What is It
1. PRODUCT
Marketing strategy typically starts with the product. Marketers can’t plan a
distribution system or set a price if they don’t know exactly what the product will be
offered to the market.
Product refers to any goods or services that are produced to meet the
consumers’ wants, tastes and preferences. An example of goods includes tires, MP3
players, clothing and etc. Goods can be categorized into business goods or
consumer goods. A buyer of consumer goods may not have thorough knowledge of
the goods he buys and uses. An example of services includes hair salons and
accounting firms. Services can be divided into consumer services, such as hair
styling or professional services, such as engineering and accounting.
2. PLACE
Place represents the location where the buyer and seller exchange goods or
services. It is also called as the distribution channel. It can include any physical store
as well as virtual stores or online shops on the Internet.

Channel 1 contains two stages between producer and consumer - a wholesaler and
a retailer. A wholesaler typically buys and stores large quantities of several
producers' goods and then breaks into bulk deliveries to supply retailers with smaller
quantities. For small retailers with limited order quantities, the use of wholesalers
makes economic sense.
3. PRICE
The price is a serious component of the marketing mix. What do you think is the
meaning of a Price?
In the narrowest sense, price is the value of money in exchange for a product
or service. Generally speaking, the price is the amount or value that a customer
gives up to enjoy the benefits of having or using a product or service. One example
of a pricing strategy is the penetration pricing. It is when the price charged for
products and services is set artificially low in order to gain market share. Once this is
attained, the price can be higher than before. For example, if you are going to open a

Beauty Salon, you need to set your prices lower than those of your competitors so
that you can penetrate the market. If you already have a good number of market
share then you can slowly increase your price.
4. PROMOTION
5. PEOPLE
Your team, a staff that makes it happen for you, your audience, and your
advertisers are the people in marketing. This consists of each person who is involved
in the product or service whether directly or indirectly.
People are the ultimate marketing strategy. They sell and push the product.
People are one of the most important elements of the marketing mix today. This is
because of the remarkable rise of the services industry. Products are being sold
through retail channels today. If the retail channels are not handled with the right
people, the product will not be sold. Services must be first class nowadays. The
people rendering the service must be competent and skilled enough so that that the
clients will patronize your service.
Therefore, the right people are essential in marketing mix in the current
marketing scenario.
6. PACKAGING
Lesson
Develop a Brand Name
2
Experts believe that a good brand can result in better loyalty for its customers,
a better corporate image and a more relevant identity.
1) Purpose
"Every brand makes a promise. But in a market in which customer confidence
is little and budgetary observance is great, it’s not just making a promise that
separates one brand from another, but having a significant purpose," (Allen
Adamson).

How can you define your business' purpose? According to Business Strategy
Insider, purpose can be viewed in two ways:
2) Consistency
The significant of consistency is to avoid things that don’t relate to or improve
your brand. Consistency aids to brand recognition, which fuels customer loyalty.
3) Emotion
There should be an emotional voice, whispering "Buy me". This means you
allow the customers have chance to feel that they are part of your brand.
You should find ways to connect more deeply and emotionally with your
customers. Make them feel part of the family and use emotion to build relationships
and promote brand loyalty.
4) Flexibility
Marketers should remain flexible to in this rapidly changing world. Consistency
targets at setting the standard for your brand, flexibility allows you to adjust and
differentiate your approach from your competition.
5) Employee Involvement
It is equally important for your employees to be well versed in how they
communicate with customers and represent the brand of your product

6) Loyalty
Loyalty is an important part of brand strategy. At the end of the day, the
emphasis on a positive relationship between you and your existing customers sets
the tone for what potential customers can expect from doing business with you.
7) Competitive Awareness
Do not be frightened of competition. Take it as a challenge to improve your
branding strategy and craft a better value in your brand.
