(Carver 2009; 2012)
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
What is Marketing?*
1. “Marketing is the process of planning and executing the
conception, pricing, promotion, and distribution of ideas,
goods, and services to create the exchanges that satisfy
individual and organizational goals.” (1985 AMA Definition)
2. “Marketing is an organizational function and a set of
processes for creating, communicating, and delivering value
to customers and for managing customer relationships in
ways that benefit the organization and its stakeholders.” *(Lusch
and Marshall 2004 AMA Definition)
3. “Competition for a Differential Advantage.”* (Wroe Alderson 1957)
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Two Goals of Marketing
• Marketing has 2 basic goals:
1.
Attract new customers by providing superior
value
2.
Keep & grow existing customers by delivering
satisfaction
• Can do so iff one has a differential, or longterm competitive, advantage

Demands
Market Offerings
• Customers’ demands are fulfilled through
market offerings
Combination
•
Products; Services; Information; & Experiences
Market
•
•
of:
offering & “Product” (purchased)*
Can be tangible good or intangible service
“Service” are all services used to facilitate & support
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Market Offering
• Traditional “Product” View Has Pitfalls
Marketing
•
Myopia
Paying so much attention to the specific products a
company offers that benefits & experiences are
overlooked (e.g., Buggy-whip example)
• Service-Dominant Logic*
Products
are bundles of “services” or “brand
experiences”
Spoken in terms of a Value Proposition
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Value Proposition Examples
• Drill Bit Example:
•
What is really being sold?
• Toaster Example?
•
What is really being sold?
• Disney Example?
•
What is really being sold?
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Value Proposition Examples
• Drill Bit Example:
•
What is really being sold?
Ability to generate a particular sized hole (½” bit = ½” hole)
• Toaster Example?
•
What is really being sold?
A system for cooking one’s bread and making crispy
• Disney World Example?
•
What is really being sold?
A world of wonder where dreams come true, not just rides
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Exchange and Relationships
• Marketers make Value Propositions to
“Markets” with a goal of “Exchange” over
time
•
Market
•
The set of actual & potential consumers of a product based
upon some shared need or want
Exchange
Obtaining a desired object from someone by offering
something in return
•
•
Marketers obtain money by offering value propositions that meet or
exceed expectations
Relationships, not one-time exchanges, are key.
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University

That a customer orientation is accomplished through an
integrative effort throughout the firm
•
Customer orientation

CRM:
Customer Relationship Management
• Customer data management
Leveraging
detailed information & customer
“touchpoints” (interactions) to maximize loyalty.
Maximization
of customer delivered value through
the management of customers
•
•
•
Acquisition,
Retention, and
Growth
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Building Blocks of a
Relationship (Value)
• Value
Is
•
“customer perceived”
Largely idiosyncratic* but generalizable based on
“themes” (segmentation)
Drivers include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Convenience
“Total” cost
Selling Price
Authenticity
Exclusivity
Finishes
Conspicuousness (referent power)
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Building Blocks of a Relationship
(Customer Satisfaction)
• Satisfaction
The
difference between one’s perceived
performance (i.e., experience) & expectations
•
•
•
A “net loss” ~ dissatisfied
A “net neutral” ~ satisfied
A “net positive” ~ highly satisfied or “delighted”
Likely to become “customer evangelists”
“Indirect”
driver of firm performance (e.g., sales)
Yet, maximization is not the goal
•
Must know break-even point for all services provided*
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Consumer Spending and
“Lagged” Satisfaction (ACSI)*
Note the larger lag during & after the “Great Recession” – consumers must
also have funds available in order to purchase
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Appropriate Levels of
Customer Relationship
• “Closeness” is a function profitability
Considered
•
Low Margin customers
“Basic” relationship is best
•
•
“Full Partnership” is possible
•
Tools
•
Relationships only through websites, apps, advertising, etc.
High Margin customers
•
in terms of a continuum
Relationship with constant, personal communication; information
sharing, etc.
to enhance “bond” and profitability include:
Frequency marketing programs & Club Memberships
Goal is to enhance loyalty through switching costs
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Changing Nature
of Customer Relationships
• From “Mass Marketing” to “Selected”
Relationships
Customer
Profitability Analysis During…
Customer
Acquisition
No longer “Seining” for all fish in the sea
Surveys, Credit ratings, etc.
Customer
Retention
80/20 Rule*
Fire “Poor” or “High Maintenance” customers
“Segmentation for termination” purposes
Example: Sprint termination letter, gift cards to competitors, etc.
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Interactive Customer Relationships
• Fueled by technology and social media
•
No longer marketing by intrusion
•
Mass marketing is naturally intrusive and designed to
interrupt one’s attention
Marketing
•
by attraction
Marketing that includes consumers
Use of social media and technology isn’t enough
Co-creation is key
•
•
Gives up control, yet
Gains authenticity & engagement (part of the conversation)
A delicate balancing act to ensure hijacking is curtailed
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Partner Relationship Management
• Both Intra- and Inter-firm partners
•
Intra-firm partners
•
No longer is marketing the only function representing
the customer
Non-marketers performing marketing
Inter-firm
•
partners
Marketing messages must be managed throughout and
across the entire channel
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Capturing Value from Customers
• Value is captured from customers via…
Current
and future sales, market share, and profit.
• Key outcomes of customer value include…
Customer
•
loyalty & retention
5 times as much to get a “new” customer
Greater
share of “market” and “customer”, and
Growth
in customer equity
Dr. James Carver – Auburn University
Customer Equity
• The total combined customer lifetime values
(CLVs) of all the company’s current & future
customers
Customer
•
The value of the entire stream of purchases that the
customer would make over a lifetime of patronage
Consider the cost of losing just one customer
•
•
Lifetime Value
UPS example
Why customers must be managed based on profitability
Recall 80/20 rule
