It's Super Bowl LXI Coming On February 14th--Valentine's Day. Presentation And Promotion Under The 9P's Of Marketing. What About The L Or 50th?

I was just thinking of the Roman Numerals and found a Marketing presentation 11 years ago. 

Super Bowl L or Super Bowl 50 kicked off after the 2015 season. 

The NFL made the change to Super Bowl 50, one time. CBS was the network. I guess they didn't like the idea of L for "Loser?"  Instead of naming it Super Bowl L using the traditional Roman numerals as in previous Super Bowls, this "special" game was promoted in Arabic numerals as in "50."

Another way to describe the Super Bowl 50; it can be called the "Golden Super Bowl," being located in the Golden State (California); plus the 50th anniversary is named the "golden anniversary."

ESPN and ABC will telecast the LXI game in the United States in 2027.

It will be played at SoFi Stadium home of the Rams and the Chargers. This will be the first Super Bowl held at the home of two Los Angeles teams. 

In the 9P's of Marketing I define "Presentation:"

• This “P” or “Presentation” is the act of 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. I guess I'd add players or employees. 

The act of presenting may be 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. takes it to another level. A shaky, noisy level or chair or nearby home.

I am a senior Forensic Marketing Expert, Advertising/Marketing consultant with Londre Marketing Consultants, LLC plus I teach Marketing and Advertising. I own a copyright for this concept, the Nine P’s/9 P's ©2007, which augments the Marketing Mix (Product, Price, Promotion and Place) or the 4P’s by the American Marketing Association, Neil Borden and Jerome McCarthy in the study and practices of Marketing.

The Nine P's/9P's help identify marketing problems in a number of areas and help develop marketing’s objectives, strategies, tactics and solutions.  The Nine P's are insightful. In Marketing. the "Customer," or potential customers are king, but are missing in the 4P's.

I consult and teach using the concepts and practices of the Nine P's/9P's of Marketing.

In the study and practice of Marketing, Marketing and Brand Managers develop plans, strategies and tactics. The Nine P’s include these important components:

• People (The football and sporting target market and more.)
• It's about Segmentation and Targeting; "People" or targeting has almost always been left out of the traditional "Marketing Mix."  Almost every diagram includes the four P's with "Consumer" or "People" or "Potential Buyers" in the middle of the circle. There needs to be more focus on the "Customer," or "People." 
• "People," market segments utilizing demographics, geographics, psychographics, behavioral characteristics and technographics are a vital component of the 9P's. Once a target market is chosen, the organization can develop its marketing strategies to target this market segment. 
• There are still questions:  Can the segments be accessed?  Marketing strategies need to be adapted for the different tiers or segments. Instead of viewing the market as a uniform group of customers with similar potential, the firm needs to view them as distinct groups or segments with differing potential.
• Product
• Place (Distribution)
• Price
• Planning
• Promotion
• Partners, with plenty of "Partners" when dealing with "Presentation" and "Promotion" of the local, national and global exposure of the Super Bowl. 
• Presentation
• Passion

Elon Musk On Branding? Logo Is A Small And An Important Part Under "Product." With 9P's Of Marketing

Elon Musk in the news. What a surprise. Elon Musk said

• "The best product in the world shouldn't even need a logo."
• "You shouldn't even have to have your name on the product. It's just obvious. Everybody knows."

Would everyone know? Quality? Product attributes and features. There are more elements under Marketing than branding.

What is branding?

• Branding is the strategic process of creating a distinct, recognizable identity for a product, service, or company to differentiate it from competitors and build customer loyalty. It involves crafting a brand's mission, visual elements (logos, colors), and voice to build equity and influence how it is perceived.

Musk's logic is simple. If you build the undeniable, undisputed best thing in the world, everybody uses it. 

But what about the other Marketing components related to branding and Marketing:

• Different "Product" characteristics
• "Price" or Pricing
• Targeting or "People"
• "Place" or Distribution.
• "Partners" 
• I would say he can generate "Passion" if he stays out of politics.

Musk talks that since everybody uses it, you don't need to slap your branding all over it to prove it's yours.

I agree a logo is one part of branding and Marketing, but it's a form of identification. 

There's so much more.

