PREFACE

Before I started to work in POSRI (POSCO Research Institute) related with


steel company, I was not interested in steel industry. I thought that steel company
or steel industry was career just for man. So I thought I don’t have chance to work
in this industry or company. However, fortunately, I got an internship in POSRI
related with steel industry. So I got new experience and had a chance to approach
business to business (B2B) marketing. As a student who is major in marketing,
generally speaking I’m always interested in business to consumer (B2C)
marketing. But, after this internship, I can see a new business world, that is, B2B.
Because of this internship, I took a class of B2B for final semester. I was too
curious about B2B marketing compared with B2C marketing.
Usually, students who are major in marketing in management focus to learn
Business to Consumer (B2C) marketing. Moreover, my classmates who are major
in marketing also wrote a graduation thesis about B2C marketing. But I wanted to
write a graduation thesis instead of B2C marketing for differentiation with them.
In addition, before starting internship program for a credit, I already participated
in non credit internship in POSRI. So, I was interested in Business to Business
(B2B) marketing more. According to this, it was easy to approach B2B marketing
for an internship report.
For this opportunity, I thank:
Ms. Elevita Yuliati, who is an academic advisor for an internship program. She
coached me for an internship report and gave me tips on how to handle and
approach situations.
Mr. Park Kyungsuh, who is an advisor of internship program as senior
economist in POSRI. I want to thank him for giving me the opportunity to
internship program in POSRI. He always answered my questions related with
Indonesian economic situations.
Also I appreciated all coworkers during internship program. I want to thank
Ms.Maria, Mr.Murtyastanto, Mr. Wahyu Adhiprasetya.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

After economic crisis in Korea in 2008, many Korean companies started to look for
new market in global including Indonesia. Most companies focused on business in
Asian market. Representatively, there are Indonesia, Vietnam, India, and Thailand. In
the one of them, the best overseas investment is Indonesia. There are several reasons
as follows. First, Indonesia is ranking 4th of population in the world. In other words,
there has a big domestic market. Then, Indonesia has a wide land. It’s means that this
country has abundant resources. Next, Indonesia has the best stability of politics and
government in the country of Southeast Asia. So, it is easy to do a business than in
other countries. After that, Indonesia has the biggest potential business. Because of
those reasons, Korean major companies-LOTTE, POSCO- entered to Indonesian
market. Besides, other Korean major companies- CJ, SK- also started to expand their
business in Indonesia.
Since 2008, POSCO (formerly Pohang Iron and Steel Company) has invested to
build plants in Indonesia. In that time, Koreans who have been living in Indonesia
were happy to hear this news and proud of that. That’s why POSCO is one of the
biggest companies in Korea and has good image. POSCO was public enterprise
before. But, since 2000, POSCO privatized a public enterprise.
Actually, PT. Krakatau POSCO was started by requirement of Indonesian
government. The government of Indonesia felt a necessity of development of steel in
Indonesia. So, they looked for business partners. In the one of them Indonesia
selected Korea because these government was closed. Basically, this company was
started by project of governments. The government of Korea introduced POSCO
which is the best steel company in Korea to the government of Indonesia which has
PT. Krakatau Steel. After that, POSCO and PT. Krakatau Steel was started to
establish a joint venture company. Because this project was started by the government

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


of Indonesia, the government of Indonesia used to help this company if there are
problems of administration. This joint venture company is operated by site from PT.
Krakatau Steel and capital & technology from POSCO.
After PT. Krakatau POSCO established, POSCO group thought that POSCO
Research Institute (POSRI) is needed for research of economic situations in Indonesia
besides in China and India. According to this, POSRI Indonesia office was opened in
September 2012. In this office, there are 3 employees, that is, a senior economist who
is in dispatch service of PT. Krakatau POSCO, 2 research assistants (Korean and
Indonesian). The purpose of this office is to collect data of steel industry in Indonesia
and to research Indonesian economic situations which influence to PT. Krakatau
POSCO.

