2. What Is Marketing?
Any Interpersonal And Inter-organisational Relationship
Involving An Exchange Is Marketing .
WILLIAM J.STANTON
3. What Is Marketing?
The essence of Marketing is a transaction -
an exchange- intended to satisfy human
needs and wants. There are three elements in
the marketing process :
(A) MARKETERS
(B) WHAT IS BEING MARKETED
(C) TARGET MARKET
4. What Is Marketing?
Marketing is a social process by which
individuals and groups obtain what they need
and want through creating and exchanging
products and value with others
PHILIP KOTLER
Simply put:
Marketing is the delivery of customer satisfaction
at a profit.
6. Needs, Wants And Demands
NEED : A state of felt deprivation of
some basic satisfaction ( Food,
Clothing, Shelter, Belonging etc. )
WANTS : Wants are desires for specific
satisfiers of the deeper needs. Needs
are few and wants are many .
DEMANDS : are wants backed by
------Ability to buy and Willingness to
buy
7. Products / Offers / Satisfiers / Resources
Anything that can be offered to someone
to satisfy a need or want is a product .
Product refers to physical object
Services refer to intangible object
8. Value and Satisfaction
Value is the customers’ estimate of the
Product’s capacity to satisfy a set of goals
Value is the ratio between what the
customer gets and what he gives (V=B/C)
Customer gets benefits & assume costs
WHEN :Customer Expectance=Performance
(satisfied)
Customer Expectance>Performance (dis-satisfied)
Customer Expectance<Performance (Highly
satisfied)
9. Three Basic Principles Of Marketing
(1) The Customer Value and Value Equation:
V=B/P Where; V=Value
B= Perceived Benefits
P= Price
(Value is increased by increasing the numerator
and/or reducing the denominator)
11. Value Proposition
Involving all benefits: All benefits are a complete list of positive features
that a supplier believes its offerings might deliver to end customers as a result
of good knowledge about the customers and the competitors.
Favourable points of difference: Favourable points of difference are the
factors that distinguish the supplier’s offerings among the next alternatives. To
achieve that, detailed knowledge about the next best competitor(s) is required
in order to shape the company’s strategy.
Resonating focus: The resonating focus approach differs in two respects:
more is not always better and it is better to focus on one or two key points to
deliver to the target customer. Suppliers in this approach must identify the
elements that make their offer superior in order to demonstrate, document
and communicate them clearly to the targeted customers.
12. Value Proposition - Advertisements

13. Value Proposition – Assignment 1
Involving all benefits
Favourable points of difference
Resonating focus
14. Exchange and Transaction
Exchange is the act of obtaining a desired
product by offering something in return .
Exchange takes place when 5 conditions are satisfied:
(a) Two parties should be there
(b) Each party must have something of value to the other
(c) Each party is capable of communication & delivery
(d) Each party is free to accept or reject the offer
(e) Each party believes that it is appropriate to deal with
the other party
15. Exchange and Transaction
Exchange is a process rather than event.
It is a value creating process because it
normally leaves both parties better off.
A transaction is a trade of values between
two or more parties ( A BARTER
TRANSACTION OR A MONETARY
TRANSACTION ).
16. Strategic Concept of Marketing
Shifted the focus of Marketing from Product
or customer to the CUSTOMER IN THE
CONTEXT OF THE BROADER EXTERNAL
ENVIRONMENT .
To succeed, marketers must know the
customer in a context including the
competition, Govt. Policy& regulation and the
broader economic, social and political macro
forces that shape the evolution of market.
17. Strategic Concept of Marketing
Shifted the Marketing Objectives
from PROFIT TO STAKEHOLDER
BENEFITS.
Stakeholders are individuals or groups
who have an interest in the activity of a
company . They include-----The employees and
management, Customers, Society, Shareholders,
Financiers/ Bankers, Government etc.
18. Strategic Concept of Marketing
Strategic Marketing Concept is
Strategic Management, which
integrates marketing with the other
management functions. ( Major task
is Profit for Stakeholders’ benefits ).
19. Marketing System
Marketing is concerned with the flow of goods
and services from the points of production to the
points of consumption.
There is a systematic arrangement of these
functions of marketing to move the goods and
services to the needy persons. This system is
essential to the creation of time, place and
possession utilities.
20. Marketing System
A dynamic marketing system must be willing
to undertake the following specific activities:
1. Define market area.
2. Research consumer wants and needs.
3. Develop and redevelop product / service.
4. Select, train, motivate and control human
resources.
5. Develop sales approach and advertising
support.
21. Goals Of The Marketing System
1. MAXIMIZE CONSUMPTION
2. MAXIMIZE CONSUMER SATISFACTION
3. MAXIMIZE CHOICE
4. MAXIMIZE LIFE QUALITY
22. Three Basic Principles Of Marketing
The essence of marketing can be summarized
in three great principles.
first identifies the purpose and task of
marketing,
second is the competitive reality of
marketing and
Third is the principal means for achieving the
first two.
23. Three Basic Principles Of Marketing
(2) Competitive or Differential Advantage :
The total offer must be more attractive than that
of the competition in order to create a
competitive advantage.
(3) Focus or the Concentration of
Attention : The task of creating
Customer Value at a Competitive advantage.

