Abstract The Web 2.0 era and the following phases of web development bring new challenges to businesses, but also new opportunities to establish and maintain relationships with market participants, indulge in direct contact with customers and learn about their needs, emotions and opinions. The advancement of content creation and sharing technologies creates an opportunity to collect information from anyone with access to the Internet. User-generated content (UGC) information is increasingly supporting decision-making and analysis for various types of business, management or marketing activities. Such information is also increasingly used as a source of data in scientific research. The present study seeks to evaluate the relevance of UGC in scientific research and the scope and ways in which content created by Internet users can be used by researchers of phenomena existing in the service sector. To achieve this goal, a bibliometric literature review (quantitative analysis of publications, identification of research collaborators, co-author analysis, co-citation analysis and co-word analysis) was conducted covering articles between 2012 and 2022 published in journals indexed in the Scopus database. The analysis used descriptive statistics and text and content analysis. A significant increase was observed in publications between 2020 and 2022. Among the various service branches, the researchers most often chose data sets in the form of comments posted online by customers of tourism industries, mainly those using accommodation services, but also restaurants. TripAdvisor was observed to be the most frequently used data source. In their analysis, the authors used both qualitative and quantitative methods, as well as a combination of them. It is observed that more sophisticated machine learning algorithms have been implemented for text analysis. Finally, the paper also presents future research recommendations.
Web 2.0时代和Web发展的后续阶段给企业带来了新的挑战,但也给企业带来了与市场参与者建立和维护关系、与客户直接接触并了解他们的需求、情感和意见的新机遇。内容创作和共享技术的进步创造了从任何可以访问互联网的人那里收集信息的机会。用户生成内容(UGC)信息越来越多地支持各种商业、管理或营销活动的决策和分析。这类信息也越来越多地被用作科学研究中的数据来源。本研究旨在评估UGC在科学研究中的相关性,以及互联网用户创建的内容可以被研究服务部门中存在的现象的研究人员使用的范围和方式。为了实现这一目标,我们对2012年至2022年间发表在Scopus数据库索引期刊上的文章进行了文献计量学文献综述(出版物定量分析、研究合作者识别、合著者分析、共被引分析和共词分析)。分析采用描述性统计和文本及内容分析。在2020年至2022年期间,出版物数量显著增加。在各种服务部门中,研究人员最常选择的数据集是旅游业客户在网上发布的评论,主要是那些使用住宿服务的客户,也包括餐馆。TripAdvisor被认为是最常用的数据源。在他们的分析中,作者使用了定性和定量方法,以及两者的结合。可以观察到,更复杂的机器学习算法已经被用于文本分析。最后,提出了今后的研究建议。

Abstract The purpose of this article is to compare consumers’ preferences towards activities and content, published by beauty influencers, on Instagram and YouTube platforms. The motive behind embarking on this topic is to address the research gaps in the available literature and studies on this subject. Previous research works mainly concentrated on markets other than Polish or addressed topics in other contexts. To achieve the purpose of the paper, a study was conducted using a survey technique supported by an online questionnaire, on a sample of 146 individuals who use social media platforms. The survey results reveal that users in the beauty category are most likely to watch product reviews on both Instagram and YouTube platforms. Moreover, favourite products in the beauty category for Instagram users are facial care products, and for YouTube viewers, are makeup cosmetics.

Abstract Objective To explore the dynamism of the environment and the impact on service company competitive advantage from a customer relationship management (CRM) dynamic capabilities (DCs) perspective. This work also aims to develop a multidimensional conceptualisation of the dynamic environment and propose a theoretical model for analysing the impact of the environment's dynamism on the relationship between dynamic CRM capabilities and competitive advantage. Research Design and Methods Based on the resource-based view (RBV) and dynamic capabilities view (DCV), the method of critical literature analysis was used. Literature sources written in the last two decades were analysed. Findings The result of the literature research became the development of a new conceptualisation of the dynamic environment and its three relevant dimensions, as well as the proposal of constructs in the theoretical model, where the dynamism of the environment plays a moderating role in the relationship between dynamic CRM capabilities and competitive advantage. Implications/Recommendations As implications for further research, empirical verification of the created model and checking the relationship between the constructs should be indicated. Contribution The findings extend the application of RBV and DCV in marketing knowledge. In addition, the model and this study's conclusions direct service firms to develop CRM capabilities that can enhance the company, thereby enabling the building of competitive advantage in a dynamic environment.

