segment of the market as

distribution.

needed:
 Two or more parties (either persons or organizations)
with unsatisfied needs;
 A desire and ability on their part to be satisfied;
 An opportunity for the parties to communicate; and
 Something of value (idea, goods, or service) to
exchange

14. Needs and Wants
 Occurs when a person
feels physiologically
deprived of basic
necessities like food,
clothing, and shelter.
 Hence, technically,
marketers do not have to
create needs because
these are physiologically
basic.
 On the other hand, is felt
need that is shaped by a
person’s knowledge, culture,
and personality.
 Wants are forms of human
needs take as shaped by a
person’s culture and
individuality.
 Other authors define want as
processed needs.

15. What is a Market?
 A market is not just a place or a physical
structure. More significantly, market means –
(1) people (2) with the desire and (3) with the
ability to buy a specific product.

16. Segment or Target Market
 This pertains to one or more specific groups of
potentials consumers toward which an
organization focuses its marketing program.
Target market pertains to the segment of the

factors, which are uncontrollable, such as social,
economic, technological, competitive, and political
or regulatory factors.

19. The Marketing Plan
 This is a plan that
integrates the marketing
mix to provide a good,
service, or idea to
prospective buyers.
 The plan basically answers
three questions-
1) Where are we now?;
2) Where do we want to
go?; and
3) How do we get there?

20. Some basic parts of a full-blown marketing program
include-
1) Executive summary;
2) Description of the market, which covers competition and the
