Marketing Systems—A Core Macromarketing Concept
Abstract
This article highlights the central role that the study of marketing systems could and should play in the discipline of macromarketing. Drawing from a wide-ranging literature, a new definition of marketing systems is shared. The study of a marketing system furthermore can be approached in one or more of at least four ways. Each approach discussed raises issues of modeling and measurement, of attributes, and of inputs and outputs, which increasingly often will provide insights into system design alternatives. Placing the concept of a marketing system at the center of macromarketing puts in context much if not all of the concepts, ideas, and research that have been part of macromarketing for the past thirty or more years and provides a bridge to the wealth of relevant studies now being undertaken in many related fields.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
