SEGMENTATION, TARGETING & POSITIONING Marketer can rarely satisfy every one in the
market.
Therefore marketers start by dividing the market into segments.
After segmentation marketers decide that which market is the target market for them.
And finally the correct positioning is done to convert the target market into customers.
MARKET PLACE, MARKET SPACE AND META MARKET Market Place is physical as when one goes
shopping in a store. Market Space is digital as when one goes
for shopping on the internet. Meta Market is a cluster of complementary
products and services that are closely related in the minds of consumer but are spread across a diverse set of industries.For eg: Maruti Suzuki India, through their website, helps buyers and sellers of second hand cars to sell, buy or exchange Maruti certified used vehicles.
MARKETER AND PROSPECTS
A marketer is someone seeking response (attention, a purchase, a vote, a donation ) from another party.
A prospects is a someone who gives response to marketer.
NEEDS, WANTS AND DEMANDS
Needs:- Needs are the basic human requirements. People need air, food, water, clothing and shelter to survive.
Wants:- These needs become wants when they are directed to specific objects which might satisfy the need. For eg. An American wants bread when he feels hungry while and Indian wants Chapati.
Demand:- Demands are wants fro specific products backed by an ability to buy.
BRAND AND OFFERING
An Offering is a set of benefits that companies offer to customer to satisfy their needs.
A brand is an offering from a known source. Eg. Mc Donald's carries many associations in people’s mind that make up a brand image.
VALUE AND SATISFACTION
The offering will be successful if it delivers value and satisfaction.
Value reflects the sum of the perceived tangible and intangible benefits and cost to customer. It is the combination of quality, service and price. Value increase with quality and services and decrease with price.
Satisfaction reflects to person’s judgment of a product perceived performance in relationship to expectations. If the performance falls short of expectation the customer is dissatisfied and vice-versa.
