Marketing Forum Topics

From Competing in Existing Markets or Industries to Redefining Market Boundaries & Creating New Market Spaces
Traditional markets are shrinking as new competitors sprout and grow. Because of the tightening market space, companies resort to a fierce battle for market share which erodes profitability. Those with superior strategies and superior resources succeed while the rest content themselves with the crumbs left by the big players. How should you strategize for markets that are becoming overly competitive? You can make competition irrelevant by redefining market boundaries; discover new products; and creating new market spaces. Instead of competing in a market that has become red and bloody as a result of intense fighting by competitors, you can opt to look for new waters – blue oceans – that you can dominate.


Digital Marketing
Digital Marketing is the practice of promoting products and services using digital distribution channels to reach consumers in a timely, relevant, personal and cost-effective manner. It democratizes communications media channels allowing a stand-alone marketer to broadcast his message, build traffic to his website, and interact with either a mass market or niche targeted audience in the most cost-efficient manner. It recognizes the changing consumer behavior in media consumption, hence pushing for a more adaptive marketing strategy that either reinforces their communication message and positioning in traditional media or provides small and medium size companies the opportunity to target an internet and mobile-savvy market without the need for any other media channel. The session will provide a few successful case studies locally and regionally. 

Customer Relationship Management

CRM aims to enrich the brand experience of its most important customer base through more accurate response and efficiency to sustain brand differentiation and customer loyalty. Through effective customer data mining it can be used to customize and optimize marketing strategies especially for the most profitable customer segment, avoid waste of resources on less desirable ones. This means knowing who or what customers to run after, and whom to leave alone as doing the reverse is disastrous. This means keeping intimately in-touch with your desired customer base.
