#3 - Equity Theory of Motivation
Fundamentally, it entails ... •Employee's perception and/or view of reality of their inputs in comparison to others in similar situation •Inputs = what I put into my job •Outputs = what I get from my job •Employees will respond in different ways •Perceptions of inequity come from: •Work assignments •Promotions •Compensation •Ratings reports •Office assignments •All of these situations are emotionally charged as they relate to perceptions of self-worth •Examples: American Airlines (executive comp.); State & County Governments (salary/benefit tradeoff) •When individuals believe they have been treated unfairly in comparison to other coworkers, they react in a way to try to fight the inequity, such as: •Change work outputs - 'throttle back' •Change compensation - ask for a raise •Change perceptions - rationalize?; cognitive dissonance •Choose a different referent •Leave situation - becomes a retention problem Note: the inverse can be true if there is over-rewarding

CONTACT EFFICIENCY
A marketing channel allows for consumers to more efficiently come into contact with products. Without the retail intermediary, in this case, the each consumer has to visit each manufacturer to get information or to purchase. With a retailer in the supply chain, each customer can visit one location, and get all the information they need, and/or make a purchase Travel Industry - Think of how Expedia makes shopping for an airline ticket so much easier....instead of having to go to each airline's website, you go to one central location to compare prices an schedules, and to make a purchase. Amazon does the same thing for a different set of products and services.