I like copy and selling points. I like finding Marketing opportunities and solving Marketing problems using the nine P's of Marketing. I like teaching them. 

I use my 9P's to illustrate Marketing examples in the classroom, in court as an expert witness, in seminars and to solve Marketing problems and to find opportunities. 

My 9P's of Marketing do include these important concepts, practices and components:

I am using the 9P's with Planning, People, Product, Price, Promotion, Place, Partners, Presentation and Passion to illustrate an unusual insight or example. To find opportunities and problems in Marketing.

• Planning and Research. 


• Designing Products
• Finding copy points is part of the creative and promotional planning. 
• Planning for marketing activities, objectives, strategies and tactics. Viewership, revenue, sales. All sales, whether in services, cars or autos, fashion, sports, amusement parks, hotels, resorts, autos, fast food, retail sales or tires, refreshments or cereal, as three examples. 
• From the founder of Intuit, Scott Cook, said: " A brand is no longer what we tell the consumer it is -- (maybe from Marketing Research "it never was" is my comment) it is what consumers (“People” in the 9P’s) tell each other it is.
• People (Segmentation and Targeting)
• Consumers and users, as in shoppers. Auto dealers, Fashion consumers. Add travelers. 
• In my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users. 
• Product and Services, includes cars, trucks, space exploration, airports, sports teams, people and celebrities too. I teach that perfection resides in quality, not quantity.
• Place (Distribution), includes retail and online. How about locations of car dealerships, airports, team stadiums, amusement parks and resorts?  
• Price or Pricing, many contingency plans needed.  
• 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. 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, advertising mascots can fit here, too. Signage would fit here. 
• Collateral Materials
• Direct Marketing (also referred to as Action or Direct Response Advertising)
• Interactive/Internet/Web, Digital Media, Social Media:  
• Events and Experiences, sampling
• Public Relations/PR
• One stop shopping is more important than ever. 

• Partners/Alliances, can be one of the most powerful of the 9P's if researched, performed and handled well.                 
• There should be moving forward towards shared goals or goals. 

• 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. I've added "culture," too. I'm adding "culture," too.

• Passion, including consumers and employees. Think about the lines sometimes of consumers waiting for a new Apple product

LA28 2028 Olympics In Oklahoma? What Gives, With 9P's Of Marketing?

LA28: Yes the '28 Olympics will be in LA and Oklahoma.

The L.A. Games will have more sports and athletes than any Olympics in history, 

We call this organization and "Place," under the 9P's of Marketing. There are trade off for expenses or keeping expenses down. 

While the majority of the events are in and around Los Angeles. the softball tournament will be in Oklahoma City’s Devon Park, which hosts the Women’s College World Series every year, and the canoe slalom will take place at Riversport OKC. Riversport is the official Olympic training center for rowing and canoe/kayak.

They are trying to save money, especially on construction of venues. 

These Olympic games will use existing infrastructure instead of building new venues.  

Southern California has many great college softball teams with existing facilities, but it would be difficult to cater and be suitable for the Olympic athletes, media and fans.

Moving the softball and canoe slalom events outside of Southern California is a trade-off, though. The athletes at those events will not have some of the Olympic experiences that others in L.A. will, but organizers were mindful in making the competition schedule to ensure that athletes could attend either the opening or closing ceremonies despite competing far away.

Every Olympics wrestles with finding the perfect venue, and for the L.A. Games, which have more sports and athletes than any Olympics in history, that calculus is harder than most. There are no perfect solutions.

To Sell The Longest, Non-Stop Flight In The World, It Takes Promotion And More, Under The 9P’s Of Marketing

On October 11, 2018, Singapore Airlines launched the New World’s Longest Flight Today, from Newark to Singapore in 19 Hours. 

It’s a 9,534 mile, non-stop flight. 

These flights are long and are being promoted as the longest flights, in the world.


For the passengers, you’ll see the airline develop special programs (Products and Services) on wellness, nutrition, hydration, air quality, entertainment, physical systems for stimulation, plus special foods, services and more.

And if you want to catch up on your movies, how about 11.4 movies if you eat while watching and no naps. Now that’s another consumer benefit. 

The plane is an Airbus A350-900ULR (Ultra Long Range).

