial for the future development of the Apulian territorial marketing. |
