Lecture 1: Overview of E-Marketing
Key issues in marketing:
1. What can sellers do to make themselves stand out among buyers in an increasingly
crowded marketplace
2. How can sellers use digital technology to make themselves stand out among buyers
in an increasingly crowded marketplace
What is changing in marketing:
Digital tools are shifting the balance of power from firms to customers
The enactment of the Ps of marketing is getting digitalised and democratised
Firms are losing control (occasionally, giving up control) over the marketing mix
Customers can now dictate what firms actually do (e.g. my Starbucks idea website or
Next Loves to listen)
Firms are voluntarily giving up control in the different elements of the marketing mix
What is E Marketing:
Just because you have the option of digital marketing doesn’t mean you have to or
should use it. The key is to identify, anticipate and satisfy customer requirements
profitability using technology
There is a need to integrate online and offline experiences of customers (multi-
channel marketing vs omnichannel marketing)
o Multi-channel is simply marketing using multiple channels
o Omni channel means you are using multiple channels in a way that
customers get a seamless and holistic experience. (coherent experience)
So for example the branding In the stores has to be same as online (integrated)
Case Study:
Tesco entered Korean market by changing name to Home plus
Biggest competitor was e-mart, they mad more stores than home plus
There challenge was to become number 1 without increasing number of stores
For Koreans going food shopping is a chore (2nd hardest working people in the world)
Created virtual stores where you use smartphones with QR codes to shop. It is then
delivered to your home when you’ve completed your shop
Tesco home plus customers can then shop anywhere online easily
Place and product is digitalised

watching the ads that are pushed at you and you can actively look out for ads

example you are using multi-channel not omnichannel)

makes next years strategy harder to plan for
