The Market
Overzicht
Every business operates within a market, but not every market looks the same. Some are crowded with dozens of competitors fighting over price, while others are quiet niches where a single specialist thrives. Understanding how markets work, who the customers are, and where the opportunities lie is the starting point for every commercial decision a business makes.
In this lesson you will explore what defines a market, how businesses measure its size and their share of it, and why dividing customers into segments unlocks smarter marketing. You will also compare mass-market and niche strategies and examine the ways firms compete to win and keep customers.
Doelstellingen
- Understand the importance of marketing: satisfying customer needs, building customer relationships, keeping customer loyalty, market orientation and product orientation, market share and analysis, niche and mass marketing
- Understand how businesses respond to changes in the market: changing customer needs, changing consumer spending patterns, increased competition
- Understand how businesses use market segmentation to target customers by identifying market segments: location, demographics, lifestyle, income, age