26. Three Levels Of Marketing
Responsive Marketing
Anticipative Marketing
Need Shaping Marketing
27. Responsive Marketing
It is the form of marketing when some
company defines an existing clear need
and prepare an affordable solution.
(Recognizing that women wanted to spend
less time for cooking and cleaning, led to
the invention of modern washing
machine, microwave oven etc.)
28. Anticipative Marketing
It is a form of marketing when a company recognize
an emergent or latent need, and come out with an
affordable solution. Evian, Perrier anticipated
growing market for bottled drinking water as the
quality of water deteriorated in many places.
Anticipative marketing is more risky than responsive
marketing; companies may come into market too
early or too late, or may even be totally wrong about
thinking that such a market would develop.(eg. Dish
washers in India)
29. Need Shaped Marketing
The broadest level of marketing occurs when
a company introduces product that nobody
asked for and often could not even conceive
of.
(e.g. Sony Walkman, Sony Compact Disc )
Late Akio Morita, founder and chairman of
Sony, who introduced these and many other
new products, summarized his marketing
philosophy in these words: “ I don’t serve
markets. I create them.”

34. BUSINESS IS MARKETING
Marketing can not be considered as a
separate function , it is the whole
business, seen from the point of view of
its final results.................that is

influencing the level, timing and
composition of demand. At times the

39. EVOLUTION OF MARKETING
MANAGEMENT
Marketing management has evolved
through following stages :
(1) Production Orientation Stage
(2) Sales Orientation Stage
(3) Marketing Orientation Stage
(4) Social Responsibility & Human
Orientation Stage
40. COMPANY ORIENTATION FOR
MARKETING ACTIVITIES
Marketing Management can be defined as the
effort to achieve desired EXCHANGE
outcomes with TARGET MARKETS.
Now the question arises :
(1) What philosophy should guide the
marketing activities?
(2) What weights should be given to the
interests of the organisation,the customers
and the society?
41. MARKETING CONCEPTS
There are FIVE competing concepts under
which organizations conduct their
marketing activities:
The Production Concept
The Product Concept
The Selling Concept
The Marketing Concept
The Societal Marketing Concept
42. (1) THE PRODUCTION CONCEPT
Produce
Sell
Consumers
Company
Produce more & more
Practically sells itself
43. THE PRODUCTION CONCEPT
Consumers will favour those products
that are widely available and low in cost.
Therefore increase production and cut
down costs.
And build profit through volume.
44. (2) THE PRODUCT CONCEPT
Produce
Quality
Products
Sell
Consumers
Practically sells itself,if
it gives most quality
for money
Buyers admire well-made products and can
appraise product quality and performance.
45. THE PRODUCT CONCEPT
Consumers will favour those products
that offer the most quality, performance,
or innovative features.
Therefore, improve quality, performance
and features.
This would lead to increased sales and
profits.
46. (3) SELLING CONCEPT
Consumers have normal tendency to resist.
Produce
Sell it Consumers
Aggressive selling &
promotion efforts
Making sales becomes primary function and
consumer satisfaction secondary .
47. THE SELLING CONCEPT
Consumers , if left alone , will not buy
enough of company’s products.
Therefore, promote sales aggressively.
And,build profit through quick turnover.
48. (4) MARKETING CONCEPT
“ LOVE THE CUSTOMER , NOT THE
PRODUCT ”
Consumers
Produce it
Market it
Learn what they
want(MR)
Sell what they want(Satisfy
needs of customers)
49. THE MARKETING CONCEPT
The key to achieving organizational goals
consist in determining the needs and
wants of target markets and delivering the
desired satisfactions more effectively and
efficiently than competitors.
And build profit through customer
satisfaction and loyalty.
50. (5) THE SOCIETAL MARKETING CONCEPT
It is Marketing Concept (+) Society’s well
being.
Balancing of following three considerations
while setting marketing policies :
-Customer’s want satisfaction
-Society’s well being
-Company’s profits
51. THE SOCIETAL MARKETING CONCEPT
The societal marketing concept holds that the
organization’s task is to determine the needs,
