Three Policy Choices
Expand sales into new categories of
customers
Increase penetration into existing
market segments
Hold present market share by
concentrating on product design and
manufacturing innovations; no
marketing innovations
Expand Sales to New
Categories
May be a good approach depending on
the situation
Research and cost/benefit analysis will
determine if this is a good choice
“what to do” and “how to do” plans
must be developed
A firm may:
Expand geographically
Develop additional related products or
models within product line to enter new
market area
Develop new products unrelated to its
present line
Develop customized products
Increased penetration
Most difficult marketing task
Product/Brand differences are small or
non-existent
Major way to sell more
products/services is to take customers
away from existing competitors
Increased penetration
accomplished by:
Superior marketing efforts
Promotional techniques to drown out
competitors’ advertising
Total market can be expanded
Pricing/Service mix to give a
competitive advantage
Non-Marketing Innovations
Adopt current marketing practices
Works well with small firms where their
core competency is in another area.
Rather than wasting money developing
new marketing strategies, the firm will
concentrate on quality and service
What To Consider When
Determining A Marketing Mix
Do all activities share the same goals
and objectives?
Can additional costs in individual
divisions be justified?
Budgets and schedules should be
formally prepared on a regular basis
Marketing Pitfalls
Sales grow at a rate where
manufacturing can not keep up
Focus too much on large customers
may fall into the trap of maintaining a large
number of unprofitable small customers
80/20 Rule
Not enough research
Demand
Elastic is when the customers are price
sensitive. Increased prices may lower
sales and therefore, lower total
revenue.
With inelastic demand, customers will
generally purchase the product
regardless of the price (food, gas, etc)
