should not be in the hands of the firms but in the hands of the
consumers. The firms should produce what consumers want.
◦ Integrated Marketing: Marketing can never be an isolated
management function. Every activity on the marketing side will have
some bearing on the other functional areas of management such as
production, personnel or finance.
◦ Consumer Satisfaction: The marketing concept emphasizes that it is
not enough if a firm ahs consumer orientation; it is essential that such
an orientation leads to consumer satisfaction.
◦ Realization of Organizational Goals including Profit: If a firm has
succeeded in generating consumer satisfaction, is implies that the firm
has given a quality product, offered competitive price and prompt
service and has succeeded in creating good image.

Editor's Notes

  • #21 Commodity Approach: The first approach is the commodity approach under which a specific commodity is selected and then its marketing methods and environments are studied in the course of its movement from producer to consumer. In this approach, the subject matter of discussion centers around the specific commodity selected for the study and includes the sources and conditions of supply, nature and extent of demand, the distribution channels used, promotional methods adopted etc. Functional Approach: The second approach is the functional approach under which the study concentrates on the specialized functions or services performed by the marketers and the problems faced by them in performing those functions. Such marketing functions include buying, selling, storage, standardizing, transport, finance, risk-bearing, market information etc. This approach certainly enables one to gain detailed knowledge on various functions of marketing. Institutional Approach: The third approach is the institutional approach under which the main interest centers around the institutions or agencies that perform marketing functions. Such agencies include wholesalers, retailers, mercantile agents and facilitating institutions like transport undertakings, banks, insurance companies etc. This approach helps one to find out the operating methods adopted by these institutions and the various problems faced by them and to know how they work together in fulfilling their objectives. Managerial Approach: In the managerial approach, the focus of marketing study is on the decision-making process involved in the performance of marketing functions at the level of a firm. The study encompasses discussion of the different underlying concepts, decision influencing factors; alternative strategies – their relative importance, strengths and weaknesses, ad techniques and methods of problem-solving. This approach entails the study of marketing at the micro-level of a business firm – of the managerial functions of analysis, planning, implementation, coordination and control in relation to the marketing functions or creating, stimulating, facilitating and valuing transactions. Systems Approach: Modern marketing is complex, vast and sophisticated and it influences the entire economy and standard of living of people. Hence marketing experts have developed one more approach namely ‘System approach’. Under this approach, marketing itself is considered as a sub-system of economic, legal and competitive marketing system. The marketing system operates in an environment of both controllable and uncontrollable forces of the organization. The controllable forces include all aspects of products, price, physical distribution and promotion. The uncontrollable forces include economic, sociological, psychological and political forces. The organization has to develop a suitable marketing programme by taking into consideration both these controllable and uncontrollable forces to meet the changing demands of the society. The systems approach, in fact, examines this aspect and also integrates commodity, functional institutional and managerial approaches. Further, this approach emphasis the importance of the use of ‘market information’ in marketing programmes. Thus, from the foregoing discussion, one could easily understand that the marketing could be studied in any of the above approach and the systems approach is considered to be the best approach as it provides a strong base for logical and orderly analysis and planning of marketing activities.
