Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to examine the effect of social disruption on the use of technologies for digitizing business-to-business (B2B) processes. The aim is to assess how digitalization technologies (DT) may impact corporate performance (CP) in B2B settings.
Design/methodology/approach
The methodology is based on a questionnaire survey in Norway, and a deductive research design. A total of 216 usable questionnaires out of 356 were returned, generating a response rate of 60.6%.
Findings
This study shows that there is an effect of social disruption on DT (such as digital communication tools, social media and customer relationship management systems) in B2B settings that may impact CP.
Research limitations/implications
This study indicates that the use of technologies to digitize B2B processes may enhance CP when social disruption occurs.
Practical implications
This study offers insights to companies that need help in adapting their business processes to the changing social and technological environment. This study also highlights the importance of digitalization for business survival in the marketplace and society.
Originality/value
This study sheds light on the effect of social disruption on DT and provides opportunities for managing CP.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Business & Industrial Marketing (JBIM) publishes research on new ideas concerning business-to-business marketing, that is, how one company or organization markets its goods/services/ideas to another company or organization. It is a valuable source for academics, directors and executives of marketing, providing them with new, fresh insights which are applicable within real life settings. JBIM''s emphasis on insistence of proof is one of the cornerstones of its success and its reputation. Contributors to the journal must not only present new theories or ideas, but also back them up with research. In the process, many myths are exploded, philosophies reinvented and the scene set for topical debate on critical issues in B2B marketing. The B2B landscape evolves and so does the research that explores the emerging features and properties of B2B markets. From 2019 the journal hosts the IMP Forum that invites research advancing the boundaries of B2B marketing. Prior research has evidenced that interactivity and interdependences characterize interorganizational business relationships. The Forum aims to bring out research that explores interactivity and interdependences in business relationships and their implications for marketing management, business development and for society at large. Coverage: -Competition and cooperation- Networks in business markets- Buyer behaviour – purchasing and supply management- Managing product offerings- New product development and innovation- Networks in business markets- Distribution and routes to market- Market and customer communication - Customer relationship management- Sales and key account management- Organizing for global markets -
