1 the Business Opportunity
What’s In
In the previous lesson, you already learned about data collection. It is an important
factor of any research study. The three (3) ways of collecting data are Survey, Interview, and
Focus Group Discussion (FGD). This will help entrepreneurs in gathering information about
their target market. But, your entrepreneurial work, however, does not simply end there. You
must design a certain marketing program or strategy that will convey the value of your
product to the target customers. In the parlance of entrepreneurship, this program is
theoretically called marketing mix.
What’s New
Find the P’s
Directions: Think of words or terms related to the topic that starts with letter “P”

Module 5
What is It
Whatever you sell or offer you must outline your marketing mix. Marketing mix has
been around as early as trade existed and that is quite long already. The only difference is that
today everything is well outlined and keeps evolving even further. To get to the point,
marketing mix is a business mechanism used for effective marketing of the products. There is
no hesitation that anyone would benefit from a powerful 7Ps. Marketing Mix is a set of
controllable and connected variables that a company gathers to satisfy a customer better than
its competitor. It is also known as the “Ps” in marketing. Originally, there were only 4Ps but
the model has been continually modified until it became 7P’s. The original 4 P’s stands for
product, place, price and promotion. Eventually, three elements have been added, namely:
people, packaging and positioning to comprise the 7 P’s.
1. PRODUCT
The first P in the Marketing Mix is the Product. Marketing strategy typically
starts with the product. Marketers can’t plan a distribution system or set a price if they don’t
know exactly what the product will be offered to the market.
Product refers to any goods or services that is produced to meet the consumers’ wants,
tastes and preferences. Examples of goods include tires, MP3 players, clothing and etc.
Goods can be categorized into business goods or consumer goods. A buyer of consumer
goods may not have thorough knowledge of the goods he buys and uses. Examples of
services include hair salons and accounting firms. Services can be divided into consumer
services, such as hair styling or professional services, such as engineering and accounting.

of consumer durables. importance in the case of all business goods.
2. PLACE
Place is the second P in the Marketing Mix. Place represents the location where
the buyer and seller exchange goods or services. It is also called as the distribution channel. It
can include any physical store as well as virtual stores or online shops on the Internet.
It is one thing having a great product, sold at an attractive price. But what if:
• Customers are not near a retailer that is selling the product?
• A competing product is stocked by a much wider range of outlets?
• A competitor is winning because it has a team of trained distributors or sales agents
who are out there meeting customers and closing the sale?
Place matters for a business of any size. It is a crucial part of the marketing mix. The
main function of a distribution channel is to provide a link between production and
consumption.
STAGES OF DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL
6 CO_Q1_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 5
Channel 1 contains two stages between producer and consumer - a wholesaler and a retailer.
A wholesaler typically buys and stores large quantities of several producers' goods and then
breaks into bulk deliveries to supply retailers with smaller quantities. For small retailers with
limited order quantities, the use of wholesalers makes economic sense.
Channel 2 contains one intermediary. In consumer markets, this is typically a retailer. A
retailer is a company that buys products from a manufacturer or wholesaler and sells them to
end users or customers. In a sense, a retailer is an intermediary or middleman that customers
use to get products from the manufacturers.
Channel 3 is called a "direct-marketing" channel, since it has no intermediary levels. In this
case the manufacturer sells directly to customers.
3. PRICE
The third P in the Marketing Mix is price. The price is a serious component of the
marketing mix. What do you think is the meaning of Price?
In the narrowest sense, price is the value of money in exchange for a product or
service. Generally speaking, the price is the amount or value that a customer gives up to
enjoy the benefits of having or using a product or service. Thus, customers exchange a certain
value for having or using the product – a value we call price. In commerce, price is
determined by what (1) a buyer is willing to pay, (2) a seller is willing to accept, and (3) the
competition is allowing to be charged. With product, promotion, and place of marketing mix,
it is one of the business variables over which organizations can exercise some degree of
control. One example of a pricing strategy is the penetration pricing. It is when the price
charged for products and services is set artificially low in order to gain market share. Once
this is attained, the price can be higher than before. For example, if you are going to open a
Beauty Salon, you need to set your prices lower than those of your competitors so that you
can penetrate the market. If you already have a good number of market share then you can
slowly increase your price.
There are several factors that affect a small business’ revenue potential. One of the
most important is the pricing strategy utilized by you as the owner of the business. A right
pricing strategy helps you define the particular price at which you can maximize profits on
sales of your product or service. You need to consider a wide range of factors when setting
prices of your offerings. The different pricing strategies with its definition can be found in the
table below.