wants, and interests of target markets and to
deliver the desired satisfactions more
effectively and efficiently than competitors in
a way that preserves or enhances the
consumer’s and the society’s well being.
- It addresses conflicts between
consumer’s and firm’s short run wants and
long term welfare.
54. Marketing is more ‘pull’ than ‘push’ Selling involves ‘push’ strategy.
Marketing begins much before the production
of goods and services, i.e. with identification of customers’
needs. It continues even after the sale to ensure customer
satisfaction through after sales services
Selling comes after production and ends with the delivery of the
product and collection of payment.
Marketing has a wider connotation and includes many
activities like marketing research,
product planning & development, pricing, promotion,
distribution, selling etc.
Selling is a part of marketing.
It concerns itself primarily and truly with the
‘value satisfactions’ that should flow to the customer from
the exchange
It over emphasizes “the exchange’ aspect, without caring for the
‘value satisfactions’ inherent in the exchange.
It assumes: “Let the seller beware” It assumes: “Let the buyer beware”
The main job is to find the right products for
your customers.
The main job is to find the customers for your products.
The mindset is “What is that we can make here or source
from outside to satisfy the needs of the target customers”.
The mindset is “Hook the customer”
Conceptual and analytical skills are required Selling and conversational skills are required.
55. To illustrate the relationship between sales objectives,
strategies and tactics, consider:
Sales Goals /
Objectives
Marketing
Strategy
Sales and Distribution Strategy Tactics /
Action plans
• Increase sales
volume by 15
percent
• Enter export
markets
• Identify the countries
• Decide distribution channels
• Marketing / sales head to get
relevant information
• Negotiate and sign agreements
in 3-5 months with
intermediaries
• Penetrate
existing
domestic

training, motivation and
compensation
• Use effective and efficient
channels
• Add channels and members
• Train salespeople in deficient
areas
• Train field salesmanagers in
effective supervision
• Link sales volume quotas to
the incentive scheme of the
compensation plan
56. Sales & Marketing Thought Worlds
Marketing says… Sales says…
“Marketing people work long, hard hours, but
salespeople make more money.”
‘Sales makes the money for the company;
marketing just spends it.”
“Marketing develops strategies and plans and sales
is the implementation arm of marketing.
Salespeople are paid agents of marketing.”
“Marketers are locked in the ivory tower and don’t
have a clue about what customers really want.”
“Marketing is more reflective; sales is more
reactive.”
“Marketing is more bureaucratic than sales.
Marketing is too internally focused.”
“Salespeople are driven by specific accounts, the
volumes and price discounts.”
“The sales force will lose significant business if it
accepts the marketing price.”
58. USP (Unique selling proposition)
USP is a unique product attribute that a company
uses to set its (brand) product apart from the
competition.
e.g.
Volvo is a safe vehicle
Big Bazaar is the low priced supermarket.
59. USP ???
Emphasizing a single
attribute as the tactic to
position your brand can be
beneficial, as it allows us to
focus all the marketing input
towards one single attribute.
Can also be dangerous as
the attribute should be such,
which is identified as
valuable by the target
consumer. In addition,
since you are hanging your
hat on one attribute to
position your brand, the
competitor may have easy
time attacking you.
60. Conveying USP through a slogan…
(1 sentence that says it all)
Consistency is the key when it comes to the slogans.
Slogan should be consistent with the intended
positioning of the brand.
In general, should be consistent overtime.
When the market environment changes the positioning
of a brand, the slogan should also change.
61. Some Examples
Domino's Pizza: "You get fresh, hot pizza
delivered to your door in 30 minutes or less—
or it's free."
Head & Shoulders: "You get rid of dandruff"
Anacin: "Fast, fast, incredibly fast relief.“
Nirma: “Doodh si safedi Nirma se Aaye”
Close-up: Freshness
Vicco Vajradanti: Ayurvedic

