The document discusses the marketing environment, which includes forces outside of a company's direct control that influence its business capabilities. It describes the internal environment within a company and the external macro and micro environments. The macro environment encompasses broad societal forces, while the micro environment consists of suppliers, customers, competitors, and public groups in the immediate industry. Understanding how these environments shape opportunities and threats is essential for effective marketing planning and competition.
1) Internal factors like marketing objectives, costs, and organizational considerations influence pricing decisions. Marketing objectives can include maximizing profits, market share, or market skimming depending on a product's life cycle stage. Costs include fixed, variable, and achieving break-even points. Organizations must decide who sets prices.
2) External factors also affect pricing including market dynamics, competition, and other environmental influences. The nature of demand depends on market structure - whether perfect competition, monopolistic, oligopolistic, or monopoly. Companies must consider competitors' costs, prices, and potential reactions. Other factors are quality relationships, product lines, regulations, and distributor impacts.
3) Pricing decisions balance internal objectives
The document discusses the marketing environment, which consists of micro and macro factors. The microenvironment includes a company's internal departments as well as suppliers, intermediaries, customers, and competitors. The macroenvironment encompasses large societal forces such as demographic, political, economic, technological, cultural, and legal conditions. Understanding how these internal and external factors influence marketing management is important for building relationships with customers.
This document discusses the key functions of marketing. It outlines the functions of exchange which include buying, assembling, and selling goods. It also discusses the physical supply functions such as transportation, storage, and warehousing. Additionally, it covers the facilitating functions of financing, risk bearing, standardization and grading, market information, and pricing. These functions work together in the marketing process to facilitate the exchange of goods between producers and consumers.

The environment of retailing and decision making issuessooraj yadav
The document discusses the complex external environment in which retailers operate. It examines the legal, competitive, technological, social, economic and global influences on retailers and individual decision making. The social responsibility of retailers has evolved from a focus on customers to considering broader stakeholder needs. Ethical decision making involves considering one's self interest, societal expectations, and the interests of others. The competitive environment forces retailers to adapt through changes in pricing, facilities, service levels and product offerings. Technology is a key driver of change in retailing. Globalization also presents new opportunities for retailers.

The document discusses four types of elasticity of demand: price elasticity, cross elasticity, income elasticity, and advertising elasticity. It provides details on cross elasticity, explaining that it measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded of a good to a change in the price of a related good. Cross elasticity can be positive, negative, or zero depending on whether the goods are substitutes, complements, or unrelated. Income elasticity measures the responsiveness of demand for a good to a change in consumer income. It too can be positive, negative, or zero, depending on whether the good is normal, inferior, or if demand is unchanged by income changes. Advertising elasticity measures the responsiveness of demand

It provides examples and explanations of each element of the marketing environment and how companies analyze and respond to changing environmental factors.
This document discusses different types of market structures: monopolistic competition, oligopoly, monopoly, and perfect competition. It provides characteristics and examples of each. Monopolistic competition involves many producers offering differentiated products. Oligopoly is dominated by a few firms, with high barriers to entry. A monopoly has a single seller controlling the market. Perfect competition has many buyers and sellers of homogeneous products.
This document provides an overview of market segmentation strategies and cases. It defines market segmentation as dividing the market into homogeneous subgroups with similar characteristics or responses. The key points covered include:
- The basis, objectives, characteristics, and process of market segmentation.
- Examples of market segments in India and segmentation strategies based on behavior, demographics, psychographics, and geography.
- The strategic marketing planning process and advantages of segmentation like efficient use of resources and understanding customer needs.
- A case example of segmentation in healthcare and details on specific companies like Nirma, HUL, and Godrej.
This document discusses market pricing decisions and market structures using Porter's model. It covers the key market structures of perfect competition, monopoly, monopolistic competition, and oligopoly. For each structure, it examines how firms make output and pricing decisions based on factors like demand elasticity, costs, and competitors' actions. It also analyzes the implications of each market structure for public interest, including impacts on prices, output, innovation, and resource allocation. Non-price competition strategies like advertising and product development are also briefly discussed.
This document defines and describes different types of products. It discusses that a product can satisfy wants or needs and consists of a bundle of attributes. There are 5 levels of a product: core benefit, basic product, expected product, augmented product, and potential product. Each level adds more customer value. The document also describes consumer products like convenience products, shopping products, and specialty products. It outlines industrial products categories like materials and parts, capital items, and supplies and services.
