6. What is marketing?
 What is marketing ?
• It is the action or business of promoting and
selling products or services, including market
research and advertising.
• It is the provision of goods or services to meet
customer or consumer needs.
• The total of activities involved in the transfer of
goods from the producer to the seller to the
consumer or buyer, including advertising,
shipping, storing and selling.

7. Marketing
Putting the right product
in the right place, at the
right price, at the right
time.

8. Online and Digital
Marketing
 Online Marketing vs. Digital Marketing?
• Online marketing refers to the techniques
available to a business to market, promote
and advertise their products, services or brand
on the World Wide Web.
• Digital Marketing is the use of digital channels
to promote or market products and services to
consumers and businesses.

9. Outbound vs Inbound
• Outbound/Push Marketing: This marketing
type pushes message to consumers via such
channels as mailing lists, cold calls or
advertising. It is often expensive.
“Outbound marketing is a marketing model that
requires a lot of marketing messages to be
pushed out through various channels in the
hope that the right message makes it to the right
person.”

10. Outbound vs Inbound
• Inbound/Pull Marketing: Inbound or pull
marketing draws customers in. This is a very
customer centric approach. Inbound marketing
often works by earning someone’s attention,
rather then buying it.
“Inbound marketers make it easy for consumers to
find them when those consumers are searching
for products or services they need, at the time
they need them.”

14. Traditional Marketing vs
New Marketing
Traditional Marketing New Marketing
Expensive Cost effective
Often focuses on local
audience and allows little
room for market
segmentation
Enables targeted
messaging
It is often hard to measure
results
Measurable and scalable
It is static and doesn’t allow
for interaction with the
audience
It allows for two way
conversation

15. Interruption vs Permission
What is interruption marketing?
• Interruption marketing refers to any marketing activity
that “interrupts” a viewer’s attention. Essentially, the aim
of this type of marketing is to capture the attention of
anyone, and everyone, with the hope that your message
will get through to them and interest them enough to
want to learn more about your product or service. Some
of the common forms of interruption marketing include
TV/Radio Advertisements, Print advertising, E-mail
spam, Direct Mail, and Telemarketing.

16. Interruption vs Permission
What is permission marketing?
• Permission marketing refers to marketing activity
whereby you have the privilege/permission to deliver
anticipated, personalized and relevant messages to
customers. This is very different from interruption
marketing in that you have “real” permission (not
legalistic or presumed permission). For instance,
obtaining a customer email address by whatever means
doesn’t mean that you have the right or permission to
contact them. Also, if a customer doesn’t complain when
you send them unsolicited emails it doesn’t mean they
have given you permission.

17. Interruption vs Permission
Interruption Pros Interruption Cons
Quick and easy Lack of target audience
Expensive
Expiry dates apply
Low ROI
Customer perception – annoyance
Permission Pros Permission Cons
Cost effective Slow and time intensive
It produces high conversation rates
Targeted
Long term relationships
Maintains marketing reputation

18. Interruption vs Permission
The average consumer is said to come
into contact with 1 million
advertisements per year – which is
nearly 3000 per day.

19. Integrated Marketing
What is integrated marketing?
Integrated marketing is a marketing strategy that stresses
the importance of a consistent, seamless, multi-
dimensional brand experience for the consumer. This
means that each branding effort – across television,
radio, print, Internet, and in person – is presented in a
similar style that reinforces the brand’s ultimate
message.

20. Integrated Marketing
“I absolutely believe the
real integration
opportunity, and way [for]
most business owners to
blow their competition out
of the water, is the
intentional blending of
online and offline tools and
tactics around a single
marketing strategy.” –
John Jantsch

21. Integrated Marketing
An effective integrated
marketing campaign:
• Is underpinned by strategy
• Strong focus on brand image
• Consistent messaging
• A clear target market is set
• Consistent look and feel across all mediums
• Combines old and new marketing methods to compliment
one another
• The brand story is at the heart of evrything
• Flexible

22. Changing our perspective

23. Integrated Marketing
“Integration is not a dreamland of endless possibilities with
revolutionary marketing results at the end of a rainbow. It’s
an ongoing process made up of many discrete but valuable
steps, each contributing to the greater cause.” – David
Eldridge
“The most important element remains that customers want
and expect a consistent experience across all of their touch
points with companies and products.” – Dwight Griesman

29. Client Life Cycles

30. Customer Life Cycles
Customer life cycle
management is
creating, cultivating,
and constantly
improving your
company’s
relationship with
your clients.

31. Customer Life Cycle
• Reach – All content must be properly
marketed in places where potential customers in your
market will find your information. Creating brand/product
awareness.
• Acquire – You have to understand your potential
customers wants/needs so you can provide a
product/service they will want to purchase or engage with.
Using the methods of inbound marketing convert potential
leads to paying customers.
• Develop – After they have purchased, keep in touch and
build a relationship with your customer. Ensure they are
fully satisfied with their purchase and continue to engage
with them.

32. Customer Life Cycle
• Retain – One time customers will become
repeat customers as long as you are satisfying their
needs. Continue to cultivate a relationship with them by
engaging them. Do not be afraid to ask for feedback.
They will be happy you care about their opinion and you
can use their comments to improve your
product/services. Make them feel a part of the process.
• Advocacy – If your customers are truly satisfied, they
will become brand advocates. This will spread
awareness within their social circles and the cycle will
come full cycle when you reach potential new customers
due to your existing customers.

37. Marketing Audit
Comprehensive – A marketing audit should cover all the
major marketing issues facing an organisation, and not only
one or a few marketing trouble spots. The latter would be
called a functional audit if it covered only the sales force, or
pricing, or some other marketing activity. Approach it
holistically.
Systematic – A marketing audit involves an orderly
sequence of diagnostic steps covering the organization’s
marketing environment, internal marketing system, and
specific marketing activities. The diagnosis is followed by a
corrective action plan involving both short term and long
term solutions.

38. Marketing Audits
Periodic – The marketing audit should normally be carried
out periodically instead of only when there is a crisis. It
promises benefits for the organization that is seemingly
successful, as well as the one that is in deep trouble. It is
all about being proactive verse reactive. However, if a crisis
point hits by all means follow these steps to identify the
issue and to compile a plan of action.