1.2 Indonesian Steel Industry

Steel industry is one of strategic industry which is deeply related with


infrastructure and manufacturing industry .Indonesia is one of the producers of steel
as ranking 36 in the world. Based on 2005~2009, it produces 3.5~4.2 tons per annual.
In Indonesia the target of steel volume is 6~6.5 tons but the deficit of steel is 3~3.5
tons. In 2015 Indonesia can meet all need for consumers. Until now on Indonesia still
import pallet and pig iron. Industry Indonesia relative down because Indonesia still
import for raw material, less supply, standard pricing, environment problem. But, the
resources (iron ore, natural gas, coal, and etc) of domestic market have high potential
business for industry steel. (Indonesia Investment Coordinating Board, ‘Development
of basic metals industry investment report’)
Indonesia’s steel consumption grew robustly by 22.4% y/y to 10.95mn metric tons
in 2011 in line with the growth in domestic steel demand. As the country with the
largest economy and highest population in ASEAN, its share of steel consumption
reached 20.9% making it the top second steel consuming country in the region.

With about 300 domestic players, the steel industry of Indonesia employs more
than 500,000 people and is capable of producing 5.5mn tons of total steel products

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


annually including hot-rolled steel products (bars, wire rods and plates) and crude
steel products (billet and slab). And more production is expected in the coming years.

Similar to other ASEAN member countries, Indonesia is a big net importer of steel
products as local producers supply only about half of the country’s steel demand. In
2011, imports of total iron and steel products surged 24.5% y/y to 9.7mn tons. The
largest country of origin was Japan, China and Russia.

State-owned PT Krakatau Steel (KRAS) is the largest integrated steel producer in


Indonesia. The steelmaker is capable of producing 2.5mn tons of crude steel and is
the largest producer of Hot & Cold Rolled Coils (HRC & CRC) with a domestic
market share of 41% and 24%, respectively. (Emerging Markets Direct Official

CHAPTER 3
RELATED THEORIES

3.1 Introduction to Business Marketing

3.1.1 The Definition of Term ‘Business Marketing’


Business marketing is marketing products or services to other companies,
government bodies, institutions, and other organizations. Business marketing also
includes the marketing of products and services that facilitate their operations. (F.
Robert Dwyer & John F. Tanner, Jr. ‘Business Marketing’ 4th)

3.1.2 The Importance of Business Marketing


How much salt does the average household in the United States use each year?
Total food-grade salt sales for the United States are 1.33 million pounds annually.
Consumption in the household, however, is 7-8 grams per day per person, which
only equates to 824 thousand pounds. Why difference? The consumption figure
doesn’t count the amount of salt that is in processed foods or foods we purchase
in restaurants. Business purchase and use over 500,000 pounds of food-grade salt
per year, or almost 40 percent of total salt sales, for such purposes as making
pickles, breakfast cereals, and other food products. Add to this amount the volume
of industrial-grade salt, and the industrial purchases of salt tower over consumer
purchases. (F. Robert Dwyer & John F. Tanner, Jr. ‘Business Marketing’ 4th)

3.1.3 How Business Marketing is Unique


 Buyer-Seller Relationships

In consumer markets, there are few industries where close personal


relationships exist between buyer and seller. Perhaps in those instances
where personal selling is the most important element of the marketing
mix and where customer service is also important, relationships between
buyer and seller may exist. These situations, however, are rare.

