INTRODUCTION
Marketing
Marketing deals with identifying and meeting human and social needs. One of the shortest definitions
of marketing is ''meeting needs profitably''. Chartered Institute of Marketing defined marketing as ''the
process of identifying, satisfying and anticipating consumer needs profitably.'' All the marketing
process focuses on what consumers need, and then to satisfy that need profitably. The ather of
Marketing, !hilip "otler defined marketing as, '' the process of planning and e#ecuting the conception
of pricing, promotion and distribution of goods, ser$ices and ideas in order to create demand, that will
satisfy the organi%ational and indi$idual needs'' Marketing is the process by which companies create
customer interest in goods or ser$ices. It generates the strategy that underlines sales techni&ues,
business communication and business de$elopments. It is an integrated process through whichcompanies build strong customer relationships and create $alue for their customers and for
themsel$es.
Promotion
The specification of fi$e elements creates a promotional mi# or promotional plan. These elements are personal selling, ad$ertising, sales promotion, direct marketing, and publicity. A promotional mi#specifies how much attention to pay to each of the fi$e subcategories, and how much money to budgetfor each. A promotional plan can ha$e a wide range of obecti$es, including( sales increases, new
product acceptance, creation of brand e&uity, positioning, competiti$e retaliations, or creation of a corporate image. undamentally, howe$er there are three basic obecti$es of promotion. These are(
). To present information to consumers as well as others.
*. To increase demand.
+. To differentiate a product.
There are different ways to promote a product in different areas of media. !romoters use internetad$ertisement, special e$ents, endorsements, and newspapers to ad$ertise their product. Many timeswith the purchase of a product there is an incenti$e like discounts, free items, or a contest. This is toincrease the sales of a gi$en product.

Ad$ertising is any paid form of nonpersonal presentation and promotion of ideas, goods , or ser$ices
by an identified sponsor. Ad$ertisers include not only business firms, but also museums, charitable
organi%ations, and go$ernment agencies that direct messages to target public. Ad$ertising is a form of
direct persuasi$e communication to the target market which attempts to stimulate demand for the
generic product category, promotes the key benefits or use of indi$idual brands, or influences the
consumer psychologically in such a manner that it may encourage sales at some future point of time.
Ad$ertising not only proects the brand into the perspecti$e $ision of the consumer but is, more
importantly, the instruments that imparts a distinct personality and image to a brand. Ads are cost
effecti$e way to disseminate messages, whether to build brand preference for CocaCola or to educate
people to a$oid hard drugs.
Sales Promotion
Any acti$ity made to boost up the sales, is called -ales !romotion. It is a key ingredient in marketing
campaigns, consists of a di$erse collection of incenti$e tools, mostly short term, designed to stimulate
&uicker or greater purchase of particular products or ser$ices by consumers or the trade. hereas
Ad$ertising offers a reason to buy, sales promotion offers a incenti$e to buy. -ales !romotion includes
tools for consumer promotion /-amples, coupons, cash refund offers, price off, premiums, pri%es,
patronage awards, free trails, warranties, tieinpromotions, pointofpurchase displays, and
demonstrations0.
Compared to any other element of the promotional mi#, sales promotion is more action oriented. It
helps in stimulating the customers to buy a product. Increasing concern for $alue for money among
customers has brought sales promotion to the centre stage, as customer ha$e become more responsi$e to
promotional offers, discount1gift coupons and point of purchase displays.

Meaning o7 Marketing
Marketing is defined by the AMA as Kthe acti$ity, set of institutions, and processes for creating,
communicating, deli$ering, and e#changing offerings that ha$e $alue for customers, clients, partners,
and society at large.K
It can also be defined as Kthe process by which companies create $alue for customers and build strong
customer relationships, in order to capture $alue from customers in returnK.
This replaces the pre$ious definition, which still appears in the AMA's dictionary( Kan organi%ational
function and a set of processes for creating, communicating, and deli$ering $alue to customers and for
managing customer relationships in ways that benefit the organi%ation and its stakeholders.K It generatesthe strategy that underlies sales techni&ues, business communication, and business de$elopments. It is
an integrated process through which companies build strong customer relationships and create $alue for
their customers and for themsel$es.
Marketing is used to identify the customer, satisfy the customer, and keep the customer. ith the
customer as the focus of its acti$ities, marketing management is one of the maor components
of business management. Marketing e$ol$ed to meet the stasis in de$eloping new markets caused
by mature markets and o$ercapacities in the last *+ centuries. The adoption of marketing strategies
re&uires businesses to shift their focus from production to the percei$ed needs and wants of their
customers as the means of staying profitable. The term marketing concept holds that achie$ing
organi%ational goals depends on knowing the needs and wants of target markets and deli$ering the
desired satisfactions. It proposes that in order to satisfy its organi%ational obecti$es, an organi%ation
should anticipate the needs and wants of consumers and satisfy these more effecti$ely than competitors.
The term de$eloped from an original meaning which referred literally to going to a market to buy or sell
goods or ser$ices. -een from a systems point of $iew, sales process engineering marketing is "a set of
processes that are interconnected and interdependent with other functions, whose methods can be
improved using a variety of relatively new approaches."