7 CO_Q1_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 5
The Different Pricing Strategies and Its Definition
Pricing Definition
Strategies
Penetration The price charged for products and services is set artificially low in order to gain
Pricing market share. Once this is achieved, the price is increased.
Skimming A company charges a higher price then slowly lowers the price to make the
Pricing product available to a wider market because it has a considerable competitive
advantage. However, the advantage tends not to be
sustainable. The high price attracts new competitors into the market, and the
price inevitably falls due to increased supply.
Competition A pricing method in which a seller uses prices of competing products as a
Pricing benchmark instead of considering own costs or the customer demand. In reality
a firm has three options and these are to price lower, price the same
or price higher than competitors
Product Line The practice of reviewing and setting prices for multiple products that a
Pricing company offers in coordination with one another. Rather than looking at each
product separately and setting its price, product-line pricing strategies aim to
maximize the sales of different products by creating more complementary,
rather than competitive, products. If you offer more than one product or service,
consider the impact that one product's or service's
price will have on the others.
Bundle The act of placing several products or services together in a single
Pricing package and selling for a lower price than would be charged if the items were
sold separately.
Premium Setting the price of a product higher than similar products. The goal is to create
Pricing the perception that the products must have a higher value than
competing products because the prices are higher.
Psychological Psychological pricing is the practice of setting prices slightly lower than
Pricing rounded numbers, in the belief that customers do not round up these prices, and
so will treat them as lower prices than they really are. This practice is based on
the belief that customers tend to process a price from the left-most digit to the
right, and so will tend to ignore the last few digits
of a price.
Optional The company earns more through cross-selling products along with a basic
Pricing core product. The main product does not have many features (and
is priced low) which can be enhanced through optional or accessory
products which are sold at premium by the same company.
Cost Plus Cost plus pricing involves adding a markup to the cost of goods and services to
Pricing arrive at a selling price. Under this approach, you add together the direct
material cost, direct labor cost, and overhead costs for a
product, and add to it a markup percentage in order to derive the price of the
product.
Cost Based A pricing method in which a fixed sum or a percentage of the total cost is added
Pricing (as income or profit) to the cost of the product to arrive at its selling price.
Value Based A price-setting strategy where prices are set primarily on consumers'
Pricing perceived value of the product or service.

Module 5
4. PROMOTION
Promotion is the fourth P in the Marketing Mix. Promotion refers to the complete set
of activities, which communicate the product, brand or service to the user. The idea is to
create an awareness, attract and induce the consumers to buy the product, in preference over
others. The following are the most common medium in promoting a product and this is called
promotional mix.
PROMOTIONAL MIX
1. ADVERTISING
• Radio
Advertising by means of radio gives the advantage of selecting the territory and
audience to which the message is to be directed. It is also cheaper than TV advertising.
• Television
This is the latest and the fast-developing medium of advertising and is getting increased
popularity these days. It is more effective as compared to radio as it has the advantages of
sound and sight. On account of pictorial presentation, it is more effective and impressive and
leaves a lasting impression on the mind of the viewer.
• Print
The print media carry their messages entirely through the visual mode. These media
consist of newspapers, magazines and direct mail.
• Electronic
You can also advertise electronically through your company website and provide
important and pertinent information to clients and customers. You can protect some parts of
your website through passwords and give access to member customers. You can also send
advertisements via direct e-mail as part of your promotional strategy.
• Word of Mouth
Word-of-mouth advertising is important for every business, as each happy customer can
steer dozens of new ones your way. And it's one of the most credible forms of advertising
because a person puts their reputation on the line every time they make a recommendation
and that person has nothing to gain but the appreciation of those who are listening.
• Generic
The promotion of a particular commodity is without reference to a specific producer,
brand name or manufacturer. Producers join together to expand total demand for the
commodity, thereby helping their own sales. These activities are often self-funded through
assessments on marketing called check-off programs.
9 CO_Q1_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 5
2. PUBLIC RELATIONS OR PR
In public relations, the article that features your company is not paid for. The reporter,
whether broadcast or print, writes about or films your company as a result of information he
or she received and researched.
Many people use the term PR and advertising interchangeably, PR involves sharing
information with the public using platforms that do not require a payment, such as social
media or through press releases shared with magazines and newspapers. PR professionals
package information and disseminate it in the hopes that it will be organically shared. The
goal of public relations is to shape public perception of a business, presenting a positive
image through various strategies to its various constituents.
3. PERSONAL SELLING
Personal selling occurs when an individual salesperson sells a product, service or
solution to a client. Salespeople match the benefits of their offering to the specific needs of a
client. Today, personal selling involves the development of longstanding client relationships.