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


In business marketing, situations where strong personal and business
relationships grow between buyer and seller are not as rare. The strategic
importance of many purchases is too great for companies to always shop
around when making a purchase; they need to make absolutely sure that
the product fits their needs and that it will be available when needed at the
right cost. Therefore, many companies enter into long-term contracts, build
relationship that enable buyers and sellers to plan jointly, and work to
secure the future for both companies. (F. Robert Dwyer & John F. Tanner,
Jr. ‘Business Marketing’ 4th)

 Shorter Distribution Channels

In most cases, distribution channels do not include anyone between the


manufacturer and the customer who uses the product, or user. Many
manufacturers sell directly to the user, which reflects a large difference
between business marketing and consumer marketing. In situations where
industrial distribution are used, there are still fewer steps between the
consumer and manufacturer.
Shorter channels contribute to the closer relationship between
manufacturer and buyer. Buyers can have more direct input into the
product planning process. Direct relationships between various functional
areas within both companies can result; for example, the accounts
payable department of the buyer may talk directly with the billing
department of the seller if problems arise. (F. Robert Dwyer & John F.
Tanner, Jr. ‘Business Marketing’ 4th)

 Emphasis on Personal Selling

Stronger relationships and shorter channels are two reasons why there
is a greater emphasis on personal selling in business marketing. Direct
communication between buyer and seller also increases the need for
strong personal selling, because someone is needed to coordinate that

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


communication. Salespeople are the members of the organization
responsible for coordinating their company’s efforts at satisfying their
customers. That responsibility is greater when the organization is
concerned about creating and maintaining partnerships with its customers.
Complex buying procedures involving many members of the buying
organization also require personal selling. Only through personally
getting to know each individual and coordinating the sales-purchase
process can a business be successful. Multiple personal relationships can
strengthen organizational relationships, and these relationships are the
responsibility of the salesperson.
A customer’s size and a direct channel also influence business
marketing by increasing the importance of negotiation. Large orders sold
directly by the manufacturers to the user or OEM (Original Equipment
Manufacturer) buyer increase the likelihood of negotiation because
changes can be made to the product and price. There is greater flexibility
in the seller’s offering, increasing the potential for negotiating the final
deal and adding to the importance of personal selling. (F. Robert Dwyer
& John F. Tanner, Jr. ‘Business Marketing’ 4th)

 Greater Web Integration

One unique aspect of business marketing is how the Web is used. The
Web becomes the backbone of a supplier/customer communication
network that enables customers to track shipment information, order
products at prices and terms agreed to by the salesperson and buyer, and
access other account information that helps manage the supply process. (F.
Robert Dwyer & John F. Tanner, Jr. ‘Business Marketing’ 4th)

 Unique Promotional Strategies

The complex buying process and inclusion of several people from


different functional areas impact the business marketing promotional

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


strategies, too.
Each different department may have a separate set of needs and
interests, which may influence how marketers promote their products.
Additionally, consumers can go to shopping malls for their purchases.
Few business shopping malls exist, so trade show or expositions are
created. These shows last for a few days and bring together buyers from
all over the world. (F. Robert Dwyer & John F. Tanner, Jr. ‘Business
Marketing’ 4th)

3.1.4 Business Markets


 Types of Business Customers

 Original Equipment Manufacturers

: When a company purchases a product or service to be included in


its own final product, the company is called an original equipment
manufacturer (OEM).
 Users

: User is the business equivalent of the final consumer.


 Government Agencies

: The purchasing processes used by the government can be frustrating


and complex, particularly because the government seeks to
accomplish social objectives through purchasing. Policies designed to
encourage the growth of minority or women-owned businesses as
well as small businesses are example of social objective policies that
influence government purchasing.
 Institutions

: Institutions include organizations such as schools, hospitals and


nursing homes, churches, and charitable organizations. Some of these
organizations may use purchasing procedures similar to those utilized
by government agencies, whereas others may follow less

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


standardized procedures.
 Industrial Distributors

: Industrial distributors are those organizations that supply industrial


companies with products and service.
(F. Robert Dwyer & John F. Tanner, Jr. ‘Business Marketing’ 4th)

 Types of Products

 Raw Material

: Raw materials are products from extractive industries, such as


mining, forestry, fishing, and agriculture. Examples would be coal,
iron ore, crude oil, sea salt, timber, fish, meat, corn, wheat, copper,
sand, limestone, lead, silver, gold, wool, cotton, and many more. All
products originate within the raw material’s spectrum. Many man-
made products, such as plastics or glass, had their start in crude oil or
sand. These products may be sold as OEM components, or as end-
user supplies.
 Installations

