Where Do You Place The New Proposed Tariffs In The 9P's Of Marketing?

 Under "Place" and "Price," two of the Marketing Mix Variables and Two of the nine P's of Marketing.

What is "Place" it's the variable and combination of parts in getting the Product or Service to consumers ("People.") or users. Distribution. Logistics. 

What is "Price?" It's all aspects regarding pricing. 

You need to factor in tariffs. 

\
The amount of money a consumer is willing to pay to obtain the product or service. 

Pricing includes wholesale/retail/promotional prices, discounts, trade-in allowances, quantity discounts, credit terms, sales and payment periods and credit terms. 

“Price” decision making also involves adjusting prices concerning the competitive environment, economic situations and involve buyer perceptions.

Summing up, “Pricing” is the sum of the values that customers exchange for the benefits of having or using the product or service. 

The Nine P’s include these important concepts, practices and components:

• People (Segmentation and Targeting)
• In my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users. 
• Product and Services
• Place (Distribution)
• Price or Pricing 
• Planning and Research. From the founder of Intuit, Scott Cook, said: " A brand is no longer what we tell the consumer it is -- (maybe from Marketing Research never was is my comment) it is what consumers (“People” in the 9P’s) tell each other it is.

• Promotion: 
• There are eight (8) major, strategic components or communication elements which are personal and non-personal communication activities. 
• The activities that communicate the merits of the overall product include:
• Personal Selling/ Sales Force: Sales persons
• Listen more than you talk. People who listen more, learn more, plus helps you position your service/product/solution or offering. 
• Advertising: 
Like Super Bowl advertising in February for Super Bowl LVIII on CBS.
You may not know that Google, Facebook and Amazon attract 46 cents of every dollar spent by advertisers. In fact, Google and Facebook are the dominant digital advertising market vendors in the US, accounting for a combined 48.4% of total digital ad spending.

• Partners/Alliances
• Presentation: 
• The act or acts of strategically presenting any of the different 9P’s© and/or components to your customers, suppliers, wholesalers, retailers, sales force, marketing intermediaries, clients, employees, partners, and/or others. 

  Presentation aspects may be signs, symbols or images that represent something; a descriptive or persuasive account (as a sales person of the product or service). Something set forth for the attention of mind of your targets ("People") and media audiences.

It’s About Reach, Frequency And Continuity: The Media And Audience Numbers of 70 Million Are Impressive For Netflix.

In its ad tier, Netflix has reported 70 Million Users, Globally. Reach is the total number of viewers. Frequency is how many times do you reach them and continuity is over what period of time. 

Every brand should have a story to tell.

But are you telling the right story?

Is your brand and story reaching the right people, potential purchasers?

Companies and brands can gain a deeper understanding of their target market and target audiences – and how to reach them. And for Netflix there's a way to reach the consumers or "People," in my 9P's of Marketing

For a company which once didn’t care or actually dismissed they and the subsribers are making it all work.

In a statement they reported that . “Now, over 50% of new Netflix sign-ups are for the ads plan in ad-supported countries.”

The numbers are trendy up. It was 22 million in January. 40 Million in May and now 70 Million in November.

As a media planner, most companies do not make global media buys. There are too many concerns over creative, uniqueness of different marketplaces. 

But the numbers are impressive for Netflix.

Did You Know AI-Generated Works Or Content Can Not Be Copyrighted? Work As A Marketing Expert, Marketing And Advertising Teacher, And As A Marketing And Business Consultant.

The goal of content advertising is to increase brand awareness.  AI generated work may not be copyrighted. How do these concepts fit in. But first....

What is content? 

Content in advertising is content that is created with the intention of being promoted through paid advertising channels. 

Content advertising differs from content marketing, which focuses on organic growth and unpaid promotional, social media channels. 

Content advertising uses Google Ads, paid social media, and sponsored placements. Content marketing   uses organic channels like SEO, email, and social media. Not paid as in advertising

Content marketing can include a variety of content formats, such as: blog posts, videos, ebooks, whitepapers and reports or studies. 

I work as a Marketing Expert in legal matters, testified 55 times. I'm a Marketing And Advertising Teacher, And as a Marketing and Business Consultant. I learned that a federal judge did uphold a ruling that art created by Artificial intelligence cannot be copyrighted. There needs to be a human touch. Not just a connection. 

