Chapter 2
Marketing: Basic Fundamentals
“Marketing is a social and managerial process by which individuals and groups
obtain what they need and want through creating, offering and exchanging products of value
with others.”
- Phillip Kotler
This definition of marketing rests on some core concept. These are – needs, wants,
demands, products (goods, services and ideas), values, cost, satisfaction, exchange,
transaction, relationship and network, markets, and marketers.
Marketing is a process of exchanging products of value with others with giving each
of them maximum benefit. Marketing concept is a business philosophy that makes waves
during 1950’s. The marketing concepts holds the key to achieving organizational goals
consists of being more effective than competitors in integrating marketing activities toward
determining and satisfying the needs and wants of target market. The marketing concepts has
been expressed is many colourful ways.
Integrated marketing is done when all company’s department work together to serve
the customer’s interest, the result is integrated marketing. Integrated marketing works on two
levels. First, the various marketing functions like sales force, advertising, product
management, marketing research and so on to work together.
Secondly marketing must be well coordinated with other company departments.
Marketing does not work when it is merely department. It works only when all employees
appreciate their impact on customer satisfaction.
The Social Marketing concept holds that the organization’s task is to determine the
needs, wants, and interest of target markets and to deliver the desired satisfaction more
effectively and efficiently than competitor in a way that preserves or enhances the consumer’s
and the society’s wellbeing.
The societal marketing concepts cells upon marketers to build social and ethical
consideration into their marketing practices. The must balance and juggle the often
conflicting criteria of company profits, consumer wants, satisfaction and public interest.
15
Consumer Behaviour
According to Engel, Blackwell and Miniard (1995), consumer behaviour is defined as
the study of individuals or groups in obtaining, using and disposing of products and services,
including the decision making process and the processes preceding the behaviour following it.
Consumer behaviour can be explained on a macro level and micro level views. The
consumer behaviour involves in examining the reasons for the behaviours of the customers
more than the examination of the consumer actions.
Considering the macro level, the interests of the marketers lie on the demographic
changes, society’s value, beliefs and practices that affect the way the customer interact in the
marketplace. In the micro level view, consumer behaviour concentrates the human
behaviour and the reasons behind the behaviour. Consumer choice is one of the key and
important aspects of consumer behaviour. The relevance consumer choice and the decision
making process is also depicted in the theory of utility in economics.
Consumer behaviour researchers are more interested in various factors that what
are the factors or which influenced consumer buying behaviour. External factors which
influence a customer buying behaviour e.g. culture, family, reference group, environmental/
situational, temperature, humidity etc. The Internal factors which influence a customer
buying behaviour e.g. lifestyle and psychographics, personality, decision making process,
motivation etc.
The Consumer Decision Making process is reasonably straight forward means of
identifying the level of consumer commitment towards purchasing a product or service. It
includes five recognised steps in the consumer decision-making process which are
first, Need Recognition is the stage which occurs when the consumer establishes that they
need a product or service (Kotler et al 2009). Several precursors can prompt need
recognition including advertising and recommendation.
Second, Information Search arrives once a consumer has decided that they need to
purchase a product or service then they will begin to search for information surrounding the
products. The sources of information available to the customer are numerous and include
internet, print media, newspaper, TV commercials etc.
Third, Evaluation of Alternatives occurs once this information has been gathered
than the consumer will evaluate the alternatives and based on their personal interpretation.
Fourth, Purchase Decision is the stage where the consumer will make a decision to
purchase a product or service after all the previous stages of decision making process. If a
consumer has previously received a product or service which they are happy with, then in
future they are likely to repeat the purchase meaning they will jump straight to this stage in
the process of decision making.
Fifth, Post Purchase Evaluation is the final stage, after the product or service has
been purchased. Consumers retrospectively evaluate their purchase decision against their
original assessment and purchase criteria, identifying the extent to which an item has meet,
exceeded or even failed to meet expectations of the consumer.

SWOT Analysis
SWOT (Strength, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) is a tool used to provide a general
or detailed snapshot of company’s health. A SWOT analysis stands for Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats, it’s a simple and powerful way to analyse the
company’s present marketing situation.
In any business, it is imperative that the business be its own worst critic.
A SWOT analysis forces an objective analysis of a company’s position vies its competitor and
marketplace. Simultaneously, an effective SWOT analysis will helps to determine in which
areas a company is succeeding, allowing it to allocate resources in such a way as to maintain
any dominant position it may have
A SWOT analysis is an integral part of a marketing plan and can also be
part of a business plan. Knowing what a SWOT analysis is and how to perform one is very
important.
The SWOT of the organisation are as follows:

multi-brand outlets.

