Korisnost forme – kreiranje i proizvodnja proizvoda koji će na najbolji način zadovoljiti zahteve i želje potrošača. Korisnost mesta – proizvod približiti što više mestu potrošnje (funkcija transporta). Korisnost vremena – da proizvod bude na raspolaganju i isporučen kada odgovara potrošaču (funkcija skladištenja). Korisnost informisanja – upoznavanje potrošača sa svim bitnim karakteristikama proizvoda (funkcija prodaje). Korisnost posedovanja za potrošače. Korisnost zadatka – ovlašćeno obavljanje odredjenog posla za račun preduzeća (usluge distributera, banaka).

“ ... zbog toga što mu je osnovna svrha da kreira potrošače, poslovno preduzeće ima dve funkcije, i samo ove dve bazične funkcije: funkcije: marketing i inovacije. Marketing i inovacije proizvode rezultate, sve drugo su troškovi”. Peter Drucker svetski lider u menadžmetnu menadžmetnu

Marketing kao poslovna koncepcija (doktrina, filozofija)
Stav menadžmenta prema ulozi preduzeća u privredi i društvu – zadovoljavanje identifikovanih potreba potrošača odredjenim proizvodima i uslugama, uz ostvarenje dobiti. Preduzeća koja žele da budu uspešna moraju da što više vrednosti ‘’ugradjuju’’ u svoje proizvode/usluge, tako ostvaruju viši nivo satisfakcije potrošača koji će uvek biti spremni da za takvu ponudu plate i više.

Marketing kao naučna disciplina
Bavi se istraživanjem poslovnih aktivnosti koje omogućuju efektivnost i efikasnost razmene i povezivanja proizvodnje i potrošnje. Marketing je najmladja disciplina društvenih nauka (marketing je razvio specijalizovane metode i tehnike utvrdjivanja činjenica i interpretacija i zaključivanja). zaključivanja) Po svojoj prirodi marketing je interdisciplinarnog karaktera (marketing se u razvoju u velikoj meri oslanjao na koncepcije i metode iz drugih naučnih disciplina, ali isto tako je originalnim koncepcijama i metodima doprinosio razvoju drugih naučnih disciplina i da taj njegov uticaj sve više jača). U akademske krugove marketing prodire prvo na Pensilvanija univerzitetu (1905. predmet Marketing proizvoda).

Suština marketing koncepta
Marketing kreira i isporučuje vrednosti za potrošače i time olakšava razmenu. razmenu. Da bi ispunio ciljeve obe strane u razmeni marketing preduzeća mora da: otkrije potrebe i želje potencijalnih potrošača da ih zadovolji na adekvatan način

Mnogi autori navode da marketing koncept ukuljučuje tri ključna ukuljučuje aspekta: aspekta:
Orijentacija na kupce (potrošači su početna tačka svih marketing aktivnosti u preduzeću, a informacije o kupcima su osnova formiranja ponude preduzeća i kreiranje dodatne vrednosti). Orijentacija na konkurenciju (neprekidan proces takmičenja koji se zasniva na analiziranju dobrih i loših strana u strategijama i taktikama aktuelnih i potencijalnih rivala preduzeća). Interfunkcionalna koordinacija marketinga i drugih poslovnih funkcija da bi se obezbedio stabilan rast i razvoj preduzeća na tržištu.

Evolucija marketing koncepta
Proizvodna koncepcija Prodajna koncepcija Marketing koncepcija

Proizvodna koncepcija
Nastaje u vreme industrijske revolucije krajem 80-ih godina XIX 80veka i traje do 30-ih godina XX veka. 30Tržište nije dovoljno snabdeveno proizvodima i uslugama. Pretpostavka je da potrošači favorizuju kvalitetne proizvode i da je potreban mali promocioni napor za plasman proizvoda na tržište. Marketing ima pasivnu ulogu. Proizvodna koncepcija može biti korisna i danas kada: tražnja za odredjenom kategorijom proizvoda prevazilazi ponudu je potrebno povećati produktivnost da bi se snizili troškovi proizvodnje

Koncept proizvoda
Neki autori u evoluciji marketinga koncept proizvoda označavaju kao posebnu fazu u razvoju. Potrošači favorizuju proizvode najboljeg kvaliteta i performansi ili proizvode koji poseduju neke nove karakteristike. Menadžeri usmeravaju napore preduzeća na prodaju superiornog proizvoda i njegovo kontinuelno poboljšanje. Neki savremeni brendovi vuku korene upravo iz ovih pionirskih poduhvata.