2$olution of marketing

product or ser$ice, essentially concerning consumers and endusers. Throughout history, marketing has

4ecent approaches in marketing include relationship marketing with focus on the customer, business

advertising or affiliate marketing . It attempts to perfect the segmentation strategy used in traditional
marketing. It targets its audience more precisely, and is sometimes called personali%ed marketing or

If any of the F!s were problematic or were not in the marketing factor of the business, the businesscould be in trouble and so other companies may appear in the surroundings of the company, so the
consumer demand on its products will decrease. 7owe$er, in recent years ser$ice marketing has
widened the domains to be considered, contributing to the :!'s of marketing in total. The other +!'s of
ser$ice marketing are( process, physical en$ironment and people.
-ome &ualifications or ca$eats for customer focus e#ist. They do not in$alidate or contradict the
principle of customer focusU rather, they simply add e#tra dimensions of awareness and caution to it.
The work of Christensen and colleagues on disrupti$e technology has produced a theoretical framework
that e#plains the failure of firms not because they were technologically inept /often &uite the opposite0, but because the $alue networks in which they profitably operated included customers who could not
$alue a disrupti$e inno$ation at the time and capability state of its emergence and thus acti$ely
dissuaded the firms from de$eloping it. The lessons drawn from this work include(
Taking customer focus with a grain of salt, treating it as only a subset of one's corporate strategy
rather than the sole dri$ing factor. This means looking beyond currentstate customer focus to
predict what customers will be demanding some years in the future, e$en if they themsel$es
discount the prediction.
!ursuing new markets /thus new $alue networks0 when they are still in a commercially inferior
or unattracti$e state, simply because their potential to grow and intersect with established markets
and $alue networks looks like a likely bet. This may in$ol$e buying stakes in the stock of smaller
firms, ac&uiring them outright, or incubating small, financially distinct units within one's
organi%ation to compete against them.
Other ca$eats of customer focus are(
The e#tent to which what customers say they want does not match their purchasing decisions.
Thus sur$eys of customers might claim that :
-
8/15/2019 Sales promotion of central shopping mall
44/88
69
The e#tent to which customers are currently ignorant of what one might argue they should want
Vwhich is dicey because whether it can be acted upon affordably depends on whether or how soon
the customers will learn, or be con$inced, otherwise. IT hardware and software capabilities and
automobile features are e#amples. Customers who in ): said that they would not place any $alue
on internet browsing capability on a mobile phone, or 9Q better fuel efficiency in their $ehicle,
might say something different today, because the $alue proposition of those opportunities has
changed.
Organi9ational orientation
In this sense, a firm's marketing department is often seen as of prime importance within the functional
le$el of an organi%ation. Information from an organi%ation's marketing department would be used to
guide the actions of other departments within the firm. As an e#ample, a marketing department could
ascertain /$ia marketing research0 that consumers desired a new type of product, or a new usage for ane#isting product. ith this in mind, the marketing department would inform the 4 department to
create a prototype of a product1ser$ice based on consumers' new desires.
The production department would then start to manufacture the product, while the marketing
department would focus on the promotion, distribution, pricing, etc. of the product. Additionally, a
firm's finance department would be consulted, with respect to securing appropriate funding for the
de$elopment, production and promotion of the product. Interdepartmental conflicts may occur, should a
firm adhere to the marketing orientation. !roduction may oppose the installation, support and ser$icing
of new capital stock, which may be needed to manufacture a new product. inance may oppose the
re&uired capital e#penditure, since it could undermine a healthy cash flow for the organi%ation.
Herd behaviour
Herd behaviour in marketing is used to e#plain the dependencies of customers' mutual beha$iour. The
Economist reported a recent conference in 4ome on the subect of the simulation of adapti$e human
beha$iour. It shared mechanisms to increase impulse buying and get people Kto buy more by playing on
the herd instinct.K The basic idea is that people will buy more of products that are seen to be popular,and se$eral feedback mechanisms to get product popularity information to consumers are mentioned,
including smart card technology and the use of Tag technology. A Kswarmmo$esK model was
introduced by a lorida Institute of Technology researcher, which is appealing to supermarkets because
it can Kincrease sales without the need to gi$e people discounts.K Other recent studies on the Kpower of
social influenceK include an Kartificial music market in which some ),