Abstract It is acknowledged that achieving product-based competitive advantage is a key task for a company. However, there is still a research gap in determining those specific actions in the process of developing new products that arise from companies’ efforts to achieve product-based competitive advantage. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determine the specific actions in the new product development (NPD) process that result from companies’ intention to introduce a new product to the market, enabling the achievement of a competitive advantage. The primary research method used in this study is deductive reasoning, supplemented by a literature review. The result of the study is the proposal of three types of actions: a) evaluating an opportunity in terms of its potential to generate a competitive advantage; b) creating a new product with high economic value; and c) assessing both the planned new product and the new product introduced to the market in terms of achieving a competitive advantage. The latter two types of actions can be undertaken at various stages of the NPD process and can pertain to the product concept itself and to specific product forms (e.g., prototypes, pilot products). These proposed actions are significant because attaining a product-based competitive advantage contributes to the achievement of other objectives related to new products (e.g., revenue generation). Therefore, it is recommended that companies incorporate these actions into their NPD process. This study contributes to the field of management by proposing few specific actions in each phase of the NPD process, which arise from a company's intention to achieve a product-based competitive advantage, addressing a previous gap in the literature.

Abstract The article presents the framework for the implementation process of HubSpot customer relationship management (CRM) software in a selected innovation project conducted by a student-run non-profit organisation, as the basis for the project's stakeholder relationship management. The purpose of the article is to assess the impact of the implemented software on the project's stakeholder relationship management, with a particular focus on communication with internal and external stakeholders. The motivation for introducing the concept of stakeholder relationship management in the studied organisation included the growing number of students involved in the project, increasing financial needs and, consequently, a growing group of stakeholders supporting the innovative project. This led to the need for the project's stakeholder relationship management concept and greater operationalisation of the student organisation's activities. HubSpot CRM software was chosen for its functionality and accessibility for non-profit organisations. This article presents a case study of the Innovative Student Project and the results of a survey of project members to assess internal communication and information flow between project members and key stakeholders after implementation of the CRM system. It was assumed that the evaluation of communication from the perspective of project members would be an appropriate measure of the benefits of the implemented solution as it is difficult to assess other dimensions of stakeholder cooperation at the initial stage. The main perceived benefits were the professionalization of team activities and uniformity of management practices across the project, clear categorisation of stakeholders, improved information flow within the project, and communication with sponsors. It was also shown that student organisations can introduce solutions dedicated to enterprises and implement the concept of stakeholder relationship management to increase the effectiveness of support acquisition and develop innovative projects.

Summary The evolution in the field of information technologies that has taken place in recent decades has transformed the world. The marketing sector has undergone similar changes. At present, the internet as a groundbreaking achievement resulting from the evolution of information technologies is being integrated with marketing activities. Thanks to this we can witness a new generation of the activities referred to as the age of Marketing 4.0. It is urgently needed as today customers demand something more than just products that meet their basic needs, satisfy their desires, and soothe their anxieties. Clients are now looking for products that will allow them to fulfil their creativity and find the values defined by Marketing 3.0, however, they want to be able to become a part of the product, that is, to contribute and interact with the product, and then, harnessing information technologies - to share their experiences and verify if the product is actually fulfilling the task that it was meant to. This is also why marketing no longer focuses on the product - just like the internet no longer centres around data. At present, both marketing and the internet focus on clients and enhance the interactions between the client and the product; while doing this, they are based on the values of the users and offer them more data. This article presents the key elements of Marketing 4.0., discusses its relationship with the Marketing 3.0 concept and explains the extent to which next generation marketing is an extrapolation of the concept of Marketing 3.0. At the end, some examples of technologies from the Internet of Things, which facilitate interaction between the user and the products and the internet have also been provided.