66. Product

88. What is Myopia
• Nearsightedness--not inherited. It can be
prevented.
• Short sighted and inward looking approach to
marketing that focuses on the needs of the
firm instead of defining the firm and its
products in terms of the customers' needs
and wants.
89. “There is no such thing as a
growth industry, what we have
is growth opportunities.”
-Theodore Levitt
90. Guarantee a Self-Deceiving Cycle
Believe growth is guaranteed by an
expanding population
Believe there is no competitive substitutes
Have too much faith in mass production
Preoccupation with a product: focus on
product instead of customer
91. Assured Growth by Expansion
• Belief that increases in population and
affluence ensure growth
• Lack of innovation – A common
characteristic
▫ Companies focus on efficiency, not innovation
• Petroleum industry
▫ A prime example of this fallacy
▫ Reinforces Levitt’s caution of myopically
defining one’s industry
92. No Threat of Obsolescence
• The fallacy of believing competitive substitutes
don’t exist
• Petroleum industry
▫ A history of obsolete products due to competitive
substitutes
Kerosene Lamp
Kerosene Space Heater
93. Mass Production
• Lower product’s unit costs as output increases
• Focus on production, neglect marketing
• Selling is not marketing
• Focus on company’s needs, not customer’s
needs
94. Henry Ford
Brilliant Marketer Senseless Marketer
• Created a product
customer’s needed
• Created a product
customer’s could afford
• Created production
system to fit market
needs
• Refused to make cars in
any other color but black
95. Preoccupation with Product
• Industry declines instead of growing
• Example – Oil Companies
• Survival entails change
96. Creative Destruction
• When something new eliminates something
old
• Must become innovative – reinvent business
• Must change business strategy to survive
97. Marketing Myopia Today
Airline Industry
- IndiGo V/s Kingfisher
- Private carriers v/s National Carriers
98. Marketing Myopia Today
• Technology Industry
▫ More focused on the customer today than in 1960
▫ Apple
▫ E-commerce and E-Business ranked high in
customer satisfaction report
99. • The key question – “what business are
you in?”
100. Vision Statements
ITC: Sustain ITC's position as one of India's most
valuable corporations through world class performance,
creating growing value for the Indian economy and the
Company's stakeholders
GE: We bring good things to life
Amazon: To be earth’s most customer centric
company; to build a place where people can come to find
and discover anything they might want to buy online
101. Vision Statements
SONY: To create exciting new digital entertainment
experiences for consumers by bringing together cutting-
edge products with latest generation content and services.
TCS: TCS will be recognized and respected as
professional,
innovative, profitable information, and knowledge based
logistics/services enterprise
102. Vision Statements
Apple: "We believe that we are on the face of the earth to make great
products and that's not changing. We are constantly focusing on
innovating. We believe in the simple not the complex. We believe that we
need to own and control the primary technologies behind the products
that we make, and participate only in markets where we can make a
significant contribution. We believe in saying no to thousands of projects,
so that we can really focus on the few that are truly important and
meaningful to us. We believe in deep collaboration and cross-pollination
of our groups, which allow us to innovate in a way that others cannot. And
frankly, we don't settle for anything less than excellence in every group in
the company, and we have the self-honesty to admit when we're wrong
and the courage to change. And I think regardless of who is in what job
those values are so embedded in this company that Apple will do
extremely well.
103. Conclusion
“Organizations must learn to think of itself not
as producing goods or services but as buying
customers, as doing the things that will make
people want to do business with it.”
Theodore Levitt
Notes de l'éditeur
BASIC CONCEPTS OF MARKETING
Article written comparing customer satisfaction with Southwest (where bags fly free) and American Airlines which habitually ranks low on satisfaction surveys Paying for checking bags, food, and increase in airline ticket costs lead to dissatisfied customers Sadly, airlines and waiting on the cable t.v guy were tied in customer satisfaction. Some airlines seem to get it, while others are going to suffer in the near future because of their cost strategy.
When Levitt wrote this article in 1960, the technology was mostly based on satisfying the military’s needs. Today while there is a portion of technology companies that are still focused on this especially in war times, many companies are gearing products toward the customer’s needs and wants.
