Lecture 1 – Monday Feb 1 2020: Introduction to the course
What is Marketing?
- functions and processes/activities to deliver customer value
- a business philosophy → a way to approach the market
Marketing definitions AMA
Two main marketing decisions
- segmentation – understanding consumers
- value differentiation – creating customer value
The origins of current marketing thinking:
- these days quality is not the success/value driver in businesses anymore
- what makes a company successful? —> marketing (a way to approach the market in order to develop customer value
History of the business philosophy
- marketing first mentioned in the 1900s during production era and it referred to the transition to mass production and taking
produce to the market (getting produce from A to B in an efficient manner); everything related to logistics.
- As time went by, it started referred to selling rather than logistics, it started being all about what is better about a product,
driven by the context.
- 1980s we started thinking around, started listening to what the consumers want that they aren’t served with in order to be
better than the competitors, starting the concept of marketing
Marketing definitions:
1985 –> definition still about the distribution of goods, getting in more transaction and selling the product that you liked
(success more about market share)
2012 –> definition about bringing value to customer and creating a relationship (success more about the share of wallet, loyalty)
Context still changing, now there is a need to take the environment and the society in consideration.
Main marketing decisions:
- segmentation: understanding consumers
- value differentiation: creating customer value
