Marketing
Marketing may be defined as the social and managerial processes by which products, services, and value are exchanged in order to fulfill individuals' or groups' needs and wants. These processes include, but are not limited to, advertising, promotion, distribution, and product management.
Maps Outline of marketing
Core concepts in marketing
Marketers may sell goods or services directly to consumers, known as business to customer (B2C marketing); commercial organisations (known as business to business marketing or B2B), to government; to not-for-profit organisations (Not-for-profit orgnanization (NFP)) or some combination of any of these.
Actors and relationships
- The Consumer: At the centre of the marketing framework is the consumer.
- Typically, the consumer refers to the end-user - but this may be an individual or group such as a household, family unit or organisation.
- In addition, marketers may need to consider the roles of influencers such as Opinion leaders who increasingly use means such as social media to develop customer to customer networks of influence.
- Sales personnel: may go by various names including: Sales representative; Arabber; Bazaari; Costermonger; Hawker (trade); Huckster; Merchant; Peddler; Retailer; Street vendor or Vendor
- Selling situations & relationships: Depending on the nature of the business operations, many different types of actors are involved in a variety of selling situations involving a variety of sales personnel, who perform varied sales roles. Sales activities involve many different types of customer relationships - from simple transactional exchange through to long-term, enduring customer relationships.
Needs, wants and demand
Marketers typically begin planning with a detailed understanding of customer needs and wants.
- A need is something required for a healthy life (e.g. food, water, shelter).
- A want is a desire, wish or aspiration.
- When needs or wants are backed by purchasing power, they have the potential to become demands.
Nature of exchange
Exchange, the act of giving or taking one thing of value in return for another is central to marketing activities.
- Not all exchange involves Financial transactions, but may also involve barter, contra dealing or other form of trade.
Objects of exchange
The object of exchange can include: Goods; services or experiences; concepts or ideas; causes and may even involve celebrity marketing

Planning levels and planning tools
Planning levels
Marketing planning is just one facet of the overall company's planning. Marketing plans must therefore take their guidance from the overall strategic plan or business plan. Most companies produce both a strategic plan and a managerial plan (also known as an operational plan). The distinction between strategic planning and management planning is that they are two phases with different goals.
- Strategic planning is fundamentally concerned with the policies that will improve the firm's competitive position. Strategic planning is sometimes called higher-order planning and is usually long-term planning (say 3-7 years) while management planning is short-term and may be carried out for a specific program (e.g. a sales or advertising campaign of a few weeks duration) or carried out annually. Strategic plans typically include a statement of the firm's vision and mission. The Marketing strategy is a plan that shows how the firm's marketing activities will help to achieve the overall strategic goals.
- Marketing management is focused on developing the marketing program or Marketing mix (also known as the 4Ps) and is concerned with the implementation of specific action plans designed to achieve objective, measurable targets (SMART objectives). Marketing management plans are typically prepared on an annual planning cycle, but may be prepared for shorter periods for special events such as a product launch, a new logo, change to corporate livery or a repositioning campaign.

New product development (NPD)
Innovation and New product development are an important part of a firm's long term growth strategy.
The steps in a basic new production development process are:
- Idea generation (or Ideation (creative process)) ->Concept screening-> Concept testing -> Business analysis -> Product development -> Market testing -> Commercialization and may include a Soft launch
The NPD process can be applied to:
- Products: New product development; Design
- Services: Service innovation; Service design
- Environmental goods or services: Eco-innovation; Ecodesign; Lean product development
A recent trend in NPD is the use of participatory design, also known as co-design or co-operative design, which involves stakeholders such as employees or consumers in the design process.
Sources of new product ideas include: Research and development; Consumers or Users; distributors, suppliers or crowdsourcing.
Types of innovation
- Blue Ocean Strategy
- Disruptive innovation
NPD represents a high risk activity. It requires substantial investment and a list of product failures suggests that the probability of failure is relatively high.
