Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/b3b8x4/global_express) has announced the addition of the "Global Express & Small Parcels 2015" report to their offering. Rapid changes due to the expansion of ecommerce and the technology behind it have upset the traditional ways in which parcels are handled. Disruptive market entrants (start-ups) and peer-to-peer collections are also affecting the industry. Alternative delivery solutions such as retail locations (click & collect), transport modes (train stations and other commuter centres), parcel shops (UPS access points) and lockers are already impacting how the industry operates. e-commerce has transformed the express market into a go-go' sector with explosive expansion on a global scale. Businesses are working to harness this growth through a variety of means. - What opportunities are available to start-ups and how disruptive could these be to the market? - How will the potential acquisition of TNT by FedEx impact the express and small parcels market share of the integrators? - Why have different regions reacted differently to e-retail, and which factors could hinder, or boost, their growth? Last Mile: To address increasing changes in demand as a result of changing consumer preferences and retailing, what are established parcel delivery companies doing and which start-ups are impacting the express and small parcels market? Crowd-sourced delivery: Offers rapid and time certain consumer-to-consumer parcel delivery services, often mixed with additional shopping or similar services. - International travellers willing to collect or shop for goods in one territory to deliver to another - Self-employed transport providers with space capacity - Casual workers willing to make deliveries in own vehicle - Casual workers willing to shop on other people's behalf Click & Collect: Popularity of click & collect defined the 2014 holiday season.

UK Direct Marketing Market Update 2015
M2 - Mon Oct 05, 9:25AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/gwjxb8/uk_direct) has announced the addition of the "UK Direct Marketing Market Update 2015" report to their offering. Direct marketing is a channel-neutral form of advertising which allows businesses and non-profit organisations to communicate directly with customers through advertising means that can include smartphones, text messages, email, interactive consumer websites, online display advertisements, social media, fliers, catalogue distribution, promotional letters, targeted television commercials, response-generating newspaper/magazine advertisements, and outdoor advertising. The brand or company client commissions or partners a direct marketing agency to create effective campaigns and direct marketing methodologies to reach its contacts through various means. Depending on whether the client operates in a business-to-business (B2B) or business-to-consumer (B2C) marketplace, the contact audience can be a business or individual consumer. The direct methods for reaching the audience include traditional direct channels, such as personally addressed direct mail, as well as less traditional, relatively new channels such as social media. The aim of direct marketing is to elicit some sort of response from the recipient; whether this is a purchase, donation, information request, website visit or special offer redemption, the response usually has the ultimate aim of leading to a sale. Where direct marketing differs from other forms of marketing campaigns is that the channel used and the response outcome can be measured and quantified, so that the cost-effectiveness and success of the methodology can be measured accurately. This, in turn, provides highly useful market research data for both the client and the agency and helps to provide feedback on the methods to be used for future campaigns. The vast range of marketing channels categorised under the umbrella term of direct marketing means that some face discrepancies as to their definition in the industry. Overlaps between different methods involved in marketing and advertising can also make the industry difficult to define accurately, in that, for example, uploading a video onto a blog or social media site to target a certain audience base can be classified as both direct marketing social media and content marketing. As a non-static market, the sectors are ever-changing and expanding to encompass broader ranges of media channels. Many campaigns are also integrated and employ several different media channels within one brand campaign, as a means to gain higher visibility and reach a wider base. Key Topics Covered: 1. Introduction & Definition 2. Report Coverage 3. What's Key In The Market? 4. Economic Trends 5. Forecasts 6. Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities & Threats 7. PESTEL 8. Company Financials 9.
