The analysis of three case studies shows a gradual shift in consumer goods industries from traditional marketing communication to in-store marketing, including digital stores. The success of the companies that have experienced the integrated communication and distribution strategy seems to rely on leveraging on distribution channels as means of communication and not only of selling. The analysed companies have developed strong brand value and a proactive approach to innovation, changing traditional market rules and applying an innovative integration between communication and distribution. They have been able to create a new distribution and communication model based on the intersection between the following three marketing drivers: ambient (store), people and the web.

Abstract
The analysis of three case studies shows a gradual shift in consumer goods industries from traditional marketing communication to in-store marketing, including digital stores. The success of the companies that have experienced the integrated communication and distribution strategy seems to rely on leveraging on distribution channels as means of communication and not only of selling. The analysed companies have developed strong brand value and a proactive approach to innovation, changing traditional market rules and applying an innovative integration between communication and distribution. They have been able to create a new distribution and communication model based on the intersection between the following three marketing drivers: ambient (store), people and the web.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