 Sometimes the prices of shoes is high, which is a crucial thing in the semi-urban cities
of India.
Opportunities

an opportunity to increase reach PAN India.
 In India, people now look toward buying footwear as a blend of fashion and comfort,
so now has an increasing market size.
 Global expansion would help in brand building and sales.
 Has a chance to grab more numbers of market share.

might yield a great advantage to Liberty Footwear Ltd. in making their customer satisfaction,
advertisement and procuring the desired goals.
The recommendations are listed below:
 As majority of the respondents purchases casual shoes, Liberty should add some
more varieties in other shoes i.e. variants in design, size and colour in, sports shoes,
formal shoes and kid’s shoes.
 New line of collection should be introduced for festivals.
 To improve product visualization the company should do visual merchandising in
better way.
 Customers are mostly purchases from the exclusive showrooms, hence the company
should also concentrate in the field of online sales to make it more convenience for
the customers.
 Customers are very eager to know about offers, discount schemes provided by Liberty
footwear than the company should do better marketing for creating awareness about
offers and other promotional schemes.
 The company should try to include more staffs in kid’s footwear to attract the
customers.
 The company should concentrate more on advertising and sales promotion to through
different media.
 The company has the option of reducing the cost of production, so that the price
sensitive customers can also be covered by the effective marketing strategy.

  • 14. 14 Chapter 2 Marketing: Basic Fundamentals “Marketing is a social and managerial process by which individuals and groups obtain what they need and want through creating, offering and exchanging products of value with others.” - Phillip Kotler This definition of marketing rests on some core concept. These are – needs, wants, demands, products (goods, services and ideas), values, cost, satisfaction, exchange, transaction, relationship and network, markets, and marketers. Marketing is a process of exchanging products of value with others with giving each of them maximum benefit. Marketing concept is a business philosophy that makes waves during 1950’s. The marketing concepts holds the key to achieving organizational goals consists of being more effective than competitors in integrating marketing activities toward determining and satisfying the needs and wants of target market. The marketing concepts has been expressed is many colourful ways. Integrated marketing is done when all company’s department work together to serve the customer’s interest, the result is integrated marketing. Integrated marketing works on two levels. First, the various marketing functions like sales force, advertising, product management, marketing research and so on to work together. Secondly marketing must be well coordinated with other company departments. Marketing does not work when it is merely department. It works only when all employees appreciate their impact on customer satisfaction. The Social Marketing concept holds that the organization’s task is to determine the needs, wants, and interest of target markets and to deliver the desired satisfaction more effectively and efficiently than competitor in a way that preserves or enhances the consumer’s and the society’s wellbeing. The societal marketing concepts cells upon marketers to build social and ethical consideration into their marketing practices.

  • 15. 15 Consumer Behaviour According to Engel, Blackwell and Miniard (1995), consumer behaviour is defined as the study of individuals or groups in obtaining, using and disposing of products and services, including the decision making process and the processes preceding the behaviour following it. Consumer behaviour can be explained on a macro level and micro level views. The consumer behaviour involves in examining the reasons for the behaviours of the customers more than the examination of the consumer actions. Considering the macro level, the interests of the marketers lie on the demographic changes, society’s value, beliefs and practices that affect the way the customer interact in the marketplace. In the micro level view, consumer behaviour concentrates the human behaviour and the reasons behind the behaviour. Consumer choice is one of the key and important aspects of consumer behaviour. The relevance consumer choice and the decision making process is also depicted in the theory of utility in economics. Consumer behaviour researchers are more interested in various factors that what are the factors or which influenced consumer buying behaviour. External factors which influence a customer buying behaviour e.g. culture, family, reference group, environmental/ situational, temperature, humidity etc. The Internal factors which influence a customer buying behaviour e.g. lifestyle and psychographics, personality, decision making process, motivation etc. The Consumer Decision Making process is reasonably straight forward means of identifying the level of consumer commitment towards purchasing a product or service. It includes five recognised steps in the consumer decision-making process which are first, Need Recognition is the stage which occurs when the consumer establishes that they need a product or service (Kotler et al 2009). Several precursors can prompt need recognition including advertising and recommendation. Second, Information Search arrives once a consumer has decided that they need to purchase a product or service then they will begin to search for information surrounding the products. The sources of information available to the customer are numerous and include internet, print media, newspaper, TV commercials etc. Third, Evaluation of Alternatives occurs once this information has been gathered than the consumer will evaluate the alternatives and based on their personal interpretation. Fourth, Purchase Decision is the stage where the consumer will make a decision to purchase a product or service after all the previous stages of decision making process. If a consumer has previously received a product or service which they are happy with, then in future they are likely to repeat the purchase meaning they will jump straight to this stage in the process of decision making. Fifth, Post Purchase Evaluation is the final stage, after the product or service has been purchased. Consumers retrospectively evaluate their purchase decision against their original assessment and purchase criteria, identifying the extent to which an item has meet, exceeded or even failed to meet expectations of the consumer.
