Marketing Management OrientationsManagement Orientations
•Product Concept
–The product philosophy holds that the organization knows
its product better than anyone or any organization. The
company knows what will work in designing and producing
the product and what will not work. This confidence in their
ability is not a radical concept, but the confidence leads to
the consumer being overlooked.
–Dominant era: Prior to the Industrial Revolution and
continued to the 1920s

18. 18

•Production Concept
Demand for a product is greater than
supply.
–To increase profit, focus on production efficiencies
knowing all output can be sold. Also useful concept
when increasing production raises economies of scale
etc. to reduce price. Henry Ford, "Doesn't matter what
color car you want, as long as it is black."...A typical
quote during the production era.
–Dominant era: From mid C19th to early C20th,
industrial revolution etc.

•Selling Concept
Demand for a product is equal to supply.

advertising.
- Useful for unsought goods, i.e., encyclopedias, funeral plots. Political
candidates, selling important, not post consumer satisfaction.
-Dominant era: 1920's to Mid 1930's WWII to early 1950's

Supply for a product is greater than
demand, creating intense competition
among suppliers.

produces what the consumer wants, then sells the consumer
what it wants.

Marketing Concept
•LL Bean 1912, founded on the marketing concept, in his first circular:
"I do not consider a sale complete until goods are worn out and the
customer still satisfied. We will thank anyone to return goods that are
not perfectly satisfactory...Above all things we wish to avoid having a
dissatisfied customer."

22. 22
Marketing Concept
•To illustrate the marketing era/concept Peter Drucker, in
1954 said:
“if we want to know what business is we must first start
with its purpose...There is only one valid definition of
business purpose: to create a customer. What business
thinks it produces is not of first importance-especially not
to the future of the business or to its success. What the
customer thinks he/she is buying, what he/she considers
"value" is decisive-it determines what a business is, what it
produces, and whether it will prosper."
-Peter Drucker, The Practice of Management, 1954, P.37

23. 23
Marketing Concept
•John B McKitterick, President of General Electric, 1957, addressing
the AMA said:

business."

•What era are we in now?
We are still essentially in the marketing era, since that is the dominant
concept, but increasing pressure is being put on to companies to adopt the
societal concept.
•Importance of the marketing concept
According to the Customer Service Institute, it costs as much as five times
as much to acquire a new customer than it does to service an existing one.
Customers tell twice as many people about a bad experience over a good
one.
According to the American Marketing Association (AMA), for an average
company, 65% of its business comes from its presently satisfied customers.
