Assessment of marketing resources in the process

of formation of marketing potential of trade enterprise

 

The modern enterprises of the trade sphere are in a difficult economic situation, and their development is caused by increase in dynamism of the marketing environment. We consider that in such conditions only strategically oriented trade enterprise which continuously increases the marketing potential can actively develop and raises competitiveness due to its effective use. However, development of marketing capacity of trade enterprise directly depends on the level of using its marketing resources. In this regard, there is a problem of assessment of marketing resources in the process of forming of marketing capacity of trade enterprise for the purpose of ensuring long-term competitive advantage in the market of retail trade. Therefore, the mechanism of estimation of using marketing resources of the economic object of trade area is of particular importance and staticizes the direction of a research.

Researches of marketing capacity of the entity need to be begun with diagnostics of its marketing resources. Ownership of high-quality resources increases chances of the enterprise of achievement of success in conditions of market changes (Balabanova, 2006). Are a part of marketing resources: material, non-material, labor (marketing personnel), financial, information, spatial, hour and innovative resources (Ryabenko, 2010; Grosul and Artemenko, 2013).

The conducted researches (Balabanits, 2009; Bozhko, 2013; Grigorjeva, 2014; Mazhinsky, 2003; Rozhko and Burlytska, 2013; Tyagunov, 2014) have allowed us to allocate the main approaches concerning assessment of the making marketing resources, namely:

-       it is reasonable to analyze material marketing resources in the following sequence: studying of retail chain stores; analysis of warehouse economy, trading equipment; determination of technical support of marketing personnel; diagnostics of commodity, price, sales, communication potential; efficiency evaluation of use of material resources;

-       is result of assessment of non-material marketing resources: bases of marketing information; trademarks and signs; brands; new goods; development strategies of the entity and program of their embodiment; the created base of the available consumers and business partners; order portfolio; a line item in the market; marketing know-how; business reputation which is created thanks to commodity, price, sales and communication marketing efforts;

- the analysis of financial marketing resources of trade enterprise needs to be performed on the following the directions: research of the amounts of financing of a marketing activity of the entity; research of a general financial position of the entity; efficiency evaluation of use of financial marketing resources;

-       assessment of marketing personnel (manpower) needs to be carried out taking into account the concept of personnel policy of the entity, namely: to analyse planning process of personnel policy, the procedure of search and employment of new workers, to perform assessment of level of competence of personnel and efficiency of its use;

- in the course of the research of information marketing resource of the enterprise it is necessary to analyse: equipment level computer equipment, use of system approach to information support, use of opportunities of the Internet, technique of collection and handling of marketing information, presence of qualified specialists in information support;

- spatial marketing resources − it is assessment of trade rooms and the territory of the entity, availability and a condition of communications, a possibility of their expansion, location and a business location, distance from suppliers and consumers, nearness to transport ways;

- hour resources are fund of time which is used by system or a subsystem of the entity for implementation of the purpose for the sake of which it exists. These resources are closely connected with use of technical, technological and personnel resources;

-       during assessment of components of an innovative resource of marketing it is necessary to allocate: potential of developing of new goods/trademarks; potential of development of new sources of supply; potential of developing of new services / services, etc.

We consider that it is very difficult to give a quantitative assessment to marketing resources, each entity has the specifics therefore we agree with scientists that estimation of compound marketing resources and determination of potential of marketing resources need to be carried out by means of an expert evaluation. As experts it is offered to use a heads of related departments of the enterprise, and also experts from active intermediaries and suppliers of the enterprise. The wide range of experts will give the chance to provide more exact results of estimation of potential of marketing resources (Ryabenko, 2010).

We suggest to carry out process of estimation of the making marketing resources in four steps:

1. Allocation of individual indicators for estimation of each component;

2. Determination of level of potential of each allocated indicator method of expert evaluations (Рі);

3. To appropriate to each allocated indicator weight coefficient (lі);

4. Calculation of level of potential of the allocated indicator (Рі  lі)

As a result we suggest to calculate the potential of marketing resources of the enterprise thus:

                                                 (1)

where:

Pmr – the potential of marketing resources;

Pі – potential of the component element і;

lі – weight coefficient of the component element і;

n – quantity of the component elements.

The conducted researches of economic literature (Balabanova, 2006; Barancheev and Strizhev, 1994; Bozhko, 2013; Mazhinsky, 2003; Tyagunova, 2014; Fedonin et al., 2003) allow to claim that for an efficiency evaluation of marketing resources of the enterprises mostly complex methods which are mainly based on use of quality standards are used. However, in our opinion, the available systems of indicators which are mainly applied in quantitative methods of estimation, as a rule, characterize effectiveness of a marketing activity at the enterprise and don't consider a ratio of effect and expenses on its implementation.

After assessment of marketing resources in the process of forming of marketing capacity of trade enterprise, observance of the chosen strategy by synchronization of a marketing activity with common goals of the entity will allow the entity to provide recommendations.