Prodajna koncepcija
Preovladjuje u periodu kada privreda ulazi u fazu masovne proizvodnje (1930 -1950). Ekspanzija komercijalnog sektora u organizacionoj strukturi preduzeća. Odeljenja marketinga subordinisana u okviru komercijalnog sektora, ali i dalje podredjena poslovnim funkcijama proizvodnje, finansija i istraživanja i razvoja. Povećava se aktivnost unapredjenja prodaje i privredne propagande, propagande, a istraživanje tržišta počinje da se bavi istraživanjima tražnje i prodaje.

Marketing koncepcija
Počinje ranih 50-ih godina XX veka. Počinje 50Preduzeća u SAD prepoznaju različite grupe potrošača segmente. sa identičnim potrebama i željama – tržišne segmente. Marketing ima vodeću ulogu u odlučivanju šta i koliko proizvoditi polazeći od potreba tržišnih segmenata. Marketing i prodaja više nisu tretirani kao sinonimi.

Marketing se razlikuje od prodaje kao hemija od alhemije, astronomija od astrologije i šah od šahiranja.

Koncept društvenog marketinga
Prema Kotleru, poslednja faza u evoluciji marketinga u SAD pripada faza konceptu društvenog marketinga. Kotler i Zaltman daju široko značenje ovom konceptu 1971. 1971. Sve češće je u upotrebi skraćenica KDO – Korporativna društvena odgovornost. odgovornost.

• eventualne konsekvence na zdravlje potrošača i životnu sredinu • društvene troškove • koristi od upotrebe proizvoda

Marketing pokretan vrednostima marketing 3.0
Predstavlja poslednji koncept kojim ova naučna naučna disciplina objašnjava suštinu uspešnog bavljenja biznisom i menadžmentom. Vrednosti potrošača danas nisu samo funkcionalne i emocionalne, nego sve više poprimaju duhovnu komponentu čime značajno utiču na poboljšanje kvaliteta života.

Pokret potrošača - konzumerizam
Nastao 60-ih godina XX veka. 60Medjunarodni pokret koji pokriva veliki broj područja iz oblasti zaštite potrošača, a programi akcija na zaštiti potrošača se razlikuju od zemlje do zemlje. Osnovna prava potrošača zagarantovana na osnovu Medjunarodne organizacije potrošača i deklaracije Ujedinjenih nacija iz 1985.
Pravo na bezbednost Pravo na informisanost Pravo na izbor Pravo da se čuje glas potrošača Pravo na zadovoljenje osnovnih potreba Pravo na obrazovanje Pravo na nadoknadu (obeštećenje) Pravo na zdravu životnu sredinu

Marketing i konzumerizam u osnovi imaju zajednički imenitelj – podizanje konzumerizam blagostanja. stepena satisfakcije potrošača i povećanje društvenog blagostanja.

Etička odgovornost preduzeća
Marketinške aktivnosti mnogo su više podložne etičkom preispitivanju nego što je to slučaj sa drugim poslovnim funkcijama u preduzeću. Marketing etika predstavlja uvodjenje i sprovodjenje visokih standarda ponašanja i moralnih vrednosti u poslovanju. Poslovna etika kao akademsko područje nastala je 70-ih 70godina XX veka. Društvo za poslovnu etiku osnovano je 1980.