Pricing. Inflation And Tariffs Have It. How Difficult It Is To Be In Retailing? With 9P's Of Marketing

Retailing is tough. I can use my 9P's to analyze opportunities and problems in Marketing with my 9P's. 

This week I wanted t buy a pair of shorts for the gym.

I went to Tilly's a pretty large retailer on Second Street in Long Beach. 

They had three brands to choose from and the sales person said "you would probably like the Nike ones the best." 

But when I went to pay there were three prices. He blamed inflation and tariffs.

What would I pay? $50., or $49.99 or $54.99?

I asked nicely "could I talk to the manager?"

I got a decent discount and bought two pairs. I liked how the sales person handled it. I could have gone to Amazon and "shopped"

• 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. 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, advertising mascots can fit here, too. Signage would fit here. 
• Collateral Materials
• Direct Marketing (also referred to as Action or Direct Response Advertising)
• Interactive/Internet/Web, Digital Media, Social Media:  
• Events and Experiences, sampling
• Public Relations/PR
• One stop shopping is more important than ever. 

• Partners/Alliances, can be one of the most powerful of the 9P's if researched, performed and handled well.                 
• There should be moving forward towards shared goals or goals. 

• 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. I've added "culture," too. I'm adding "culture," too.

• Passion, including consumers and employees. Think about the lines sometimes of consumers waiting for a new Apple product

Tough Or Easy Branding Decisions? Or Dumb? Washington Redskins To Washington Commanders With Warrior Spear, And 9P's Of Marketing

Tough or easy branding decisions? Or dumb? 

The Washington Redskins name was used for 87 years, yes… 87 years. And are they still showing Indian imagery? Seems so.  

The team retired “Redskins” in July 2020. Rebranded in ‘22

The Washington franchise began in Boston, Mass. in '32 as the Braves, became the Boston Redskins in '33, and moved to D.C. in '37, retaining their name.

Their branding changed to the  Commanders in ‘22. 

This week Washington Commanders unveiled a new alternate logo with an Indian spear through their team’s “W.”

Is it smart branding? Cultural appropriation? Harmful, appropriate symbolism?

Washington posted images of a “new alternate logo’’ on social media.

In media the following quote was from the Association on American Indian Affairs. “The Washington Commanders' decision to update their logo is disappointing and inappropriate to say the least... it is time to stop repeating this cycle and listen to Native Peoples who have been clear, consistent, and unwavering on this issue: We are not your mascot.’’

I like Marketing. I like Promotion, one of my nine P's of Marketing

I like advertising, which is one of the eight components under Promotion in my 9P's of Marketing. 

I like copy and selling points. I like finding Marketing opportunities and solving Marketing problems using the nine P's of Marketing. I like teaching them. 

I use my 9P's to illustrate Marketing examples in the classroom, in court as an expert witness, in seminars and to solve Marketing problems and to find opportunities. 

My 9P's of Marketing do include these important concepts, practices and components:

I am using the 9P's with Planning, People, Product, Price, Promotion, Place, Partners, Presentation and Passion to illustrate an unusual insight or example. To find opportunities and problems in Marketing.

• Planning and Research. 


• Finding copy points is part of the creative and promotional planning. 
• Planning for marketing activities, objectives, strategies and tactics. Viewership, revenue, sales. All sales, whether in services, fashion, sports, amusement parks, hotels, resorts, autos, fast food, retail sales or tires, refreshments or cereal, as three examples. 
• 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.
• People (Segmentation and Targeting)
• Consumers and users, as in fans, shoppers. Fashion consumers. Add travelers. 
• In my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users. 
• Product and Services, includes airports, sports teams, people and celebrities too. I teach that perfection resides in quality, not quantity.
• Place (Distribution), includes retail and online. How about locations of airports, team stadiums, amusement parks and resorts?  
• Price or Pricing, many contingency plans needed.  
• 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:

I guess I’m sensitive since our book club is reading “Empire of the Summer Moon: Quanah Parker and the Rise and Fall of the Comanches, the Most Powerful Indian Tribe in American History by S. C. Gwynne.

Do you know that in ratified treaties, approximately 370 treaties were officially signed and ratified by the U.S. Senate during the formal treaty-making era (1778–1871). Various sources state that all 370 ratified treaties have been partially or completely broken by the federal government
