Despite the managerial relevance and theoretical importance of the marketing mix in marketing theory, little is known about the integrated marketing program decisions managers make and realize in business environments. This study synthesizes prior research with field-based insights (i.e., discovery-oriented approach) to capture the scope of marketing program decisions and examines how these decisions align with external environment contingencies for high financial performance. The study proposes a configurational approach to theorizing and testing \u201cfit.\u201d To test this assumption, the authors apply a set-theoretic analytical approach\u2014namely, fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis. An empirical study conducted among 196 U.K. enterprises reveals high-performing combinations of marketing program decisions with external environment contingencies. The findings classify marketing program decisions by their level of importance to financial performance and show that some tactical decisions are essential while others are expendable for success under external environment contingencies and conditional levels. A follow-up study one year later (i.e., t+1) provides further unique insights into which marketing program decisions remain crucial for high financial performance over time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: Marketing Program Decisions and Financial Performance: The Role of the External Environment Date:\u00a020 October 2022 Time: 11:45-13:00 Location: NUBS 2.13 &amp; Zoom Zoom link:&#8230; <br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/2022\/09\/09\/marketing-research-community-seminar-dr-simos-chari\/\" rel=\"bookmark\"><strong>Read more<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4425,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[74],"class_list":["post-14310","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-research","tag-research-events"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14310","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4425"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14310"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14310\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14419,"href":"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14310\/revisions\/14419"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14310"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14310"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microsites.ncl.ac.uk\/nubsstaffblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14310"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
