idea of product as potential customer satisfaction or

up in the technical details. They think of product in terms
of physical components, like effect on the way most
customers view the product. Most customers just want a
product that satisfies their needs.

the products and how they are used knowing this

9. BUSINESS PRODUCTS
Business Products determined based on how buyers see
the product and how it is used (capital versus expense
item, durables versus non-durables).
Capital items (long-lasting, expensive, depreciated
product) and expense items (cost viewed as a business
expense against short-run profit and taxes) treated
differently by firms.
The demand for business products is derived based on
the demand for final products on the market.
Slight increases in price might not reduce the quantity
demanded for business products.
Suppliers may face almost pure competition if there are
many sellers with similar products on the market.

16. THE ROLE OF PACKAGING IN
MARKETING
Packaging involves promoting and protecting the product.
Packaging can be important to both seller and customers.
Packaging can make a product more convenient to use or store.
It can prevent spoiling or damage. Good packaging makes
products easier to identify and promotes the brand at the point of
purchase and even in use.
Sends a message and may lower distribution costs.
Improves convenience but increase cost.
A new package can make the important difference in a new
marketing strategy be meeting customer's needs better. A better
box wrapper can, or bottle may help coast a 'new' product or a
new market. For example, crest toothpaste is now available in a
neat squeeze pump dispenser that makes less mess and leaves
less waste

17. ETHICS AND PRODUCT PRICE
Should marketers use any packaging?
What type of packaging should marketers use?
Pricing involves placing the price per ounce or near the
product. This makes price comparison easier. To speed
handling of fast selling products, government and industry
representatives have develop a Universal Product Code
(UPC) that identifies each product with marks readable by
electronic scanners.
The codes help consumers too because they speed the
checkout process. Also, most systems now include a printed
receipt showing the name, size and price of each product
bought. These codes will become even more widely used in
the future because they do lower operating cost.

19. RECOMMENDATION
Most importantly we should know that a firm's product is what
satisfies the needs of its target market. Branding and
packaging can be created new and more satisfying products.
Branding gives marketing manager a choice. They can add
brands and use individual or family brands. The degree of
brand familiarity is a measure of the marketing manager's
ability to carve out a separate market. And brand familiarity
affects place, price and promotions.
To succeed in our increasingly competitive markets, the
marketing manager must also be concerned about packaging,
branding and warranties.
Warranties are also important in strategy planning.

21. CONCLUSION
A product may not be a physical good at all. It may be a service, or it
may be some combination of goods and services like a meal at a
restaurant. We introduced consumer product and business product
classes and showed their effect on planning marketing mixes. Consumer
product classes are based on consumer's buying behavior.
Business product classes are based on how buyers see the products
and how they are used knowing this product classes and learning how
marketers handle specific products within this classes will help develop
your marketing sense. Branding gives marketing managers a choice.
They can add brands and use individual family brands. In the end,
however customers express their approval or disapproval of the whole
product including the brand.
Warranties are also important in strategy planning. But some customers
find strong warranties attractive, product is concerned with much than
physical goods and services. To succeed, marketing manager must also
be concerned about packaging, branding and warranties
