4. Introduction (1)
• Marketing is the most important functions of
any marketing of goods, services, events and
etc. in organization
• Marketing is simple, yet complex.
• We are all involved in marketing and: “the
history of marketing is that it is one of man’s
oldest activities and yet it is regarded as the
most recent of the business disciplines (Baker,
1976).
5. Introduction (2)
• Marketing came into existence with the first
barter exchange, when someone realized that
exchanges add value for both parties.
• This was the first real step forward in economic
development.
• Marketing has evolved (like other practices such
as architecture, medicine, engineering) over the
centuries to where it is today (Michael Baker).
6. Introduction (3)
• According to Peter Drucker, the first test of any
business is not the maximization of profit but
the achievement of sufficient profit to cover
the risks of economic activity and thus avoid
loss.
• Customers are the foundation of a
business and their purpose of existence.
• In other words, customers are the mainstay of
the business.
7. Introduction (4)
• As Peter Drucker puts it: There is only one valid
definition of business purpose: to create a
customer.
• It is the customer who determines what
business is…
• What the business thinks it produces is not of
first importance to its success in the market
place.
• Marketing is the human activity directed at
satisfying human needs and wants through an
exchange process Where?
9. What is a market? (1)
• “A market consists of all the potential
customers sharing a particular need
or want who might be willing and
able to engage in exchange to satisfy
that need or want” (Philip Kotler).
10. What is a market? (2)
• Market can defined with different
perspectives
• 1. Place concept: A market may be
considered as convenient meeting
place where buyers and seller gather
together for exchange of goods. We go
to buy shoes, clothes, vegetables, fruits,
etc., to nearby places in our city.
11. What is a market? (3)
2. Area Concept: It is the economic concept. Any
area providing a set of price-making forces
may become a market; we need three
conditions:
1. Unmet wants
2. Products to meet this demand
3. Means of interaction or intercommunications
so that forces of demand and supply can
interact to determine the price without face-
to-face meeting of seller and buyer.
12. What is a market? (4)
• 3. Demand Concept: Today, a market is
equated with the total demand.
• Hence, market means a group of people
having unmet wants, purchasing power to
make their demand effective and the will to
spend their income to fulfill those wants.
14. TYPES OF MARKETS (1)
• There are a number of market
1. On the basis of selling area, we have
local, national and international markets.
2. On the basis of article of trade, we have
products markets, eg., cotton market,
bullion market.
3. On the basis of nature of exchange
dealings, we have spot or cash market
and futures or forward market.
15. TYPES OF MARKETS (2)
4. On the basis of nature of goods sold, we have
consumer goods market and industrial goods
market.
5. On the basis of period, we have short-term
and long-term markets, eg., money market for
short-term funds and capital market for long-
term funds.
6. On the basis of nature and magnitude of
selling, we have wholesale and retail market.
16. Types of Market (3)
• In general, market can be classified into two
• Consumer markets
• Business markets
18. What is Marketing?(1)
• Almost every marketing textbook has a
different definition of the term “marketing.”
The better definitions are focused upon
customer orientation and satisfaction of
customer needs;
• The American Marketing Association (AMA)
uses the following: “The process of planning
and executing the conception, pricing,
promotion, and distribution of ideas, goods,
and services to create exchanges that satisfy
individual and organizational objectives.”
19. What is Marketing? (2)
• Philip Kotler uses, “Marketing is the social
process by which individuals and groups
obtain what they need and want through
creating and exchanging products and value
with others.”
• The Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM),
“Marketing is the management process that
identifies, anticipates and satisfies customer
requirements profitably.”
20. What is Marketing? (3)
• To summarize then we can see that a simple
definition of marketing would be,
• “The right product, in the right place, at the
right time, at the right price,” Adcock et. al.
• This is a succinct and practical definition that
uses Borden/McCarthy’s 4Ps – Product, Price,
Place & Promotion, which are covered in
Chapter the following chapters.
21. What is Marketing? (4)
• Origin of Marketing
• Hundred years ago, most firms were
production-oriented, i.e., the manufactures
focused on production of quality products and
then looked for people to purchase them.
• With technological transformation, the
emphasis shifted to an effective sales force to
find customers for their growing output.
22. What is Marketing? (5)
• After 1950, the shift to marketing was so
emphatic that the manufactures first took into
consideration the customers’ wants and then
manufactured their goods accordingly.
23. Market Orientation
• Production Orientation
--1850s -> 1930s
• Sales Orientation
-- 1930s -> 1950s Time

and assumes customers will want
the product/service.
25. What is Marketing? (8)
•Product Orientation
• Focus on the technical perfection of
the product/service seen through
the producer’s (firm) eyes.
• Assumes customers will perceive
product/service in the same way
and thus buy.
26. What is Marketing? (9)
• Selling Orientation
• Focus on persuading (usually aggressive)
customers to buy products which do
not usually match their
requirements. This is unlikely to
lead to repeat buy/business.
27. What is Marketing? (10)
• Customer Orientation
• Focus on discovering customer
needs (basic survey/question & answer type)
and satisfying them. This is unlikely
to make best uses of production and
other organizational resources.

needs, organizational resources and
objectives. Achieve effective match
through market segmentation, targeting,
positioning and resource development
(see also Role of Marketing).

gains from owning and using a product

challenged firms to prosper
financially and even survive in the
face of an unforgiving economic
environment.
• Marketing is playing a key role in
addressing those challenges.

for there to be a bottom line.

other business functions won’t really
matter without sufficient demand for
products and services so the firm can
make a profit.

society as a whole.

acceptance of new products that have eased
or enriched people’s lives
41. Scope of Marketing (1)

• It may be analyzed in terms of marketing
performance through various functions.
• A number of functions are inherent in
every marketing process and these
functions are to be performed on the
basis of various utilities:

which a producer provides a marketing mix to
meet a consumer demand.
• This process should implement models to
meet customers demand

product’s perceived performance in delivering
value matches a buyer’s expectations.
