- ÍtemAcceso Abierto“Análisis de la Migración al Marketing digital en las Mipymes comerciales de Azogues - Ecuador”(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Buri Saldaña, Alex Miguel; Solís Muñoz, Juan Bautista; 0350091336; .Digital marketing, as a marketing tool, has resulted from digital transformation through ICTs, facilitating the process of information and purchase. Therefore, it is appropriate to study the migration to digital marketing in commercial MSMEs in Azogues. Therefore, a study is conducted in which a sample of millennials between 20 and 40 years of age in the city is analyzed, and a validated survey composed of 18 multiple-choice questions is applied. The results are compiled using digital media in the cloud; for their channeling and analysis, the SPSS statistical program is used to generate contingency tables, graphs, and chi-square tests to validate the hypotheses proposed. As a result, 78% of millennials make purchases online, underscoring the significance for commercial MSMEs in the city to venture into digital media. Likewise, the digital absence and lack of online positioning among the businesses of the city became evident. This research aims to make an academic-strategic contribution to the commercial MSMEs of Azogues in digital marketing campaigns while addressing the research question: Are there bivariate dependencies between digital marketing and exogenous factors applicable to commercial MSMEs in the city of Azogues? Additionally, how can they take advantage of this tool with its implementation?
- ÍtemAcceso Abierto“Determinación de factores asociados a la ventaja competitiva en Mipymes del sector comercial de Azogues - Ecuador ”(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Lema Lazo, Nina Raymi; Ormaza Andrade, Jorge Edwin; 0302809017; ., .This study, "Determination of Factors Associated with Competitive Advantage in MSMEs in the Commercial Sector of Azogues, Ecuador," is based on a positivist quantitative methodology. The research was conducted with an exploratory, descriptive, and correlational design in the population of MSMEs in Azogues-Ecuador, with a sample size of 115. A survey, validated by experts, was employed as the data collection instrument, with a Cronbach's reliability coefficient of 0.786 —indicating high reliability—. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics for variables of interest in four categories: competitive advantage, innovation, market orientation, and knowledge transfer. Each category includes detailed questions to explore different aspects. The findings indicate a significant correlation between competitive advantage and the three independent variables: innovation (0.989**), market orientation (0.984**), and knowledge transfer (0.995**). This suggests that these factors determine the competitive advantage of MSMEs in the commercial sector of Azogues, Ecuador. However, the data follow a non-normal distribution, so Spearman's correlation test was used instead of parametric analysis. Despite this limitation, the study provides valuable information on factors contributing to competitive advantage in this particular sector and context.
