Abstract

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the Service Dominant Orientation (S-DO), Responsive Market Orientation (RMO) and Proactive Market Orientation (PMO) complementary effect on Brand Performance in the Brazilian agribusiness B2B context. We conducted a survey with 147 Brazilian agribusiness firms that sell supplies directly to farmers. The data were analysed through a three-model hierarchical regression analysis. The results indicated that S-DO complemented by PMO and RMO impacts and explains brand performance at more significant levels than S-DO by itself. The complementary effect is highlighted when firms give voice and partner up with their customers that leads the proactively innovative research based on their latent needs. The study allows agribusiness marketing managers to reflect on the insertion of the B2B customer in the firm’s value co-creation process through a guided innovative research process.
