Integrated Marketing Communications (IMC) has been associated with improved sales. Marketers have long relied upon IMC strategies to boost brand awareness, product appeal, and brand discrimination. The COVID-19 pandemic incited e-shopping behavior resulting from limited mobility. To arrest the spread, governments increased travel restrictions. Citizens also reduced movement to curb infections. Until then, shopping was a mobility-driven venture, and consumers readily took to online shopping, which hit $5 trillion in global value. The upward trajectory was maintained even after the restrictions were lifted, raising the question of whether IMC programs influenced post-pandemic e-shopping. This research sought to test IMC stimulation of post-COVID e-shopping. Specifically, the researcher tested IMC’s role in maintaining consumer interest and persuading impulse purchase -factors that eventually fostered post-pandemic online shopping. Using qualitative descriptive research, the researcher executed surveys and a case study that revealed IMC as a leading driver of post-pandemic online shopping. It is essential to research the importance of IMC as it is associated with the rise of internet shopping after the epidemic.

With the development of society and industry, global warming has become an important environmental issue, and carbon trading is a powerful tool to limit greenhouse gas emissions, and more and more countries have started to adopt carbon trading systems to decrease carbon emissions and to improve the environment. This paper lists the major carbon trading markets in the world and compares them with China's carbon trading, examining the development status, implementation and achievements of carbon trading in each country. This study investigates the carbon trading mechanisms in the EU, Japan and New Zealand, conducts a detailed study on carbon pricing, voluntary emission reduction, and policy promotion, points out the strengths and weaknesses of carbon trading in China, and makes suggestions for development and improvement. This will be useful for other carbon trading markets as well, and the expansion of the ranges of carbon trading mechanisms employed will further control carbon emissions. There is a need to establish a multi-level emissions trading system using various market-based instruments from central to provincial levels and to maintain the carbon market using more flexible carbon pricing. This paper hopes to establish a solid market system to achieve the goal of combating global warming by improving all aspects of carbon trading.

Supply chain management is one of the main challenges in the development of the retail industry. As an important form of retail trade, supermarkets have attracted the attention of the whole retail industry. At present, large, medium, and small supermarkets are facing complete market competition, and each supermarket enterprise has more or less problems in its own supply chain relationship. The problem of how to solve the problems of various types of supermarket enterprises, improve their management programs, and win the market has become particularly important. Based on the existing literature and statistical data, this paper analyzes the problems existing in the supermarket retail industry in China, focusing on the deficiencies of the current supply chain and how to manage and optimize the supply chain. The result shows that the supply chain in domestic supermarkets still has a long way to improve. There are mainly five types of problems, which are supplier problems; delivery problems; location problems; display problems; and pricing problems. These kinds of problems might cause the loss of customer loyalty. The solution consists of three parts: diversifying the product supplier to ensure that the popular product never runs out; replacing the product’s shelf so that the customer can grab the popular product at first sight; and replacing the product’s shelf so that the customer can grab the popular product at first sight.

The COVID-19 has had a significant impact on hospitality marketing, and hospitality marketing strategies urgently need to change to meet the current challenges. The epidemic, on the other hand, has caused people to pay more and more attention to social media, which has increased the prominence of social media influencers (SMI) in this industry. In addition, it is becoming increasingly common for many companies to use influencer marketing as a new development strategy. Therefore, in this context, this article reviews the literature on SMI in hospitality and identifies significant thematic research directions. The study finds two primary thematic directions currently being researched by scholars: External Influence Mechanisms of SMI and Intrinsic Properties of SMI. However, there is less research on the thematic directions of "Psychological-related influential factors and consumer outcomes" and "Strategic assessment of SMIs as a marketing tool". Therefore, the author proposes new research ideas for scholars' reference. At the same time, this study puts forward new ideas for developing hospitality marketing in the post-epidemic era.

Responses to COVID-19 have speeded the adoption of digital technologies by several years, resulting in flourishing Note-taking software markets. This paper studies the competition between the two most popular note-taking apps with horizontal differentiations for tablet users: Notability and GoodNotes 5. A modified Hotelling model is used where firms' persuasive advertisements will affect consumers' preferences, hence implicitly changing their location and their overall travel costs. A two-stage process is considered during firm competition when building up models. In the first stage, firms decide on the levels of advertisement of their products in the first stage, then set different prices to maximize profits. By solving this modified model and analyzing the equilibrium profits, the result shows that advertising leads to the same price tactics for the two firms. However, due to the existence of advertising strategies, firms have to bear the cost of this extra advertising competition. Therefore, both firms in the end will receive lower levels of profits compared to the standard model. Indicating that persuasive advertisement has caused Pareto inefficiency, leading to deadweight loss and reduced profit gains for the two firms.
