Abstract
Discusses the logic of the re‐emerging relationship approach to marketing and presents key strategic as well as tactical implications for a firm attempting to apply a relationship marketing strategy. Notes that major changes in the business philosophy may be required if relationship marketing is truly to be adopted. Otherwise the firm may just be paying lip‐service to the new philosophy. Using direct marketing techniques and developing partnerships alone are not sufficient. Relationship marketing requires much more than that.Keywords