The judge agreed with the U.S. Copyright Office. They denied protection for artwork if it was created by AI. There needs to be "human involvement ." 

They stated that "the Nexis between the human mind and creative expression" is important and a crucial element for a wok to be eligible for copyright protection. 

A couple of questions come to mind. 

• How much human involvement?
• If you use protected images for creating new content. 
• Who is being targeted as in my "People," in the 9P's.
• Is it paid or organic. 

The Nine P’s include these important concepts, practices and components:

• • People (Segmentation and Targeting)
  • In my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users.

Found An Interesting Example Of The Nine P's Of Marketing, Starting With "Product" And "People."

I have looked at Moolah Kicks, the first brand focused or targeted to the women's basketball shoe market. 

Under "People" or Segmentation and Targeting in my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users. 

Well how about tennis or athletic shoes for only Women? Under Product, and during and after Covid pandemic, Moolay Kicks introduced the Phantom 1 and Neovolt Pro shoes. 

There are examples of Partners, too. 

In that Moolah Kicks has a star. She's WNBA's Chicago Sky Courtney Williams. She has her own signature shoe with 60 NIL partners. Partners and Alliances are another "P" under 9P's.

How about "Place?" Following their launch in 2021 they were in 140 Dick's stores. That was hree years ago. Now they are in 500 Dick's stores.

Targeting: Mem Versus Women's Voting Trends. Looking Back 40+ Years. This Year's Election.

It use to be men voted more than women. Looking back to the 1980's. 

Not true in today's world. Women are voting more in larger numbers and with more frequency.

And besides the gender issue in voting, it is who do they as in men versus women favor as their candidate.

It hasn’t always been this way. Before 1980, men consistently voted in higher percentages than women. Especially in presidential elections..

That’s because of another trend: the gap between how men and women view issues; it's simply their views are different or differ.  Some candidates have seen the proportional differences and have changed their messaging and media spending. 

In mid October in a USA TODAY/Suffolk University national poll, women decisively backed Kamala Harris. The survey said 53% to 36%. 

Not the same for men. Men favored  Donald Trump.  In the support for Trump, it was 53% to 37%. Men versus Women. 

So it looks like today, more women are voting again and that favors Harris. We will see if margins hold; it could be that its a huge disparity since a gender gap in 1980.

In the study of Marketing, both candidates are Product. And they both spend a ton on Promotion, especially advertising

The Nine P’s include these important concepts, practices and components:

• People (Segmentation and Targeting)

Coupons Come Under “Promotion” and “Sales Promotion” and “Price” In The 9P’s Of Marketing. Supercuts is targeting Non Users And "Haters" With A Coupon That Raises The Price Of A Haircut

Sound dumb. Or trying too hard. 

With falling revenues and shutting down stores, Supercuts comes up with a gimmick under Sales Promotion in the nine P’s of Marketing

Supercuts needs a marketing or promotional strategy that works and delivers.

They have been closing stores and fewer people are getting haircuts. Every four weeks has now stretched to six, seven or eight weeks. Covid changed the purchase habits.

What did they come up with? A sales promotion gimmick? A reverse coupon. Supposedly this could be a Super Dumb idea or one that stands out. Or both.

Supercuts launched a new campaign which they are trying to be funny. The coupon raises the price of a haircut.

Supercuts calls it the Real Dumb coupon. They are targeting non users and “People” under the nine P’s.

Their digital director employee said:

“The brand has been straight down the middle for a long time, so presenting anything comedic or self-aware is pretty unique. What we loved about the coupon is, it’s a stupid idea but it’s undergirded by a truth, which is that a good cohort of non-Supercuts guests think $65 or $75 is what they should be paying for a haircut every four, five, six weeks.”

So aren’t they with their promotional strategies to some who don’t get it, keeping them on the outside looking in?

Worst Halloween Candy in 2024 and Probably 2025? With The 9P's Of Marketing.

First I will describe it or them? 

What it looks like it doesn't taste like?

They defy logic, for candy purchasers or aficionados.

For the majority of trick-or-treaters, they’re a "trick" on Halloween night.

May have an undeniable nostalgic charm.

They are orange-colored.

