Marketing: Needs, Wants, and Demands
- Marketing is a social and managerial process by which individuals and groups obtain their needs and wants through creating and exchanging products and value with others.
- Needs are states of deprivation—physical (food, clothing, warmth), social (belonging, affection), and individual (knowledge, self-expression).
- Wants take the form that needs take, shaped by culture and individual personality.
- Demands are wants backed by buying power.

Goods, Services, and Experiences

- Creating value is key.
Value, Satisfaction, and Loyalty
- Companies use value propositions to respond to customer demands.
- Consumers choose among market offerings based on expectations of value and satisfaction.
Exchanges, Transactions, and Relations
- Exchange is obtaining a desired object by offering something in return.
- Conditions for exchange include at least two parties, each with something of value, willingness to deal, and the ability to accept or reject offers.
- Exchange happens when both parties agree.
- Marketing theory explores why people and organizations engage in exchanges and how exchanges are created, resolved, or avoided.
- Different types of exchanges exist (e.g., lucrative, non-lucrative, restricted, and generalized).
Customer Engagement Marketing
