Abstract

This article aims to analyze how the literature on digital marketing capabilities explains competitive advantage and to assess the extent to which Resource-Advantage Theory can be used as an integrative lens for understanding the relationships among resources, capabilities, and market outcomes. This study employs a systematic literature review approach following the PRISMA. The review was conducted through descriptive bibliometric analysis and keyword mapping using VOSviewer, based on metadata and abstracts. The findings show a significant increase in publications in 2024-2025, with dominant themes including digital marketing, competitive advantage, business performance, social media, big data/AI, data governance, marketing agility, customer experience, and sustainability. The review also confirms that the resource-based view and dynamic capabilities are the dominant theoretical foundations, whereas Resource-Advantage Theory has not yet been used explicitly. Accordingly, this study proposes a Resource-Advantage process model and a future research agenda that emphasizes innovation, trust, data governance, and sustainability.