They can have the texture of stale marshmallow. So they are not candy corn, but candy corn is on the list of worst candies for some and fav for others. 

You can't buy them at the circus. 

Least loved in a national survey of candy purchasers.

Has held the worst candy position for years.

Spongy. Sometimes that's good, but, in the minds of purchasers and consumers, not in describing this item. 

Banana-flavored, is that flavor real or artificial? 

Adults and kids would rather not find in their trick-or-treat bag.

What are they?

Circus Peanuts, which taste more like sugar and banana than peanuts.  

What's number one. Usually M&M's or Reese's Peanut Butter cups, which tastes like sweet peanuts with a chocolate covering.

I'm writing this in 2024 and Circus Peanuts will probably be ranked the worst candy for 2025, too. 

In the study and practice of Marketing, brand, advertising and marketing managers develop plans, strategies and tactics. 

The Nine P’s include these important concepts, practices and components:

• People (Segmentation and Targeting)
• In my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users. 
• Product and Services
• Place (Distribution)
• Price or Pricing 
• Planning
• Promotion: 
• There are eight (8) major, strategic components or communication elements which are personal and non-personal communication activities. 
• The activities that communicate the merits of the overall product include:
• Personal Selling/ Sales Force: Sales persons
• Listen more than you talk. People who listen more, learn more, plus helps you position your service/product/solution or offering. 
• Advertising: 
Like Super Bowl advertising in February for Super Bowl LVIII on CBS.
You may not know that Google, Facebook and Amazon attract 46 cents of every dollar spent by advertisers. In fact, Google and Facebook are the dominant digital advertising market vendors in the US, accounting for a combined 48.4% of total digital ad spending. Think about this expression "It is only creative if the product or service sells." I wanted to add "It is only good media spending if it sells."
• Sales Promotion
• Collateral Materials
• Direct Marketing (also referred to as Action or Direct Response Advertising)
• Interactive/Internet/Web, Digital Media, Social Media:  
• Events and Experiences
• Public Relations/PR
• With inflation at increasing higher levels, we are seeing brick and mortar retailers needing physical traffic to survive. Gas prices at record levels are keeping customers from driving more. One stop shopping is more important than ever. 
• Partners/Alliances
• Presentation: 
• The act or acts of strategically presenting any of the different 9P’s© and/or components to your customers, suppliers, wholesalers, retailers, sales force, marketing intermediaries, clients, employees, partners, and/or others. 

  Presentation aspects may be signs, symbols or images that represent something; a descriptive or persuasive account (as a sales person of the product or service). Something set forth for the attention of mind of your targets ("People") and media audiences.

• Passion

Significant Change On Travel Refunds From Department of Transportation: I’d Put These Six Points, Under "Product" And "Price" In The 9P’s Of Marketing.

 Thinking about refunds which you will receive.

Know more and be better prepared. 

The Key is three hours domestically and six hour for international travel.

The Department of Transportation (DOT) has detailed when airlines owe travelers a refund. 

All airlines in the USA will now be required to refund travelers for significant changes to their flight.

What would a major change or significant change look like?

"People" and passengers are asking what constitutes a “significant change?”

1. A departure or arrival time that is more than three hours from the original time for domestic flights.
2. A departure or arrival time that is more than six hours from the original time for international flights.
3. Changes to the departure or arrival airport.
4. An increase in the number of connections.
5. A downgrade to a lower class of service.
6. A connection at a different airport or flights on different planes that are less accessible or accommodating to a person with a disability.

A New Tune And Network. Put This Grammy Network Change Under “Place” and “Promotion,” Under 9P’s of Marketing, From CBS to ABC and Disney, Under 9P’s of Marketing.

A new tune and a new network. 

Social media, Celebrities, TV viewing have changed.  

It will take over 50 years to change. It's the Grammys which will be on ABC. 

Disney and ABC now have the Grammys, first change for music awards in 50+ Years

Since 1973, the annual music awards program, on CBS, will move to Disney in 2027, in a ten year deal.

Here’s hitting a triple or trifecta.  In 1927, Disney et al will have rights to show the Grammys, the Super Bowl and the Oscars in 2027.

While viewership is way down, there was an increase in audience from last year to this year. In 2013 viewership was 40 million. But in 2024 viewership was 16.9 million.
