Abstract

Interpersonal contact is required for many types of marketing exchanges. Numerous studies have focused upon this interaction process inherent in marketing exchanges - specifically the buyer-seller dyad (see, for example, Busch and Wilson 1976; Woodside and Davenport 1974). Typically, the evaluation of the buyer-seller dyad utilizes the transaction process as the base unit of analysis. A general conclusion of much of this research stream is the greater the similarity between the buyer and seller, the more likely a transaction will be successfully completed.
