Types of Intermediaries
(1) Wholesalers ( 批發商 ) Buy products from the manufacturer + resell
them to retailers. 交易金額與交易數量遠大於零售商,不像零售商需要注重店面佈置、氣氛及店址
(2) Retailers ( 零售商 ) Buy products from wholesalers + sell them to
consumers.
網路行銷 楊子青 H-13
Types of Intermediaries(3) Brokers ( 經紀商 )

E.g.: 房屋仲介(4) Agents ( 代理商 )
Represent the buyer or seller + facilitate transactions between buyers and sellers but do not take title to the goods ( 無產品所有權 ).
Manufacturer’s agents: represent the seller. Purchasing agents: represent the buyer.

2.2 Distribution Channel Length Number of intermediaries between supplier and
buyer. Direct distribution channel ( 直接通路 )
No intermediaries, The manufacturer deals directly with the consumer, E.g. Dell Computer sells directly to customers.
Indirect channel ( 間接通路 ) Incorporate one or more intermediaries, Suppliers, a manufacturer, wholesalers, retailers, end consumers, Intermediaries help to perform important functions.
網路行銷 楊子青 H-15
Distribution Channel Length Internet as a Distribution Channel
For digital products (e.g. software) Entire distribution channel may be Internet based:
the supplier can delivers it over the Internet to the buyer’s computer.
Non-digital products (e.g. flowers/ wine) May be purchased online but must be delivered via
truck. The exact location of that shipment can be tracked
using a Web-based interface (e.g. FedEx). Disintermediation vs. New intermediaries.
網路行銷 楊子青 H-16
(1) Disintermediation Eliminating traditional intermediaries.
Taken to its extreme, internet allows the supplier to transfer goods and services directly to the consumer.
Initially, Internet was predicted to eliminate intermediaries.
Because it can potentially reduce costs. The reasoning failed to recognize important facts:
Using intermediaries allows companies to focus on what they do best.
Traditional intermediaries have been replaced with Internet equivalents.
網路行銷 楊子青 H-17
(2) New Intermediaries
The Internet has added new intermediaries. E.g. Yahoo! Broadcast aggregates multimedia
content = Yahoo! and Yahoo! Broadcast audio bookstore, radio broadcaster, and TV broadcaster.
E.g. Shopping mall, search engine, 104 人力銀行… Other intermediary: shopping agents, buyer
cooperatives...

through conventional channels.

Functions of a Distribution Channel
(2) Logistical Functions (Cont.) Product aggregation ( 產品聚集 )
Suppliers operate more efficiently when they produce a high volume of a narrow range of products, But consumers prefer to purchase small quantities of a wide range of products.
Channel intermediaries perform the essential function of aggregating product from multiple suppliers so that the consumer can have more choices in one location.

(3) Facilitating Functions ( 促進功能 ) Marketing Research. Financing ( 財物融資 ).

E.g. 汽車及房屋貸款。 Online consumer purchases are financed through:
credit cards special financing plans ( 小額付款 , 電子貨幣 , 電子錢
包… )

供應鏈規劃:需求預測、製造排程、配銷規劃。 供應鏈執行:訂單履行、運輸、庫存、配銷等流程的管理。
