Study Notes
Marketing Process
- The marketing process is a series of steps that companies take to identify customer needs, create value, and build strong and long customer relationships.
- The process starts with conducting surveys and observations to gather market insights and define the target market and its preferences.
Understanding the Market and Customer Needs
- Companies need to understand customer needs, wants, and market offerings to create value for customers.
- Market myopia refers to the narrow-minded approach of companies becoming too focused on their products rather than seeing the broader perspective of what customers need and want.
- Demand is backed by the purchasing power to buy what is wanted or needed.
Exchange and Relationships
- Exchange and relationship-building typically occur across various customer touchpoints, both online and offline.
- Pricing products competitively and engaging with customers through marketing campaigns, social media, and community events can help build a great relationship.
- Implementing loyalty programs or promotions can foster long-term relationships by rewarding repeat purchases.
Markets
- Markets refer to the groups of actual and potential customers who have a particular need or want that can be satisfied through exchange relationships.
- Markets are not just physical spaces; they represent the environment in which businesses operate, including customer demographics, behaviors, competitors, and cultural trends.
- Marketers are no longer asking only “How can we influence our customers?” but also “How can our customers influence us?” and even “How can our customers influence each other?”
Designing a Customer Value-Driven Marketing Strategy
- A customer value-driven marketing strategy is based on understanding customer needs, wants, and market offerings.
- The strategy involves identifying a target market and creating a value proposition that meets customer needs.
- Value proposition is a statement of the unique benefits or values a company promises to deliver to meet customer needs.
- Examples of value propositions include JetBlue’s “you above all” and Spirit Airlines’ “less money more go”.
