Key Drivers of Marketing Strategies
“The purpose of business is to create and keep a customer.”-Peter Drucker

Marketing and Customer value
Marketing involves satisfying customer’s needs and wants. The task of any business is to deliver customer value at a profit while being socially responsible. In a hypercompetitive (too competitive) economy with increasingly rational (sensible) buyers faced with abundant choices, a company can win only by fine-tuning the value delivery process and choosing, providing, and communicating superior value.

The value delivery process
The traditional view of marketing is that the firm makes something and then sells it. In this view, marketing takes place in the second half of the process. Companies that subscribe to this view have the best chance of succeeding in economies marked by goods shortages where consumers are not fussy about quality, features or style.

This traditional view of the business process, however, will not work in economies where people face abundant choices. There, the “mass market” is actually splintering (breaking) into numerous micro markets, each with its own wants, perceptions, preferences, and buying criteria. The smart competitor must design and deliver offerings for well-defined target markets. This realization inspired a new view of business processes that places marketing at the beginning of planning.

VALUE CREATION & DELIVERY SEQUENCE
![Page 8: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Instead of emphasizing making and selling, companies now see themselves as part of a value delivery process.
The value creation and delivery sequence can be divided into three phases. The first phase, choosing the value, represents the “homework” marketing must do before any product exists. The marketing staff must segment the market, select the appropriate market target, and develop the offering’s value positioning. The formula “segmentation, targeting, positioning (STP)” is the essence of strategic marketing.
![Page 9: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Once the business unit has chosen the value, the second phase is providing the value. Marketing must determine specific product features, prices, and distribution.
![Page 10: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The task in the third phase is communicating the value by utilizing the sales force, sales promotion, advertising, and other communication tools to announce and promote the product. Each of these value phases has cost implications (significance). It is also the case that the value delivery process begins before there is a product and continues while it is being developed and after it becomes available.
![Page 11: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
London Business school’s Nirmalya Kumar has put forth a “ 3Vs” approach to marketing: (1) define the value segment or customers (and their needs); (2) define the Value proposition; and (3) define the value network that will deliver the promised service.
![Page 12: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Dartmouth’s Frederick Webster views marketing in terms of (1) value-defining processes such as market research and company self-analysis; (2) value-developing processes including new-product development, sourcing strategy, and vendor selection; and (3) value-delivering processes such as advertising and managing distribution.
![Page 13: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
THE VALUE CHAIN
Michael porter of Harvard has proposed the Value chain as a tool for identifying ways to create more customer value.
Tool for identifying ways to create more customer value
Firm - Synthesis of activities performed to design, produce, market, deliver and support its products
Identifies 9 strategically relevant activities that create value and cost
5 Primary Activities 4 Secondary Activities

The primary activities are inbound logistics or bringing
materials into the business; operations or converting them into final
products; outbound logistics or shipping out final
products; marketing them, which includes sales;
and servicing them.
![Page 16: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The support activities- procurement, technology development, human resource management, and firm infrastructure- are handled in specialized departments. The firm’s infrastructure covers the costs of general management, planning, finance, accounting, legal, and government affairs.
![Page 17: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The firm’s task is to examine its costs and performance in each value-creating activity and to look for ways to improve it. Managers should estimate their competitors costs and performances as benchmarks against which to compare their own costs and performance. And they should go further and study the “best of class” practices of the world’s best companies.
![Page 18: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
For example, Wal-Mart has superior strength in its stock replenishment(fill up) process. As Wal-Mart stores sell their goods, sales information flows via computer not only to Wal-Mart’s headquarters, but also to Wal-Mart’s suppliers, who ship replacement merchandise to the stores almost at the rate it moves off the shelf. The idea is not to manage stocks of goods, but flows of goods, and Wal-Mart has turned over this responsibility to its leading vendors in a system known as vendor-managed inventories (VMI).

CORE COMPETENCIES
THREE DISTINCT CHARACTERISTICS:
SOURCE OF COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE WIDE APPLICATION DIFFICULT TO IMITATE
![Page 21: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Traditionally, companies’ owned and controlled most of the resources that entered their businesses – labour power, materials, machines, information and energy – but this situation is changing.
Many companies today outsource less-critical resources if they can obtain better quality or lower cost. India has developed a reputation as a country that can provide ample outsourcing support.
![Page 22: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The key, then, is to own and nurture the resources and competencies that make up the essence of the business.
Nike, for example. Does not manufacture its shoes, because certain Asian manufacturers are more competent in this task; instead Nike nurtures its superiority in shoe design and merchandising, its two core competencies.

A core competency has three characteristics: (1) it is source of competitive advantage in that it makes a significant contribution to perceived customer benefits.
(2) It has applications in a wide variety of markets.
(3) it is difficult for competitors to imitate.

HOLISTIC MARKETING (cont.)
Integration of Value Exploration, Value Creation and Value Delivery for long tern mutually satisfying relationships & co- prosperity with key stake- holders.
Key Activities: Value Exploration Value Creation Value Delivery

VALUE EXPLORATION: Finding new value opportunities is a matter of understanding the relationships among three spaces: (1) the customer’s cognitive (knowing)space;
The customer’s cognitive space reflects existing and latent(clear or obvious) needs and includes dimensions such as the need for participation, stability, freedom, and change.
![Page 32: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
2) the company’s competence space;
We can describe the company’s competency space in terms of breadth-broad versus focused scope of business; and depth-physical versus knowledge- based capabilities.
![Page 33: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
3) the collaborator’s resource space. The collaborators’ resource space
includes horizontal partnerships, with partners chosen for their ability to exploit related market opportunities, and vertical partnerships, with partners who can serve the firm’s value creation
![Page 34: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
VALUE CREATION: Value-creation skills for marketers include identifying new customer benefits from the customer’s view; utilizing core competencies from its business domain; and selecting and managing business partners from its collaborative networks. To create new customer benefits, marketers must understand what the customer thinks about, wants, does, and worries about and observe whom customers admire and interact with, and who influences them.
![Page 35: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
VALUE DELVERY: Delivering value often means making substantial(large in amount) investments in infrastructure and capabilities. The company must become proficient(expert) at customer relationship management, internal resource management, and business partnerships management.
![Page 36: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Customer relationship management allows the company to discover who its customers are, how they behave, and what they need or want. It also enables the company to respond appropriately, coherently(consistently), and quickly to different customer opportunities.
![Page 37: 38994927 Key Drivers of Marketing Strategy](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081412/54400fbbafaf9f80338b4580/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
"…. dissatisfied customers would tell between 7-10 people while a satisfied customer would recommend a company to 3-4 of their friends". – PIMS
If you make customers unhappy in the physical world, they might each tell 6 friends. If you make customers unhappy on the Internet, they can each tell 6,000 friends.JEFF BEZOS
