Industrial market, created by companies, which buy and sell goods which are not directly for consumption, but are used in production process, communicates with the environment in a specific way. Many industrial companies supply only the customers of non consumption goods market and hence they do not enter into direct contact with a final consumer. In such cases recognizing the customers' needs is even more difficult. Such environment requires efficiently functioning and planned communication of the company with the market. This study presents methods and strategies of marketing communication really used in industrial companies. While analyzing marketing strategies of industrial companies, the author draws the attention to the fact that even though there was system transformation, the state still has significant impact on functioning and development of industry and that in a way directs and created barriers in companies functioning. Such conditions force even more active marketing communication as well as searching new solutions. As there are more and more sophisticated marketing techniques related to digital media, there is also a growing demand for strategic solutions in marketing communication. Digital media, first of all the Internet, provide so far unavailable possibilities of researching consumers' behaviors and ways of using media.

Within the context of reverse logistics (RL), only a few studies have focused on the management characteristics that lead to effectively implementing RL. From the myriad of potential factors of effective RL, the paper focuses on the role of knowledge management, 1st-tier integration and the extent of RL planning, as these factors and their mutual relations have been neglected by empirical research to date. The paper develops a theoretical model to fill this gap and tests it using structural equation modelling on primary data. The findings based on 146 cases support that knowledge management, the extent of RL planning and the level of integration with the 1st-tier supply chain members are the factors related to the effectiveness of RL. The study underpins the importance of long-term RL planning and deeper integration and collaboration with customers and suppliers for effective RL and so to reduce the negative impact of product returns.

The paper explores the various typologies of confidence indices and barometers that have been developed by audit and consultancy firms, research centres or banking associations with the purpose to assist banks in better understanding customers’ needs, perceptions and expectations. The study gravitates around the European banking sector, by relying on the customer experience index developments during 2011 – 2015. We follow a twofold statistical approach, meant to investigate whether the index dynamics may be significantly determined by changes in several broad coverage variables, and respectively the presence of a two-way causality between the index and variables included in the sample. The findings obtained are of interest not only for banks, but also for public authorities and financial regulators, as the customers’ confidence index used in the study appears to drive subsequent changes in the level of several macroeconomic, financial and institutional variables.
