Urban Innovation21 Small Business Grant Competition Marketing Strategy Homewood Marketing Marketing is the process of communicating the value of a product or service to customers, for the purpose of selling that product or service. There are four components to a Marketing Strategy, they are: • Product or Service, what you are selling; • Place, the people who will buy your product or service, otherwise known as the Market; • Price, the amount customers are willing to pay for your product or service; • Promotions, how you reach and communicate with your customers, TV, Radio, Internet Marketing, etc. Product Your product or service offers a solution or value proposition. For example, you don't buy a drill because of its color. You purchase a drill based on its ability to make the kind of hole you need. You are buying a solution to make a hole. What solution does your business offer it's customers? Place Place is also known as the Market, or your customers for example; certain businesses appeal to women only, some businesses appeal to young women only, some businesses may appeal only to young African American women. Who is your market or what are your market segments? Price Price is what your product or service is worth to your customers. Customers determine the market value of your product or service. Are they willing to pay $5 for a cup of coffee? Or is the price point $1.50. The price point of your product is determine by your competition and customers preferences. Promotion Promotion is the message and the means you use to reach your customers. Are you going to use a billboard? Or a mobile phone app? What works best for your type of market?
