    Study Notes

    B2B Marketing Strategies

    • Influencing Consumer Preferences: Companies like Intel try to influence consumer behavior to indirectly boost demand for their products. They might use slogans like "Intel Inside" to make consumers prefer products with their components.
    • Price Negotiation: In B2B markets, prices are often negotiated between buyers and sellers. This can include trade or quantity discounts, which is less common in consumer markets.
    • Indirect Targeting: Businesses like publishers might offer deals or promotions to end buyers, but their primary focus remains on the key decision-makers. For example, a publisher might offer deals to students or bookstore managers while primarily focusing on reaching professors.
    • Multiple Segmentation Bases: Companies often use various criteria like demographics, psychographics, and behavior to understand their customers better and create value.
    • Segmentation Process: The process begins by understanding customer needs and identifying features that group similar customers into segments. A single market may have multiple segments.
