wants and delivering the desired satisfactions better

• Societal concept: Marketing strategy should deliver

9. 3. Constructing an integrated marketing
plan that delivers superior value
• The company’s marketing strategy outlines
which customers the company will serve and
how it will create value. The marketer develops
integrated marketing plans that intended value
to target customers.
• It consists of the firm’s marketing mix (4Ps),
the set of marketing tools the firm uses to
implement its marketing strategy.

a firm that meets the needs of your target market.
• Price focuses on what customers are willing to pay for
a service.

services are distributed by a firm for use by consumers

marketplace that the organization has developed a

overall process of building and maintaining
profitable customer relationships by
delivering superior customer value and
satisfaction.The key to building lasting
relationships is the creation of superior
customer value and satisfaction.

12. 5. Capturing Value From Customers
• Customer relationship management’s ultimate
aim is to produce high Customer equity –
total combined lifetime values of all of the
company’s current and potential customers.
• In addition to being good at customer
relationship management, they also need to
be good at partner relationship management.

13. Final Words Managing Marketing
Process
• The last step of the marketing process is arranging
resources necessary to carry out the marketing plan,
putting the plan in action, and exerting control.
• For the implementation of the marketing plan, the
firm needs to build a marketing organization.
• This type of organization consists of many
specialists responsible for carrying out marketing
research, advertising, product development,
customer service, etc.

14. STRATEGIC MARKETING PROCESS
The strategic marketing process is a deliberate series of
steps to help you identify and reach your goals and discover
what your customers want and develop products that meet
those needs. .
• Mission
• Situation Analysis
• Marketing Strategy/Planning
• Marketing Mix
• Implementation and Control

15. 1. Mission
• First, identify and understand the company’s
mission. A mission statement explains why a
company is in business and how it can benefit
consumers.
• Sometimes, the mission statement is aspirational,
motivating staff and inspiring customers. Or it is
simply a straightforward statement about who you
are. Either way, you can’t plan a marketing strategy
without knowing clearly what business you are in

16. 2. Situation Analysis
The second step of the strategic marketing process is to
evaluate internal and external factors that affect your
business and market.
Situation analysis provides a clear, objective view of
the health of your business, your current and
prospective customers, industry trends, and your
company’s position in the market.A typical analysis is
called a SWOT analysis: strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities, and threats.

17. 3. Marketing Plan
Now that you’ve identified opportunities through
your analysis, you should prioritize and map out
which ones you are going to pursue. Writing a
marketing plan will specify your target customers
and how you will reach them, and should also
include a forecast of the anticipated results.

18. These questions can help:
• How will customers respond to your marketing
efforts?
• How much will the plan cost?
• How will your competition respond?
The data from your market research and
situation analysis will help you build these
projections into your plan.

19. 4. Developing Marketing Mix Decisions
At this stage of the strategic marketing process, it’s
time to focus on the “how” of planning.Your
marketing mix is based on the 4Ps of marketing,
including Product, Price, Promotion, and Place.
By using the market research conducted in step two,
you can develop the ideal marketing mix for your
target audience and the type of product or service
you sell.

20. 5. Implementation and Control
Now it’s time to put your plan into action.
Identify how and when you will launch
your plan. At this stage of the strategic
marketing process, you will reach out to
customers to inform and persuade them
about your product or service.

21. Your next steps include;
• getting the resources (cash and staffing) to
market your product
• organizing the people who will do the work
• creating calendars to keep the work on track
• and managing all the details for each goal.
Remember, the strategic marketing process is
dynamic. You need to regularly measure and
evaluate the results of your plan in order to
succeed.

22. A strategic plan identifies your business goals, the
marketplace in which you compete, your target
audience, the ways you want to reach them, and
how you will evaluate your success. It integrates
everything you say and do to grow your company. A
strategic marketing plan is not a static document
that gets tossed in a drawer once it’s written.
Instead, a plan is a living document that guides
your work and is regularly updated to reflect
changes in your business, your customers, and
your competition.
