What is a Market?
• The set of actual and potential buyers of a product, service or
experience.
– Also seen traditionally as a marketplace where the business
transaction (or trade) is enacted between buyers and sellers. For
example:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
A bizarre
Flea market
Farmer’s market
Retail Store
Wholesale Outlet
Online Internet Store
Cell Phone’s digital radio waves
• In Marketing when we talk about potential markets we usually are
referring to a set of buyers.
• These people share a need or want that can be satisfied through
exchange relationships.

Needs vs. Wants and Buyer

– Physical:
• Food, clothing, shelter, safety.

• Belonging, affection.
– Individual:
• Learning, knowledge, self-expression.

Hiearchy of Needs

Needs vs. Wants and Buyer
Motivation - wants
• SO then, …what is a “WANT”?
1-13
Needs vs. Wants and Buyer
Motivation - Motivational Strength
• Biological vs. Learned Needs
(innate instinct vs. learned behaviour)
• Drive Theory
(achieving homeostasis by satiating tension
caused by the arousal of unpleasant states)
• Expectancy Theory
pulled by positive incentives (goals) rather
than pushed from within
1-14
Needs vs. Wants and Buyer
Motivation - Motivational Direction
• MOTIVES tend to be directional
• Needs vs. Wants
– Need = unsatisfied requirement (hunger)
– Want = the way a person satisfies a need which ultimately is
dependent on “their historical reality” (cheeseburger vs. trail
mix)
• Types of Needs
– Biogenic or psychogenic
• Motivational Conflicts

P for product = Deeper Analysis
• Products
– Anything that can be offered for:
•
•
•
acquisition,
attention,
use or consumption
That might satisfy a need or want.
• Services
– Activities or benefits offered.
– Essentially intangible.
– Do not result in ownership of anything.
• Experiences
– Create, stage and market brand experiences.
– Attending live theatre, music concert.
• Ideas
– Solutions, consultation, patents, innovations.
1-16
Marketing Myopia
• Sellers pay more attention to the specific
products they offer than to the benefits and
experiences produced by the products.
• They focus on the “wants” and lose sight of the
“needs.”
– The great railroads lost out to the exploding trucking
industry.
– They forgot that their business was solving
transportation problems, not running railroads.
1-17
Value and Satisfaction
• If the performance and the customer’s
experience is lower than expectations, then
customer satisfaction is low.
• If the performance and the customer’s
experience meets expectations, then the
customer is satisfied.
• If the performance and the customer’s
experience exceeds expectations, then the
customer is delighted.
– How can we do this?

Core Marketplace Concepts
• Customers have needs, wants and demands.
• Marketers offer products or services.
• Customers seek value and satisfaction from offers.
• Demands and offers result in transactions and
relationships.
• Markets are all potential customers with a similar
demand.
1-19
Customer-Driven Marketing
1. Divide markets into segments.
2. Choose the right segment to target.
3. Offer a unique value proposition.
4. Differentiate your offer from competitor offers.
5. Build customer value and satisfaction.
6. Nurture long-term customer relationships.

Segmentation and Targeting
• Segmentation divides the market into groups of
customers with varying needs and wants.
• Targeting selects the right segment to nurture.

Demand Management
• Marketing management seeks to control
demand.
– Increasing demand is the norm.
– Demarketing seeks to reduce demand in
certain circumstances.

Value Proposition
The set of benefits or values the company
promises to deliver to its target markets
to satisfy their needs.
1-23
Capturing Value In Return
• Customer lifetime value
• Share of customer
• Building Customer Equity
– The total combined customer lifetime value of all of the
company’s customers
– Combination of market share, share of customer and
lifetime customer value
– Often a more accurate measure of a company’s value than
sales or market share