Personal selling involves a selling process that is summarized in the following Five
Stage Personal Selling Process. The five stages are:
• Prospecting
• Making first contact
• The sales call
• Objection handling
• Closing the sale
4. SALES PROMOTIONS
Sales promotion is any initiative undertaken by an organization to promote an increase
in sales, usage or trial of a product or service (i.e., initiatives that are not covered by the other
elements of the marketing communications or promotions mix).
10 CO_Q1_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 5
• Customer Contests
Contests offer the customer a chance to win prizes like cash or store merchandise.
• Special Pricing
Special pricing is used to offer consumers a lower price for a period of time or to
purchase in multiple quantities. For example, a retailer may offer a product that normally
costs 35 pesos at a price of 3-for-100-pesos during the promotional period.
5. DIRECT MARKETING
Direct marketing is a promotional method that involves presenting information about
your company, product, or service to your target customer without the use of an advertising
middleman. It is a targeted form of marketing that presents information of potential interest to
a consumer that has been determined to be a likely buyer.
5. PEOPLE
The fifth P in the Marketing mix is People. Your team, the staff that makes it happen
for you, your audience, and your advertisers are the people in marketing. This consist of each
person who is involved in the product or service whether directly or indirectly.
People are the ultimate marketing strategy. They sell and push the product. People are
one of the most important elements of the marketing mix today. This is because of the
remarkable rise of the services industry. Products are being sold through retail channels
today. If the retail channels are not handled with the right people, the product will not be sold.
Services must be first class nowadays. The people rendering the service must be competent
and skilled enough so that that the clients will patronize your service. The marketing efforts
of people are to create customer awareness, to arouse customer interest, to educate customers,
to close the sale and to deliver the product.
Therefore, the right people are essential in marketing mix in the current marketing
scenario.
6. PACKAGING
Packaging is the sixth P in the Marketing Mix. Packaging is a silent hero in the
marketing world. Packaging refers to the outside appearance of a product and how it is
presented to the customers. The best packaging should be attractive enough and
11 CO_Q1_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 5
cost efficient for the customers. Packaging is highly functional. It is for protection,
containment, information, utility of use and promotion.
1) Protection:
One of the major functions of packaging is to provide for the effects of time and environment
for the natural and manufactured products. The protection function can be divided into some
classes.
A. Natural deterioration:
It is caused by the interaction of products with water, gases and fumes, microbiologic
organisms like bacteria, yeasts and molds, heat, cold, dryness, contaminants and insects and
rodents.
B. Physical protection:
The packaging is also used for physical protection, which include improving shock
protection, internal product protection and reducing shock damage caused from vibration,
snagging, friction and impact.
C. Safety:
A special kind of protective packaging is required for products that are deemed harmful to
those who transport them or use them. These products include extremely inflammable gas
and liquid, radioactive elements, toxic materials etc. The packaging should also be done so
that children could not easily use or dispose them.
D. Waste reduction:
Packaging also serves to reduce the amount of waste especially in case of food distribution.
2) Containment:
This involves merging of unit loads for shipping. It starts with spots of adhesives on the
individual shippers that stick them together, straps of steel and plastic, entire coverings of
shrinkable or stretchable plastic films and paper or corrugated wraps that surround an entire
pallet of product.
There are some special bulk boxes or pallet bins made from unusually strong corrugated
board or fabricated form plastics or metal, the method of which depends on the type and
weight of product and its protective needs. The cargo containers made of aluminum used to
hold many pallet loads of goods can be transferred to or from ships, trains and flatbed trucks
by giant cranes.
12 CO_Q1_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 5
3) Information:
The packaging conveys necessary information to the consumers. The common information
that packaging provides include general features of the product, ingredients, net weight of the
contents, name and address of the manufacturers, maximum retail price (MRP).
4) Utility of use:
The convenience packaging has been devised for foods, household chemicals, drugs,
adhesives, paints, cosmetics, paper goods and a host of other products. This type of
packaging includes dispensing devices, prepackaged hot metals, and disposable medical
packaging.
5) Promotion:
Companies use attractive colors, logos, symbols and captions to promote the product that can
influence customer purchase decision.
Packaging Decisions:
i. Packaging concept:
This defines what the package should be or do for the particular product in terms of
size, shape, materials, color, text, and brand mark and tamperproof ability
v. Consumer tests:
This is to ensure favorable consumer response
13 CO_Q1_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 5
7. POSITIONING
Finally, the seventh P in the Marketing Mix is Positioning. When a company presents a
product or service in a way that is different from the competitors, they are said to be
“positioning” it. Positioning refers to a process used by marketers to create an image in the
minds of a target market.
