From the managerial perspective; marketing (management) is

20. MARKETİNG MANAGEMENT
Marketing management ğ the art and science of choosing
target markets and building profitable relationships with them.
This definition must include answers to 2 questions:
What customers will we serve?
How can we serve these customers best?
Getting, keeping, and growing customers through creating,
delivering, and communicating superior customer value
Marketing management involves ğ managing demand ğ
involves managing customer relationships
21. MARKETİNG MANAGEMENT
Marketing management can be defined in broader terms as
“demand management”;
Marketers aim to influence the level, timing and composition of
demand to meet organizational goals.
Marketing management is concerned
not only with finding and increasing demand,
but also with changing or even reducing it : demarketing!
Demarketing’s aim is to reduce the number of customers or to
shift their demand temporarily or permanently
(e.g. move traffic away from a popular tourist attraction during peak demand
times)
22. EVOLUTİON OF MARKETİNG THOUGHT
How marketing has become
“marketing” as we understand it
and apply its practices today?
23. EVOLUTİON OF MARKETİNG THOUGHT
Production Era (1850s-1920s)
Industrial revolution; mass production
Few products and little competition
Sales Era (1920s-1950s)
The focus was on personal selling and advertising
Sales seen as the major means for increasing profits
Mktg Era (1950s-present)
Customer orientation replaced the “hard sell” of the sales-led era
Determination of the needs and wants of customers before introducing
products or services
24. EVOLUTİON OF MARKETİNG THOUGHT
Relationship Marketing Era: 1990s-
Marketing era has recently shifted from being “transaction-based”
ğ to focusing on “relationships”
The argument ğ traditional marketing practices focused on
attracting new customers rather than retaining existing ones.
It is equally important to hang on to existing customers so that
they become repeat buyers and long term loyal customers
“customer relationship management”!
25. COMPANY ORIENTATIONS TOWARDS THE
MARKETPLACE
Consumers prefer products that are
Production Concept
Production Concept widely available and inexpensive
Consumers favor products that
Product Concept
Product Concept offer the most quality, performance,
or innovative features
Consumers will buy products only if
Selling Concept
Selling Concept the company aggressively
promotes/sells these products
Focuses on needs/ wants of target
Marketing Concept
Marketing Concept markets & delivering value
better than competitors
26. PRODUCTİON CONCEPT
Consumers will favor those products that are widely
available and low in cost.
Managers concentrate on achieving high production
efficiency and wide distribution.
The assumption is valid at least in 2 situations :
The demand for a product exceeds supply (suppliers will
concentrate on finding ways to increase production)
The product’s cost is high and has to be decreased to expand
the market.
27. PRODUCT CONCEPT
Consumers will favor those products that offer the most
quality, performance or innovative features.
Managers in product-oriented organizations concentrate on
making superior products and improving them over time.
The assumption ğ the customers will admire well-made
products and can evaluate product quality and performance
This concept may lead to marketing myopia
28. SELLİNG CONCEPT
Agressiveselling and promotion
Assumptions are;
Consumers must be convinced of buying company products
Company is powerful in generating effective selling and
promotion to stimulate more buying
This concept is mostly used by firms which have
overcapacity.
The aim is “to sell what they make” rather than “make
what the market wants.”
Short-term profits are more important (customer
dissatisfaction may occur)
29. MARKETİNG CONCEPT
Key to achieving organizational goals consists of being
more effective than competitors in creating, delivering
and communicating customer value to target markets.

32. MARKETİNG CONCEPT (CONT.)
1) Target market ğ homogenous group of customers to
whom the company wishes to appeal

customer’s point of view
Sales revenue ğ New customers + Repeat customers
“Customer Retention” vs. “Customer Attraction”
Customer satisfaction is a function of the product perceived
performance and buyer’s expectations

packaging, sizes, services, warranties, returns

37. SELLING – MARKETİNG...
“There will always be need for
some selling. But the aim of marketing
is to make selling superfluous. The aim
of marketing is to know and understand
the customer so well that the product or
service fits him and sells itself. Ideally,
marketing should result in a customer
who is ready to buy.”
Peter Drucker

40. RELATİONSHİP MARKETİNG CONCEPT
Customer Relationship Management ğ the overall process
of building and maintaining profitable customer
relationships by delivering superior customer value and
satisfaction.
Itdeals with all aspects of acquiring, keeping and growing
customers
Relationship building blocks ğ “customer value” and
“customer satisfaction”
“Customer retention” and “customer loyalty”
The intention ğ to gain a greater proportion of an existing
customer’s purchases over a long period (increase “consumer
lifetime value”!)
41. RELATİONSHİP MARKETİNG CONCEPT
“Our slogan ‘5+Million More Smiling Customers’ is not
about reaching sales targets but about whether we are able
to provide greater satisfaction to a greater number of
customers...
The goal is to improve customer satisfaction which
translates to an increased number of ‘smiling customers.”
Tokuichi Uranishi
Executive Vice President,
Toyota Motor Corporation
42. CONNECTIONS WITH CUSTOMERS –
NOT ALL CUSTOMERS ARE EQUAL
• Most marketers are targeting fewer, potentially more
profitable customers.
• Asking:
▫ What value does the customer bring to the organization?
▫ Are they worth pursuing? – customer profitability analysis
• Focus has shifted to:
▫ keeping current customers, and
▫ building lasting relationships based on superior satisfaction
and value.
It costs 5 to 10 times as much to attract a new customer as it does
to keep a current customer satisfied.

67. MARKET POSITIONING
Positioning is defined as the process of designing the
company’s products and image to occupy a unique place in the
target market’s mind.
Many marketers favor promoting only one major benefit and
Rosser Reeves called it as “a unique selling proposition”. Some
unique selling propositions (USPs) companies use are best
quality, best service, lowest price, best value, safest, more
advanced technology, etc.
67
68. THE FOUR MAJOR POSITIONING ERRORS
• Under positioning: Some companies find that buyers have
only an unclear idea of the brand.
• Over positioning: Buyers have very narrow image of the
brand.
• Confused positioning: Buyers have confused image of the
brand because the company has made too many claims or
changed the brand positioning too frequently.
• Doubtful positioning: Buyers do not easily believe the
claims made by brands about the product’s features, price or
manufacturer.
68
69. BASES OF POSITIONING THE
PRODUCT
1. Attribute positioning: The company positions itself on the basis
of attribute like size or number of years in existence. Sunfeast
positions its snacky brand as bigger, lighter and cheaper.
2. Benefit positioning: The company positions its product as leader
in providing a certain benefit. For example Santro positioned itself
as India’s simplest car to drive.
3. Use or application positioning: The company positions its
products as best for certain use or application. For example,
Kenstar positioned its products as unexpectedly cold.
4. User positioning: The company positions its product as best for
some user group. For example, Parle-G positions the boy in the
advertisement as rock star targeting the kids and boys.
69
70. BASES OF POSITIONING THE PRODUCT
5. Competitor positioning: The company claims its products as
better than a named competitor.
6. Product category positioning: The company positions its
product as leader in certain product category. For example, Bajaj
CT 100 was positioned as leader in the entry segment bikes.
7. Quality or price positioning: The product is positioned as
offering the best value. For example, the vegetable oil brand Dhara
positions itself as ‘anokhi shuddata, anokha asar’. This means the
company offers unique purity and unique effect.
