A more general definition can be applied to all of the areas of application: generic marketing

• The process by which the stakeholders - those who supply and those who demand - get what they want

through an act of exchange where a value is expressed• This is not necessarily a monetary value• The concept of exchange is central to this definition

Limitations to the traditional definition of marketing

• The constraint of the customer as king,• The need/product relationship may be interactive• Requirements expressed in anticipation of latent needs

• The question of innovations

Ethical limitations

• In the implementation of the marketing strategy

• For example, the abuse of documents

• In the design of the product offer• Inducement toward impulse buying• Positioning on suggestive topics• “Opportunistic” product without added quality

For example…• products presented in a circular at an attractive price for

a period of a week, which rapidly become unavailable for sale;

• an offer of free credit whereas the consumer is locked into revolving credit;

What arbiter(s) should one use?

•The consumer,•The marketing manager

•Value creation,

The value associated with the offer:• From marketing focused on the consumer and on

personal satisfaction• To marketing aiming simultaneously to provide personal

satisfaction by way of an appropriate solution for the entire company

• The mission of the brand: to chart the way