The document defines and classifies markets based on area, time, competition, function, commodity, and legality. It also discusses different market structures including perfect competition, imperfect competition, monopoly, and oligopoly. Under each structure, it examines firm behavior and equilibrium in both the short run and long run. In perfect competition, firms are price takers and maximize profits where MR=MC. Imperfect structures feature product differentiation and few firms. Monopolies and oligopolies have strategic interdependence between few dominant sellers.
The document discusses different types of markets including product markets, factor markets, and classifications based on geographical area, time element, and nature of competition. It also covers market structures such as perfect competition, monopoly, monopolistic competition, oligopoly, and duopoly. Key characteristics and behaviors are described for each market structure. Pricing determinants, entry barriers, and profit/loss possibilities are also addressed at a high level.
This document discusses different pricing concepts and methods for determining prices, including cost-oriented, demand-oriented, and competition-oriented pricing. It focuses on cost-oriented pricing, where prices are calculated by estimating costs of production and adding a profit margin. Specific cost-based pricing methods discussed include cost-plus pricing, break-even pricing, target return pricing, and early cash recovery pricing. Cost-plus pricing adds a markup percentage to estimated average costs to determine price. While simple, it ignores demand conditions.
This document defines different types of market structures:
- Perfect competition has many small firms, homogeneous products, free entry and exit, and firms that are price-takers.
- Monopoly has a single seller of a unique product without close substitutes that can influence price.
- Monopolistic competition features many small differentiated product sellers with some product differentiation and freedom of entry and exit.
- Oligopoly has a market dominated by a small number of interdependent firms that closely watch each other's actions.
This document discusses the importance of consumer marketing and research. It notes that today consumers have more influence over products and services than in the past. Conducting consumer research is important for understanding customer preferences, perceptions of brands, and insights that can inform new marketing campaigns. Key features of consumer behavior discussed include the influence of others, importance of habits, motivation, self-expectations, aversion to loss, difficulties with computation, and needing to feel involved to enact change. The conclusion restates that marketing involves understanding consumer needs to motivate purchases.
There are several types of markets where buyers and sellers can meet to exchange goods and services. Markets can exist in physical locations where buyers and sellers gather, or they can exist virtually over communication channels like telephone lines, online, or through email. The main types of markets are consumer markets, business markets, global markets, and non-profit/government markets. Consumer markets involve individuals and families buying goods and services for personal use, while business markets involve organizations buying goods and services for business purposes other than personal consumption. Global markets consist of international transactions conducted across national borders, and non-profit markets involve selling goods and services to charitable organizations that have lower purchasing power.
This document discusses factors that affect the selection of marketing channels. It defines marketing channels as the set of organizations involved in making a product available to customers. Channel members perform functions like distribution, promotion, financing, and risk taking. Channels can have zero to three levels depending on the number of intermediaries between producer and consumer. Selection of channels is influenced by product characteristics, market factors, company capabilities, and middlemen attributes. Product considerations include perishability and customization level. Market considerations involve customer concentration and geography. Company factors relate to financial strength and experience. Middlemen criteria comprise availability, services offered, and financial strength.
This document discusses the concept of utility in economics. It defines utility as the capacity of a good or service to satisfy human wants. The document outlines several key characteristics of utility, including that it is psychological, individual, relative, and cannot be objectively measured. It also discusses different types of utility related to production and consumption, including form utility, place utility, time utility, service utility, marginal utility, total utility, and average utility. The relationship between marginal utility and total utility is explored, noting that total utility is maximized when marginal utility reaches zero.
Market segmentation involves dividing a broad target market into subsets of consumers who have common needs, interests, and priorities. The key aspects of market segmentation are segmentation, targeting, and positioning. Segmentation involves dividing the market into homogeneous subgroups. Targeting involves evaluating segments and selecting target markets to serve. Positioning develops the company's offering and image to occupy a place in the target market's mind. Common bases for segmentation include demographic, geographic, psychographic, and behavioral factors. Effective segmentation allows companies to better meet customer needs and maximize profits through tailored marketing strategies.

