What is Marketing…??

Selling?

Advertising?

Promotions?

Making products available in stores?

Maintaining inventories?

All of the above, plus much more!

Marketing = ?

Marketing is the process of planning and executing the conception, pricing, promotion, and distribution of ideas, goods, services to create exchanges that satisfy individual and organizational goals

American Marketing Association

Marketing = ?

Marketing management is the art and science of choosing target markets and getting, keeping, and growing customers through creating, delivering, and communicating superior customer value.

Scope – What do we market

Goods Services Events Experiences Personalities Place Organizations Properties Information Ideas and concepts

Core Concepts of Marketing

Based on : Needs, Wants, Desires / demand

Products, Utility, Value & Satisfaction

Exchange, Transactions & Relationships

Markets, Marketing & Marketers.

Needs, wantsdemands

Markets Marketing &Marketers

Utility, Value &Satisfaction

Xchange, TransactionRelationships

Products

Need – food ( is a must )

Want – Pizza, Burger, French fry's ( translation of a need as per our experience )

Demand – Burger ( translation of a want as per our willingness and ability to buy )

Desire – Have a Burger in a five star hotel

In order to understand Marketing let us begin with the Marketing Triangle

Customers

CompetitionCompany

Who is a Customer ??

Anyone who is in the market looking at a product /

service for attention, acquisition, use or consumption

that satisfies a want or a need

CUSTOMER IS . . . . .

Customer –

CUSTOMER has needs, wants, demands and desires

Understanding these needs is starting point of the entire marketing

These needs, wants …… arise within a framework or an ecosystem

Understanding both the needs and the ecosystem is the starting point of a long term relationship

How Do Consumers Choose Among Products & Services?

Value - the value or benefits the customers gain from using the product versus the cost of obtaining the product.

Satisfaction - Based on a comparison of performance and expectations.

Performance > Expectations => Satisfaction

Performance < Expectations => Dissatisfaction

Customers - Problem Solution

As a priority , we must bring to our customers “WHAT THEY NEED”

We must be in a position to UNDERSTAND their problems

Or in a new situation to give them a chance to AVOID the problems

Customer looks for Value

Value = Benefit / Cost

Benefit = Functional Benefit + Emotional Benefit

Cost = Monetary Cost + Time Cost + Energy Cost + Psychic Cost

Analysis Of Competition

Who are your competitors?

What are their strengths and weaknesses?

What have been their strategies?

How are they likely to respond to your Marketing plan?

Strategic Marketing

Strategic marketing management is concerned with how we will create value for the customer

Asks two main questions

What is the organization’s main activity at a particular time? – Customer Value

What are its primary goals and how will these be achieved? – how will this value be delivered

Strategic Planning

Strategic Planning is the managerial process of creating and maintaining a fit between the organization’s objectives and resources and the evolving market opportunities.

Also called Strategic Management Process

The Marketing Mix

The conventional view of the marketing mix consisted of four components (4 Ps): Product, Price, Place/ distribution and Promotion.

Generally acknowledged that this is too narrow today; now includes , Processes, Productivity [technology ]People [employees], Physical evidence

Marketers today are focused on virtually all aspects of the firm’s operations that have the potential to affect the relationship with customers.

The “8Ps” of Integrated Service Management vs. the Traditional “4Ps”

► Product elements

► Place, cyberspace, and time

► Process

► Productivity and quality

► People

► Promotion and education

► Physical evidence

► Price and other user outlays

The Give and Get of Marketing

Great Words on Marketing

1. “The purpose of a company is ‘to create a customer…The only profit center is the customer.’”

2. “A business has two—and only two—basic functions: marketing and innovation. Marketing and innovation produce results: all the rest are costs.”

3. “The aim of marketing is to make selling unnecessary.”

4. “While great devices are invented in the Laboratory, great products are invented in the Marketing department.”

5. “Marketing is too important to be left to the marketing department.”

