TASK 1
1.1Discuss the core concepts of marketing for the travels and tourism
sector
The major task of marketing in tourism sector is to create and
supply tourism product. Marketing managers are charged with the
responsibility of creating and supplying the products or services that best
fit the expectation of the customer’s .This imitative is known as market
orientation concept. The core components of marketing are identification
of customer needs, wants and demands, availability of products and
services, and creating customer value through an exchange process. The
markets of the product have to identify the needs and wants of existing
and potential customer. The customers have to be chosen carefully
according to their product preference and then business has to offer them
the product and service as per their demand. Creating customer value
and satisfaction lie at the heart of travel industry marketing. After having

a product as per market demand, marketers have to make aware the
target market with the products in order to create an exchange process.
The industry players should understand the market, so that they can
construct the marketing programs to deliver superior value and
satisfaction to customers. Building good relations with customer helps to
create customer delight and business can garner value from customer in
terms of sales, profits and customer loyalty (Chahal, 2014).
1.2Impact of marketing environment on individual travel and tourism
business
The marketing environment affects the business of travel and tourism
industry. The business is affected by two types of environments micro and
macro. In micro environment the industry is influenced by internal factors
such as suppliers, market intermediaries, customers and competitors,
whereas in macro environment the business of travel industry is affected
by economy, society, technology, political and cultural environment.

Customers are very sensitive in this industry and they need good
destination packages at low rates. Travelling habits also changes after a
particular time and consumers can switch to other travel agents. Suppliers
in the industry are different travel agents and if the company fails to
provide them proper commissions, they can give business to other
competitors. The numbers of domestic traveler agents decide the
business of individuals. Competition in the industry influences the
business of industry by giving rise to price wars (Kwon, 2008).
Thomson holidays operate internationally, so the macro
environment influences operations of company. The state of economy,
interest rates, currency exchange rates as well as the industry ownership
and wealth distribution in society decides business growth. The
technological environment such as product technology and the global
distribution of operational system is very important to be known. Social
and cultural environment of different countries affect travels and tourism
business as the customers have different cultural believes and values.
Now customers have become socially concerned about the environmental
issues so they prefer to visit safe and healthy places. Political environment
includes government policies, taxation system also influence operation of
individual travel and tourism business (Garrod, 2005).
1.3Factors affecting consumer motivation and demand in travel and
tourism sector
The buyer’s behavior plays an important role in demand of travel
and tourism products and services. There are different factors in travel
and tourism sector from which the customer can be motivated such as
Physical motivations, cultural motivations, personal motivations, prestige
and Status motivations etc. Every customer wants safety and security and
5Ask Help for Assignment Writing Service in Australia from
Instant Assignment Help
if selected traveler company provides medical and other facilities then
customer will be motivated to use the services of that company. Cultural
influences the buying behavior of the individual. Like some people are
born in spiritual families then they are inclined toward visiting spiritual
places, individuals from nuclear family can search the options for
adventurous places. Advertisements of the travel packages can also be a
motivating factor. If Thomson holidays will be able to create customer
value and satisfaction it will be a positive sign of company’s growth
(O’Connor, 2005).
The generic model of buying behavior is applicable in industry which
says that buying process starts with need recognition. First the customer
plans out to go for outings after that he searches the available
destinations and travel agents having the various travel packages. The
