  2. Goals • Total Product Offer • Consumer And Industrial Goods • Functions Of Packaging • Describe The Differences Between: • Brand • Brand Name • Trademark • Brand Equity • Brand Loyalty • Brand Manager • New Product Development Process • Product Life Cycle • Pricing Objectives And Strategies • Nonpricing Strategies

  3. Value • Good quality at a fair price • When customers calculate the value of a product, they look at the benefit and then subtract the cost to see if the benefits exceed the cost • Value = Benefits – Costs • If Benefits > Costs, Then: Value, Otherwise: Not Value • Why would someone buy Milk at 7-11 that cost $3.99 when it is $2.50 at Safeway? • Best value includes factors such as price, benefits sought, service they receive, and more

  4. Better Products and Services • With global competition, companies try to avoid market share loss by continuing to design and promote better products • To satisfy customers, marketers must: • Learn to listen to customers better than they do now • Adapt to constantly changing market demands • This means: listen to customers, make what they want • Example of listening: • Product: Fast food restaurants offer salads • Service: Fast food restaurants accept credit cards • Continually developing new products is a key activity for businesses around the globe

  5. Better Products and Services (Economist meg, Oct 11, 2007) • Lego listened to customers (and others) when they designed Lego-Mindstorms • GM launched OnStar, a mobile-information system meant only to provide safety and emergency services for drivers • But customers wanted it to do more: • See if car is working properly • Open the doors for a driver who accidentally locks the keys inside • Locate the nearest pizza place

  6. Total Product Offer or Value Package • Everything that consumers evaluate when deciding whether to buy something • From a strategic marketing point of view, total product offer is more than just the product or service

  7. Total Product Offer:Milk at 7-11 = $3.99 or Milk at Safeway = $2.50

  8. Products at a Business • Product Mix • The combination of product lines offered by a manufacturer • Product Line • A group of products that are physically similar or are intended for a similar market • More on Products: http://pgdba.blogspot.com/2008/05/product-mix-product-line.html
