Goods, Services and Events
•
•
The overall goal of marketing is to distribute and
promote goods, services and/or events to those who
want them
o Good: items of merchandise, finished products, supplies or raw
materials
o Service: work done for others as an occupation or a business
o Event: a significant occurrence, or happening
Two categories of goods and services:
o Consumer example is Iphone
o Industrial example is Blackberry
•
Consumer Goods:
o Intended for personal use by the general public
(ipods, cell phones, PS3s, etc)
o Industrial Goods: Products used in business to make
other products or assist in business operation
• Raw Materials: unfinished goods used in the
manufacturing of a product à paper + ink = a
newspaper
• Processed Goods: semi-finished or a finished good,
most raw materials need processing before they can
be used (ie: milk, trees to lumber, apples to juice)
Marketing Activities
• Product Development : is a marketing
strategy of selling new products to existing
markets. For example, Coke sells new line
of chai tea in Canadian market.
• Pricing: There are many pricing
strategies that marketers use to sell their
products. For example, Penetration
pricing is used by laptops and TVs.
Marketing Activities
• Sales – For example, you can use sales
employees to do door to door or tele
marketing etc.
• Inventory Management: Too little
inventory can result in poor service or loss
of sales or brand-swithing. Too much
inventory can result in higher costs and
lower profit.
Marketing Activities
• Storage : This is where you keep your
inventory. There are two types of storage:
• Storage warehouse: the goods are intended to
come to rest for some period of time
• Distribution centre: are designed to facilitate
the timely movement of goods. They are used
to facilitate sorting and consolidating
products from different plants.