: Installations are capital goods that have to be installed on the


customer’s premises. A drop forge, a large industrial robot, a machine
tool, a large planer, an overhead crane, and a mainframe computer are
examples of installations.
 Auxiliary Equipment

: Auxiliary equipment would include small, portable equipment, such


as typewriters, personal computers, electric saws, grinders, routers,
gauges, electronic test equipment, and drills. OEMs, and-users, and
distributors would purchase these items.
 Component Parts

: Also called subassemblies, these parts are incorporated into an

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


OEM’s finished product, which is resold down the channel. They can
be electronic assemblies, gears, switches, tires, motors,
microprocessors, and light bulbs, to name a few.
 Processed Materials

: Product that could not be considered component parts occupy this


classification. Typical of this group would be plastics, sheet steel,
chemicals, lubricants, abrasives, filters, glass, leather, boxboard,
plywood, and various hydrocarbon products. These products are used
in the manufacturing process, which often causes them to wear out
and requires replacement, repair, or restoration.
 Supplies

: Supplies are used during the operation or production phase. Towels


for the washroom, paper, pencils, pens, carbon paper, computer
diskettes, marginal punched computer paper, work gloves, safety
glasses, uniforms, wipes, and hard hats are considered supplies.
Frequently, industrial supplies are handled by specialized supply
houses or by industrial distributors.
 Industrial Services

: These services are sufficiently important to be classified


separately. They include legal services, financial services, training,
educational services, marketing research, advertising consultation,
and management and marketing consulting.
(F. Robert Dwyer & John F. Tanner, Jr. ‘Business Marketing’ 4th)

 Size and Location of Customers

Size and location of customers create unique challenges for business


marketers that are not faced by those who market directly to customers.
Business customers are larger than individual consumers, so each
business customer is more important to the financial success of the

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


business marketer. At the same time, there are fewer individual business
customers.
Business customers are also more likely to be geographically
concentrated. Industries tend to arise around key resources.
At the same time that business markets tend to be geographically
concentrated, they are also globally oriental. Because customers are
fewer in number and tend to be larger and geographically concentrated in
various parts of the globe, competition for business tends to be more
global. (F. Robert Dwyer & John F. Tanner, Jr. ‘Business Marketing’ 4th)

 Purchasing Standards and Processes

 Strict Standards

: Business buyers apply strict performance standards to their


purchases. Professional purchasers and multiperson buying teams
have formal responsibility for product and vendor evaluation. Inputs
often must conform to design specifications, cost constraints,
delivery windows, and the like.
 Purchasing Process

: The larger number of people involved in organizational purchasing


contrasts sharply with typical household buying. Within families,
purchasing roles are more flexible, often arising from implicit
negotiation, expertise, and habit, Although in both cases, someone
may purchase a product for use by someone else, the sheer size and
complexity of organizations and number of people involved often
lead to a more complex purchasing process.
Furthermore, many organizational controls are in place to assist
professional purchasers-and evaluate them.
(F. Robert Dwyer & John F. Tanner, Jr. ‘Business Marketing’ 4th)

 The Nature of Demand

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


 Derived Demand

: Derived demand is demand for their products and service is derived


from the demand for their customers’ products and services.
For suppliers to manufacturers of consumer products, the issue of
derived demand may not be too great. In this situation, there is
virtually a one-to-one relationship; for every consumer product
purchased, there is a one-to-one relationship with the supplier of a
component of that product.
 Joint Demand

: Joint demand, in contrast to derived demand, is a relatively simple


concept to understand. Joint demand refers to situations where two
products are used together and are demanded together.
Joint demand can create especially difficult marketing challenges
for technology based products because the company is dependent on
the technology.

