Written on in English with a size of 4.23 KB

**The Definition of Business-to-Business Marketing**

Business-to-business marketing (or B2B marketing, as it is commonly known) involves the sale of one company’s product or service to another company.

**How Business-to-Business Marketing Differs from Business-to-Consumer Marketing**

The key distinguishing feature of a business-to-business market is that the customer is an organization rather than an individual consumer.

The nature of the product is not a determinant to distinguish between consumer market and business market.

Business-to-business markets are characterized by a higher concentration than business-to-consumer markets.

B2B markets are less price-elastic than B2C and might even end up more commonly having a reverse elasticity.

Utilitarianism and Climate Change: A Critical Analysis

Classified in Philosophy and ethics

Written on in English with a size of 2.28 KB

First, a common objection to utilitarianism is that it prioritizes maximizing happiness without considering minority perspectives or moral implications, leading to unfair outcomes. For example, many believe there is no moral obligation to refrain from driving gas-powered cars for leisure. This perceived lack of moral obligation stems from the belief that maximizing happiness for the majority, even if it's for leisure and has detrimental future consequences, is justifiable.

Second, there's a disconnect between the benefits enjoyed by present generations and the costs imposed on future ones. People today often prioritize immediate happiness without considering the long-term environmental costs. A potential solution is to implement measures that...

While some students prefer a combination of online and traditional courses, both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Cost Comparison