Društvena odgovornost preduzeća
Poslovna briga za društveno blagostanje. Mnoga od visokoprofitnih preduzeća su i društveno najodgovornija preduzeća. Istraživanja u SAD i Australiji ukazuju da su potrošači spremni da plate i nešto višu cenu za proizvode i usluge ako znaju da preduzeća podržavaju i sprovode društveno korisne akcije. Marketing pomaže preduzeću da na najbolji način ostvari svoju društvenu odgovornost. Jačanje društvene odgovornosti preduzeća dovelo je povećanog interesovanja za marketing etiku.

Koncepti društvene odgovornosti
1.

Profitna odgovornost vlasnici/akcionari 2.

Odgovornost prema stejkholderima potrošači zaposleni dobavljači/distributeri dobavljači/distributeri

3.

Društvena odgovornost zaštita ekološkog okruženja – tzv. zeleni marketing opsluživanje opšte javnosti – tzv. uzročni marketing

Neki teoretičari sugerišu da ukupna društvena odgovornost preduzeća ima četiri komponente: komponente:
Ekonomsku – da se posluje profitabilno Legalističku – da se poštuju zakoni Etičku – da se bude fer i pravedan u poslovnim transakcijama Filantropsku – da se preduzeće ponaša kao dobar sugradjanin

Održivi razvoj – nova teorija u Održivi društvenoj odgovornosti
Društveno odgovorno preduzeće će poslovati tako što će fokusirati svetske probleme i na njihovo rešavanje gledati kao na šansu da uveća profit, a da u isto vreme pomogne čovečanstvu. Parnterstvo sa svim stejkholderima postalo je značajan element u poslovanju širom sveta.

Prosvećeni (enlightened) marketing
Prema futuristima, marketing preduzeća treba da futuristima, podržava najbolje dugoročne performanse marketing sektora. Prosvećeni marketing je zasnovan na pet ključnih principa: principa: marketing mora biti orijentisan na potrošače marketing treba da se odlikuje inovativnošću u središtu marketinga je kreiranje i isporučivanje vrednosti marketing mora da ima jasnu misiju marketing mora da bude zasnovan na konceptu društvenog marketinga

Holistički marketing
Holizam Holizam – pojam grčkog porekla ‘’sve’’, ‘’celokupno’’, ‘’totalno’’. Polazi od toga da je sve važno za marketing i da je zato potrebno primenjivati širi, integrisani pristup poslovanju preduzeća. Pomaže preduzeću da kreira i isporuči pravu vrednost potrošačima. Pomaže menadžerima da odgovore na tri ključna pitanja:
Kako preduzeće da identifikuje novu vrednost za potrošače? Kako preduzeće da efikasno kreira vrednost koja više obećava potrošačima? Kako preduzeće da koristi svoje sposobnosti i infrastrukturu u efikasnijem isporučivanju nove vrednosti potrošačima?

Komponente holističkog marketinga
Marketing odnosa Integrisani marketing Interni marketing Marketing performansi

Marketing odnosa
Cilj je da se izgrade duboki, postojani odnosi sa ljudima izgrade duboki postojani i organizacijama koji mogu neposredno ili posredno da utiču na uspeh marketinških aktivnosti preduzeća. Ključni stejkholderi: stejkholderi: potrošači zaposleni marketing partneri (kanali, dobavljači, distributeri, dileri, agencije) članovi finansijske zajednice (akcionari, investitori, analitičari)

Poslednja inovacija u marketingu odnosa jeste stvaranje marketing mreže sa najprofitabilnijim stejkholderima preduzeća.

Integrisani marketing
Cilj je kreiranje, komuniciranje i isporučivanje vrednosti potrošačima. Mnogo različitih marketinških aktivnosti komunicira i isporučuje vrednost potrošačima, i kada su koordinisane, marketinške aktivnosti koordinisane, maksimiraju njihov zajednički efekat. Postoji stalno insistiranje na optimalnoj kombinaciji marketing miksa u preduzeću.

