The book series, Applied Marketing Science - Angewandte Marketingforschung aims to bridge the gap between scientific rigor and practical relevance in the transfer of cutting-edge theoretical and applied knowledge between scholars and practitioners. The series explores classic and contemporary theories and themes in global competitive networks, inter-organizational relationships, customer relationship management, and competitive advantages as conceived, developed, and applied in the field of marketing.
Other themes will also be explored at the discretion of the series editors. Given its international focus, the series Applied Marketing Science – AngewandteMarketingforschung will include contributions in both German and English. For authors, Applied Marketing Science – Angewandte Marketingforschung offers the opportunity to publish original work, edited volumes or monographs. In order to ensure the highest possible standards of academic quality and readability, authors must first submit a brief proposal that includes the major themes explored in the book, evidence or rationale of why the themes, methods and conclusions are original and cutting-edge in the discipline, and the intended contribution to the practice of marketing science. The proposal would then be reviewed by the series editors and, if necessary, external reviewers. Based on their evaluations, a proposal is either accepted, conditionally accepted or rejected by the editorial board. If the proposal is accepted, authors would be provided a time frame and style sheet which they must adhere to in delivering the final manuscript.
