ABSTRACT

Developing Successful Marketing Strategies uses real market examples to demonstrate

the development of effective marketing strategies. The approach uses an organization’s

mission and vision statements to guide the development of marketing goals, strategies,

and tactics. Marketing strategy is a construct that lies at the conceptual heart of the

field of strategic marketing and is central to the practice of marketing. It is also the area

within which many of the most pressing current challenges identified by marketers

arise.

“Marketing strategy” has the potential to serve as an organizing or synthesizing theme

to understand all of marketing thought. Here, we offer an overview of the current state

of knowledge about strategic market planning. To accomplish this objective, we first

place strategic thinking within the context of the history of marketing thought, with an

emphasis on identifying those concepts which remain relevant tor strategic thinking.

Next, we review some of the current literature pertaining to certain functional areas of

marketing (e.g., product decisions) and identify key issues (e.g., brand equity) relevant

to strategic planning. We discuss alternative theories of the firm, which provide a basis

for placing marketing activities within the broader context of corporate strategy.

Finally, we discuss some emerging trends and areas of inquiry that will be relevant to

marketing strategy in the future.

Chapter-1

1.1 Introduction:

Marketing Strategies- A marketing strategy refers to a business's overall game plan for

reaching prospective consumers and turning them into customers of their products or

services. A marketing strategy contains the company’s value proposition, key brand

messaging, data on target customer demographics, and other high-level elements. A

thorough marketing strategy covers "the four p’s" of marketing—product, price, place, and

promotion.

A clear marketing strategy should revolve around the company's value proposition, which

communicates to consumers what the company stands for, how it operates, and why it

deserves their business.

Marketing strategies should ideally have longer lifespans than individual marketing plans

because they contain value propositions and other key elements of a company’s brand,

which generally hold constant over the long haul. In other words, marketing strategies

cover big-picture messaging, while marketing plans delineate the logistical details of

specific campaigns.

The ultimate goal of a marketing strategy is to achieve and communicate a sustainable

competitive advantage over rival companies by understanding the needs and wants of its

consumers. Whether it's a print ad design, mass customization, or a social media


campaign, a marketing asset can be judged based on how effectively it communicates a

company's core value proposition.

1.2 Objective of marketing strategies:

Selection of a Target Market

Identifying the target market may be the most important decision a company makes in the

strategic planning process. The company must first specify whom it is trying to attract

based on its own strengths and weaknesses, the intensity of the market competition and

the potential costs and gains. Businesses may treat the entire market -- called mass

marketing -- or target one or more specific segments or groups in the market -- market

concentration or multi-segmentation.

Specification

Businesses must decide which market position they want to take. The company that gains

the largest market share and dominates the competition becomes the market leader. The

market challenger is the position when a company confronts the leader of the market. The

market follower is a company that follows and copies the leader rather than attacks it.

Many small businesses choose to fill a market niche: a position that specializes in a

narrow segment of a large market.

Creation of a Marketing Mix

After selecting the target market, specifying the position that the company wants to take

and researching the needs and preferences of customers, the company must define its

marketing mix along the "4Ps" -- product, price, promotion and place -- to achieve a
competitive advantage. For example, its product must be of higher quality, its prices must

be lower, its promotion must be more effective, and its distribution must cost less than its

competitors must.

1.3 Importance of Marketing Strategy

 Marketing strategy provides an organization an edge over its competitors.

 Strategy helps in developing goods and services with best profit-making potential.

 Marketing strategy helps in discovering the areas affected by organizational growth

and thereby helps in creating an organizational plan to cater to the customer needs.

 It helps in fixing the right price for organization’s goods and services based on

information collected by market research.

 Strategy ensures effective departmental co-ordination.

 It helps an organization to make optimum utilization of its resources so as to

provide a sales message to its target market.

 A marketing strategy helps to fix the advertising budget in advance, and it also

develops a method which determines the scope of the plan, i.e., it determines the

revenue generated by the advertising plan.


1.4 Sales process of Rani Motor: Some of the sales process in Rani motor;

 Territory Mapping

 Select the location from route plan to be covered on each day.

 Enquiry and training – The first meetings create the lasting impression about you

in the customer mind

 Do’s-

Attend promptly and greet with a warm welcome smile, offer a hand shake and

introduce yourself, move to discussion area and offer a refreshment, Treat a

customer like a guest.

 Don’t –

Don’t be seated while offering a handshake or offering your business card,

don’t start up the conversation without introducing yourself, don’t ignore the

customer in any circumstances, ask the right question to understand the needs,

don’t force decision to customer, do not ignore customers friend or family.

