Editor's Notes

  1. Slide 6: The 7 P’s briefly outlined This slide is to allow you to see the different P’s that make up the marketing mix. Businesses will often refer to the 7 P’s marketing mix model, when they are marketing a product, service or themselves. The 7 P’s stand for place, price, promotion, people, process, physical evidence and product. Place refers to where the customers can buy the product/service from. Price is whether the price is appropriate for the product/services and whether consumers will purchase it at that price. Promotion is how a business is going to gain consumer awareness of the product/service. This could be through billboards and posters, or through public demonstrations. People stands for any person that is remotely to do with the product, this could be anything from a factory worker to a customer service assistant. These people are all important when it comes to meeting the needs of businesses customers. Process is the way that the business interacts with the customers, for example if the customer has any queries then the businesses staff should have certain procedures in place to ensure that the customer does not have to wait a long time and can get in touch with a staff member quickly. Physical evidence is what the customers can actually see. It is the business confirming to the consumers that the company or the product/service that they are selling is actually what they say it is. Product; in order for a company to sell and make profit from the product/service they are selling they have to guarantee that there is a gap for it in the market and that consumers will actually want to buy it. Before most companies release a product/service they will do a lot of market research to see if there is a demand.
  2. Slide 7: The link between internet marketing and the traditional 7 P’s and how these are used together within River Island Place Internet marketing has helped River Island expand their ways of selling products massively. The main way of expanding their sales and getting their brand marketed is by their website that customers use and browse for items and then purchase these items. Whereas River Island used to be only able to sell their items via there store. River Island now promote and sell their products through; ASOS (which is an online fashion shop, that sells various different brands) and by their mobile phone application that allows people to view their products on the go. Price Advances in technology have enabled River Island to have a special feature on their website that lets consumers adjust the price minimum and maximum when searching for products on their site. This means that River Island’s search engine on their website will only show the customer products within the price range they have selected. This is an advantage because it means that the brand can reach out to a wider ranger of consumers using their internet site. They are allowing customers to edit the site to meet their price needs, instead of having to individually look at items on every page that are out of their price range. Therefore they are only internet marketing the products that suit consumers. Promotion The use of the internet has enabled River Island to vastly increase their ways of promoting products/services. When consumers type into search engines (Google, Bing, Internet Explorer) the name of the fashion products that they are looking for, the search engine immediately lists on their first page, all of the popular brands websites. As River Island is one of these brands, they can pay these search engine companies a lot of money to have their website listed. This then results in River Island being heavily promoted because every time a consumer types in a fashion product into the search engine, they see the brands name. Popular social media sites is another way that internet marketing links with the promotion of River Island. These social media sites allow companies to create a social media page within the site, which the companies can then gather followers on. On these pages the company can post status’s, pictures and videos, the followers can view and share these posts with their friends. Resulting in the brand being heavily promoted and gaining better consumer awareness. Pop up tabs are an additional way that internet marketing helps River Island promote themselves and their products. This is because when consumers are browsing the internet they will find that on the sides of the page there are pop up tabs which contain, either pictures of products or the River Island logo, when clicked on it then directs them to the companies page. This is a good way of promoting themselves as a brand because if consumers keep seeing pop ups they are likely to become tempted and have a look, or think of the brand when they are shopping.
  3. Slide 8: People Due to River Island having a website they now have an alternative way that people can contact them with any queries. For example on their website at the bottom of the page they have a drop down list under a title called; ‘HOW CAN WE HELP’ this has links to their pages called; ‘Delivery & Returns, My Account, Frequently Asked Questions and Contact Us’. Customers are encouraged to use the site to contact them via the site which then gets sent to River Island as an email. Customer satisfaction is met through the customers being able to email River Island staff with queries and it assists with good brand perception. Thus consequently the brand are using the internet to market themselves as a company that are there for their customers. Process Process is the way that a company interacts with the customer. In the retail stores River Island has customer assistants who help meet the customers needs. Although through the internet it is more difficult for River Island to have physical contact with the customers, so they interact with them in a different way. On the site there is a main tab called ‘Style insider’ this is there to help customers who want advice on fashion tips and current trends. River Island even offers a magazine for them to pick up for free. This allows River Island to communicate with their customers as well as marketing their new or soon to be released products at the same time. Physical evidence Customers want to see what they are buying before they purchase it. The internet enables River Island to show the customers the products by images of the products being available on their website. This then gives the customers a sense of reassurance. Furthermore when buying River Island products through ASOS, the customers can view the products on a model walking down a cat walk. Which gives them a more realistic idea of what the product will look like on a person. Product Businesses will often carry out a lot of market research before they bring out a product into the market. The internet can be very useful when carrying out this research because companies are able to find out the views and opinions from various different types of people. Online questionnaires are a main example of how internet marketing can find out peoples thoughts on products. This is because these questionnaires can be asked via social media sites and the companies own websites. As well as being asked through other peoples sites for a fee. Furthermore River Island can look on review sites to find out what people think of their existing products and what new products consumers want to be available from the company. On social media sites, River Island can post pictures/videos of potential new products and ask for consumers for feedback. Or they can ask consumers whether they would purchase this product and if so what price would they be willing to pay. All this information gathered online can help the company decide whether there is a demand for the product and roughly get an idea of what popular features could be added to the product to grasp a larger target audience.
  4. Slide 8: Two trends currently impacting internet marketing and the potential impact on River Island. The increasing use of mobile phones. Mobile phone use is increasing, with phone companies making it easier for their customers to use their phones to do things that people were once doing on computers. People can now do all their banking via their phone, as well as purchasing products using mobile applications. This means that companies who have mobile phone applications available for the consumers to use and who are heavily promoting the use of their apps, are increasing their target audience. As a result of this they are also attracting the customers of other companies who are not promoting their apps as well. River Island is one of these companies, although they do have a mobile phone app, it is not promoted enough. On their website their app is promoted at the very bottom of the page, which is where most consumers do not tend to look at. This causes a massive impact on River Island due to there being a target audience that they are not reaching effectively. The consequences of this is that they are loosing out on potential sales, resulting in their competitors increasing their sales. 2. Blogs/Bloggers Bloggers are people who have websites/social media pages that are dedicated to certain subjects such as fashion. People who have access to the internet are able to view other peoples blogs and can find out information/read reviews and view other posts that these bloggers have posted. In current times there are many different sites that accommodate bloggers such as Tumblr, Facebook, Instagram (photograph blog) and YouTube (which enable bloggers to post videos). However the main site that people use is called Blog.com. Famous bloggers often get sent products from companies, to promote or to write reviews on because these companies know that these bloggers have thousands of people following them who are heavily influenced by what they say. This current trend has a potential big impact on River Island because if these famous bloggers positively review their products or promote their company. Then their sales will increase because these followers will be influenced to buy their products. If River Island wants to increase the amount of bloggers that talk about their products and their company, then they can send these bloggers tester products. Overall this will keep the company happy as well as the bloggers.