Interni marketing
Obezbedjuje da se svi u preduzeću strogo pridržavaju marketinških principa, posebno senior menadžeri. principa, Interni marketing treba sprovoditi na dva nivoa: nivoa:
Prvi nivo podrazumeva da sve marketing funkcije – lična prodaja, privredna propaganda, servis potrošača, proizvodni menadžment i marketing istraživanja moraju raditi zajedno. Drugi nivo podrazumeva da ostale poslovne funkcije u preduzeću moraju takodje razmišljati marketinški odnosno u interesu potrošača.

Marketing performansi
Radi se o finansijskoj odgovornosti menadžmenta prema vlasnicima i upravnom odboru preduzeća. Društvena odgovornost preduzeća ide dalje od interesa pojedinačnog preduzeća i definiše njegovo mesto u širem društvenom kontekstu. Marketing performansi obuhvata: obuhvata: povratne efekte od primene marketinških aktivnosti u poslovanju preduzeća (prihodi od prodaje, vrednosti brenda) šire aspekte tog poslovanja kao što su zakonske, etičke, društvene i ekološke posledice na društvo u celini

Arranged Marriage

...The way in which arranged marriages are handled determines whether or not they are cruel and old-fashioned.

Not only are the marriages arranged by the parents but also by older relatives as well. They believe that the parents know all about their children so they are capable of choosing a suitable partner whom may enable the couple to have a successful marriage, all though if either the bride or groom disagrees the wedding cannot go on. The details of the marriage are set out in a contract which is a legal document. Hinduism is another group of people who have arranged marriages but not to the same extent. Hindus believe that a marriage is based on more than physical or emotional attraction and at one stage Hindus were strict about arranged marriages where the parent’s decision was final.

When the parents pick someone they are drawing from experience typically 20 years of married life and they went through the same process no doubt.

Arranged Marriages

...Arranged marriages: painful history or our reality? Professor ENG 113 Marriage has always been a very difficult and controversial topic to be discussed in any part of the world. The reason why, is that it’s always been connected directly proportional to the happiness in personal life. During previous twenty centuries, values of contentment and success have been changing radically due to the political and most important religious streams. Despite all the signs that have been encrusted so powerfully on our humanity perception, many parts of our world still promote and believe in arranged marriages. Although the Western Culture is considered to be outspoken and free, does it really manage to escape the phenomenon of arranged marriages? Regardless of what is the reason, an arranged marriage should never be taken as the right answer to the eternal question of finding personal happiness. In the earlier centuries arranged marriages were performed on the wealthier levels of society. Various reasons were embraced by this act: gaining more authority, power, money, family name. The only consistently overlooked fact was the couple’s opinion and feelings. Despite this reality, powerful families would arrange their children’s marriage in order to expand their influence, financial stability, history.

Arranged Marriage

...Arranged Marriage Arranged marriage is the type of marriage where parents pick your future husband or wife for you. It is a complicated matter according to Asian and Middle Eastern countries like India, Japan, Iraq, Iran and many other counties. It is practiced in many societies. For example, in the Indian culture, parents have been choosing a suitable life partner for centuries. For many cultures, denying an arranged marriage is a sign of disrespect towards one’s family. There is a large process that the parents go through to find a suitable life partner. In Japan, for instance, "when a woman reaches the marriageable age of 25, she and her parents compile a packet of information about her, including a photograph of her in a kimono and descriptions of her family background, education, hobbies, accomplishments and interests. Her parents then inquire among their friends and acquaintances to see if anyone knows a man who would be a suitable husband for her" (the Asia Society's Video Letter from Japan: My Family, 1988). Usually, the most important aspect of choosing a suitable spouse is the bond between the two families, rather than the relationship between the couple being married. Property or land with the aim of securing social status sometimes seals marriage agreements. The boy and the girl have to agree or disagree for a marriage proposal, set up by his or her parents, after the first meeting. For Indians that are born and brought up in America have a difficult time adjusting...

From those comes an important aspect of the Indian culture that is the idea of an arranged marriage.