customers then evaluate the available options according to their own
needs. After selecting the destination and the traveler package last stage
is the customer experience from the particular traveler agency and its
services. If customer is satisfied then he/she will come again for the same
or other services. Delighted customer becomes a source of promotion for
the company (Wong and Kwan, 2001).
1.4Principles of market segments and use of marketing planning
In travel and tourism sector customers cannot be served in a similar
way so the company needs to select only those customers who can serve
well and profitably. In order to create value and satisfy the customers the
company should decide whom to serve. The task can be done through
market segmentation. In the segmentation process, the company can
divide the market into groups having similar needs. Then company goes
for target marketing, by which the company can, easily become aware
6Ask Help for Assignment Writing Service in Australia from
Instant Assignment Help
about the needs and wants of consumer in target market (Hemmington,
2007). There are several bases on which travel and tourism industry can
be segmented such as; demographic, economic, psychographic profile,
purpose of travel, buyer needs & motivations and buyer behavior or
characteristics of product usage and the price. Market segmentation helps
the business in marketing planning as having knowledge about particular
segment’s customer needs and wants, company can design its marketing
mix. The product can be created within budget criteria of target
customers (Andreu and et.al, 2005). The company can adopt promotion
strategies by which the target consumer can be attracted. Thomson
Holiday Traveler Company desires to create a cultural package of six days
to visit the Denmark, Amsterdam, Lisbon and Porto; it can be done
through proper segmentation of market. The company can decide the
package price and promotion by analyzing the demand in the marketplace
(Middleton, 2000).
TASK 2
2.1 Importance of strategic marketing planning
Strategic marketing planning is a process of. It includes all the
decisions used to formulate and implement strategies designed to achieve
the marketing objectives of an organization. A strategic marketing plan
helps a business in identifying the goals of a particular business and it
also gives the in-depth information of target markets and potential and
existing customers. This information will help in taking long term business
decision. Effective marketing plan can help company to decide its
marketing activities. Having a strategic marketing plan business can
develop its budget plan and can decide in what manner business can use
its available resources in different activities. This marketing budget will
7Ask Help for Assignment Writing Service in Australia from
Instant Assignment Help
help the company in reducing its cost and time. In the case study
Thompson management wants to offer a cultural holiday package. For
that purpose firstly business had to develop marketing plan and principals
of strategic marketing planning will help mangers to plan the marketing
activities.
Travel and tourism organisations goal is to understand customers’
demands and create value satisfaction. Strategic planning helps the
companies to plan their strategies according to the market. It involves
situational analysis in order to identify factors of both internal and
external environments that could impact on the achievement of objectives.
Strategic marketing planning assists the company to identify its strengths
and weaknesses. By evaluating external environment one can know the
possible opportunities and threats of business. Company can know areas
of product life cycle. It will help the company to identify the possible
opportunities to develop a new product. Strategic marketing in travels and
tourism industry can be done through tourism lifecycle. The different
stages from which tourist area passes through are exploration,
involvement, development, consolidation, stagnation and decline. After
the decline stage a further step has to be taken in order to maintain the
desired position. It also helps the company to have competitive advantage
as business can develop its superior strategy by identifying the strategies
of its competitors. So strategic marketing plan creates a two –way
advantages for business as at one side it helps in designing the marketing
pan while utilizing the available resources in an efficient manner. On the
other hand it helps the business to minimise its cost on marketing
activities (Kozak, 2002).

