Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: Business marketing is the marketing of goods and services to individuals and organizations for purposes other than personal consumption. The sale of a personal computer to a college is an example of business marketing. If that same computer is purchased for personal or family consumption or as a gift, it is a consumer good. The size of the business market in the U.S. and most countries substantially exceeds that of the consumer market.
Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: A product that is purchased for personal use is considered a consumer good. If the same product is purchased for use in a business, it is a business product. The key in classification as a business product is intended use.
Chapter 7 Business Marketing
Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: It is hard to imagine that commercial use of the Internet began as recently as the mid-1990s. By 2005, there were over one billion Internet users worldwide. The use of the Internet to facilitate activities between organizations is called business-to-business electronic commerce. In 2008, the U.S. alone was expected to account for over $1 trillion of B2B e-commerce.
Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: Marketers must be able to comprehend data stored in the log files generated by their Web servers. By evaluating this information, a marketer can fine-tune the marketing effort to maximize online success. For marketers today, three of the most important measurements of Web site hits are recency, frequency, and monetary value. Combining frequency with the length of time a visitor spends on the Web site and the number of pages viewed can provide a measure of a site’s stickiness factor.

Disintermediation means eliminating intermediaries such as wholesalers or distributors from a marketing channel. Source Andrew J.

Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: Relationship marketing has become an important business marketing strategy as customers have become more demanding and competition has become more intense. Building long-term relationships with customers creates competitive advantage.
Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: Strategic alliances can take the form of licensing or distribution agreements, joint ventures, research and development consortia, and partnerships. Businesses form strategic alliances to leverage the assets they have (such as technology, financial resources, market access) by combining these assets with those of other firms. Another rationale behind the formation of strategic alliances is to achieve economies of scale.
Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: The concept of strategic alliances has been used in foreign cultures, such as Mexico, China, Japan, Korea, and much of Europe for a long time. For example, in Japan the basis of exchange between firms is personal relationships that are developed through indulgent dependency. Relationships between companies can develop into a keiretsu—a network of interlocking corporate affiliates. Members of a keiretsu trade with each other and often engage in joint product development, finance, and marketing activity. Many American firms have found the best way to compete in Asian countries is to form relationships with Asian firms.

Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: Producers include profit-oriented organizations that use purchased goods and services to produce or incorporate into other products. Examples include construction, manufacturing, transportation, finance, real estate, and food service firms. The reseller market includes retail and wholesale businesses that buy finished goods to resell at a profit. Government organizations include thousands of federal, state, and local buying units. This may be the largest single market for goods and services in the world. The U.S. federal government, buying goods and services valued at over $600 billion a year, is the world’s largest customer. Institutions do not have the standard business goals of profit, market share, and return on investment. Includes schools, hospitals, colleges and universities, churches, labor unions, fraternal organizations, civic clubs, foundations, and other nonbusiness organizations. Discussion/Team Activity: Discuss the information provided on this Web site that helps organizations do business with the federal government.

Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: The information shown on this slide describes the usefulness of NAICS for marketers. For example, if a supplier understands the needs of a few firms within a classification, the needs can be projected to all firms in the category. This information can be converted into market potential, market share estimates, and sales forecasts. Discussion/Team Activity: Discuss how NAICS information can be used for other marketing applications.
Chapter 7 Business Marketing
Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: The basic marketing concepts are the same whether the customer is a business organization or a consumer. However, the characteristics of business markets and consumer markets are different.
Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: The main differences between business and consumer markets are summarized on this slide. The first characteristic demand is described on the next slide. Follow the hyperlink. Purchase volume: Business customers buy in larger quantities than consumers. Number of customers: Business marketers have fewer customers than consumer marketers. An advantage is that it is easier to identify buyers, monitor customer needs, and build personal relationships. A disadvantage is that each customer becomes crucial, especially for those manufacturers who have only one customer. Location of buyers: Business customers are more geographically concentrated than consumers. For example, many firms in the automobile manufacturing industry are clustered near Detroit. Distribution structure: Business products typically have shorter channels of distribution, and direct channels are common. On the other hand, consumer products pass through a distribution system that may include the producer, the wholesaler(s), and the retailers. Nature of buying: More people are involved in a business market purchase decision than in a consumer purchase. Representatives from quality control, marketing, finance, and purchasing may be grouped in a buying center. Type of negotiations: Consumers are used to negotiating price on items like real estate and automobiles, although in most cases, however, the sellers set the price and other conditions of sale. In contrast, negotiation is common in business marketing decisions and may take months to work out the final contracts. Use of reciprocity: Business purchasers often choose to buy from their own customers. It is not unethical or illegal unless the exchange is coerced. Use of leasing: Businesses commonly lease expensive equipment to reduce capital outflow, keep state of the art products, and gain tax advantages. Primary promotional method: Business marketers emphasize personal selling, especially for expensive, custom-designed products.
Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: Business demand is different from consumer demand in the following areas: The demand for business products is derived demand, meaning that organizations buy products to be used in producing customer products. As a result, business marketers must carefully monitor trends and patterns in final consumer markets as well as customers’ forecasts. Inelastic demand is demand without regard to price. An increase or decrease in the product price will not significantly affect the demand for the product. Joint demand occurs when multiple items are used together in a final product. Consequently, a demand change for one product will affect the other products as well. Fluctuating demand: The demand for business products tends to be more unstable than the demand for consumer products. A small increase or decrease in consumer demand can produce a much larger change in demand for the facilities and manufacturing equipment needed to make the consumer product. This is known as the multiplier effect. Discussion/Team Activity: 1. Discuss examples of products that describe each of the demand differences in business markets.

Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: Major equipment: capital goods such as large or expensive machines, airplanes, buildings. Depreciated over time, often custom-designed. Personal selling is an important marketing strategy. Accessory equipment: Less expensive and shorter-lived than major equipment, includes fax machines, personal computers, power tools. Often charged as an expense. Often standardized and purchased by more customers. Advertising is an important promotional tool. Raw materials: Unprocessed products, such as minerals, timber, wheat, corn, fish. Become part of finished products. Personal selling is the marketing mix component used, distribution channels usually direct from producer to business user. Component parts: Finished items ready for assembly or that need very little processing. Examples are tires and electric motors. Two important markets for component parts: original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and replacement market. Processed materials are used directly in manufacturing other products. Sheet metals, chemicals, and lumber. Do not retain their identity in final products. Price and service are important factors in choosing a supplier. Supplies are consumable items that do not become part of the final product. Short lived and inexpensive. Generally fall into categories of maintenance, repair, or operating supplies (MRO), and include such items as detergents, pencils, paper, etc. Business services are expense items that do not become part of the final product. This includes janitorial, advertising, legal, management consulting, marketing research, and maintenance services.

Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: Understanding how purchase decisions are made in organizations is a first step in developing a business selling strategy. Business buying behavior has five important aspects, as shown on this slide.
Chapter 7 Business Marketing
Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: Several people may play a role in the business purchase decision: Initiator: the person who suggests the purchase. Influencers: help define specifications and provide information for evaluating options. Gatekeepers: group members who regulate the flow of information, often the purchasing agent. Decider: the person with the power to choose or approve the selection. Purchaser: the person who negotiates the purchase. Users: members of the organization who actually use the product.
Chapter 7 Business Marketing Notes: Business buyers evaluate products and suppliers against the criteria of quality, service, and price—in that order. Quality refers to technical suitability. Quality improvement should be part of every organization’s marketing strategy. Service includes prepurchase as well as postpurchase service, along with dependability of supply. Services that help sell the finished products are especially appropriate when the seller’s product is an identifiable part of the end product. Business buyers want to buy at low prices. However a buyer who pressures a supplier to cut prices to the point of money loss may force shortcuts on quality. It may force the supplier to quit selling to him/her.