Business activity is categorized into three sectors: primary, secondary, and tertiary. The primary sector involves extracting raw materials. The secondary sector transforms raw materials into manufactured goods. The tertiary sector provides services to society. In many African countries, the primary sector dominates due to natural resources. In the UK, the primary and secondary sectors have declined while the tertiary sector has grown, partly due to outsourcing manufacturing. Economies also have private and public sectors; the private sector aims for profit while the public sector provides some services freely from tax revenue.

The document provides an overview of business-to-business (B2B) marketing. It discusses that the B2B market is significantly larger than the consumer market. Business products are those used to manufacture other products, become part of another product, aid in normal business operations, or are acquired for resale without change. Key differences between B2B and consumer marketing include the nature of the markets, buyer behavior, relationships, and environmental influences. Relationship marketing focuses on establishing, developing and maintaining successful exchanges with business customers.
This document summarizes the key differences between consumer markets and business markets. Consumer markets refer to markets where individuals purchase products for personal use, while business markets involve organizations purchasing goods and services to manufacture other products or provide services. The document outlines characteristics like demographic profiles, decision processes, types of buyers and products that distinguish these two markets. Consumer markets have many geographically dispersed customers making independent choices, while business markets have fewer concentrated customers purchasing in larger volumes through more complex decision cycles.
1) The document discusses business markets and business buying behavior, outlining major categories of business buyers like producers, resellers, government, and non-profits.
2) It describes demand characteristics that differentiate business markets, like demand being derived from consumer products and fluctuating more than consumer demand.
3) The buying process in business markets involves multiple individuals and groups in a buying center that perform roles like initiating purchases, using products, influencing specifications, deciding, and processing orders.
Unit-I
Marketing:
Definition, general concepts and scope of marketing, distinction between marketing & selling.
Marketing environment. Industry and competitive analysis. Analyzing consumer buying
behaviour and industrial buying behaviour.
Industrial markets present different challenges than consumer markets. Industrial markets consist of organizations that purchase goods and services to create their own offerings. Industrial marketing involves matching a supplier's capabilities with a customer's desired outcomes to create value for both organizations and their downstream customers. Industrial customers include commercial enterprises like original equipment manufacturers, government organizations, and institutions. These customers often have complex purchase processes involving multiple decision makers. Suppliers must understand the unique characteristics and needs of industrial customers in order to succeed in business-to-business marketing and sales.
The document discusses different types of markets:
- Consumer markets involve individuals purchasing goods and services for personal use. Business markets involve companies purchasing goods and services to produce other products or for business operations.
- Types of business markets include producer markets of goods transformed for resale, reseller markets of goods resold untransformed, government markets, and institutional markets.
- A global market has worldwide exchange of goods, services, and labor unrestricted by geographic location. Companies must navigate differences in countries, cultures, laws, and currencies when operating in global markets.
- Nonprofit and government markets have limited budgets, requiring priced tailored to their needs with emphasis on practical solutions and cost-effectiveness
The market is presented as a form that is for the cultural advantage of the general public. The market structure comprises different types of markets, and the structures are portrayed by the nature and the level of competition that exists for the goods and services in the market. The forms of the market, both for the products market and the factor market or the service market, is to be decided by the idea of rivalry that is winning in a specific kind of market.
The Market structure is an expression that is resultant for the quality or the adequacy of the market competition that is winning in the market.
A market economy determines resource allocation through supply and demand. Private ownership and the "invisible hand" guide production based on consumer spending. Most modern economies combine market and command elements. Competitive markets have many participants and price-taking firms, while non-competitive markets have few dominant firms that influence prices. The law of demand states that as price rises, quantity demanded falls due to less purchasing power and substitution effects. Individual demand reflects a person's preferences, while market demand aggregates all individuals' curves. Factors like income, population, tastes, substitutes, and expectations impact demand shifts.
This document discusses industry and competitive analysis in strategic management. It covers analyzing the five competitive forces that shape industry competition: threat of new entrants, bargaining power of suppliers and buyers, threat of substitutes, and rivalry among existing firms. It also discusses consumer and industrial buying behavior, factors influencing consumer behavior, types of industrial customers, classification of industrial products/services, and the eight phases of industrial buying decision processes.
