What is Marketing?
What is Marketing?
• Your e-book by Pride and Ferrell gave a
fantastic definition. It states, “Marketing is
the process of creating, distributing,
promoting, and pricing goods, services, and
ideas to facilitate satisfying exchanges with
customers and develop and maintain
favorable relationships with stakeholders in a
dynamic environment.”
The Marketing Mix and Environment
Summary – the Marketing Mix
The Marketer’s tool box – the Marketing Mix
• The product – anything that is offered to consumers for
their satisfaction
• The price – what consumers give up for the product
• The place – where, when and how consumers access
and possess the product
• Promotion- communication between the provider of the
product and the consumer
Marketing Mix or The Four P’s
• Term used throughout the course. How products are differentiated.
• Four components- Product, Price, Promotion and Place
(Distribution). What do each of these mean?
• Marketing Managers create and control the right mix of these
elements to create value and satisfy customer’s needs for a
general product type.
• They are synergistic and rely on one another for marketing success
• Example: A company could have the best product in the world,
great price s and promotion. Without good distribution, it may fail.
• Figure 2.4 in text shows the importance of the marketing mix as an
integral part of developing marketing strategy. (Kotler, 2010)
Relationships
What is Marketing?
• Kotler: “Marketing is the process by which companies create value for
customers and build strong customer relationships in order to capture
value from customers in return.” (Kotler, 2010)
• Notice that there is a lot of emphasis on establishing value and
relationships.
• Marketing, more than any other business function deals with the
customer and creating value for them.
• Notice that there is a lot of emphasis on establishing value and
relationships.
• Things that are marketed- Goods, services, ideas, personal images
