    Study Notes

    Introduction to Remix

    • The digital world is changing the marketing mix
    • The 7 Ps of the classic marketing mix are: Product, Price, Place, Promotion, People, Processes, and Physical Evidence.
    • Partnerships are not typically included in the classic marketing mix but are increasingly important in a digital environment.
    • Customers are looking for products and services that meet their needs, are available when they need them, and at a price that is fair.
    • Brands are the most valuable asset online.

    What is the Marketing Mix?

    • The Marketing Mix is a set of controllable, tactical marketing tools used to produce the response it wants in the target market.
    • The 8 Ps of the Digital Marketing Mix are: Product, Price, Place, Promotion, People, Processes, Physical Evidence, and Partnerships.

    Beyond the Mix

    • Marketing strategy determines target markets and required brand positioning.
    • Marketing Opportunity Analysis (MOA) involves describing and estimating the size and sales potential of market segments of interest to the firm and assessing key competitors in these market segments.
    • Positioning is the place a product, brand, or group of products occupies in consumers' minds relative to competing products.
    • Developing a specific marketing mix to influence potential customers' overall perception of a brand, product line, or organization in general is called positioning.
    • Effective positioning requires assessing the positions occupied by competing products, determining the important dimensions underlying these positions, and choosing a position in the market where the marketing efforts will have the greatest impact.

    The Mix is Morphing

    • Social media has changed the way brands interact with customers.
    • Widgets are mini-apps that can be added to mobile devices as a way to access information from apps without having to open the app itself.
    • Widgets can be used to personalize home pages with content from brands that individuals like.

    Place: Localization

    • Localization is the tailoring of website information for individual countries or regions.
    • Localization can include simple translation, but also cultural adaptation.
    • Websites may need to support customers from a range of countries with:
      • different product needs
      • language differences
      • cultural adaptation

    Promotion

    • Marketers need to choose which promotional tools are the most cost-effective techniques for acquiring and retaining target customers.
    • While online communications opportunities are infinite, resources needed to maintain content marketing, service interactions, and the database are not infinite.
    • All communications (online and offline) must be integrated, supporting the overall positioning and value proposition that the digital marketing strategy derives.
    • Caution is required when entering international markets.

    People, Processes, Physical Evidence, and Partnerships

    • These elements are closely related and often grouped as 'the service elements.'
    • They are significant because they impact a customer's loyalty and the probability of their recommending the service.
    • Organizations must devise plans to accommodate the five stages of managing service and quality:
      • Stage 1: Customer defines support query
      • Stage 2: Customer finds support option
      • Stage 3: Customer contacts support
      • Stage 4: Customer receives support
      • Stage 5: Customer evaluates support

    People

    • Employees are ambassadors for the brand.
    • Excellent service is required for repeated business.
    • Contact strategies should be developed that give customers a choice of contact, but minimize costly interactions with staff.
    • Customer service is a delicate balancing act that requires a mix of both automation and people.
    • Recruitment, training, motivation, and communication are required constantly.

    Partnerships

    • Partnerships can help expand a business by leveraging the experience, resources, and image of another organization.
    • GoPro and Red Bull have a partnership where GoPro equips athletes with cameras and Red Bull uses its experience and reputation to run and sponsor events.
    • Nike and Apple have a partnership where Nike provides fitness trackers and sneakers, and Apple provides music.

    Chapter Summary

    • Re-examining the marketing mix for the digital world:
      • Product: can be extended online through new information-based services and interaction with the brand.
      • Price: reduction in market prices and changes in purchase, distribution, and usage of products affect price.
      • Place and Promotion: Online options are plenty but also expensive.
      • People: Service quality is a key differentiator online and offline.
      • Physical evidence: A well-designed site, physical cues.
      • Process: Internal and external systems.
      • Partnerships: Can help expand a business.
