MARKETING STRATEGY
MARKET RESEARCH
Lead users are companies and individuals whose needs are far
ahead of market trends. By observing them ,marketers can
develop ideas for innovative new products and services .
Empathetic design gives researchers an opportunity to
understand how people actually use products and services.
Decision makers who directly hear customer wants or
complaints are much likely to respond to them than do those
who experience customer issues indirectly through research
reports.
MASS CUSTOMIZATION
Email and web based merchandising are the two key forms of
internet marketing.
Email campaigns can be used to make sales ,build customer
relationships ,and drive people to Web sites and stores.
Web based merchandising gives vendors a direct link with
customers ,eliminating middlemen and costly retail facilities.
Thoughtful keywording of products and services ensures that
a site will show up when shoppers run a Google search.