 Order commitment and confirmation: To make effort to close the deal and to

create a win-win situation for both the customer and the dealership order

commitment and confirmation includes:

 Objection handling
 Buying signals.

 Closing technique.

Negotiation tips:

1.5 Advantages of marketing strategies:

Advantage: Promotes Your Business to a Target Audience

You can’t sell your products or services without appealing to the people most likely to

buy those products and services. That group is known as your target audience, and a

marketing strategy is the most effective way to reach that all-important group. If you have

targeted this group correctly, you know their habits, behaviours, wants, and needs, and

you also know where they like to hang out on social media. This information shapes the

methods you will use to promote your business. For example, if you own a comic book

store, online marketing can be more beneficial than traditional advertising to help you

reach your audience on social media platforms.

Advantage: Helps You Understand Your Customers

You have to do market research before you develop a marketing strategy, and that

research can provide you with reams of data that you can use over and over to help refine

your product development and to keep up with trends and shifts in your target audience’s

behaviour. With the evolution of digital information, even small businesses have access

to hyper-detailed information about prospective customers. This is known in the digital

world as “big data,” large data sets that give you a deep analysis into customer behaviour

based on factors such as online activity, buying activity, mobile activity, and interactions

at stores and shops.


Advantage: Helps Brand Your Business

Your marketing strategy isn’t just about boosting leads and converting them into buyers,

it’s also about expressing the culture, values, and purpose of your business. The process

of communicating that vision to your audience is the essence of branding. For example,

Apple’s marketing strategy is all about simplicity, elegance, design, and function. Their

products are sleek, simple, beautiful, and offer multiple functionalities. When people

think of Apple, they think of a company whose products are always on the cutting-edge of

technology, design, and physical attractiveness.

1.6 Process of marketing strategy

1. Understand your customer

Develop a clear picture of your target customer using market research and analysis.

Understand their pain points and the benefits of your solution.

2. Analyse the market

Some basic market research should allow you to find market data such as total available

market, market growth (historical numbers and projections), market trends, etc.

3. Analyse the competition


Ask yourself what other choices your target customers have to solve their pain point.

Research and assess the strengths and weaknesses of each. Take a look at this article for

more info on competitive marketing strategy.

4. Research distribution channels

What is the best way to deliver your product or service to your target customers? This will

impact your sales strategy and your financials, as well as your marketing mix.

5. Define your marketing mix

Check out this article about defining your marketing mix: Product, Price, Place and

Promotion.

6. Analyses the financials

Put together your marketing budget and evaluate projected marketing ROI, customer

acquisition costs, etc.

7. Review and revise

Continuously evaluate the effectiveness of your marketing strategy, and revise or extend as

needed.
1.7 Marketing Mix in Rani motor:

A marketing mix consists of a combination of factors that a business can control in order to

influence consumers to purchase its products. 

By strategically manipulating these factors and continuously optimizing them, businesses

can better serve their customers; in turn, boosting their bottom lines.

Product

 The quality of the product

 The design of the product

 The packaging of the product

 The branding of the product

In Rani motor product refers to different cars dealing by the Rani motor like Alto,

Spresso, Super Carry etc, it is also referring to different services serve by the

employees to the customer or services provided by Rani motor itself.

Price

 The retail price of the product

 The payment plans available to consumers

 The discounts available to consumers


 The credit terms required if consumers need to borrow money to purchase the

product

In rani motor Prices refer to the amount of money based on different car that

customer need to pay, like price of the car, down payment, etc.

Place

 The retail locations or storefronts required to sell the product

 Delivery of the product

 Whether or not the product is downloadable

 All distribution methods

Places refer to different location as in Rani motor it is based on different location or

different branch as Rani motor had spread all over Meghalaya like. In Mawkyrwat

branch, in Mairang branch, in Nongstoin branch, in Tura branch…. etc.

Promotion

 The advertising that promotes a product

 The salespeople (or lack thereof) required to sell the product

 Public relations

 Emails, or any other form of communication that spreads the word of the product

Promotion is always a must so in Rani motor mostly promotion is always based on

the advertisement like how they advertised the product and all. So, promotion in Rani
motor is based on advertising a car and also giving offer to the customer based on

different car.

And, also sales promotion came under promotion which it helps

 For introducing new product to the existing market.

 To increase of an existing product.

CHAPTER-2

LITERATURE REVIEW:

(J.Hooley, Generic marketing strategies, 1992 march) Marketing objectives, strategic focus,

market targeting, quality and price positioning—were used to cluster strategies. Five

generic strategies were identified and were analyses by market type, corporate attitudes,

and performance using discriminant analysis. The study provides more in-depth insights

into the nature of marketing strategies than has been possible hitherto. The theoretical,

practical and methodological implications are discussed.

