2 2 What is Marketing? Marketing is the delivery of customer satisfaction at a profit.

3 3 The Goal of Marketing is: To attract new customer by promising superior value, and to keep current customers by delivering satisfaction.

4 4 Marketing, more than any other business function, deals with customers. Creating customer value and satisfaction are at the very heart of modern marketing thinking and practice. Some people believe that only large business organizations operating in highly developed economies use marketing, but sound marketing is critical to the success of every organization – whether large or small, for profit or non – profit, domestic or global.

5 5 Marketing Defined Many people think of marketing only as selling and advertising. Selling and advertising are only the tip of the marketing ice-berg. Marketing is one of three key core functions that are central to all organizations. Marketers act as the customers voice within the firm and marketers are responsible for many more decisions than just advertising or sales: Analyse industries to identify emerging trends. Determine which national and international markets to enter or exit. Conduct research to understand consumer behavior. Design integrated marketing mixes – products, prices, channels of distribution, and promotion programs. Marketing is a social and managerial process by which individuals and groups obtain what they need and want through creating and exchanging products and value with others.

6 6 To explain marketing definition, we examine the following important terms : Needs, wants, and demands Products and services Value, satisfaction and quality Exchange, transactions, and relationships Markets

7 7 Needs, Wants, and Demands Needs: The most basic concept underlying marketing is that of human needs. Human needs are states of felt deprivation. Human have many complex needs: Physical needs for food, clothing, warmth, and safety Social needs or belonging and affection Individual needs for knowledge and self – expression Wants: Want are the form taken by human needs as they are shaped by culture and individual personality. People have almost unlimited wants but limited resources. They want to choose products that provide the most value and satisfaction for their money. Demands: When backed by buying power, wants become demands. Consumers view products as bundles of benefits and choose products that give them the best bundle for their money.

8 8 Products and Services Product: Anything that can be offered to a market to satisfy a need or want. The concept of product is not limited to physical objects – anything capable of satisfying a need can be called a product. Services: In addition to tangible goods, products also include services, which are activities or benefits offered for sale that are essentially intangible and do not result in the ownership of anything.

9 9 Values, Satisfaction, and Quality Values: Customer value is the difference between the values the customer gains from owning and using a product and the costs of obtaining the products. Customers often do not judge product value and costs accurately or objectively. They act on perceived value. Satisfaction: Customer satisfaction depends on a product s perceived performance in delivering value relative to a buyer s expectation. If the product s performance falls short of the customer s expectations, the buyer is dissatisfied. Quality: Customer satisfaction is closely linked to quality. Quality has a direct impact on product performance. Quality can be defined as freedom from defects. TQM programs designed to constantly improve the quality of products, services, and marketing processes.

10 10 Exchange, Transactions, and Relationships Exchange : The act of obtaining a desired object from someone by offering something in return Transaction : A trade between two parties that involves at least two things of value, agreed – upon conditions a time of agreement, and a place of agreement.
