Answer for the identify value question

Clearly the values by function can be seen on the McDonald's planet 24 hours adv. They are promoting their functions which will differentiate themselves from their healthy competitors.

By promoting their veggie burgers and veg menus McDonald's is playing with the values by emotion quotient in the second picture add.

In the 3rd "Oldtimer's" add we can see a bit of value by mind, value by emotions and value by function.

points discused in the first lecture,28th sept

As I have seen, no body blogged about subject been discussed in the first lecture...
let me just go through the points of the first lecture which would be easy to relate..

- CCD-creating communicating and delivering the value.

VALUE is the utility,worth and attribute of an object.
the object must be useful in satisfying human wants and it must be in limited supply.
-value is related to benefit and cost though there is no specific definition to it..because it is variable.

-PRODUCTION CONCEPT-

-improve production and distribution


-also known as manufacturing concept where the manufacturing is most important field to concern.

Production Concept is a concept where goods are produced without taking into consideration the choices or tastes of your customers

PRODUCT CONCEPT-
concerned with the attributes of the product.

The difference lies in what is being produced. A product concept would be an idea for an item or product. A production concept would be the concept conceived for creating the product.

SELLING CONCEPT-
The selling concept concerns how the product is going to reach the customer.

The first decision regarding this is that of the distribution channel that is going to be used. The company can either do direct selling or sell the product through retailers, wholesalers or specialized sellers.
Whichever distribution channel is used depends on the kind of product and the target market. It is also determined how the product is going to reach the distribution outlet and how much the transportation is going to cost.

The sales territories are also determined under this concept. Organizations sometimes have separate managers for each sales territory to handle the transportation and sales outlets of that particular area.

MARKETING CONCEPT-
The marketing concept relies upon marketing research to define market segments, their size, and their needs. To satisfy those needs, the marketing team makes decisions about the controllable parameters of the marketing mix.

HOLISTIC MARKETING CONCEPT-

to be discussed in the next lecture...

thank you.

2) Value by Emotions(heart).
3)Ecnomical Value.
4)Functional Value.
Each product may be presented in such a way that it might comprise of different forms of values at a time.

Some Marketing Jargons:-

Guys! A request from Ankush sir to be there in the class before it starts

Dear Participants,

Ankush sir have requested us to ensure that once he enter the class, no one will be allowed to enter after that. So kindly ensure that we strictly follow by the rules. In case you are not able to make it to the class, then kindly do not seek permission to enter the class as he/she will not be allowed to enter. The person needs to inform sir in advance if he has any important work but if you fail to do so then please talk to sir after the class but do not make an effort to enter the class as sir won't allow.

Welcome to the world of Marketing!

Dear future managers,

I am thankful to you all and Ankush sir for giving me this opportunity to create a platform where it will be easy for us to connect with each other through the process of blogging.

The growth rate of blogs is impressive. A search engine that monitors blogs, tracked more than 8 million online diaries as of March 21, up from 100,000 just two years ago. A new blog is created every 7.4 seconds. That adds up to 12,000 new blogs a day, 275,000 posts a day and 10,800 updates an hour. Then why should we deprive our self of this free technology that will help us to share things which we might not be able to do otherwise in the class or during our college timings.
 
In our first class today, sir discussed the evaluation pattern of the the Marketing Management-1 course, and told us about the way we need to approach our case studies, projects and assignments.
 
With this, I will sign off and request you guys to update and follow the blog for the latest updates of our course and also from the world of marketing.

PS: There are only two functions in a business - marketing and innovation.”

Innovate or quit!
