What is Marketing?• Attracting new customers by promising
and delivering superior value.
• Building long-term relationships with customers by delivering continued customer satisfaction.
• Creating, building and managing these relationships profitably over time.
• Broad Definition:-
Marketing is a social and managerial process by which individuals and groups obtain what they need and want through creating and exchanging value with others.
• Narrower Definition:-
The process by which companies create value for customers and build strong customer relationships in order to capture value from customers in return.
The Marketing Process Model1. Understand the marketplace and customer
needs and wants.
2. Design a customer-driven marketing strategy.
3. Construct a marketing program that delivers superior value.
4. Build profitable relationships and create customer delight.
5. Capture value from customers to create profits and customer equity.
1.Understanding The Marketplace And The Consumer Needs
Needs, Wants and Demands• Needs are states of felt deprivation.
– Physical:• Food, clothing, shelter, safety.
– Social:• Belonging, affection.
– Individual:• Learning, knowledge, self-expression.
Needs, Wants and Demands• Wants are needs shaped by culture and
individual personality.– Jeans vs a sari.– Individual expression vs. collective good.
• Demands are wants combined with buying power.– Hilfiger vs. Giant Tiger.– Jetta vs. Jaguar.
Products, Services, Experiences• Products.
– Anything that can be offered for.– Acquisition, attention, use or consumption.– That might satisfy a need or want.
• Services.– Activities or benefits offered.– Essentially intangible.– Do not result in ownership of anything.
• Experiences. – Create, stage and market brand experiences.– Attending live theatre, music concert.
Marketing Myopia• Sellers pay more attention to the specific
products they offer than to the benefits and experiences produced by the products.
• They focus on the “wants” and lose sight of the “needs.”– The great railroads lost out to the exploding trucking
industry.– They forgot that their business was solving
transportation problems, not running railroads.

How Do Consumers Choose Among Offers?
Customer ValueCustomer Value – Difference between the values the customer gains from owning the product versus the costs of obtaining it. Customers buy from the firm that offers the highest customer perceived value
Customer SatisfactionCustomer Satisfaction – Perceived performance in providing value, relative to expectations – how well the product lives up to expectations
Important: Important: Perceptions are keyPerceptions are key Set the right level of Set the right level of
expectationexpectation
Value and Satisfaction• If the performance and the customer’s
experience is lower than expectations, than customer satisfaction is low.
• If the performance and the customer’s experience meets expectations, than the customer is satisfied.
• If the performance and the customer’s experience exceeds expectations, than the customer is delighted.
Exchange and Transactions• Exchange.
– The act of obtaining a desired object from someone by offering something in return.
• Transaction. – A trade between two parties that involves:
• two things of value.• agreed upon conditions.• time of agreement.• place of agreement.
What is a Market?• The set of actual and potential buyers of
a product.
• These people share a need or want that can be satisfied through exchange relationships.
Core Marketplace Concepts• Customers have needs, wants and
demands.• Marketers offer products or services.• Customers seek value and satisfaction
from offers.• Demands and offers result in
transactions and relationships.• Markets are all potential customers with a
similar demand.
Customer-Driven Marketing• Divide markets into segments.
• Choose the right segment to target.
• Offer a unique value proposition.
• Differentiate your offer from competitor offers.
• Build customer value and satisfaction.
• Nurture long-term customer relationships.

ELEMENTS OF A MODERN MARKETING SYSTEM
2.Designing A Customer Driven Marketing Strategy
Marketing Management
The art and science of choosing target markets and building profitable
relationships with them.
Selecting Customers To Serve
• The company must decide who it will serve. It does this by dividing the market into segments of customers (market segmentation) and selecting which segment it will go after (target marketing)
• Segmentation divides the market into groups of customers with varying needs and wants.
• Targeting selects the right segment to nurture.
Connections With Customers• Most marketers are
targeting fewer, potentially more profitable, customers
• They are asking:– Can we serve this customer
profitably?
• Focus has shifted to:– Retaining current customers– Connecting in a deeper, more
lasting way – growing “share of customer”
– Building relationships for greater profitability
Demand Management• Marketing management seeks to control
demand.– Increasing demand is the norm.– Demarketing seeks to reduce demand in
certain circumstances.

