Step 1 market process: understand the marketplace and customer needs

Market definition
= described as the various groupings of customers

1. focus on fundamental customer needs
2. defined in value (turnover) or volume (units, kg,l)
3. geographic definition

1 focus on fundamental customer needs
Consumer markets:
All individuals and households who buy or acquire goods and services for
personal consumption.

Business markets:
All organisations that buy goods and services to use in the production of other
products and services or for the purpose of reselling or renting them to others
at a profit.

- Business-to-consumer (B2C) market
= number of individuals or number of households

, - Business-to-business (B2B) market
= number of companies

2 defined in value (turnover) or volume (units,kg,l)

Market share= a percentage of total sales (value or volume) in a market
captured by a brand, product or company.

3 geographic definition



Step 2 market process: design customer driven market strategy
(segmentation, targeting, differentiation, positioning)

Which customers and how to create value to them -> marketing programme
(marketing mix)

4 steps in designing a customer driven marketing strategy
Who? Customers segments
What? Value proposition

Segmentation
Divide the total market into smaller segments

Targeting
Select the segment or segments to enter

Differentiation
Differentiate the market offering to create superior customer value

Positioning
Position the market offering in the minds of target customers

,Reasons and benefits of a customer driven marketing strategy
• You make efficient use of resources
• Your marketing mix is targeted
• Your customer is fully satisfied
• Your competitors are outperformed
• Your company makes more profit

WHO? Customers segments
1 marketing segmentation
= involves dividing large, heterogeneous markets into smaller segments that
can be reached more efficiently and effectively with products and services that
match their unique needs.

Major variables for segmenting consumer markets:

Geographic Dividing the market into different geographical units such as
nations, regions, states, counties, cities or neighbourhoods , population desity,
climate

Demographic Dividing the market into groups based on variables such as age,
gender, family size, family life cycle, income, occupation, education, religion,
race, generation and nationality

Psychographic Dividing the market into groups based on social class,
personality characteristics and lifestyle

Behavioral Dividing the market into groups based on their knowledge,
attitudes, uses or responses to a product (occasions, user status, usage rates,
loyalty status)
-occasions (regular occasion, special occasion, season), user status (non-users,
potential users, first time users and regular users) and usage rate
(light/medium/heavy users), loyalty status (none, medium, strong, absolute)
-> occasion segmentation= dividing market into segments according to
occasions when buyers get the idea to buy, actually make the purchase or use
the purchased item.
-> benefit segmentation= dividing the market into segments according to the
different benefits that consumers seek from the product.

To be useful market segmentations must be: measurable, accessible,
substantial, differentiable, actionable.

, 2 marketing targeting
• Market targeting involves evaluating the various segments identified during
the segmentation process and deciding how many and which segments can be
served best.

Evaluate segments on three factors:
• Segment size and growth
• Segment structural attractiveness of the industry
• Company objectives and resources: fit or not, skills & resources.

Target market is the set of buyers who share common needs or characteristics
that the company decides to serve