This document discusses ethical practices in marketing. It begins by defining ethics as moral principles that govern actions. It then summarizes different market structures: perfect competition has many small buyers/sellers, monopoly has a single seller with barriers to entry, and oligopoly has a small number of interdependent firms. The document notes factors to consider when determining if a payment is ethical and identifies clearly unethical practices like price fixing. Finally, it examines ethical issues that can arise in the four P's of marketing - products, pricing, placement/distribution, and promotion/advertising.
This document discusses several markets and their resemblance to perfect competition. It begins by outlining the 5 assumptions of perfect competition and noting that they rarely exist together in the real world. Several markets are then examined, ranging from those with lower resemblance to perfect competition (food and beverage, automobile) to those with higher resemblance (agriculture, internet, foreign currency markets, jewelry). For each market, their similarities and limitations compared to the assumptions of perfect competition are described.
This document discusses different types of market competition - perfect competition, monopoly, and oligopoly. It provides definitions and key characteristics of each. A perfect competition market has many buyers and sellers, free entry and exit, perfect information, and no external influences. A monopoly market has one dominant seller and barriers to entry for competitors. An oligopoly market has a small number of large firms that can influence prices through tacit or explicit coordination. The document notes some unethical practices that can occur in oligopoly markets, such as price fixing or market allocation. It concludes that monopoly and oligopoly markets are more likely to violate ethical standards compared to perfect competition.
1. The document discusses business buyer behavior and organizational buyer behavior. It defines business buyer behavior as the buying behavior of organizations that purchase goods and services for use in producing other products.
2. Characteristics of business markets are described, including that sales in business markets far exceed consumer markets. Business markets differ from consumer markets in their structure, demands, buying units, and decision processes.
3. Organizational buyer behavior involves a process that includes problem recognition, need description, product specification, supplier search and selection, ordering, and performance review.
The document discusses different market structures including perfect competition, monopoly, oligopoly, monopolistic competition, and monopsony. It provides characteristics and assumptions of each structure. Perfect competition has many small firms and homogeneous products. A monopoly has one dominant firm with high barriers to entry. Oligopoly has a few dominant firms producing either homogeneous or differentiated products. Monopolistic competition has many small firms with differentiated but substitutable products. Monopsony exists when there is a single dominant buyer in a market with many suppliers.
This document discusses an external assessment submitted by Himansh Tiwari and Shivangi Tyagi. It summarizes the key points of an external audit, including identifying trends and events outside an organization's control that present opportunities and threats. The main external forces analyzed are economic, social/demographic, political/legal, technological, and competitive factors. Porter's Five Forces model of industry competition is also explained.
This document discusses various techniques for analyzing a company's marketing environment, including PEST analysis, Porter's Five Forces, and SWOT analysis. It also examines how intermediaries and other stakeholders influence marketing decisions. PEST analysis evaluates political, economic, social and technological factors in the macro environment. Porter's Five Forces assesses competitive rivalry, threat of substitutes and new entrants, and supplier and buyer power. SWOT analyzes internal strengths and weaknesses as well as external opportunities and threats. Microenvironmental factors like customers, suppliers, and competitors directly impact marketing strategy.
The document discusses different topics related to market structures and business cycles. It defines different market structures - perfect competition, monopoly, monopolistic competition, and oligopoly - and describes their key features. It also outlines the steps involved in pricing policies and decisions, and lists various pricing methods. Finally, it identifies the different stages of business cycles as expansion, peak, recession, depression, trough, and recovery.
This document discusses different types of market structures including perfect competition, monopoly, monopolistic competition, and oligopoly. It provides definitions and key characteristics of each type. Perfect competition is defined as a large number of small sellers and buyers, homogeneous products, free entry and exit into the market, and perfect knowledge. A monopoly is a single seller of a unique product without close substitutes. Monopolistic competition features differentiated but similar products from many small sellers. Oligopoly involves a small number of interdependent sellers of either homogeneous or differentiated products.

Market Segmentation, advantages and its limitation, market segmentation has been classified on the basis of demographic, behavioristic, geographic and psychometric.
This document discusses marketing control, which refers to controlling all marketing activities to ensure they proceed as planned. It outlines several key points:
1) Marketing control includes evaluating the overall marketing strategy through a marketing audit to assess performance against objectives.
2) Marketing control is important for maintaining balance across sales areas, products, costs and sales quotas. It allows corrective action if sales diverge from plans.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
