Study Notes
The Market-Based Assets Theory of Brand Competition
- Kotler's Segmentation, Targeting, Positioning (STP) theory is still prevalent in marketing, but it doesn't entirely explain brand success.
- Empirical studies show brand market share is often stable despite marketing mix changes.
- Brand competition is more complex than solely optimizing the marketing mix.
Beginnings of Segmentation, Targeting, Positioning (STP) Theory
- The concept emerged in the 1950s.
- McCarthy's 4Ps (product, price, place, promotion) became a framework.
- The 4Ps extend the perfect competition model by adding demand drivers beyond price.
- Marketers use techniques like mix modeling and choice modeling to optimize marketing mixes.
- Despite efforts, predicting successful products/brands remains difficult.
Empirical Observations on Brand Competition
- Observation 1: Competing Brands Share Customers:
- The Duplication of Purchase Law states that brands share buyers.
- Customer cross-purchasing correlates with brand size.
- Smaller brands grow by attracting customers from larger competitors.
- Observation 2: Competing Brands Sell to Similar Customers:
- Buyers of competing brands have similar profiles (demographics, lifestyles).
- Segmentation strategies based on brand differences often don't apply.
- Observation 3: Competing Brands Are Weakly Differentiated:
- Few consumers perceive substantial differences between brands.
- Brand image data shows little distinction.
- Most customers do not associate brands with unique perceptions.
- Observation 4: Competing Brands Have Similar Satisfaction Scores:
- Customer satisfaction doesn't directly predict brand loyalty or size.
- Customer satisfaction ratings are not consistently repeatable over time.
- Observation 5: Competing Brands Have Predictable Loyalty:
- Buyer loyalty is reliably predictable from brand size.
- Double Jeopardy Law: Bigger brands have somewhat higher loyalty than smaller brands.
- Loyalty is not dependent on uniqueness, perceived value, or differentiated positioning.
Market-Based Asset Theory
- The theory states that accessible and perceived brands are driven by the size of their customer base.
- Key assets are mental & physical availability.
- Mental availability: brand's presence in consumers' considerations.
- Physical Availability: ease of purchase.
- Larger brands tend to have higher mental and physical availability.
Implications
- Targeting is not the sole key driver of brand growth.
- Instead, expanding the brand's customer base (mental and physical availability) is crucial.
Areas for future research
- Overlapping mental and physical availability.
- Measuring mental and physical availability.
- Forecasting investments for mental availability.
