1. Core Goals
The basis of any
marketing strategy is its
goals.
Determine specific
goals.
Align the goals with the
target market and align
the 7Cs with the goals. Hasbro has embraced online marketing to reflect its core goals. To introduce this new brand called Hanazuki, it developed an entire
series that viewers can watch on YouTube. The Hanazuki page is
filled with animation, movement, and bright colors, encouraging
visitors to take their time exploring the different characters, watching
videos, downloading apps, and perhaps shopping too.

merchandise than Hasbro, Inc. with little concern for the brand itself.

3. Content
Monitor to ensure
relevancy.
Devise appropriate
keywords to improve
organic search.
Implement SEM and
paid search.The content of these messages must resonate with its target market, but
need not always showcase merchandise or services, as in the Facebook
post from the jewelry firm, Alex and Ani. The company is not showcasing its
jewelry per se, but rather providing a motivational quote that resonates with
young females, its primary target market.

Post purchase Customer Satisfaction
• Build realistic expectations, not too high and not too low.
• Demonstrate correct product use—improper usage can cause dissatisfaction.
• Stand behind the product or service by providing money-back guarantees and warranties.
• Encourage customer feedback, which cuts down on negative word of mouth and helps marketers adjust their offerings.
• Periodically make contact with customers and thank them for their support.
16
© McGraw Hill LLC
Post purchase Cognitive Dissonance
More likely for products that are:
• Expensive.
• Infrequently purchased.
• Do not work as intended.
• Associated with high levels
of risk.
Firms attempt to reduce
dissonance by reinforcing the
decision:
• Return policies.
• Thank-you letters.
• Congratulations letters.
• Tags on garments.

Post purchase Customer Loyalty
Marketers attempt to
solidify a loyal
relationship.
Firms use analytics
software and customer
relationship
management (CRM)
programs to acquire and
retain loyal customers.
Marketers, such as Amazon, owners of Whole Foods, collect customer
information for their CRM programs from their loyalty cards.

Post purchase Undesirable Consumer Behavior
Negative word of mouth
• Personal blogs, Twitter,
corporate websites.
Companies use listening
software to identify negative
word of mouth.
If a customer believes a
complaint will result in
positive action, negative
word of mouth is less likely.
Whirlpool posts good as well as bad comments on Twitter. It
believes that posting negative comments opens up
discussions and emphasizes the proactive measures the
company is taking to remedy service or product failures.

Exporting
Exporting means producing
goods in one country and
selling them in another.
This entry strategy requires
the least financial risk but
also allows for only a limited
return to the exporting firm.

Franchising
A franchising contract allows the
franchisee to operate a
business—a retail product or
service firm or a B2B provider—
using the name and business
format developed and supported
by the franchisor.
Many of the best-known retailers
in the United States are also
successful global franchisors,
including McDonald’s, Pizza Hut,
Starbucks, Domino’s Pizza, KFC,
and Holiday Inn.

Joint Venture
A joint venture is formed when a firm entering a market pools its resources with those of a local firm.
Ownership, control, and profits are shared.
The local partner offers the foreign entrant greater understanding of the market and access to resources such as vendors and real estate.

Direct Investment
Direct investment requires a
firm to maintain 100 percent
ownership of its plants,
operation facilities, and offices
in a foreign country, often
through the formation of wholly
owned subsidiaries.
Requires the highest level of
investment and exposes the
firm to significant risks,
including the loss of its
operating and/or initial
investments.

ice cream, adding new
flavors such as Banana
Peanut Butter Chip, Honey
Salted Caramel Almond,
and Midnight Cookies &
Cream enables it to appeal
to its variety-seeking
customers.

Components of Brand Equity: Brand Awareness
How many consumers
in a market are familiar
with the brand?
The more aware
consumers are with a
brand, the higher the
chances of purchase. While Gatorade’s brand aware-ness is so strong that the brand name is often used generically, its smaller competitors need to try harder.

Brand associations are often the result of a firm’s
advertising and promotional efforts.

