Marketing & Branding

Many factors contribute to the success of a company: a suitable strategy, committed employees, a good internal flow of information, tradition and position in the respective market just as consistently apply today's marketing methods.
Philip Kotler 1931, Professor of International Marketing at the Kellogg School of Management

What is Marketing?

Marketing is the activity, set of institutions, and processes for creating, communicating, delivering, and exchanging offerings that have value for customers, clients, partners, and society at large (American Marketing Association, 2017).

Marketing’s job is to create real value for some defined group. A company creates value by (1) developing an attractive product or service, (2) pricing it right, (3) placing it so that it is easy to find and get, and (4) promoting it so that the intended market knows about the product’s existence and develops a desire for it. We call these the 4Ps of the Marketing Mix.

The company hopes to acquire economic wealth (profits) through its activities. Enlightened companies will also want to contribute to environmental wellness, social well-being, and human wisdom (the 4Ws).

An appropriate marketing strategy helps companies to achieve their economic and wider social goals. Successful businesses are unthinkable without proper marketing strategies and efficient marketing operations.

Lateral Marketing

The man who cannot visualize a horse galloping on a tomato is an idiot
André Breton

Lateral marketing is a work process which, when applied to existing products or services, produces innovative new products and services that cover needs, uses, situations, or targets not currently covered and, therefore, is a process that offers a high chance of creating new categories or markets (F. Trias de Bes).

Lateral Marketing could provide an answer to any of following questions:

  • What other needs can I satisfy with my product if I change it?
  • What other needs can I incorporate in my product to make it different?
  • Which segment of prospect consumer market could I reach changing my products?
  • What other products (subcategories) can I offer to my current consumers/clients?
  • In what other situations can my product be used if I change it?
  • What else can my product be used for?
  • What market situation can I generate on order to attack a given product?
