Abstract
In order to compete successfully in today's marketplaces, businesses must develop internal channels of marketing communication that effectively unify the company's efforts in communicating with all of its stakeholders. Businesses, especially those in the B2B sector, are increasingly emphasizing distinctiveness and one-to-one marketing, leading some to believe that mass communication or mass media are losing their place in the marketing communication mix. Research, however, reveals that their efficacy is not dwindling, and may even be growing, in some parts of the marketing communication mix. Our primary data clearly confirms the tremendous significance of mass communication or mass media for the marketing efforts of industrial organizations. This article defines, examines, and evaluates the mass media and mass media's potential roles in the many components of industrial enterprises' marketing communication mixes. This report details the findings of a primary qualitative study of chemical product manufacturers in the Czech Republic. Methods for improving the efficacy of marketing communication through mass communication and the mass media were also discovered based on in-depth interviews with corporate marketing managers. Modern technology for communication and modes of communication, which are typically overlooked in B2B practice, received special attention. However, they have a great deal of promise for the years to come. The study's findings provide valuable input into efforts to improve B2B marketing communication mix instruments.
