COMPONENTS OF A MODERN MIS (MARKETING INFORMATION SYSTEM)
Everyone needs to observe the environment but MARKETERS have two advantages:Disciplined methods for collecting informationMore time for interacting with customers & observe
competition
Marketers understand and have extensive information on consumption patterns
Companies with superior information enjoy a competitive advantage

(CHAP 3)
Marketing Intelligenc
e Activities(CHAP 3)
Marketing Research(CHAP 4)
What managers think they
need
What managers really need

feasible
MIS should be a cross
between:
INTERNAL RECORDS
Order-to-payment cycle• Review of sales process & its complete transaction flow• Doing it accurately and timely is the key
Sales Information Systems• Timely & accurate reports on current sales• Need to correctly interpret sales data (red or yellow Mustang?)
Database, Data Warehousing and Data Mining• Databases of Customer & product, salespersons’ databases• Use them to interact correctly with customers
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 5
MARKETING INTELLIGENCE

ANALYZING THE MACROENVIRONMENT
Successful companies recognize and respond profitably to unmet needs and trends
Fad – an “unpredictable”, short-lived and without social, economic, political significance. (a new style of clothing)
Trend – a direction of sequence of events that has some momentum and more predictable and durable than fads. (eating out trends in Pakistan)
Megatrends – large social, economic, political and technological changes that are slow to form and [once in place], they influence us for sometime. (access to cellular services all over Pakistan)

One of the major objectives of Marketing research
Marketing’s tasks to identify opportunities and also give measured
forecasts

The 90 types of Demand
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 16
FORECASTING AND DEMAND MEASUREMENTTHE MEASURES OF MARKET DEMAND
Different ways of looking at “market”Potential Market: Set of consumers who profess a sufficient level of interest in a market offer (able to buy?)
Available Market: Set of consumers who have interest, income and access to a particular offer. (Qualified Available Market => Eligible or allowed)
Target Market: Part of Qualified Available market, the company decides to pursue (most attractive segment)
Penetrated Market: Set of consumers who are buying the company’s products M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 17
FORECASTING AND DEMAND MEASUREMENTVOCABULARY FOR DEMAND MEASUREMENT
Market Demand:For a product is the total volume that would be bought:
•by a defined customer group•in a defined geographical area•in a defined time period•in a defined marketing environment•under a defined marketing program
Marketing Demand is NOT a number But a function (correlation) of stated conditions

marketing effort => Company sales forecast is the expected level of company sales based on a chosen marketing plan and an assumed marketing environment.

sell it as research reports

Marketing research (e.g. Online survey
execution/management, field interviews etc.)
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSCHEMATIC
Step 1Define the problem
and research objectives
Step 2Develop the Research
plan
Step 3Collect the information
Step 4Analyze the information
Step 5Present the findings
Step 6Make the decision
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 24
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 1: DEFINE THE PROBLEM & RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
Marketing Management defines the problemNot too broadWhat features should be in our new mobile phone modelNot too narrowShould the internet connectivity be through 3G if we increase plan price by 45%
Balanced, well-thought and result-orientedWhat should be enhancements in camera and internet services compared to existing models
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 25
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 2: DEVELOP THE RESEARCH PLAN
Most efficient plan for gathering information
Decisions for:Data sourcesResearch ApproachesResearch InstrumentsSampling PlanContact Methods
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 26
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 2: DEVELOP THE RESEARCH PLAN
Secondary data – collected for another purposeReadily available | Good starting point | Low costResearch from past models | competitor analysis
Primary data – specifically for this projectFocus of Main research | critical informationNeeds to be designed completely based on given problem
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 27
Decisions for Data Sources
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 2: DEVELOP THE RESEARCH PLAN
Observational ResearchUnobtrusive observing of customers(video/voice recorder at service desk selling mobile phones)
Focus Group ResearchGathering of consumers for discussing the problem Carefully selected and observed (selected mobile phone customers can be invited)
Survey ResearchLearning more about consumers. Mass activity(A survey among existing mobile phone customers)
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 28
Decisions for Research Approaches
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 2: DEVELOP THE RESEARCH PLAN
Behavioral dataPurchasing behavior data or usage data or preference data(Data from datacenters showing what is usage of different functions)
Experimental ResearchA small activity emulating real product/service and getting feedback(Few prototypes given to selected consumers and their behavior/feedback is observed)
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 29
Decisions for Research Approaches
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 2: DEVELOP THE RESEARCH PLAN
QuestionnairesA set of questions | carefully developed and pre-testedClosed-end questions: MCQs | Open-ended questions: descriptive(A questionnaire developed for users)
Qualitative measuresQualitative analysis of consumers’ behaviors and interpretation May involve psychological tests | Possible only for small group (observe consumers using phones)
Mechanical devicesDevices (galvanometers, eye cameras) to observe user’s reaction on exposed to product(view user’s experience on seeing a prototype)
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 30
Decisions for Research Instruments
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 2: DEVELOP THE RESEARCH PLAN
Sampling Unit - Who is to be surveyedBased on product, problem etc. (High-end users, corporate clients, access to data networks)
Sample size - How many people to be surveyedAgain based on requirements, budget etc. General rule: Larger sample => better results(Total potential user base in Pakistan: 10Mn => e.g. sample: 1K)
Sampling Procedure - How respondents shall be chosenProbability & Non-probability sampling techniques(Convenience and judgment sampling for mobile phone users)

Decisions for Sampling Plan
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 2: DEVELOP THE RESEARCH PLAN
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 32
Mail QuestionnaireAccess to people who cannot or do not want to be interviewedUse Simple questionnaireVery low response rate(send a questionnaire to existing user with monthly invoice)
Telephonic interviewQuick and convenient. Questions might be clarified easilyResponse rate is good | but cannot be too long or personalized(Make a call to 500 of existing users for a quick interview)
Personal interviewMost versatile and elaborate methodMost expensive and requires lot of administrative workArranged (meeting) | Intercept (in malls etc.)(Interviewing customers visiting service centers)
Online interviewEfficient and highly usedInexpensive | faster | More ‘honesty’ | Versatile using technologySmall and skewed sample | technological problems(Use online advertising or even website to request a survey)
Decisions for Contact Methods
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 3: COLLECT THE INFORMATION
This is the execution of Step 2Most expensive and most prone to errorErrors can be:Respondents not available. Need to re-engage
(typical for high-end clients)Respondents refuse to cooperate
(typical for high-end clients)Give dishonest or biased answers
(biased because of very recent experience)Interviewers can be biased or dishonest
(just filling false information)
Still: Getting the right respondents is critical

THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 5: PRESENT THE FINDINGS
Researchers’ findingsRelated to management’s defined problemIrrelevant information not required(Give a finding of what features are wanted by what kind of customers - users, new users, age-wise etc.)
M G 2 2 0 M A R K E T I N G M A N A G E M E N T | PA RT 2 35
THE MARKETING RESEARCH PROCESSSTEP 6: MAKE THE DECISION
Management’s taskBased on what researcher has provided
(Marketing and Product Development team takes the final decision based on available results and information)
