Early studies of these new electronic : markets (e-markets) took a simplistic view of consumers as economic agents : whose behavior was guided by a search for the lowest cost transactions. : This view was sufficient for identifying some explanations for the growth : of e-markets, but consumer behavior in these markets cannot be completely : understood by economic analysis. As electronic market research has : matured, more research studies are being conducted into marketing and : consumer behavior issues in these new markets. : : Topics for this mini-track include, but are not limited to, the following : issues related to electronic markets and sales channels: : : · Consumer behavior : · Advertising and promotional strategies : · Market research : · Personal sales and sales management : · International marketing : · Strategic marketing management : · Determinants of e-market success and/or failure : : We invite papers that address any of the areas listed above, as well as any : related issues. A range of research methodologies including conceptual, : lab experiments, surveys, and case studies, among others, would be : appropriate. : : Mini Track Co-Chairs : : Troy J.
