The use of advanced computer technologies has dramatically changed marketing. Concepts such as smart, sustainable, and green marketing have emerged in the last 20 years. One of these new technologies is the Internet of Things (IoT), which has led to the development of the activities and performances of industries in various dimensions. For the various objects, such as people, processes, and data, involved in marketing activities, the Internet of Everything (IoE) as an evolved IoT is a possible future scenario. Some sectors pretend to be the first to implement this, and the more they rely on dynamic, unstable customer needs, the better a solution the IoE is for them. Therefore, this paper presents a clear vision of smart, sustainable marketing based on the IoE in one of the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industries, the dairy industry. Key factors are identified to help readers understand this concept better. The expert interview makes it possible to draw a picture of the factors that have helped successfully implement the IoE in the dairy sector.

Due to the negative impact of globalized production and consumption on the natural environment, businesses keep facing increased pressure to eliminate their harmful processes and transform into environmentally conscious organizations. Marketing as a business function having a high interaction rate with customers and other stakeholders receives its share from this wave. Every day, more organizations become engaged in green marketing practices either by complying with laws and regulations or seizing proactive environmental marketing strategies. This chapter aims to propose a conceptual framework for green marketing by reviewing the existing green marketing and sustainable marketing literature. In addition to that, considering the less developed literature in Business-to-Business (B2B) green marketing, the chapter uses previous strategic frameworks for suggesting green marketing activities for industrial services. Logistics is selected as a specific field for the proposition of the examples. The chapter concludes with implications and further research directions.

The sharing economy is revolutionizing the way consumers use goods and services. The aim of this study is to understand consumer motivations to be satisfied and to continue using ridesharing services. With this aim, we modify and extend the expectation–confirmation model by including social value as an additional factor to those previously studied in the literature. Data were collected from 258 users of BlaBlaCar, one of the world leaders in ridesharing services. Social value positively affects satisfaction and has the second strongest total effect on continuance intention among the motivations in our model. Our results highlight that satisfaction of ridesharing users is driven by service quality, perceived usefulness, environmental impact, trust, and social value; and that all those factors joined for economic benefits affect continuance intention directly or indirectly through satisfaction. These results have important theoretical and managerial implications.