Naming Brands and Product Lines
Family brands
• Corporate name used
across brands and
product lines.
• Example: Kraft cheeses.
Individual brands
• Products have individual
identities.
• Example: Kraft owns
Velveeta, Classico, Jello.
Kraft uses a family branding strategy in which several
product lines are sold under one name.
Kraft also uses an individual branding strategy because
Velveeta, Classico, Jell-O, Grey Poupon, Heinz, and
others are all marketed using separate names.

Brand and Line Extensions
Brand extension: Same brand name in different product line.
Line Extension: Same brand name within the same product
line.
Ferrari has licensed its brand name to manufacturer-
related apparel that appeals to those who can’t afford
the automobile.

Brand Dilution
Not all brand extensions are successful:
• Evaluate the fit between the product class of
the core brand and the extension.
• Evaluate consumer perceptions of the
attributes of the core brand and seek out
extensions with similar attributes.
• Refrain from extending the brand name to too
many products.
• Is the brand extension distanced enough from
the core brand?
Zippo suffered brand dilution when it extended its brand by introducing a perfume for
women. It turns out that women don’t associate lighters with perfume.

Co-Branding
Marketing two or more brands together.
Can enhance perceptions of quality through links between brands.
Example: Yum! Brands
• Combines two or more of its restaurant chains (A&W, KFC, Long John Silver’s, Pizza Hunt, and Taco Bell) into one store space.

product/service.
Interest can also be
sparked by a little
controversy

Company Campaign
Domino’s
Points for Pies
Domino’s introduced a new rewards program in which customers could earn points on
any pizza—not just a Domino’s pizza. By downloading the Domino’s app, users could
scan any pizza and earn points toward a free Domino’s product. The promotion helped
attract attention to Domino’s and its rewards program.
Burger King
Geofencing
Burger King used location-based marketing to great effect when it targeted consumers in
close proximity to local McDonald’s locations. Consumers in these locations would
receive a special discount voucher designed to convince them to change their plans and
head to Burger King instead. Plus, the campaign provided a great incentive for
consumers to download the Burger King app.
Target
Pokémon Pass
Target partnered with the provider of the augmented reality (AR) game Pokémon Pass to
increase foot traffic in its stores. Addicted players were encouraged to visit their local
Target store to collect Shiny Eevee and Shiny Pikachu Pokémons that were available
only in the retail locations.
Behr Paint
IBM’s Watson
Behr Paint and IBM created a mobile website through which Watson, IBM’s AI bot, helps
customers choose the right color for their rooms. Watson provides advice based on
information customers provide, such as how they feel about each room and their reasons
for renovating or repainting.

Exhibit 18.6: Rule-of-Thumb Methods(1 of 2)
Method Definition Limitations
Competitive
parity
The communication budget is set
so that the firm’s share of
communication expenses equals
its share of the market.
Does not allow firms to exploit the
unique opportunities or problems they
confront in a market. If all competitors
use this method to set communication
budgets, their market shares will stay
approximately the same over time.
Percentage-
of-sales
The communication budget is a
fixed percentage of forecasted
sales.
Assumes the same percentage used in
the past, or by competitors, is still
appropriate for the firm. Does not take
into account new plans (e.g., to
introduce a new line of products in the
current year).

Exhibit 18.6: Rule-of-Thumb Methods(2 of 2)
Method Definition Limitations
Available
budget
Marketers forecast their sales
and expenses, excluding
communication, during the
budgeting period. The difference
between the forecast sales and
expenses plus desired profit is
reserved for the communication
budget. That is, the
communication budget is the
money available after operating
costs and profits have been
budgeted.
Assumes communication expenses do
not stimulate sales and profit.

Step 5: Follow-Up
The follow-up therefore offers a prime opportunity for a salesperson to solidify the customer relationship through great service quality.
• Reliability. The salesperson and the supporting organization must deliver the right product or service on time.
• Responsiveness. The salesperson and support group must be ready to deal quickly with any issue, question, or problem that may arise.
• Assurance. Customers must be assured through adequate guarantees that their purchase will perform as expected.
• Empathy. The salesperson and support group must have a good understanding of the problems and issues faced by their customers.
• Tangibles. Their influence is subtler than that of the other four service quality dimensions.
