Value-the value or benefits the customers gain from
using the product versus the cost of obtaining the
product.
Satisfaction-Based on a comparison of
performance and expectations.
Performance >Expectations => Satisfaction
Performance < Expectations => Dissatisfaction
Customer Value and Satisfaction
Dependent on the product’s perceived performance
relative to a buyer’s expectations.
Care must be taken when setting expectations:
If performance is lowerthan expectations, satisfaction is
low.
If performance is higherthan expectations, satisfaction is
high.
Customer satisfaction often leads to consumer loyalty.
Some firms seek to DELIGHT customers by exceeding
expectations.

ensure a successful marketing strategy:

Marketing Mix with 4C’s
The 4Cs marketing model was
developed by Robert F. Lauterborn in
1990. It is a modification of the 4Ps
model. It is not a basic part of
themarketing mix definition, but
rather an extension.
Here are the components of this marketing model:
Cost–According to Lauterborn, price is not the only cost incurred when
purchasing a product. Cost of conscience or opportunity cost is also part of the
cost of product ownership.
Consumer Wants and Needs–A company should only sell a product that
addresses consumer demand. So, marketers and business researchers should
carefully study the consumer wants and needs.
Communication–According to Lauterborn, “promotion” is manipulative while
communication is “cooperative”. Marketers should aim to create an open dialogue
with potential clients based on their needs and wants.
Convenience–The product should be readily available to the consumers.
Marketers should strategically place the products in several visible distribution
points.
Convenience goods-Inexpensive products that require little time and
effort on the purchase decisions and are purchased regularly.
Staple goods-Used often/regularly and are kept on hand. Examples:
bread, toilet paper
Impulse goods-Unplanned purchases. Examples: magazine or candy in
a grocery store check-out aisle
Emergency goods-Purchased to satisfy an immediate need. Example:
Medicine purchased on the way to a sporting event to sooth a headache.