(Morgan, 2019) Marketing strategy is a construct that lies at the conceptual heart of the

field of strategic marketing and is central to the practice of marketing. “Marketing strategy

is an organization’s integrated pattern of decisions that specify its crucial choices

concerning products, markets, marketing activities and marketing resources in the creation,

communication and/or delivery of products that offer value to customers in exchanges with

the organization and thereby enables the organization to achieve specific objectives.”

(Jr, 06-Oct-2010) As green marketing strategies become increasingly more important to

firms adhering to a triple-bottom line performance evaluation, the present research seeks to

better understand the role of “green” as a marketing strategy.

(Singh, May 2006 ) Customer satisfaction Many researchers have looked into the

importance of customer satisfaction. Kotler (2000) defined satisfaction as: “a person’s

feelings of pleasure or disappointment resulting from comparing a product’s perceived


performance (or outcome) in relation to his or her expectations”. Hoyer and MacInnis

(2001) said that satisfaction can be associated with feelings of acceptance, happiness, relief,

excitement, and delight.

Satisfied customers are most likely to share their experiences with other people to the order

of perhaps five or six people. Equally well, dissatisfied customers are more likely to tell

another ten people of their unfortunate experience. Furthermore, it is important to realize

that many customers will not complain and this will differ from one industry sector to

another.

(Thompson, 1998)It's easy to say “the customer is king,” but harder to walk the talk. Here's

how leading‐edge companies are dealing with customers, and the lessons they're learning

from them.

CHAPTER-6

Finding & suggestion

6.1 Finding:

 50% says that the marketing strategies of the Rani motor are Goods.

 Rani motor provided not only product but also it is based on services also, and

almost 100% of the customer feels satisfied with the services provided by rani

motor.

 Among all the customer most of them they feel perfect, goods when it comes to

exchanging of their old car as they actually get as a discount or as a down payment.

 Regarding the use of the advertisement in Rani motor, almost 100% of the

customer belief in advertisement and almost 100% of the customer were urge to

purchase a car through advertisement.


6.2 Suggestion:

The firm need to modify their marketing strategies, as about half of the user indicate that

the marketing strategies in Rani motor are good and the firm must take initiate in direction

to make the strategies much better and more over the people who think that the strategies

are not good will say in the future that the strategies provided by Rani motor are even good

now.

Regarding the advertisement, even though the advertisement provided by Rani motor was

satisfied by most of the Customer and almost 100% of the customer were urge to purchase

a car through advertisement but Rani motor need to keep up their good work and tries to

modify or create more like advertising campaign and all.

Although there is an offer in most of the car in Rani motor, but my suggestion is Rani

motor needed to provide more offer so that they can attract more and more customer in the

future.

Most of the customer were satisfied with the service provided by Rani motor, but as per my

suggestion Rani motor they need to give train to their employees like twice a year so as the

employees will have an excellent skill while interacting with customer, communicating

with customer because now a days we all know that services is a must because if some

organization do not have the best quality of services there will be a red mark for the

organization.
CHAPTER-7

Conclusion

On the basis of my studies, I conclude that marketing is the most exciting of all business

sports. It is the heartbeat of every successful business. It is continually changing in response

to the explosion of information, the expansion of technology, and the aggressiveness of

competition, at all levels and everywhere.

All business strategy is marketing strategy. Your ability to think clearly and well about the

very best marketing strategies, and to continually change and upgrade your activities, is the

key to the future of your business.

Fortunately, like all business skills, marketing can be learned by practice, experimentation,

and continually making mistakes. The key is to test, test, test. And whatever marketing

strategy is working for you today, no matter how ...

The process of Marketing strategies lets a manager determine whether or not a strategy is in

keeping with the organization’s mission and whether it has a reasonable chance for success.

Finally, the process requires a manager to analyse the impact of the strategy on the

organization before implementation which, as a result, can reduce strategic mishaps.

Although marketing strategies indicate the general approaches to be used in achieving

product objectives, the implementation of these strategies through marketing programmes

is the most time-consuming part of marketing management.


Marketing programmes (such as advertising and sales promotion programmes, and sales

distribution programmes) indicate the specific activities and tactics that will be necessary to

implement a strategy.

For instance, if a strategy requires the firm to achieve distributor cooperation, the details of

how the sales force will achieve cooperation must be worked out.

No matter how appropriate a strategy might appear, it will fail if not properly implemented.

Consequently, clear statements regarding target markets and marketing strategies are

necessary to ensure that the correct programmes and tactics will be developed.

From the foregoing discussions, we can conclude that a marketing strategy serves as the

major link between corporate marketing planning and the situation analysis on the one hand

and the development of specific programs on the other.
