products, services and experiences

relationships• Markets

Marketing occurs when people decide to satisfy needs and wants through exchange relationships. Exchange is the act of obtaining a desired object from someone by offering something in returnMarketing consists of actions taken to build and maintain desirable exchange relationships with target audiences involving a product, service, idea, or other object. The goal is to retain customers and grow their business with the company. One exchange is not the goal, relationships with several exchanges are the goal.Marketers want to build strong relationships by consistently delivering superior customer value.

Designing a Customer-Driven Marketing Strategy

• Once it fully understands consumers and the marketplace, marketing management can design a customer-driven marketing strategy.

• Marketing management is the art and science of choosing target markets and building profitable relationships with them.

This definition must include answers to two questions:What customers will we serve? (What’s out target market?)How can we serve these customers best? (What’s our value proposition?)

Selecting Customers and Creating Value

• Customer Management What customers will we serve? It does this by dividing the market into segments of customers and selecting which segments it will go after (target marketing). Marketers select customers that can be served profitably

• Value PropositionHow can we serve these customers best? How the company will differentiate and position itself in the marketplace.A company’s value proposition is the set of benefits or values a company promises to deliver to consumers to satisfy their needs.

Marketing Management OrientationsMarketing management wants to design strategies that will build profitable relationships with target consumers. But what philosophy should guide these marketing strategies? There are five alternative concepts under which organizations design and carry out their marketing strategies: the production, product, selling, marketing, and societal marketing concepts.

Goal 3: Identify elements of a customer-driven strategy.

MAR-101 Yiannos Rossides11

Marketing Management Orientations

A. Production conceptThe idea that consumers will favor products

that are available and highly affordable. This is one of the oldest orientations that guides sellers.

B. Product conceptThe idea that consumers will favor products

that offer the most in quality, performance, and features and that the organization should therefore devote its energy to making continuous product improvements.

C. Selling conceptThe idea that consumers will not buy enough of the firm’s products unless it undertakes a large-scale selling and promotion effort.

D. Marketing conceptThe marketing management philosophy that holds that achieving organizational goals depends on knowing the needs and wants of target markets and delivering the desired satisfactions better than competitors do. Under this, customer focus and value are the paths to sales and profits.

•• Societal marketing conceptIt questions whether the pure marketing conceptoverlooks possible conflicts between consumer short-run wants and consumer long-run welfare. The societal marketing concept holds that a company should make good marketing decisions by considering consumers’ wants, the company’s requirements, consumers’ long-run interests, and society’s long run interests.

• The major marketing mix tools are classified into four broad groups, called the 4P’s of marketing:

Relationship building blocks: Customer value and

Satisfaction• The key to building lasting customer relationships is to

create superior customer value and satisfaction. Satisfied customers are more likely to be loyal customers and to give the company a larger share of their business.

• Customer Perceived ValueA customer buys from the firm that offers the highest customer perceived value– the customer’s evaluation of the difference between all the benefits and all the costs of a marketing offer relative to those of competing offers.Customers often do not judge values and costs accurately or objectively. They act on perceived value.

• Customer SatisfactionCustomer satisfaction depends on the product’s perceived performance relative to a buyer’s expectations. If the product’s performance falls short of expectations, the customer is dissatisfied. If P=E, the customer is satisfied and if P>E, the customer is highly satisfied or delighted.

Goal 4: Discuss CRM and capturing value.

Not All Customers are Equal

• Companies can build customer relationships at many levels, depending on the nature of the target market.

• Basic Relationships: At one extreme, a company with many low-margin customersmay seek to develop basic relationships with them. For example, P&G does not phone or call on all of its Tide customers to get to know them personally. Instead, P&G creates relationships through brand-building advertising, sales promotions, a toll free customer response number, etc.

• Full Partnerships: At the other extreme, in markets with few customers and high margins, sellers want to create full partnerships with key customers. For example, P&G customer teams work closely with Wal-Mart, and other large retailers.

• Selective relationship management: Today’s companies are building more direct and lasting relationships with more carefully selected customers.

Today, most marketers realize that they don’t want relationships with every customer. Instead, companies now are targeting fewer, more profitable customers.At the same time that companies are finding new ways to deliver more value to customers, they are also beginning to assess carefully the value of customers to the firm. Called, selective relationship management, many companies now use customer profitability analysis to weed out losing customers and target winning ones for pampering. Once they identify profitable customers, firms can create attractive offers and special handling to capture these customers and earn their loyalty.

Capturing Value from Customers

• Customer Loyalty and Retention

• Share of Customer

• Customer Equity

• Customer delight leads to emotional relationships and loyalty. Delighted customers remain loyal and talk favorably to others about the company and its products.

• Customer Lifetime Value shows the value of the entire stream of purchases that the customer would make over a lifetime of patronage. It shows the true worth of a customer. Companies realize that losing a customer means losing more than a single sale. It means losing the entire stream of purchases that the customer would make over a lifetime of patronage.

Key ConceptsKey Concepts

Goal 4: Discuss CRM and capturing value.

The first four steps in the marketing process involve building customer relationships by creating and delivering superior customer value. The final step involves capturing value in return, in the form of current and future sales, market share, and profits. By creating superior customer value, the firm creates highly satisfied customers who stay loyal and buy more.

Capturing Value from Customers

• Share of Customer• Customer Equity

• Good CRM can help marketers to increase their share of customer – the share they get of the customer’s purchases in their product category.

• Achieved through offering greater variety, cross-sell(Amazon: books, music, videos, etc) and up-sell (Amazon: sends recommendations for books, CDs, videos, etc) strategies.

Capturing Value from Customers

• Customer Loyalty and Retention• Share of Customer• Customer Equity

• The ultimate aim of CRM is to produce high customer equity . Customer equity is the combined discounted customer lifetime values of all of the company’s current and potential customers.

• The more loyal the firm’s profitable customers, the higher the firm’s customer equity.