Drivers of Customer Satisfaction

Many aspects of the firm’s value proposition contribute to customer satisfaction:

The core product or service offered

Support services and systems

The technical performance of the firm

Interaction with the firm and it employees

The emotional connection with customers

Ability to add value and to differentiate as a firm focuses more on the top levels

Marketers and MarketsMarketers are focused on stimulating

exchanges with customers who make up markets – B2C or B2B.

The market is comprised of people who play a series of roles: decision makers, consumers, purchasers, and influencers.

It is absolutely essential that marketers have a detailed understanding of consumers, their needs and wants.

Much happens before and after the sale to affect customer satisfaction

• Pricing Strategy• Importance of:

– knowing the market

– elasticity– keeping an eye

on rivals

Pricing Strategies

Penetration Pricing

• Price set to ‘penetrate the market’• ‘Low’ price to secure high volumes• Typical in mass market products –

chocolate bars, food stuffs, household goods, etc.

• Suitable for products with long anticipated life cycles

• May be useful if launching into a new market

Market Skimming

• High price, Low volumes• Skim the profit from the

market• Suitable for products that

have short life cycles or which will face competition at some point in the future (e.g. after a patent runs out)

• Examples include: Playstation, jewellery, digital technology, new DVDs, etc.

Many are predicting a firesale in laptops as supply exceeds demand.Copyright: iStock.com

Value Pricing

• Price set in accordance with customer perceptions about the value of the product/service

• Examples include status products/exclusive products

Companies may be able to set prices according to perceived value.

Loss Leader

• Goods/services deliberately sold below cost to encourage sales elsewhere

• Typical in supermarkets, e.g. at Christmas, selling bottles of gin at £3 in the hope that people will be attracted to the store and buy other things

• Purchases of other items more than covers ‘loss’ on item sold

• e.g. ‘Free’ mobile phone when taking on contract package

Psychological Pricing

• Used to play on consumer perceptions

• Classic example - £9.99 instead of £10.99!

• Links with value pricing – high value goods priced according to what consumers THINK should be the price

Going Rate (Price Leadership)

• In case of price leader, rivals have difficulty in competing on price – too high and they lose market share, too low and the price leader would match price and force smaller rival out of market

• May follow pricing leads of rivals especially where those rivals have a clear dominance of market share

• Where competition is limited, ‘going rate’ pricing may be applicable – banks, petrol, supermarkets, electrical goods – find very similar prices in all outlets

Tender Pricing

Tender Pricing• Many contracts awarded on a tender basis• Firm (or firms) submit their price for carrying

out the work• Purchaser then chooses which represents best

value• Mostly done in secret

Price Discrimination

• Charging a different price for the same good/service in different markets

• Requires each market to be impenetrable

• Requires different price elasticity of demand in each market

Prices for rail travel differ for the same journey at different times of the day

Destroyer Pricing/Predatory Pricing

Destroyer/Predatory Pricing

• Deliberate price cutting or offer of ‘free gifts/products’ to force rivals (normally smaller and weaker) out of business or prevent new entrants

• Anti-competitive and illegal if it can be proved

Absorption/Full Cost Pricing

• Full Cost Pricing – attempting to set price to cover both fixed and variable costs

• Absorption Cost Pricing – Price set to ‘absorb’ some of the fixed costs of production

Marginal Cost Pricing

• Marginal cost – the cost of producing ONE extra or ONE fewer item of production

• MC pricing – allows flexibility • Particularly relevant in transport where fixed

costs may be relatively high• Allows variable pricing structure – e.g. on a

flight from London to New York – providing the cost of the extra passenger is covered, the price could be varied a good deal to attract customers and fill the aircraft

Marginal Cost Pricing• Example:

Aircraft flying from Bristol to Edinburgh – Total Cost (including normal profit) = £15,000 of which £13,000 is fixed cost*

Number of seats = 160, average price = £93.75

MC of each passenger = 2000/160 = £12.50

If flight not full, better to offer passengers chance of flying at £12.50 and fill the seat than not fill it at all! *All figures are estimates only

