INTRODUCTION TO MARKETING MANAGEMENT
Mrs. Priyanks SoniSigma Institute of Engineering.
MARKET. “A market consists of all the potential
customers sharing a particular need or want who might be willing and able to engage in exchange to satisfy that need or want” - (Philip Kotler).
It refers to a group of sellers and buyers that co-operate to exchange goods and services.
WHAT IS MARKETING?Simple definition: Marketing is the management process
responsible for identifying, anticipating, and satisfying customer requirements profitably.”
Goals: 1. Attract new customers by promising
superior value. 2. Keep and grow current customers by
delivering satisfaction.
INTRODUCTION CONTD.
Marketing came into existence with the first barter exchange (e.g. the barter trade in ancient Egypt, Songhai and Ghana empires in Africa etc.) when someone realized that exchanges add value for both parties.
This was the first real step forward in economic development.
INTRODUCTION CONTD.According to Peter Drucker, the first
test of any business is not the maximization of profit but the achievement of sufficient profit to cover the risks of economic activity and thus avoid loss.
Customers are the foundation of a business and their purpose of existence.
In other words, customers are the foundation of the business.
INTRODUCTION CONTD. As Peter Drucker puts it: There is only one
valid definition of business purpose: to create a customer.
It is the customer who determines what business is…
What the business thinks it produces is not of first importance, especially not to the future of the business and to its success in the market place.
The customer determines what a business is, what it produces and whether it will prosper (Drucker).

INTRODUCTION TO MARKETING CONCEPTS
Six orientations (philosophical concepts to the marketplace have guided and continue to guide organizational activities:
1. The Production Concept 2. The Product Concept 3. The Selling Concept 4. The Marketing Concept 5. The Societal Marketing concept 6. The holistic concept
PRODUCTION CONCEPT
Consumers will favor those products that are widely available and low in cost.
Therefore increase production and cut down costs.
And build profit through volume.
Managers focusing on this concept
concentrate on achieving high production efficiency, low costs, and mass distribution.
THE PRODUCTION CONCEPT
A customer can have any colour he likes for his car so long as it's black’
Henry Ford
PRODUCT CONCEPT
Consumers will favor those products that offer the most quality, performance, or innovative features.
Therefore, improve quality, performance and features. This would lead to increased sales and profits.
Managers focusing on this concept concentrate on making superior products and improving them over time.
They assume that buyers admire well-made products and can appraise quality and performance.
However, these managers are sometimes caught up in a love affair with their product and do not realize what the market needs.
THE SELLING CONCEPT
Consumers, if left alone, will not buy enough of company’s products.
Therefore, promote sales aggressively.
Build profit through quick turnover.
This is another common business orientation. The organization must, therefore, undertake an
aggressive selling and promotion effort. It also assumes that the company has a whole battery of
effective selling and promotional tools to stimulate more buying.
Most firms practice the selling concept when they have overcapacity.
Their aim is to sell what they make rather than make what the market wants.
THE MARKETING CONCEPT
Build profit through customer satisfaction and loyalty. This is a business philosophy that challenges the
above three business orientations.
It holds that the key to achieving its organizational goals (goals of the selling company) consists of the company being more effective than competitors in creating, delivering, and communicating customer value to its selected target customers.
The marketing concept rests on four pillars: target market, customer needs, integrated marketing and profitability.
THE SOCIETAL MARKETING CONCEPT
The societal marketing concept holds that the organization’s task is to determine the needs, wants, and interests of target markets and to deliver the desired satisfactions more effectively and efficiently than competitors in a way that preserves or enhances the consumer’s and the society’s well being. - It addresses conflicts between consumer’s and firm’s short run wants and long term welfare.
Additionally, it holds that this all must be done in a way that preserves or enhances the consumer’s and the society’s well-being.
This orientation arose as some questioned whether the Marketing Concept is an appropriate philosophy in an age of environmental deterioration, resource shortages, explosive population growth, world hunger and poverty, and neglected social services.
Are companies that do an excellent job of satisfying consumer wants necessarily acting in the best long-run interests of consumers and society?
The marketing concept possibly sidesteps the potential conflicts among consumer wants, consumer interests, and long-run societal welfare. Just consider:
The fast-food hamburger industry offers tasty unhealthy food. The hamburgers have a high fat content, and the restaurants promote fries and pies, two products high in starch and fat. The products are wrapped in convenient packaging, which leads to much waste. In satisfying consumer wants, these restaurants may be hurting consumer health and causing environmental problems.
THE HOLISTIC (UNIVERSAL) MARKETING CONCEPT
It is based on the development, design and implementation of marketing programmes, processes and activities that recognizes their coverage and interdependencies.
Companies who adopt this new marketing model are not only generally more profitable, but they subscribe to a triple bottom line objective of profit, people and planet as opposed to a pure profit maximization strategy that typically only serves to benefit shareholders.
Businesses no longer exist in a emptiness / alone / isolated but within a multi-dimensional, global, interconnected landscape.
The holistic marketing concept is a relatively new marketing perspective that takes into account the entire organization in addition to its counterparts when determining or executing its overall marketing strategy.
Holistic marketing recognizes that there are many stakeholders involved in each transaction—from suppliers, to employees, customers, shareholders, the community at large, and the environment
