What is marketed Marketers market 10 main types of entities: goods, services, events, experiences, persons, places, properties, organizations, information, and ideas
Who Markets A marketer is someone who seeks a response, attention , a purchase, a vote, a donation—from another party, called the prospect . If two parties are seeking to sell something to each other, we call them both marketers.
Demands Marketers are skilled at stimulating demand for their products. They seek demand to meet the organization’s objectives. Eight demand states are possible: Negative demand —Consumers dislike the product and may even pay to avoid it. The product might be beneficial but the customer does not want it. (doctors, pathology) try to create awareness rather than promotion Nonexistent demand —Consumers may be unaware of or uninterested in the product.(family planning, insurance for people in rural areas) Latent demand — Customers are not satisfied with the existing products, you need to know what actually they want or in near future what would be the expectations of the customers from that product, Latent demand is, as the name suggests, a demand which the customer realizes later. Thus, while buying the product, he might not desire some features . But later on, he might think about those features and buy the product. (smart phone) always get feedback Reason of latent demand: not having enough money; lack of availability, lack of knowledge
4. Declining demand —Consumers begin to buy the product less frequently or not at all. 5. Irregular demand —Consumer purchases vary on a seasonal, monthly, weekly, daily, or even hourly basis. 6. Full demand —Consumers are adequately buying all products put into the marketplace. Full demand shows that the demand is meeting the supply potential of the company. The marketing challenge in this type of demand is to maintain the same level of interest in the product and the company.
7. Overfull demand —Overfull demands happen when the companies manufacturing capacity is limited but the demand is more than the supply. This can be observed in the cement industry occasionally. Many companies use de-marketing techniques to counter act overfull demands. This is because if the company keeps marketing, but it is not able to supply the material, then the company might suffer badly in brand equity . 8. Unwholesome demand —Consumers may be attracted to products that have undesirable social consequences. So they unable to meet it.
Whom to market Traditionally, a market was a physical place where buyers and sellers gathered to buy and sell goods. Economists describe a market as a collection of buyers and sellers who transact over a particular product. Five basic economic markets and their connecting flows are shown in Figure . Manufacturers go to resource markets (raw material markets, labor markets, money markets) , buy resources and turn them into goods and services, and sell finished products to intermediaries , who sell them to consumers . Consumers sell their labor and receive money with which they pay for goods and services. The government collects tax revenues to buy goods from resource, manufacturer, and intermediary markets and uses these goods and services to provide public services. Each nation’s economy, and the global economy, consists of interacting sets of markets linked through exchange processes.

They view sellers as constituting the industry and buyers as constituting the market . Sellers and buyers are connected by four flows. Sellers send goods and services and communications such as ads and direct mail to the market; in return they receive money and information such as customer attitudes and sales data.
