Topicality
As the field of marketing polarizes to bring specialist understanding to different areas of commercial activity, this timely journal offers lively, often controversial analysis and comment on key issues affecting the sector. The journal's launch in 1986 actually precipitated a greater understanding of the ways in which business and industrial marketing works, and today it is internationally regarded as a leading publication in its field.
Key benefits
The journal's emphasis on insistence of proof is one of the cornerstones of its success and its reputation. Contributors to the journal must not only present new theories or research, but also back them up with research. In the process, many myths are exploded, philosophies reinvented and the scene set for topical debate on critical issues such as marketing through recession, marketing in a global or European arena, strategies for increasing marketshare, finding new markets and developing new products.
Key journal audiences
- Academics and students working or researching in the field
- Consultants working with business-to-business or industrial companies
- Practitioners in industrial marketing, high technology marketing or sales-force management

Instructions to Authors
Submit to the journal
Submissions to the Journal of Business & Industrial Marketing are made using Emerald's online submission and peer review system, the Journal Article Delivery Engine (JADE). See below for details on how to register with and submit articles via JADE.
The manuscript should be in 1.5 line spacing and 12 point font size. Good electronic copies of all figures and tables should also be provided. All manuscripts should be run through a UK English spell check prior to submission. Further manuscript requirements are given below.
Editorial objective
The objective of the journal is to provide both academics teaching marketing and practitioners of marketing with new ideas concerning business-to-business marketing. That is, how one company or organization markets its goods/services/ideas to another company or organization. The ideal article would be one that could be used in the classroom to educate graduate students on the theory and practice of business-to-business marketing and read by managers interested in the state-of-the-art thinking in this area. Each article, therefore, must put forth recommendations as to how the material contained in the article can be utilized in business practice and at the same time provide teachers of marketing with examples of how the theories taught in the classroom work in the real world.
The basis of an article may be research, but it is not intended that the Methodology or Methods section be extensive. If the methodology is so unique as to warrant detailed attention, it will be added as an appendix. But research is not the only basis for an article. Cases, conceptual arguments, and industry reviews and practices may be put forth with equal acceptability. In addition, we will publish opinions of industry professionals, when available, in a section entitled Commentary. Book reviews will also be published when available.
Reviewing process
Each paper is reviewed by the editor and, if it is judged suitable for this publication, it is then sent to two referees for double blind peer review. Based on their recommendations, the editor then decides whether the paper should be accepted as is, revised or rejected.
Copyright
Articles submitted to the journal should be original contributions and should not be under consideration for any other publication at the same time. Authors submitting articles for publication warrant that the work is not an infringement of any existing copyright and will indemnify the publisher against any breach of such warranty. For details of Emerald's editorial policy on plagiarism please view our Plagiarism policy. For ease of dissemination and to ensure proper policing of use, papers and contributions become the legal copyright of the publisher unless otherwise agreed.
Please note that the Editor may make use of iParadigms plagiarism detection software Thenticate or Turnitin as part of the review process (see our press release for further details).
Emerald Literati Network Editing Service
The Emerald Literati Network can recommend, via our Editing Service, a number of freelance copy editors, all themselves experienced authors, to contributors who wish to improve the standard of English in their paper before submission. This is particularly useful for those whose first language is not English.

- Research paper

- Headings must be short, with a clear indication of the distinction between the hierarchy of headings. The preferred format is for headings to be presented in bold format, with consecutive numbering.
- Notes or Endnotes should be used only if absolutely necessary and must be identified in the text by consecutive numbers, enclosed in square brackets and listed at the end of the article.
- Figures and Plates should be supplied within the article itself. All Figures (charts, diagrams and line drawings) and Plates (photographic images) should be of clear quality, in black and white and numbered consecutively with arabic numerals.
Figures created in MS Word, MS PowerPoint, MS Excel, Illustrator and Freehand should be saved in their native formats. Electronic figures created in other applications should be copied from the origination software and pasted into a blank MS Word document or saved and imported into a MS Word document by choosing "Insert" from the menu bar, "Picture" from the drop-down menu and selecting "From File..." to select the graphic to be imported. For figures which cannot be supplied in MS Word, acceptable standard image formats are: .pdf, .ai, .wmf and .eps. If you are unable to supply graphics in these formats then please ensure they are .tif, .jpeg (.jpg) , or .bmp at a resolution of at least 300dpi and at least 10cm wide. To prepare screenshots, simultaneously press the "Alt" and "Print screen" keys on the keyboard, open a blank Microsoft Word document and simultaneously press "Ctrl" and "V" to paste the image. (Capture all the contents/windows on the computer screen to paste into MS Word, by simultaneously pressing "Ctrl" and "Print screen".) Photographic images (Plates) should be saved as .tif or .jpeg (.jpg) files at a resolution of at least 300dpi and at least 10cm wide. Digital camera settings should be set at the highest possible resolution/quality. In the text of the paper the preferred position of all tables, figures and plates should be indicated by typing on a separate line the words "Take in Figure (No.)" or "Take in Plate (No.)".
- Tables should be typed and included as part of the manuscript. They should not be submitted as graphic elements. Supply succinct and clear captions for all tables, figures and plates. Ensure that any superscripts or asterisks are shown next to the relevant items and have corresponding explanations displayed as footnotes to the table, figure or plate.
- References to other publications must be in Harvard style and carefully checked for completeness, accuracy and consistency. This is very important in an electronic environment because it enables your readers to exploit the Reference Linking facility on the database and link back to the works you have cited through CrossRef.
