What is Marketing?
“Marketing is Everything
You Do to Help Sell a
Product/Service”
“Marketing is Everything”
Marketing has become the dominant and
often most critical business function
Manufacturing techniques and resources
are now less critical, often easy to obtain
Brand equity and intellectual capital are
now more critical, harder to duplicate
Business is evolving from manufacture of
goods to manufacture of “thinking”
“The Five P’s”
1. Product
Product may be “tangible”
Packaged goods
Durable goods
Product may be a service
Product may be a combination
Products are “bundles of benefits”
2. Price
Key part of “value equation”
At the price, product must have some
measure of “functional superiority.”
Price must also contain margin
For funding of necessary activities...
and profit
Price can send additional signals
Can be a strategy in itself, or, more likely,
part of a strategy
3. Place (distribution)
Similar products can make different
“place” decisions
Example: Coffee
Folgers
3. Place
Similar products can make different
“place” decisions
Example: Coffee
Folgers
Gevalia

A range of marketing communications
(MarCom) techniques can be used:
Advertising
Sales Promotion
Public Relations
Publicity
Internet/New Media
Direct Sales
Direct Marketing
Event Marketing
Trade Shows

Products
5. People
Some controversy over the fifth P
Once, some said “packaging”
One consultant says “personalization”
Another says “playback”
We say it’s “People.”
Your customers
Your own people
Other “stakeholders”
Sales Force, Trade, Suppliers
The Marketing Mix
Demand
Example: Price/Supply

More fluid “ad hoc” structure
Organize around needs and functions