Contribution Pricing

• Contribution = Selling Price – Variable (direct costs)

• Prices set to ensure coverage of variable costs and a ‘contribution’ to the fixed costs

• Similar in principle to marginal cost pricing

• Break-even analysis might be useful in such circumstances

Target Pricing

• Setting price to ‘target’ a specified profit level

• Estimates of the cost and potential revenue at different prices, and thus the break-even have to be made, to determine the mark-up

• Mark-up = Profit/Cost x 100

Cost-Plus Pricing

• Calculation of the average cost (AC) plus a mark up

• AC = Total Cost/Output

Influence of Elasticity

• Any pricing decision must be mindful of the impact of price elasticity

• The degree of price elasticity impacts on the level of sales and hence revenue

• Elasticity focuses on proportionate (percentage) changes

• PED = % Change in Quantity demanded/% Change in Price

• Price Inelastic:• % change in Q < % change in P• e.g. a 5% increase in price would be

met by a fall in sales of something less than 5%

• Revenue would rise• A 7% reduction in price would lead to a

rise in sales of something less than 7%• Revenue would fall

• Price Elastic:• % change in quantity demanded > %

change in price• e.g. A 4% rise in price would lead to sales

falling by something more than 4%• Revenue would fall• A 9% fall in price would lead to a rise in

sales of something more than 9%• Revenue would rise

Product

Product• Methods used to

improve/differentiate the product and increase sales or target sales more effectively to gain a competitive advantage e.g.– Extension strategies– Specialised versions– New editions– Improvements – real or

otherwise!– Changed packaging– Technology, etc.

Image copyright: www.freeimages.co.uk

Promotion

• Strategies to make the consumer aware of the existence of a product or service

• NOT just advertising

• The means by which products and services get from producer to consumer and where they can be accessed by the consumer– The more places to buy the product

and the easier it is made to buy it, the better for the business (and the consumer?)

People

• People represent the business– The image they present can be important– First contact often human – what is the lasting

image they provide to the customer?– Extent of training and knowledge

of the product/service concerned– Mission statement – how relevant?– Do staff represent the desired culture

of the business?

Process

Process• How do people consume services?• What processes do they have to go through to

acquire the services?• Where do they find the availability

of the service?– Contact– Reminders– Registration– Subscription– Form filling– Degree of technology

Physical Environment

• The ambience, mood or physical presentation of the environment– Smart/shabby?– Trendy/retro/modern/old fashioned?– Light/dark/bright/subdued?– Romantic/chic/loud?– Clean/dirty/unkempt/neat?– Music?– Smell?

Sales Promotion

Whereas advertising gives a reason to buy, SP gives an incentive to buy

It is part of the Marketing spend of all companies and these days SP

spends in many companies exceed that of the adspends

• Internal• External

Internal reasons

• Top management is more conducive to spending on promotions

• Line managers under greater pressure to achieve targets

• Justification of expenditure is easy

External reasons

• Increase in number of brands• Consumer is more price savvy• Greater pressure from trade to

liquidate stocks• Add effectiveness declining owing

to rising costs, media clutter and legal constraints

SP is a push strategy

• Since it is at the last point where the consumer is often at the point of buying, the additional incentive makes a last ditch effort to convert the customer on to the incentivised brand

SP is of two types

• Trade• Consumer

Trade promotion

• Liquidating heavy inventories• Persuade retailers to carry stock,

carry more than usual stock, promote brand franchise

Consumer promotion

• Stimulate purchase• Induce trial• Create new users• Increase repurchase from

occasional customers• Reward loyal customers

Forms of trade promotion

• Bulk discounts• Free materials• Display windows• Shelf hiring• Lucky draws• ‘Mystery’ customer• Redistribution incentives• Shop salesmen incentives

Forms of consumer promotion

• Free samples• Free gifts• Coupons• In-packs• Price packs• Price-offs• Sweepstakes• Bundling offers