2.2 Relevance of marketing research and market information to managers
in travels and tourism
Marketing research is the process of collecting marketing
information in a systematic manner. The business can further integrate
that data into an in- depth analysis, which can help the organization to
achieve long-term marketing goals. Thompson holidays needs to collect
market information by which they can offer a cultural package according
to customer needs. Marketing research in the tourism industry is about
understanding that in what manner the placement of marketing elements
such as product, price, promotion and distribution should be in order to
meet customer needs in order to succeed in the marketplace. Through the
market research travel agency can anticipate and identify the demand of
existing and potential customers (Gök and Hacioglu, 2010). Through
market research a target market consisting of a whole group of potential
customers can be developed and individual customers can be satisfied.
Market research gives all the needed information by which marketing
strategies can be developed (Raimund, 2008). The information collected

9Ask Help for Assignment Writing Service in Australia from
Instant Assignment Help
through marketing research can give the information about competitor’s
marketing strategies. The management of Thompson holidays can
compare their marketing plan with the plan of Rivalry Company and this
will help them to create a effective business pan which will attract more
customers. The research plays important roles for managers as they can
forecast budget for future sales. Market information helps the managers in
taking effective business decisions.The activities in marketing research
should be planned in order to take specific decisions that drive marketing
strategies. Having market information companies can forecast the future
sales of travel packages and can also measure current demand and the
tourism trends. The company has to maintain proper marketing
information system in which they can record dates of previous consumers
(Kotler, Bowen and Makens, 2003). In this way they can also develop CRM
(customer relationship management) which involves managing detailed
information about individual customers in order to maximize customer
loyalty (Eliot, 2013).
2.3 Assess the influence of marketing on society
A company operates for a society not only for an individual
customer. Marketing operates in an environment external to the business
unit so it influences society in both ways positive as well as negative.
Marketing’s relationship to its external environment has a significant
effect on the success of organization. The important function of marketing
in tourism industry is to understand needs and likes & dislikes of
customers. Marketing helps society to become aware about the products
that can satisfy their needs (Dobrivojevic, 2013). The role of travel
agencies is to offer such a product that can meet customer needs. The
company has to follow the existing rules and regulations in marketing
10Ask Help for Assignment Writing Service in Australia from
Instant Assignment Help
practices. The concept of consumerism is to be followed in which
customer is to be given priority by providing quality product at fair prices
and at the right time according to its convenience. Social responsibility in
marketing has to be considered by which consumer satisfaction, and
societal well-being can be given equal value (Retseptor, 2005). Marketing
ethics and social responsibility are the issues in marketing. In the travel
and tourism business it is important to deliver the services in an ethical
way in which, customer can be delighted. Companies need to reflect
ethical behavior while providing the services to the firm. Companies
should make the customers aware about all the correct information while
offering then a travel package ( Oh, Kim and Shin, 2004).Thomson has to
choose a promotion mix plan which can attract the customer from a target
market. The marketing activities should give a positive message to society,
in this way the more customers can be attracted toward a new cultural
holiday package.

TASK 3
3.1Discuss issues in product, price and place element of marketing mix of
London Gatwick airport
Gatwick airport is second-largest international airport and
the second-busiest in number of total passenger traffic in United
Kingdom. It is also Europe’s leading airport for point-to-point flights. The
marketing mix of the airport and the issues related to it are as follows:
➢ Product: The products of airport are its services such as Flight
tracking, shops, taxi services, communications, security,
accommodations, hotels, restaurants, lounge, parking facility for
more than 8 days etc. In its hotel services it has 141 rooms with
fixed bathroom with shower, high speed Internet and paid TV
facilities. The product of the airports is intangible in nature so the
main issue related to services of airport is that of standardization.
➢ Prices: As the airport is an international airport it has to set the
prices of different services at very high. To set the prices is very
difficult as the services are intangible. The airport parking is for both
long and short term parking is available at huge charges, this
becomes a biggest issue for Gatwick airport marketing mix. The
company can offer lower charges on flights and other services to
attract more visitors (Eliot, 2013).
➢ Place: Gatwick is located in the Southern and Northern portion of
London city which helps them to attract more visitors. The customer
can easily get taxi service from anywhere in the city. The issue
related to place is Gatwick airport is the taxi drivers charge a big
amount from customer. The management should fix the charges by
collaborating with taxi owners.
12Ask Help for Assignment Writing Service in Australia from

➢ Promotion: The airport promotes its services mostly through online
booking counters and websites. The flight arrivals and departures
information has also been given on website of company. The
customer can compare the services with other flights; this creates
the problem of switching customer to another rival company. Their
existing customers are also the source of company’s promotion. Low
quality of service delivery always becomes cause of customer
dissatisfaction. By collaborating with some flight company,
advertising can be made more effective (Kolb, 2006).

attract more customers (Morrison, 2013.).
➢ Process: The element of marketing mix refers a systems used to

through a process in service sector. For the airport, process should
in the manner to deliver efficient service in quick time. The process
14Ask Help for Assignment Writing Service in Australia from
Instant Assignment Help
of delivering services has to be easy and should be understandable
by the customers. In process, it is important to have customer and
service provider at a similar place. A trained employee can deliver
the services in effective manner in order to satisfy the customer
(Simkin, 2012). The importance of process marketing mix at Gatwick
airport is if customers are coming late in the airport premises, he
/she could be given quick and clear instructions for luggage
checking, place of arrival, timings of flight arrivals. So customer can
make decision quickly. Through the process mix customer can be

company from its competitors. In the case of Gatwick airport

brochures, furnishing of airport and its nearby area, signage on
aircraft, uniforms of staff, business cards. For the tourism industry
this marking element plays an important role as customer needs

environment they can switch to other companies. The environment
has to be attractive in which the product or service is delivered in
order to attract more visitors and customers (Holloway, 2004).
