Understanding The Processes of Marketing


Definition of Marketing

Find Out What Customers Want and Give It to Them - Tim Cohn Peter Drucker's Definition of Marketing:"Marketing and innovation are the two chief functions of business. You get paid for creating a customer, which is marketing. And you get paid for creating a new dimension of performance, which is innovation. Everything else is a cost center." A General Definition of Marketing: The act or process of buying and selling in a market. Another Marketing Definition: The commercial functions involved in transferring goods from producer to consumer. Process Related Definition: The Traditional 4P and Customer Services Marketing Is A Strategy. Strategy Is Not Just A Goal but A Guided Direction. Strategy Can Only Succeed with A Plan - Al Ries and Jack Trout Marketing Is Like A War. The Larger the Army and the More Supply, the Greater the Advantage to Win the War Unless Someone Uses A Brilliant Tactic to Win A Crucial Battle And Then Win the War. Finding the Right Tactic Is The Only Alternative A Cash Scarce Business Can Do To Fight A Marketing War - Ifay Chang

Telemarketing (Cold Call) and Direct Marketing (Spam Mail)


Telemarketing (Cold Calls)

Characteristics

Limited Market Analysis and People Knowledge (Area Code) More Sales Oriented Than Promotion or Consulting (Little Value) Inexperienced Caller with Limited Product and Service Knowledge Random Selection of Numerous 15 Second Opening Lines Marketing Process Depersonalized Low Probability of Success ( P of Right Phone List x P of Right Person Answering Call x P of the Right Time to Call x P of Matched Interest in Product and Services = Small Number, Ps ) Must Offer Immediate Value Like Sales Discount and Promotional Gifts Unable to Engage in Broad Based Promotion or Positioning Under Tremendous Time Pressure to Conclude Pitch and Lead to Transaction or Follow-Up Most of the Time Annoyed or Alienated the Big Number (1-Ps ), Gain One Customer by Killing One Hundred Prospects

Pitfalls

Telemarketing (Cold Call) and Direct Marketing (Spam Mail)


Telemarketing (Cold Calls)

Techniques (Skills) Recommended

Consultative Selling Instead of Product selling to Offer Value to Clients, Focus on Clients, Finding Needs Before Selling. Be Extremely Knowledgeable about Products and Related Questions Follow A Framework: Opening, Client needs, Product Info/Positioning of Ideas, Listen and Resolve Objections, Closing and Set Up Action or Follow-up Critical Skills: Presence, Relating, Questioning, Listening, Positioning, Checking Use Open-ended Questions Not Yes or No Questions Do Homework, Set up Objective, Concentrate (100%) on the Call Cold Call Is A Low Yield, Possibly Damaging, Marketing Method Telephone Is Still A useful Communication Device for Marketing and Sales but Need to Prime Prospects and Have the Right Real-time Environment, For Example, Online Web Browsing and Shopping Search for Value Offering Marketing Methods, More Discussion to Follow

Conclusions

Telemarketing (Cold Call) and Direct Marketing (Spam Mail)


Direct Marketing (Spam Mails)

Characteristics

Large List with Little Knowledge of People or Business Profile (Zip Code) Fixed Message or Canned Pitch Reply Not Accepted for Fear of Spam Backfire (Receives Million Returns) Evolving Into Email Newsletter Trying to Add Content Value Low Probability of Success ( P of Right Email List x P of Right Person Receiving Mail x P of Not Being Deleted x P of Matched Interest in Product and Services = A Very Small Number, Ps ) Can Not Offer Instant Contact When A Potential Customer Is Reached. No Way to Predict When Customer Will Contact Through What Means to Follow Up. Most of the Time the Email Is Deleted Creating A Bad Name among the Big Number (1-Ps )

Pitfalls

10

Telemarketing (Cold call) and Direct Marketing (Spam Mail)


Direct Marketing (Spam Mails) Techniques (Tips)

Use Personal Name and Meaningful Subject Title to Avoid Filter Use Automated Emailing Tool with Rich Library and Framing Function Imbed Interesting and Relevant Links (More Info Value) Develop and Use Opt-in Mailing List Per Product Category Use Credible Referrals and Short-to-the Point Writing Schedule Timely Follow-Up Calls or Appointments Client Only Desires Content with Significant Value Action and Follow Up Difficult to Arrange and Expect by Mail Hot Leads May Turn Cold Since Mail Is Not Real-time Interactive Should Explore Multimedia Information Rich Medium with Hyperlink if Possible, For Example, CD (Better Yet Mi-Card See Discussion Later)
