Marketing Strategy and Concepts

Elevate Your Impact: Mastering Marketing Strategies for Business Excellence

Marketing is an essential function of any business. It is not mere sales. It starts before production and helps you understand what you should produce depending on the market demand and condition. It will also answer how to create and what to produce and deliver. How to distribute and sell, how to take the message about your product to the target audiences, what should be your price, whether your customer is happy or not, and if they are not pleased with what you should do. These principles are true to you to sell yourself as a professional and even for non-profit organisations to reach their audiences and achieve the expected millage.

Marketing is not only the marketing department’s duty any more. It is everybody’s responsibility starting from the doorman to the production worker and chairman to accountant. Therefore this workshop is for everybody involved in the corporate world. Everybody must know how and why marketing strategies are formulated and their contribution to the success of such plans.

Programme Structure

Your marketing quest begins here! The programme in this specialisation lays the necessary groundwork for an overall successful marketing strategy. It is separated into two sections: Market Research and Consumer Behaviour.

Marketing is the activity, set of institutions, and processes for creating, communicating, delivering, and exchanging offerings that have value for customers, clients, partners and society at large. Also included in the definition are all of the activities that effectively help businesses reach their target market.

It is essential to understand markets and sub-markets (and the firm’s product-market definition) at the starting point of the market segmentation process because it is common to ‘segment’ a market based on products rather than segmenting consumer group.

Product/Service management is a marketing function that involves obtaining, developing, maintaining, and improving a product or service mix in response to market opportunities.

Distribution pricing is the price point you, as the business owner, chooses to extend to vendors who will then distribute your products. The price is commonly a percentage discount off of your retail price. The concession gives the distributor room to profit from sales of the product.

Trade Promotion Management (TPM) typically refers to software applications that assist companies in managing their complex trade promotion activity.

Over half of the world’s populations now use the internet; over a third uses social media. With the increasing influence of globalisation, we can see why it is becoming increasingly important to advertise on as many forms of online platforms as possible. Since 1990 this market has been evolving exponentially, just as technology has. We will continue to change, and we will equip you with the necessary skills to adapt to this ever-changing aspect of marketing.

Marketing Mix Fundamentals prepares you for arguably the most critical stage of bringing your product to market – how and where are you going to market it? It sets out a detailed introduction to the four P’s of Marketing (Product, Pricing, Place and Promotion). This programme enables you to analyse your product and service strategically.
