In a world of channels, vast and wide,
The marketing topic we cannot hide.
From supply chains long to short ones meet,
Here's a rhyme with a beat that’s sweet.
Marketing channels, the path we take,
To reach our customers, make no mistake.
Through multichannel marketing, so diverse,
We reach our audience and spread the verse.
Beware the bullwhip effect they say,
It amplifies demand and leads us astray.
Channel conflict can arise,
When interests clash, tensions rise.
Customer service is key, you know,
It keeps them coming back and helps business grow.
Direct-to-consumer channels, clear and straight,
Cut out the middle, there is no need to wait.
Disintermediation, the middle we skip,
Directly we go, making the trip.
Exclusive distribution, just for the few,
For products so niche, or brand new.
Intensive distribution, wide and vast,
Everywhere you go, it’s broadcast.
The logistics matter, the flow and the ride,
Ensuring products, side by side.
Selective distribution, just right in between,
Not everywhere, but where they've been seen.
The supply chain connects, start to end,
Ensuring the products, safely send.
Total logistics cost, keep it low,
For profits to rise and business to grow.
Vendor-managed inventory, they oversee, Stock in check, as it should be.
Vertical marketing systems, top to base,
Aligned interests, they embrace.
And if returns come, back they go,
Through reverse logistics, flow by flow.
So here's the tale, of channels and chain,
In the world of marketing, never plain.
Each term a piece, in this grand scheme,
To reach the market and fulfill the dream.
