cannot always be anticipated. Weaknesses and strengths are more often internal and
therefore more within reach of being measured and fixed.

Marketing environment
Environmental scanning is the process of identifying factors that can affect
marketing success which are global, technological, sociocultural, competitive, and
economic influences.
Global Factors : Using the Internet, businesses can reach many of the world’s
consumers relatively easily and carry on a dialogue with them about the goods
and services they want
Technological Factors : Using consumer databases, blogs, social networking, and
the like, companies can develop products and services that closely match
consumers’ needs
Sociocultural Factors : Marketers must monitor social trends to maintain their
close relationship with customers, since population growth and changing
demographics can have an effect on sales
Competitive Factors : Now that consumers can literally search the world for the
best buys online, marketers must adjust their pricing, delivery, and services
accordingly
Economic Factors : As the economy slowed, marketers had to adapt by offering
products that were less expensive and more tailored to consumers with modest
incomes.
