Approaches to marketing activities of small and medium-sized enterprises with closer focus on marketing communication
Original language description
Our research provides a broad overview of marketing activities used by entrepreneurs which fulfil the criteria set by small and medium-sized business (SMB) categorization. This paper provides a basic introduction to these activities, focusing on approaches towards sustainability and its principles applied in marketing communication. The target file contained businesses with more than ten employees with headquarters in the South Bohemia region. The research sample was based on stratified sampling, where strata comprised the number of employees and the form of business. The results show that marketing activities are predominantly profit-oriented, not primarily designed according to sustainable marketing principles. However, there are differences between those two categories as middle-sized enterprises incline to choose sustainable techniques more often. Also, the selection of used communication tools is different. For their limited budget small businesses often pay for sales promotion and online marketing. Middle-sized enterprises behave differently in using more expensive tools and techniques, such as advertising, event marketing, sponsoring and direct marketing
