N2 - The research addressing how firms master long-term success in dynamic environments has highlighted the important role of dynamic capabilities as an enabler for responding to market transformation. However, less attention has been devoted to how firms may shape such transformations by creating customer demand. In this paper, we explore how firms realize the creation of customer demand. Our qualitative study in the field of industrial sales contributes to the literature on dynamic capabilities by showing how a “market-shaping capability” comes into being through interactions between frontline employees and customers.