Value Proposition
The set of benefits or values the company promises to deliver to its target markets
to satisfy their needs.
Marketing Management Orientations• Marketing Management wants to design
strategies that will build profitable relationships with target consumers
• There are five alternative concepts under which organizations design and carry out there marketing strategies. These are:-
1. The Production Concept
2. The Product Concept
3. The Selling Concept
4. The Marketing Concept
5. The Societal Marketing Concept
27
Production Concept
Product Concept
Selling Concept
Marketing Concept
Societal Mktg. Concept
• Consumers favor products that are available and highly affordable
• Consumers favor products that offer the most quality, performance, and innovative features
• Consumers will not buy enough unless the firm undertakes large-scale selling and promotion efforts
• Focuses on knowing the needs and wants of target markets and delivering satisfactions better than competitors
• Focuses on the needs and wants of target markets and on maintaining or improving customer and societal well-being
Marketing Management OrientationsBased on different assumptions about:
- what customers want- what marketers should do
28
1.Production ConceptDemand > Supply; High Costs(Still appropriate under these limited circumstances) (p. 12)
Consumers Favor: Widely available Highly affordable
Management’s Focus: “engineer”“engineer” Improving production efficiency Improving distribution efficiency
DANGER: Marketing MyopiaDANGER: Marketing Myopia Focuses too narrowly on company operations, not on
customer needs/wants Company “falls in love” with its operations, not with its
customers
29
2.Product Concept (p. 12)
Consumers Favor: Quality, performance, innovative features
Management’s Focus: “inventor”“inventor” Making superior products (“build a better
mousetrap”) Continuous product improvements
DANGER: Marketing MyopiaDANGER: Marketing Myopia Focuses too narrowly on physical products, not on underlying
customer needs/wants Company “falls in love” with its products, not with its
customers Makes products that customers don’t care about (don’t
need/want) Over-improve (customers don’t care about the improvements) New technology replaces (e. g. , more convenient, less expensive)
30
Selling Concept(May be appropriate for “unsought products”) (p. 12)
Consumers Favor: Not buying, or not buying enough
Management’s Focus: “hard sell “hard sell salesperson”salesperson” Large-scale selling and promotion effort Coaxing and pushing people to buy
DANGER: DANGER: “Sell what you can make”“Sell what you can make”
(versus “make what you can sell”)(versus “make what you can sell”) Most customers who are dissatisfied do not buy again Most customers who are dissatisfied spread bad word-of-
mouth
31
Marketing Concept(pp. 12-13)
Consumers Favor: Products that satisfy their wants and needs
Management’s Focus: “customer “customer centered”centered” Understanding needs and wants of
customers – what they need/want the product to do for them
Underlying and latent needs as well as stated needs
Delivering desired satisfactions better than competitors do

3.Preparing A Marketing Plan And Program
• The company's marketing strategy outlines which customers the company will serve and how it will create value for these customers.
• Next the marketer constructs a marketing program that will actually deliver the intended value to the target customers.
• The marketing program builds customer relationships by transforming the marketing strategy into action. It consists of the firms Marketing mix.
The Marketing Mix• The marketing mix is the set of
marketing tools the firm uses to implement its marketing strategy.
• The major marketing mix tools are classified into four broad groups, called the four Ps of marketing. These are:-
1. Product2. Price3. Place4. Promotion
Marketing Mix (contd.)To deliver on its value proposition, the firm
must:• Create a need-satisfying marketing offer
(Product)• Decide how much it will charge for the
offer (Price)• How it will make the offer available to the
target consumers (Place)• How it will communicate with target
customers about the offer and persuade them of its merits (Promotion)
4. Building Customer Relationships
Relationship Marketing• Customer relationship management.
The process of building and maintaining profitable customer relationships by delivering superior customer value and satisfaction.
Relationship Building Blocks: Customer Value and Satisfaction
• The key to building lasting customer relationships is to create superior customer value and satisfaction. Satisfied customers are more likely to be loyal customers and to give the company a larger share of their business
The Customer’s Experience• Customer perceived value.
– Customer’s subjective view of the offer’s value compared to competitive offers.
• Customer satisfaction.– Customer’s subjective view of the value received in
return for the purchase price.
• Customer delight.– Customer’s subjective view of the increased
value received above the purchase price.
43
Customer Satisfaction
Expectations are largely based on marketer information and promises – must create realistically high expectations
Reality = satisfaction has been Reality = satisfaction has been decliningdecliningPerformance

