Customer orientation has attracted increasing importance and considered as the main competitive advantage of organizations in the process of firm achievement. If an organization can satisfy its customer and attract loyal customer, it would lead to its long term growth. Increasing competition in national, regional and global areas has led to more attention to competitive advantage as a key determinant of organization growth. To be successful in these circumstances, knowledge management and its procedures can be considered as a necessity. Knowledge management focuses on the knowledge usage to establish competitive advantage and form dynamics in a complex environment. Hence, current study aims to investigate the relationship between customer knowledge management and customer loyalty focusing on the mediating role of customer value by a case study conducted on Saderat Bank in Khozestan. Measurement items are adapted from existing scales found in the knowledge management and marketing literature. Academic colleagues reviewed the items for face validity and readability. The scales are evaluated for reliability using data collected in a survey of Saderat Bank’s customers. A structural equation modeling procedure is applied to the examination of the influences of customer knowledge management on customer value and customer loyalty. The research model was tested empirically using a sample of 500 customers who had referred to Saderat Bank’s agencies in Khozestan during the period of research. The paper found that the most influential dimensions of knowledge management on customer value are knowledge for customer, knowledge of customer, knowledge about customer, respectively. Furthermore, the effect of consistency between customer image and perceived value on customer loyalty was strong.Keywords: Customer knowledge management, Customer knowledge, Customer value, Customer loyalty

The socialization process in knowledge management (KM) has been in discussion for more than a decade, and most research has focused on socialization among employees in developing organizational knowledge. But this article tries to explore the socialization aspect in customer knowledge management (CKM) in a customer-centric industry, retail using social media. The case study of a leading Indian retailer is implemented using netnography, a research technique that draws data from computer-mediated communication channels. The communications of the retailer to and from customers through Facebook, Twitter and Foursquare are collected, codified and analysed. The findings explored the customer knowledge gaps (CKG) in the social media interactions, based on which a CKG model was developed. The study gives a new insight for retailers which can be used to evaluate their strategies using customer knowledge from social media apart from customer relationship management (CRM) and personal interactions. The information that customers share via social media is substantial and important for organizations like retailers, and it is high time to appropriately value this customer knowledge as it can be effectively used for enhancing future marketing strategies.

Technologies are transforming marketing organizations; and exploiting the full potential of this transformation is one of the key challenges for startups and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) requiring a holistic management approach towards Knowledge Management (KM) in the digital context. This paper addresses a central question from a resource-based perspective: how startups and SMEs with inadequate capabilities and limited resources drive digital transformation in marketing? Customer Knowledge Management (CKM) which integrates approaches from Knowledge Management and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) can play an important role towards this goal. This paper examines the evolving role of data sciences in relation to marketing for effective Customer Knowledge Management in startups and SMEs. Adopting a case study methodology in EdTech startup based in Egypt, this paper suggests technological tools that help startups and SMEs with limited resources and capabilities take advantage of data sciences in relation to marketing and extract valuable customer knowledge to improve CRM effectiveness. The case study also sheds some light on the relevant organizational factors that could help such organizations align the CRM business processes with IT infrastructure. This research provides some guidance, from an organizational perspective, to startups and SMEs in their digital transformation in marketing.
