where we see booms and fitna two
academics who added three crucial ps to
the marketing mix
physical evidence people and processes
these new additions saw the marketing
mix evolve into the seven
ps or the extended marketing mix as it's
often known
the needs wants and expectations of
customers are constantly changing and developing

revisit the 7ps formula
so that you can accurately segment your
market only then can you meet
and exceed the requirements of your
customers and also keep ahead of
industry competitors
so let's dive a little deeper into the
seven ps of the marketing mix
number one product product refers to a
physical product
service or experience basically anything
that's being sold
you need to make sure that your product
is right for the market
in that it satisfies or exceeds the
expectations of the customer
number two place this is where you
choose to distribute your offerings
it could be a warehouse a high street
store an ecommerce shop
or a cloud-based platform wherever you
choose to distribute
you need to make sure that it's
accessible to your audience and that
you've taken your competitors into consideration
consideration
because where you choose to distribute
your products can dictate things like
your product type and your budget
number three price price refers to the
cost of your product service or experience
experience
your cost should reflect your customers
perceived value of what you're offering
it should also be in line with your
budget and take into account
industry competition if not you jeopardize

marketing
advertising and sales techniques you

such as tv
radio billboards and newspapers or more
modern methods
like pop-ups push notifications native advertising
advertising
and email marketing or social media
marketing your chosen promotional
methods have great influencing power
over the perception of your brand and
its long-term success whichever
promotional methods you choose
if you want to break through the noise
and be heard your data gathering and
market segmentation analysis have to be
meticulous and well thought out

the right place and at the right time
number five physical evidence physical
evidence in the sense of the marketing mix
mix
generally takes on two forms one
evidence that a service or purchase took place
place
and two proof or confirmation that your
brand exists
physical evidence of a transaction comes
in the form of things like receipts
tracking information and invoices
whereas proof of the existence of your
brand is highly visual
it could be the appearance of your
building your social media channels
your website and logo or your business
cards choosing an unfamiliar brand or
product is risky for a customer
they need to know that you're legitimate
and physical evidence achieves this
number six people people essentially
refers to anyone who's involved in the
brand or product
it could be those selling it designing
it creating it
managing teams or representative
customers when you think about it
anyone who comes into contact with your
customers can make an impression
positively or negatively and this can
impact the perception of your brand
there's no use in creating an amazing
product having a lively social media
presence and a strong brand
if your employees aren't behind you you
need to recruit people who will engage
with your company culture and add value
to your organization

extended marketing mix

buying process

isolation for example