3.2.1 The Business Marketing Research Process

 Step1: Justify Need for Data

Before any research can be started, the company managers must


establish the need for the information. Research is expensive and time
consuming. The collection of data to simulate or give the illusion that
progress is being made is unpardonable. It occurs when fuzzy objectives
and fuzzy information needs are used. Reports that used to be due every
three months may be demanded every day, for example. Nobody asks of
this added knowledge generates new output.

 Step 2: Establish Research Objectives

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


The second step is a statement of the research objectives or problem
definition and the specific information that is needed to achieve these
objectives. Both tasks give direction and purpose to the research.

 Step 3: Determine Sources of Data

The third step is to determine the secondary data sources available.


These sources could include both internal and external sources to the firm.
Previous research work, company records, commercial trade magazines,
journal articles, industry reports, government reports, and other
secondary sources are some of the best secondary sources. If sufficient
data are not provided by the secondary sources, primary sources have to
be tapped. Primary data may be collected by mail, telephone, personal
interviews, observation, experimentation, technical focus research,
attitude research, and simulation.

 Step 4: Develop Research Instruments

The fourth step and subsequent steps in the marketing research process
are related to developing new data. Data collection forms, research
instruments, or personal interview questionnaires have to be developed.
This is a most critical step since the use of improper forms or poorly
worded questions could damage the integrity of the data collected,
generating dirty or distorted data.

 Step 5: Sample Design

Sample design is the fifth step. A clear definition of the total


population of the universe to be determined and a sample characteristic of
this universe must be drawn. Usually probabilistic or non probabilistic
samples are taken depending upon the data’s availability. The correct size
of that sample is important because it affects the accuracy of the
subsequent research

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


 Step 6: Data Correction

The sixth step is the data collection process, which can account for
many of the errors that exist in marketing research. The human factors of
perception, memory, interpersonal relationships, ethnocentrism, and basic
communications may help to distort data collection.

 Step 7: Data Processing

Data processing is the seventh step. It includes editing and coding of


the data so the data can be easily analyzed to develop meaningful results.
After editing and coding, the data are ready for tabulation either by hand
or by computer. Computers, even PCs, are most helpful for the smallest
projects.

 Step 8: Data Analysis

Once tabulated, the data are analyzed to determine the results. This is
an attempt to make the analysis consistent with the objectives and
informational needs discussed in step two. Caution must be taken to
separate useful data from illusions. Frequently, a reexamination of the
questions asked will uncover some interesting results. Superfluous
information may have been generated. The respondents may have given
answers to questions about which they had little or no knowledge. Many
software packages exist that are used in this step, but one of the notable
one is called MIDAS, an acronym for Market Image Data Analysis
System. Companies can build the system themselves using a combination
of hardware and software, according to the developers. This type of
system use Express, Metaphor, and SPSS software.

 Step 9: Presentation of Research Results

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


The ninth and last step in the marketing research process is the
presentation of the results to management, via oral and written
communications. Regardless of the accuracy and scholarly attributes of
the research, the research and subsequent analysis is no better than its
presentation to marketing managers. Communication of results is the key
to effective marketing research. Many well-researched and well-analyzed
projects have been stymied because of a poor or inadequate presentation
to management. Conversely, some well-presented projects, not as well
researched and analyzed, have been enthusiastically received by
management.
(Robert W. Eckles, ‘Business Marketing Management’)

3.2.2 The Strategic Marketing Plan

 Step 1

Formulate the mission/goal statement.


 Step 2

Prepare a detailed market analysis, which includes competitor’s


strengths, weaknesses, and strategies, and economic, legislative, and
regulatory trends affecting the company, its customers, and its
competitors.

 Step 3

Analyze the SBU strengths, weaknesses (which includes its products,


pricing distribution, and promotion programs).

 Step 4

Formulate the marketing objectives, strategies, and implementation


tactics essential to the plan.

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


 Step 5

Examine the human and financial resources required to achieve the


objectives. If a shortfall in resources occurs, objectives, strategies, and
tactics are reviewed and redesigned to fit the limited resources.

