Production concept

The production concept holds that consumers will prefer

products that are widely available and inexpensive.

1010

Product concept

-The product concept holds that consumers will favor those products that

offer the most quality, performance, or innovative features

-In order to compete effectively, the product needs to have features that

appeal to individual consumers. In a product-oriented firm, the products

are designed to incorporate a large number of features in order to meet

the needs of a large number of consumers. Unfortunately, the cost

becomes too high for most people, and of course people do not want to

pay for features that they are unlikely ever to use.

1111

Selling concept

The selling concept holds that consumers and

businesses, will ordinarily not buy enough of the

organization’s products, therefore, the organization

must undertake aggressive selling and promotion

effort.

1212

Marketing conceptThe marketing concept holds that the key to achieving organizational

goals consists of the company being more effective than competitors in

creating, delivering, and communicating superior customer value to its

chosen target markets.

Reactive marketing orientation: understanding and meeting consumers’ expressed needs.

Proactive marketing orientation: researching or imagining latent consumers’ needs

through a “probe-and-learn” process

British airways and American airlines may use the same kind of aircraft to fly executives first class between New York and London but British airways (BA) beats American airlines by meeting customers’ needs for convenience and rest at every step of the journey

BA value delivery system includes a separate first class express check in and security clearance plus a pre-flight express meal service in the first class lounge so that time pressed executives can maximize sleep time on the plane without the distraction of in flight meals . BA was the first to put seats that recline into perfectly flat beds into first class section