Further orientations
An emerging area of study and practice concerns internal marketing , or how employees are
trained and managed to deli$er the brand in a way that positi$ely impacts the ac&uisition and
retention of customers, see also employer branding .
Diffusion of innovations research e#plores how and why people adopt new products, ser$ices,
and ideas.
ith consumers' eroding attention span and willingness to gi$e time to ad$ertising messages,
marketers are turning to forms of permission marketing such as branded content , custom media and
reality marketing .
Marketing research
Marketing research in$ol$es conducting research to support marketing acti$ities, and the statistical
interpretation of data into information. This information is then used by managers to plan marketing
acti$ities, gauge the nature of a firm's marketing en$ironment and attain information from suppliers.
Marketing researchers use statistical methods such as &uantitati$e research, research, hypothesis, Chi
s&uared tests, linear regression, correlations, fre&uency distributions, poisson distributions, binomial
distributions, etc. to interpret their findings and con$ert data into information. The marketing research
process spans a number of stages, including the definition of a problem, de$elopment of a research plan,
collection and interpretation of data and disseminating information formally in the form of a report. The
task of marketing research is to pro$ide management with rele$ant, accurate, reliable, $alid, and current
information.
A distinction should be made between marketing research and market research. Market research
pertains to research in a gi$en market. As an e#ample, a firm may conduct research in a target market,
after selecting a suitable market segment. In contrast, marketing research relates to all research
conducted within marketing. Thus, market research is a subset of marketing research.
Market segmentation
Market segmentation pertains to the di$ision of a market of consumers into persons with similar needs
and wants. or instance, "ellogg's cereals, rosties are marketed to children. Crunchy 3ut
Cornflakes are marketed to adults. 6oth goods denote two products which are marketed to two distinct
groups of persons, both with similar needs, traits, and wants.
Market segmentation allows for a better allocation of a firm's finite resources. A firm only possesses a
certain amount of resources. Accordingly, it must make choices /and incur the related costs0 in ser$icing
specific groups of consumers. In this way, the di$ersified tastes of contemporary estern consumers can
-

be ser$ed better. ith growing di$ersity in the tastes of modern consumers, firms are taking note of the
benefit of ser$icing a multiplicity of new markets.
Market segmentation can be defined in terms of the STP acronym,
meaning S egment , T arget and P osition
T2es o7 Market Resear43
Market research, as a subset aspect of marketing acti$ities, can be di$ided into the following parts(
!rimary research /also known as field research0, which in$ol$es the conduction and compilation
of research for a specific purpose.
-econdary research /also referred to as desk research0, initially conducted for one purpose, but
often used to support another purpose or end goal.
6y these definitions, an e#ample of primary research would be market research conducted into health
foods, which is used solely to ascertain the needs1wants of the target market for health foods. -econdary
research in this case would be research pertaining to health foods, but used by a firm wishing to de$elop
an unrelated product.
!rimary research is often e#pensi$e to prepare, collect and interpret from data to information.
3e$ertheless, while secondary research is relati$ely ine#pensi$e, it often can become outdated and
outmoded, gi$en that it is used for a purpose other than the one for which it was intended. !rimary
research can also be broken down into &uantitati$e research and &ualitati$e research, which, as the termssuggest, pertain to numerical and nonnumerical research methods and techni&ues, respecti$ely. The
appropriateness of each mode of research depends on whether data can be &uantified /&uantitati$e
research0, or whether subecti$e, nonnumeric or abstract concepts are re&uired to be studied /&ualitati$e
research0.
There also e#ist additional modes of marketing research, which are(
2#ploratory research, pertaining to research that in$estigates an assumption.
escripti$e research, which, as the term suggests, describes Kwhat isK.
!redicti$e research, meaning research conducted to predict a future occurrence.
Conclusi$e research, for the purpose of deri$ing a conclusion $ia a research process.

