Abstract

Zusammenfassung In der Marketing-Literatur hat kürzlich eine empirische Auseinandersetzung mit den Erfolgsauswirkungen von Marketing-Fähigkeiten stattgefunden. Obgleich diese Studien durchweg positive Erfolgsbeziehungen aufzeigen, fällt auf, dass sie alle bislang keine externen Moderatoren einbeziehen. Der vorliegende Beitrag adressiert diesen Mangel und überprüft die Erfolgswirkungen von Marketing-Fähigkeiten auf der Grundlage einer Stichprobe mit 891 Unternehmen aus vier verschiedenen Nationen (China, Deutschland, Hongkong und USA). Als zentrales Ergebnis - entgegen der in der Praxis häufig vertretenen Ansicht - stellt sich heraus, dass operative Marketing-Mix-Fähigkeiten in Nationen mit hohem sozioökonomischem Entwicklungsstand eine stärkere Erfolgswirkung aufweisen. Dieses Resultat ergibt sich sowohl auf der Basis der generierten Stichprobe mit subjektiven Erfolgsgrößen als auch weitestgehend für eine kleinere Stichprobe mit objektiven Erfolgsgrößen. Von der nationalen Kultur geht hingegen keine moderierende Wirkung auf die Erfolgsbeziehungen der untersuchten Marketing-Fähigkeiten aus.
