Customer Needs, Wants, and Demands

Needs States of felt deprivation

• Physical—food, clothing, warmth, safety
• Social—belonging and affection
• Individual—knowledge and self-expression

Wants

and individual personality
Understanding the Marketplace
and Customer Needs
Customer Needs, Wants, and Demands

Demands
• Human wants backed by buying power 。
Market Offerings-Products, Wants,
and Demands
Market offerings are some combination of
products, services, information, or experiences
offered to a market to satisfy a need or a want.

Marketing myopia is focusing only on existing

wants and losing sight of underlying consumer
needs.
Customer Value and Satisfaction
Expectations

• From expectations about the value and satisfaction that
various market offerings
• Will deliver and buy accordingly.

• Arrows represent relationships that must be developed and
managed to create customers value and profitable customer
relationships.
Designing a Customer-Driven
Marketing Strategy
We define marketing management is the art and
science of choosing target markets and building
profitable relationships with them.

Two important questions:

What customers will we serve
(what’s our target market)?

How can we serve these

customers best (what’s our
value proposition)?
Selecting Customers to Serve
Market segmentation refers to dividing the
markets into segments of customers.
Target marketing refers to which segments to go
after.
Choosing a Value Proposition
A brand’s value proposition is the set of benefits
or values it promises to deliver to consumers to
satisfy their needs.

Marketing Management
Orientations
• The selling concept takes an inside-out view that focuses on
existing products and heavy selling. The aim is to sell what the
company makes rather than making what the customer wants.
• The marketing concept takes an outside-in view that focuses on
satisfying customer needs as a path to profits. As South-west
Airlines’ colorful founder puts it, “We don’t have a marketing
department, we have a customer department.”
Preparing an Integrated
Marketing Plan and Program
The marketing mix is the set of tools (four Ps) the
firm uses to implement its marketing strategy. It
includes product, price, promotion, and place.

The firm must blend each marketing mix tool

into a comprehensive integrated
P l ac e marketing
program that communicates and delivers the
intended value to chosen customers.
Building Customer Relationships
Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
In this broader sense, customer relationship
management is the overall process of building
and maintaining profitable customer relationships
by delivering superior customer value and
satisfaction.
Relationship Building Blocks:
Customer Value and Satisfaction
A customer buys from the firm that offers the
highest customer-perceived value—the
customer’s evaluation of the difference between
all the benefits and all the costs of a market
offering relative to those of competing offers.
Customer satisfaction depends on the product’s
perceived performance relative to a buyer’s
expectations. If the product’s performance falls
short of expectations, the customer is dissatisfied.
Customer Relationship Levels and
Tools
Companies can build customer relationships at
many levels, depending on the nature of the
target market.
 Many companies offer frequency marketing
programs that reward customers who buy
frequently or in large amounts.
Other companies sponsor club marketing
programs that offer members special benefits and
create member communities.
The Changing Nature of Customer
Relationships
Today’s companies are building deeper, more
direct, and lasting relationships with more
carefully selected customers.
Relating with More Carefully
Selected Customers
Today, most marketers realize that they don’t
want relationships with every customers. Instead,
they target fewer, more profitable customers.
Relating More Deeply and
Interactively
 Relating more deeply and interactively by incorporating
more interactive two way relationships through blogs,
Websites, online communities and social networks
 Today’s consumers have more information about brands
than ever before, and they have a wealth of platforms for
airing and sharing their brand views with other
consumers. Thus, the marketing world is now embracing
not only customer relationship management, but also
customer-managed relationships.
 A growing part of the new customer dialogue is
consumer-generated marketing, by which consumers
themselves are playing a bigger role in shaping their own
brand experiences and those of others.
Partner relationship management
In addition to being good at customer
relationship management, marketers must also be
good at partner relationship management—
working closely with others inside and outside
the company to jointly bring more value to
customers.
Partner relationship management
In today’s more connected world, every
functional area in the organization can interact
with customers. The new thinking is that—no
matter what your job is in a company—you must
understand marketing and be customer focused.
Partner relationship management
The supply chain describes a longer channel,
stretching from raw materials to components to
final products that are carried to final buyers.
Through supply chain management, companies
today are strengthening their connections with
partners all along the supply chain.
Capturing Value from Customers

The final step involves capturing value in return

in the form of sales, market share, and profits. By
creating superior customer value, the firm creates
highly satisfied customers who stay loyal and
buy more. This, in return, means greater long-run
returns for the firm.
Creating Customer Loyalty and
Retention
Customer lifetime value is the value of the
entire stream of purchases that the customer
would make over a lifetime of patronage
Growing Share of Customer
Beyond simply retaining good customers to capture
customer lifetime value, good customer
relationship management can help marketers
increase their share of customer—the share they
get of the customer’s purchasing in their product
categories.
Building Customer Equity
Customer equity is the total combined customer
lifetime values of all of the company’s current
and potential customers.