SP spurs action because they are supposed to run for a limited time

While the advertising budgets are controlled by the brand

managers, SP budgets usually are controlled by the

sales managers

The more the product’s quality and its advertising persuasiveness fail to meet competition, the greater is the need for promotion to improve the price – value relationship

Promotion at different stages of the PLC

• Introduction – wise to use heavy promotion to induce trials and promote brand franchise

• Growth – promotion should be limited ,if any• Maturity – Higher promotions required since the

brand is under attack from competitors or product quality or advertising effectiveness is tapering off

• Decline – Heavy promotions. Used only to retain a set of loyal customers. Prior to withdrawal of the product, it could be used as a one time stock clearance from the trade

Essential elements for an effective SP programme

• Significant value before promotion is effective• Promotions must be part of an overall plan

• Every brand must have a promotion objective and a strategy statement

• A written tactical plan – time frame, costs, evaluation yardsticks

• Factual knowledge must be gathered to plan

• Specialised professional skill and knowledge must be applied to every promotion operations

Final considerations

• Don’t promote if the product is not good• Promotions rarely stop a declining sales curve• It is very easy to lose the promotional gains made if your

promotion has not been effective in retaining new customers. So the product has to speak for itself.

• The objective of the promotion is to wean away users from competition and create new users.

• Excessive promotions lead to diminishing returns and may devalue the brand

Cont’d

• Promotions may be used in conjunction with advertising and other marketing communication tools

• It should be novel and attractive• Ensure supply lines are good and adequate

stock is available right through the promotion• Cater for contingencies. Have escape routes

built into the plan• Trade has to be handled tactfully• Reimburse incentives/ rewards/ gifts promptly• Must be within the legal boundaries

The Marketing Mix• Blend of the mix depends upon:• Marketing objectives• Type of product• Target market• Market structure• Rivals’ behaviour• Global issues – culture/religion, etc.• Marketing position• Product portfolio

INTERNET FEATURE

Brand Advertising On-Line Has Taken Off

SEARCH WORKSGoogle and Yahoo! Have demonstrated the power of the Web by using customers’ search queries to connect them with advertisers.CUSTOMERS ARE ONLINEMore than half of American households have always-on Net connections. And the Web reaches millions at the office. The Big Three portals—Yahoo, AOL, and MSN—reach a combined 50 million a day–-twice the TV audience of a World Series game.VIDEO ROCKSThe adoption of broadband, which can handle videos, lets advertisers put TV-like ads online. Longer spots by BMW and Adidas have reached cult status. As demand for video soars, portals sell choice slots in advance, much like TV’s up-front sales.FEEDBACK IS INSTANTMarketers and online publishers have tools to track an ad’s performance in real time allowing them to make quick adjustments if customers aren’t clicking. This turns the Net into a vast marketing lab. And as video grows, it becomes a test bed for TV ads.CUSTOMERS LEAVE TRAILSIt was an empty promise during the dot-com days, but now advertisers have the technology to follow customers, click by click, and to hit them with relevant ads. The upshot? No wasted money peddling dog food to cat owners.

Percent of Sales Fixed percent of sales, often based on past

expenditure patterns.

Comparative Parity Budget is based largely

upon what competition is doing.

Objective and Task Set objectives and then determine tasks

(and costs) necessary to meet the objectives.

Percent of Sales The method is very arbitrary. Budget may be

too high when sales are high and too low when sales are low.

Comparative Parity Differences in marketing strategy may require

different budget levels.

Objective and Task The major issue in using this method is

deciding the right objectives so measurement of results is important.

Advertising Agencies in Perspective

Fast change has come to the advertising industry.

Huge, integrated agencies face a challenging future.

Do clients want a full-service agency?

The business model is in need of change.

The basis of compensation continues to be debated and altered.

Specialists (e.g. media buying services) are being used.

Importantly, the core of the creative process is the agency.

Several methods are available to evaluate advertising results.
