چکیده:
هدف: نقش رسانههای اجتماعی و پلتفرمهای دیجیتال، در کسبوکارهای بنگاهبهمصرفکننده پُررنگ بوده است؛ اما بهتازگی، شاهدیم که کسبوکارهای بنگاهبهبنگاه نیز به رسانههای اجتماعی و پلتفرمهای دیجیتال توجه میکنند. از این رو، هدف از پژوهش حاضر، شناسایی الگوهای ذهنی تعامل کسبوکارهای بنگاهبهبنگاه در لینکدین با استفاده از روش کیو است.
روش: چارچوب فلسفی این پژوهش، پارادایم تفسیری ـ اثباتگرایی (روش کیو) است که از منظر هدف، کاربردی شمرده میشود. مشارکتکنندگان پژوهش که بهصورت هدفمند و با روش گلوله برفی انتخاب شدند، 9 نفر از فعالان حوزه بنگاهبهبنگاه و آشنا به پلتفرم لینکدین بودند که دیدگاههای آنها با تحلیل عاملی کیو و استفاده از نرمافزار اسپیاساس نسخه 25 تجزیهوتحلیل شد.
یافتهها: نتایج نشان میدهد که الگوی تعامل کسبوکارهای بنگاهبهبنگاه در لینکدین، در سه دسته ذهنیت محتوای حرفهای، سرنخ و ردیابی قرار دارد.
نتیجهگیری: شرکتهای بنگاهبهبنگاه میتوانند برای تسهیل روابط خود با مشتریان، از رسانههای اجتماعی و پلتفرمها بهره ببرند و همانند موجودی زنده، به شرکت و برند خود هویت ببخشند؛ محصولات و خدمات و ارزشی را که به مشتری ارائه میکنند، معرفی کنند؛ از طریق محتواهای مختلف، اطلاعات کلیدی را در اختیار مشتریان قرار دهند؛ برای پیگیری مشتریان سرنخهای جذاب ایجاد کنند؛ جوامع و گروهها و افراد مرتبط با شرکت خود را ردیابی کنند و در نهایت، با مشتریان خود تعاملی سازنده داشته باشند.
Objective In the past, digital marketing and content creation in the B2B were less studied compared to the B2C field. According to the conducted small number of pieces of research, it is clear that the two concepts are completely different and that B2B digital marketing as a whole should be investigated in more depth. All B2B companies have the potential for social media marketing and digital content creation. Yet these B2B companies are not putting their efforts into that. Over the past few years, LinkedIn has been an important professional social media platform for B2B scholars to use in several ways and B2B researchers can be members of LinkedIn groups. B2B businesses need to market to the right audience, they need to make sure that they are placing their money and efforts into the right platforms. To increase their engagement and sales, it is important for these companies not to waste their time and money and to start making the right marketing decisions. It is essential for these B2B businesses to build their credibility online and create trust with their customers. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to identify the mental patterns of business-to-business interaction on LinkedIn by the Q method. Methodology This paper is aimed to explore key philosophical underpinnings of fundamental research paradigms with reference to Positivism and Interpretivism (Q method). The statistical population of this study includes B2B business managers, active on LinkedIn. The discourse of the present research was collected from various sources (theoretical literature and semi-structured interviews with experts). 30 samples of Q phrases were selected after a survey of experts. The theme analysis technique was used to extract the factors in the interview section. In this section, the identified indicators were written on a card called Q, using the coding process. Then these cards were given to the participants. The data obtained from sorting the participants were analyzed by the Q factor analysis in SPSS software to identify the business interaction pattern. To measure validity of Q-method, the researcher needed to ask himself whether the collected statements had the required comprehensiveness to reflect different mentalities. Therefore, the validity of the content could be checked based on participants’ ratings of the phrase and its adjacent phrase. The test-retest method was used to calculate the reliability coefficient of Q sorting. The test-retest was re-run for 20% of the sample. The correlation coefficient was 73%, which indicated a high level of reliability. Findings The researchers determined the Q expressions, after conducting semi-structured interviews and library studies. These expressions were approved by experts. A total of 30 Q expressions were extracted. Accordingly, three mental models were identified from the perspective of the participants. The first mentality was called the professional content mentality. The second one was the lead mentality, and the third was called the tracking mentality. Conclusion The results showed three mental models of B2B business interaction on LinkedIn: "Professional content", "Tracking" and "Lead". The mentality of professional content refers to the production of suitable content for a company on LinkedIn. Lead mentality refers to activities that lead to creating leads to create interactions and communication between companies. The third mentality, called tracking, refers to a set of activities that place the company in a position to have better and more access to the relevant audience. The constant participation of consumers in the social media space requires companies to develop and maintain a strong media presence. This research could accurately identify the influential components in each mentality to provide a clearer view of better interaction on LinkedIn and to help managers adopt practical strategies based on customer needs. According to the obtained results, B2B companies can use social media and platforms to facilitate their relationships with customers, identify their company and brand just like a living entity and introduce the products, services and value they provide to the customer.
خلاصه ماشینی:
نتيجه گيري : شرکت هاي بنگاه به بنگاه مي توانند براي تسهيل روابط خود با مشتريان ، از رسانه هـاي اجتمـاعي و پلتفـرم هـا بهـره ببرنـد و همانند موجودي زنده ، به شرکت و برند خود هويت ببخشند؛ محصولات و خدمات و ارزشي را که به مشتري ارائه مي کنند، معرفي کننـد؛ از طريق محتواهاي مختلف ، اطلاعات کليدي را در اختيار مشتريان قرار دهند؛ براي پيگيري مشتريان سرنخ هاي جذاب ايجاد کنند؛ جوامـع و گروه ها و افراد مرتبط با شرکت خود را رديابي کنند و در نهايت ، با مشتريان خود تعاملي سازنده داشته باشند.
از آنجايي که ماهيـت کسـب وکارهـاي بنگاه به بنگاه به اين صورت است که به طور سنتي ، با فروش محصولات يا خدمات خود به ساير مشاغل تجارت مي کنند و با مراجعه يا تماس با مشتريان بالقوه ، فروش را انجام مي دهند، بسياري از شرکت هاي بنگاه بـه بنگـاه وجـود دارنـد کـه از بازاريابي ديجيتال غفلت مي کنند؛ زيرا معمولا در مشاغل بنگاه به بنگاه استفاده نمي شود (تاسانن ٧، ٢٠٢١).
