Aims and Scope
The Journal of Marketing Development and Competitiveness is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal that publishes thought-provoking, in-depth articles that cover the marketing arena and the interface between marketing and firm competitiveness. Articles in JMDC bridge the gap between theory and application. The journal is widely circulated with a diverse readership that includes both practitioners and academics, profit and nonprofit organizations, and government institutions. Although the focus is on marketing it also draws on other disciplines including entrepreneurship, management, economics, and finance. JMDC is committed to publishing a broad spectrum of conceptual and empirical articles that make a new theoretical and/or substantive contribution to the field.
The target acceptance bounds of JMDC run between 13% and 19%. All articles go through a double-blind review process, and acceptance decisions are made within forty-five days of submission. Authors of unaccepted papers are free to submit their papers to another journal.

Journal Submission and Review Process
We are committed to publishing papers that advance the study of the development of competitive marketing and communications programs, and we believe in a fair review process that is free from editor and reviewer bias. Here is a detailed overview of our peer review process:
Follow the steps below to submit your paper to the Journal of Marketing Development and Competitiveness
- Email your paper to the journal secretariat at jmdc@nabpress.com or upload it through the JMDC Submission page.
- The initial double-blind review will be completed within four to six weeks. We strive to get all papers reviewed in this timeframe, but we cannot guarantee it.
- If revisions are requested, revisions must be made within the timeframe specified by the reviewer.
- If the paper is accepted, the paper will be put in production and you will be notified of the approximate publication date.

Large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT and Google Gemini, do not satisfy our authorship criteria. Use of an LLM must be properly documented. If a LLM is used, please closely follow the guidelines below:
- Indicate the use of LLM(s) in the manuscript cover letter, methods section, and acknowledgements. Specify the scope of how LLMs were used.
- Ensure the content and citations produced by the LLM(s) are accurate, valid, and appropriate. Correct any mistakes or inconsistencies found. Provide a list of sources used to generate content and citations, including those generated by language models.
- Vigilantly check plagiarism, where LLM may have reproduced substantial text from other sources. Check the original sources to be sure you are not plagiarizing someone else's work.
