Rapid emergence and widespread adoption of information and communication
technologies (ICTs) and digital media is having a significant impact on the
way people communicate and fulfil their socio-economic, emotional and
material needs. ICTs and digital media, such as emails, search engines,
websites and social media sites, are already being used widely by
individuals for a range of activities including searching daily news and
updates on critical events; connecting with family and friends; reviewing
products, services and places; selling and buying goods; accessing
transportation, tourism, and personal financial services; and workplace
management (Kapoor et al. 2017). Furthermore, radical increase in both
temporal and geographical reach is empowering consumers to exert influence
on brands, products, and services (Plume et al., 2016). These technologies
are also being harnessed by businesses for various purposes including
distribution and selling of goods, retailing of consumer services, customer
relationship management, and influencing consumer behaviour by employing
digital marketing practices (Dwivedi et al. 2015, 2017; Kapoor et al. 2016,
2017).

Technological advancement has resulted in evolution of consumer behaviour
through “digital metamorphosis” leading to the formation of “Digital
Consumer Culture”, which is a novel and largely unexplored area presenting
fertile ground for academics, researchers, and practitioners interested in
understanding this unfolding phenomenon. This research workshop, edited
volume by Springer Nature (entitled *Digital and Social Media Marketing -
Emerging Applications and Theoretical Development*), and special issue of
the *Journal of Retailing and Consumer Services* aims to bring together a
variety of disciplines and a scholarly community for the advancement of
knowledge regarding practice and research related to digital and social
media marketing. To achieve this goal, systematic literature reviews
leading to theory development and empirical papers employing quantitative,
qualitative, and/or critical methods are welcomed. Consideration will be
given to submissions focusing on digital marketing specific theory
building/development, measurement development and validation, and testing
of existing marketing and information systems theories and models for
evaluating their suitability for extending knowledge in this emerging
academic domain.