 Step 6

Compare the revised objectives to the long-term mission/goal statement


to ensure objectives are compatible with the company’s expected long-term
direction and market opportunities.

CHAPTER 4

DATA AND ANALYSIS

4.1 Business Marketing in Practice

Based on Chapter 3, business marketing has 5 unique characteristics: a) buyer-


seller relationships, b) shorter distribution channels, c) emphasis on personal
selling, d) greater web integration, and e) unique promotional strategies .How can
these theories be applied in practice?
First, in practice of buyer-seller relationships, it is different relationship
compared with B2C marketing. Usually, in B2C marketing buyers don’t need to
order products to sellers. But, in B2B marketing buyers need to order products to
sellers. In case of PT. Krakatau POSCO, PT. Krakatau POSCO’s customers have
to request order to PT. Krakatau POSCO in detail.
Second, in practice of shorter distribution channels, buyers deal directly with
sellers. So, there are no middlemen for supply. In case of PT. Krakatau POSCO,
PT. Krakatau POSCO’s customers keep in touch with PT. Krakatau POSCO
directly for order or PT. Krakatau POSCO keep in touch with their customers.
Third, in practice of an emphasis on personal selling, B2B companies focus on
this marketing tool among many marketing tools. In case of PT. Krakatau POSCO,
marketing managers of PT. Krakatau POSCO have a close association with
buyers each company. For example, marketing managers of PT. Krakatau POSCO
visit customers’ company. In addition, through a meeting they decide quantity of
order or types of products.
Fourth, in practice of greater web integration, several websites which are
related with steel industry exist for their communities. There are 2 websites:
South East Asia Iron & Steel Institute (SEASI) and World Steel Association
(WSA). Through these websites, many steel companies interact information
exchanges each other and acquire up-dated news in industry.
Fifth, in practice of unique promotional strategies, marketing events are held as

B2b marketing ..., Joo Yoon Jee, FE UI, 2013


a promotion. In case of PT. Krakatau POSCO, on December 2013 PT. Krakatau
POSCO invited their customers to marketing event in plant in Cilegon, Indonesia.
By this marketing event, PT. Krakatau POSCO improves their reliability to their
customers and increases the level of closeness with their customers for
maintaining good relationships.
In practice, it can be found features of business marketing as above. According
to this, B2B marketing is definitely different from B2C marketing.

CHAPTER 5
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION

5.1 Conclusion

For business marketing it is important to collect data needed and research first.
By Internet and interview it can gain information. For new market in steel
industry of Indonesia, various data or information is needed. First, it researches
major companies of steel for understanding situation of steel industry of
Indonesia. There are several steel companies: PT. Krakatau Steel, PT. Gunung
Steel, PT. Ispat Indo, PT. Gunawan Steel, PT. The Master Steel, PT. Essar
Indonesia, PT. Bluescope Indonesia. According to these competitors, PT.
Krakatau Steel can make a positioning of business.
Then, it can help to make marketing plan for sales though data of expected
customers in each industry – automobiles industry, electronics industry,
construction industry, heavy equipment industry.
Next, by survey several association official website, that is, South East Asia
Iron & Steel Institute, Statistics Indonesia, World Steel Association, it can
research volume of demand and supply in steel market of Indonesia.
After that, through information of shipyard location in Indonesia it can make a
plan for transport of products.
Finally, for success of business marketing it needs to be prepared or provided
various data for marketing plan and strategic marketing.

5.2 Suggestion

It is difficult to gain all data though Internet. It is limited to research it by


Internet. According to this, sometimes it needs other methods for research. For
example, another method is by an interview. In addition, it needs a double check
of information for ensuring an accuracy of data.

It suggests that Statistics Indonesia as a government organization can provide


more various data and accurate information for public. The data from Statistics
Indonesia is insufficient compared with the data from South East Asia Iron &
Steel Institute (SEASI) and World Steel Association (WSA).