P < E
Customer is dissatisfied
Performance matches
expectations
P = E
Customer is satisfied
Performance exceeds
expectations
P > E
Customer is highly
satisfied
or delighted !
Satisfaction = Performance (P) – Expectation Satisfaction = Performance (P) – Expectation (E)(E)
Customer Relationship Levels and Tools
• Companies can build customer relationships at many levels, depending upon the nature of the target market.
• At one extreme a company with many low margin customers may seek to develop basic relationships with the customers. For example proctor & gamble does not phone or call on all of its customers to get to know the personally.
Customer Relationship Levels and Tools (continued)
• At the other extreme, in markets with few customers and high margins, sellers want to create full partnerships with key customers. For example proctor & gamble teams work closely with Wal-mart
The Changing Nature of Customer Relationship
Relating With More Carefully Selected Customers
• Today most marketers realize that they do not want relationships with every customer. Instead companies are now targeting fewer more profitable customers.
• Many companies now use customer profitability analysis to weed out losing customers and target winning ones for pampering.
Relating for the Long-Term• Just as companies are being more selective
about which customers they can choose to serve they are serving chosen customers in a deeper more lasting way
Relating Directly• Beyond connecting more deeply with their
customers, many companies are also connecting more directly.
• Direct marketing is booming. Consumers can now buy virtually any product with out going to the store – by telephone, mail-order catalogs and online.
Partner Relationship Management• Working with partners in other company
departments and outside the company to jointly bring greater value to the customers.– Every department in an organization
contributes to customer satisfaction.– Suppliers are carefully controlled through
supply chain management.– Strategic alliances create new opportunities
to delight customers.
5.Capturing Value from Customers
Creating Customer Loyalty And Retention
• Good Customer relationship management creates customer delight.
• In turn delighted customers remain loyal to the company and its products.
• Thus the aim of customer relationship management is to create not just customer satisfaction, but customer delight.
Customer lifetime value.• The value of the entire stream of
purchases that the customer would make over a lifetime of patronage.
Capturing Value In Return• Share of customer.
– Share of customer is the percentage of customers that buy a company’s product of all customers purchasing in that product category.
– Companies continuously strive to grow their share of customer.
– Creating brand extensions is a favoured method of growing share of customer.
Building Customer Equity• The total combined customer lifetime
value of all of the company’s customers.
• Often a more accurate measure of a company’s value than sales or market share.
• Combination of market share, share of customer and lifetime customer value.
Customer Relationship Groups• Targeting the right customers at the right
time.– Butterflies have high profitability with low loyalty.– True Friends have high profitability with high loyalty.– Strangers have low profitability with low loyalty.– Barnacles have low profitability with high loyalty.
• Challenge: make the Butterflies more loyal and make the Barnacle more profitable.
• Keep the True Friends and “fire” the Strangers.
Butterflies
Good fit between company’s offerings and customer’s needs: High profit potential
True Friends
Good fit between company’s offerings and customers needs: highest profit potential
Strangers
Little fit between company’s offerings and customer’s needs: lowest profit potential
Barnacles
Limited fit between the company’s offerings and customer’s need: Low profit potential
Short-term Customers Long-term Customers
High Profitability
Low Profitability
New Marketing Technologies• Technology has changed how marketers
build value.– Internet and e-commerce/e-business.– Fast and global communications.– Wireless technologies.– Relational databases.
• Instant, highly targeted communication with customers and suppliers.
New Global Markets• International trade is the new frontier.
• Export is critical to a country’s economic growth.
• Difficult decision:– Delay means risking loss of growing global
markets.– Proceed means high risk but potentially high
reward.
Ethics and Responsibility• Worldwide consumerism and
environmentalism movements exert. pressure for greater responsibility
• Notion of “caring capitalism” tied to societal marketing concepts.– Seeking ways to make a profit by serving the
best long-run interests of customers and communities.
Not-For-Profit Marketing• Marketing of ideas, values and
institutions.
• Increasing awareness that these organizations must build relationships with constituents and stakeholders.
• Challenge of using new marketing techniques for not-for-profit initiatives.
Looking Back• Define marketing and the marketing processes.• Explain the importance of understanding
customers and the marketplace.• Identify the five core marketplace concepts.• Identify the key elements of a customer-driven
marketing strategy.• Discuss customer relationship management
and ways of creating and obtaining value.• Describe the major trends and forces changing
today’s marketing landscape.
