: The Impact of Customer Loyalty on Small Businesses and its Ability to Increase Brand
Awareness/ Development
Article 1
Adeleke, A. (2020) A Case Study of the Marketing Tools Coffee Shop Owners Use to Sustain
Businesses. Open Journal of Business and Management, 8, 726-753. doi:
10.4236/ojbm.2020.82044.
Summary
This source is a case study that examines the variety of marketing strategies that coffee shop
owners use to maintain their business as it develops over the first few years of its life. This case
study provides insight specifically on coffee shops which is relevant to the research being done
for Sola Cafe. The data provided conclusive data that indicated owners of successful coffee
shops were actively engaged in day-to-day operations and in the community; used social media
for marketing; used competitive pricing; precise about the location; provided exceptional
customer service. The data collected is very telling because as I consider Sola Cafe, I can
recognize that they have the qualities listed and that is what sets them apart from chain coffee
shops. I think this source will provide data that can be closely compared to data collected on Sola
Cafe. I plan to use this source to determine areas that small coffee shops, such as Sola Cafe, can
improve on or even implement.

Summary
This article outlines some of the marketing terms that are important to consider in the business
industry such as “sustainable competitive advantage” and “brand management.” This resource is
a paper that reviews a bibliometric analysis and a mapping study and analyzes it in the context of
customer loyalty and brand management from 2000 to 2018. This information provided through
the conclusive data and analysis will help to determine how marketers can gain a competitive
advantage and have positive financial outcomes. I also think this information is beneficial if a
study has to be done because the approach to collecting data is shared and can be replicated to
look at areas of improvement for other businesses. I hope this article will bring valuable insight
to how customer loyalty can be improved in other areas other than a loyalty/program.