It is not enough for a business to ha$e good products sold at attracti$e prices. To generate sales and
profits, the benefits of products ha$e to be communicated to customers. In marketing, this is commonly
known as KpromotionK.
Promotion is all a8o0t 4omanies 4omm0ni4ating 6it3 40stomers%
A business' total marketing communications programme is called the Kpromotional mi#K and consists of
a blend of ad$ertising, personal selling, sales promotion and public relations tools. In this re$ision note,
we describe the four key elements of the promotional mi# in more detail. !romotion is an important part
of marketing mi# of a business enterprise. Once a product is de$eloped, its price is determined the ne#t
problem comes to its sale i.e., creating demand for the product. It re&uires promotional acti$ities. The
acti$ities are techni&ue which bring the special characteristics of the product and of the producer to the
knowledge of prospecti$e customers. !romotion is a process of communication in$ol$ing information,
persuasion, and influence. The term 'selling' is often used synonymously with promotion. 6ut promotion
is wider that selling. -elling is concerned only with the transfer of title in goods to the purchaser,
whereas promotion includes techni&ues stimulating demand. These techni&ues include ad$ertising,
salesmanship or personal selling and other methods of stimulation demand.
Ad$ertising and sales promotion techni&ues are indirect and nonpersonal whereas personal selling or
salesmanship is a direct and personal techni&ue. All these techni&ues, howe$er, should be integrated
with the marketing obecti$e of the enterprise. The salesmen can report about the different ad$ertising
and other promotional appeals as they are in close touch with the consumer public and market
conditions.
!romotion is essentially the sales efforts of a business enterprise and includes the function of informing,
persuading and influencing the purchase decision of the e#isting the prospecti$e consumers with the
obect of increasing sales $olume and profits. !romotion is the efforts of the seller to sell the product
effecti$ely. !romotion is the communication with the customers to pursue them to buy the product. It is
the duty of the marketing manager to choose the communication media and blend them into an effecti$e
promotion programme. These are more than one type of tools used to promote sales. The combination of
these tools with a $iew to maintain and create sales is known as promotion mi#. !romotion mi# is the
name gi$en to the combination of methods used in communicating with customers. There are four tools
of promotion mi# $i%. ad$ertisement, personal selling, publicity and sales promotion. These are called
elements of promotion mi#.
It is helpful to define the four main elements of the promotional mi# before considering their strengths
and limitations.
.1/ Advertising
Any paid form of nonpersonal communication of ideas or products in the Kprime mediaK( i.e. tele$ision,
newspapers, maga%ines, billboard posters, radio, cinema etc. Ad$ertising is intended to persuade and toinform. The two basic aspects of ad$ertising are the message /what you want your communication to
-
8/15/2019 Sales promotion of central shopping mall
48/88
69
say0 and the medium /how you get your message across0. In ad$ertising e#isting and prospecti$e
customers are communicated the message through impersonal media like radio, T.B., newspapers and
maga%ine. It in$ol$es transmission of standard message simultaneously to a large number of people. The
message transmitted is known as ad$ertising.
.&/ Personal Selling
Oral communication with potential buyers of a product with the intention of making a sale. The personal
selling may focus initially on de$eloping a relationship with the potential buyer, but will always
ultimately end with an attempt to Kclose the saleK. !ersonal selling is the process of assisting and
persuading the e#isting and prospecti$e buyer to buy the goods or ser$ices in person. It in$ol$es direct
and personal contact of the seller or his representati$e with the buyer.
.'/ Sales Promotion
!ro$iding incenti$es to customers or to the distribution channel to stimulate demand for a product. -ales
promotion consists of all acti$ities other than ad$ertising, personal selling and publicity, which help in
promoting sales of the product. -uch acti$ities are nonrepetiti$e and one time offers. According to
American Marketing Association, sales promotion include, Kthose marketing acti$ities other than
personal selling, ad$ertising and publicity that stimulate consumer purchasing and dealer effecti$eness,
such as point of purchase displays, shows and e#hibitions, demonstrations and $arious nonrecurring
selling efforts not in the ordinary routine.K
The main aim of sales promotion is to increase sales and profits of the firm but it is &uite different from personal selling and ad$ertising. In personal selling, customer is persuaded by a sales person face to
face. Ad$ertising is a nonpersonal mass communication media. -ales promotion, on the other hand, is a
nonrecurring and nonroutine method. Its main aim is to supplement and coordinate the personal selling
and ad$ertising. It is a supporting and facilitating element of promotional strategy. -ales promotion
bridges the gap of ad$ertising and personal selling.
.)/ P08li4it2
The communication of a product, brand or business by placing information about it in the media without
paying for the time or media space directly. otherwise known as Kpublic relationsK or !4. !ublicity is a
nonpersonal nonpaid stimulation of demand of the product or ser$ices or business unit by planning
commercially significant news about the ser$ices or business unit by planning commercially significant
news about in the print media or by obtaining a fa$ourable presentation of it upon radio, tele$ision or
stage.
