for a specific goal.

Not-for-profit organizations, such as
housing or child care cooperatives also do
not seek profit. Extra funds are used to
improve services offered to members

have the means to purchase it
Includes current and future
potential consumers
Consumer and Competitive
Markets
Competitive Market: Comprises of
all of the products or services
(within a specific category) that
competes for the consumers money

Market: All marketing efforts
directed at a specific group of
consumers that the marketer wants
to attract (and ultimately sell their
product or service to)
 If
the market is everybody, then it is
called the Aggregate Market
Consumer and Competitive
Markets

Markets: These
markets are characterized in a
specific way such as age, income,
gender, personal values and/or
geographical location

Brand Strategies
Primary goal is to communicate value of the
good/service to the customer
Brand strategies develop and communicate the
benefits associated with the brand
Brand strategies minimize costs and encourage
the customer to set up a positive value
equation
Brand strategy attempts to POSITION the
product or service (which means marketers try
to create a value equation for the product in the
consumers mind)
Marketing Strategies
How do we define value?



Value is the difference between the perceived
cost of the product and the perceived
satisfaction derived from the product
Costs are monetary but can expressed in terms
of time spent looking for the product, energy
spent setting it up, personal costs (prestige,
status, reputation, etc)
To establish the value equation, the brand uses
packaging, brand names, slogans, and
trademarks to develop a positive and and
identifiable image for each product or service
Marketing Strategies
Value Equation: fig. 1.21 (next slide)
Trip to Barbados example
 Adds
together all of the benefits of a
product (both real and imagined)
and subtracts the costs in obtaining
the product



Push Strategy
Push the product or service to the
customer
Push strategy sells the product to
retailers, wholesalers or importers and
not directly to the end consumer
Reason: if the product is out there where
consumers can see it, they will buy it.

Pull Strategy
Pull or attract the consumer to the product or
service
This is what most people think of when they
think of marketing
Attempts to increase the consumer demand
directly instead of relying on retailers to sell the
product to consumers
Manufacturers and importers try to convince
consumers that they need the product and
should look for the product when they are
shopping

Combination of Push and Pull
Use combination push and pull
Pull strategy is difficult to use alone as it
requires distribution partners
Push strategy needs no partners,
requires consumer awareness
The push strategy needs to combine with
the pull strategy to optimize
effectiveness; however, the push
strategy can stand alone
