FIRM PERFORMANCE?
Source: Homborg & Wielgos (2022)
Digital Marketing Capabilities (DCM) contribute to firm profitability beyond
the influence of Classical Marketing Capabilities (CMC).
- There is an interaction effect between DCM and CMC – both can jointly hurt
or benefit firm profitability, depending on moderating contingencies. - The simultaneous employment of DMCs and CMCs has a positive effect on
firm profitability if customer orientation is high and a negative effect of
customer orientation is low. - Competitor orientation lowers the deployment of DMCs and CMCs resulting
in lower firm profitability - The simultaneous deployment of DMCs and CMCs is particularly valuable
when firms face rapid changes in dynamic environments.

users to make the potential platform appealing to
third parties.

network effects - charge third parties and earn from
generated dataèreconsider value
proposition of your product - There are no free online products, you pay
with your data - Risk: if it is for free, it is not worth anything,
data privacy? - If it is free online, you are the product (data)
What is the price model - Freemium?
- Combination between for “free“ and
„premium“ - Users who are just interested in a basic
product or service receive it for free, if a
service with higher quality is preferred, the
user can opt for a subscription fee - Target more consumer segments, generate
cash-flow that finances the other segment - attract new customers, no costly advertising
campaigns are necessary - Also not paying users generate data
(understand the customer better and
improve product, monetarize data)
Example: Spotify
What is the price model - Subscription?
- Includes yearly or monthly
payment, not a completely new
form of pricing - Safety of capacity consumption
and/or product use, offers price
security - efficient for building customer
loyalty and especially interesting
for heavy users - entrance hurdle
Examples: Netflix, Disney+, HBO, HelloFresh
What is the price model - Dynamic pricing?
- firms charge varying prices for the same product
where the difference is based on customer, location
or product, these firms are said to practice the
strategy of dynamic pricing - prices can vary due to specific factors is not openly
communicated to consumers - Not primarily for new customer acquisition
- Typical examples: dynamic prices over time (e.g.,
airlines, hotels, car rentals, gas station), companies try
to improve their capacity utilization - More extreme example: personalized pricing, based
on individual browsing behavior,use the willingness
to pay of the consumer