Solid positioning will allow a single product to attract different customers for not the
same reasons. For example, two people are interested in buying a phone; one wants a phone
that is cheaper in price and fashionable while the other buyer is looking for a phone that is
durable and has longer battery life and yet they buy the same exact phone.
There are three basic concepts for positioning. These are Functional Positions,
Symbolic Positions and Experiential Positions. Functional Positions deal with solving a
problem, providing benefits and getting a favorable perception from investors, stockholders
and consumers. Symbolic Positions deal with self-image enhancement, ego identification,
belongingness, social meaningfulness and affective fulfilment and Experiential Positions deal
with providing sensory or cognitive stimulation.

At the start of the positioning process, you need a firm understanding of your target market
and answers to the following questions:
In which product, service, or market category (also called the “frame of reference”) do you
plan to use this positioning?
Which target segment is your focus for the positioning you are developing? What
factors do these buyers evaluate when they make a purchasing decision? How do these
buyers view your competitors in the category?
If you don’t have answers to these questions, you should consider conducting formal or
informal marketing research to reach a better understanding of your target market and the
market dynamics around it.
14 CO_Q1_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 5
Step 2: Identify Your Competitive Advantages
A competitive advantage is some trait, quality, or capability that allows you to outperform the
competition. It gives your product, service, or brand an advantage over others in purchasing
decisions. Competitive advantage may come from and or all of the following:
Price: Something in your production process or supply chain may make it possible for you to
provide comparable value at a lower cost than competitors.
Features: You may provide tangible or intangible features that your competitors do not: for
example, more colors, better taste, a more elegant design, quicker delivery, personalized
service, etc.
Benefits: You may provide unique benefits to customers that your competitors cannot match.
Benefits are intangible strengths or outcomes your customer gets when they use your
offering. For example, time savings, convenience, increased control, enjoyment, relaxation,
more choices, feeling better about oneself, being more attractive, etc.
Create a list of the things that make you different from competitors in positive ways. Then
identify which of these factors are also competitive advantages: the influential factors that
help you perform better in the marketplace and cause customers to choose your product,
service, or brand over other options.
Your list of competitive advantages represents a set of possible positioning strategies you
could pursue for your product, service, or brand. The next step is to examine how these
factors fit into customer perceptions of your broader competitive set. Your goal is to pick a
positioning approach that gives you a unique and valued position in the market that
competitors are not addressing.
Create a positioning statement that will serve to identify your business and how you want the
brand to be perceived by consumers.

Lesson
Developing a Brand Name
2
We are now in the second lesson of this module. After studying and understanding the
framework of the Marketing Mix which is the 7 P’s of Marketing, you are now ready to
develop your Brand Name.
What comes to your mind when you hear the word “coffee”? How about “milk”? When
you are asked to name a “toothpaste” or a “soft drinks, what will you think and say first?
Now as a future entrepreneur, how do you describe the sales of your product being
displayed on the shelves of various malls and groceries beside the product with a brand
name? Do you think the consumers will notice or remember it? Branding will ultimately
reside(s) in the mind of every consumers, thus, it plays a significant role in every business.
Brand Name is a name, symbol, or other feature that distinguishes a seller's goods or
services in the marketplace. Your brand is one of your greatest assets because your brand is
your customers' over-all experience of your business. Brand strategy is a long-term design
for the development of a popular brand in order to achieve the goals and objectives. A well-
defined brand strategy shakes all parts of a
16 CO_Q1_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 5
business and is directly linked to customer needs, wants, emotions, and competitive surroundings.
Experts believe that a good brand can result in better loyalty for its customers, a better
corporate image and a more relevant identity.
1) Purpose
"Every brand makes a promise. But in a market in which customer confidence is little
and budgetary observance is great, it’s not just making a promise that separates one brand
from another, but having a significant purpose," (Allen Adamson).
How can you define your business purpose? According to Business Strategy Insider,
purpose can be viewed in two ways:
a. Functional. This way focuses on the assessments of success in terms of fast and
profitable reasons. For example, the purpose of the business is to make money.
b. Intentional. This way focuses on fulfillment as it relates to the capability to generate
money and do well in the world.
2) Consistency
The significance of consistency is to avoid things that don’t relate to or improve your
brand. Consistency aids to brand recognition, which fuels customer loyalty.
17 CO_Q1_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 5
3) Emotion
There should be an emotional voice, whispering "Buy me". This means you allow the
customers to have the chance to feel that they are part of your brand.
You should find ways to connect more deeply and emotionally with your customers.
Make them feel part of the family and use emotion to build relationships and promote brand
loyalty.
4) Flexibility
Marketers should remain flexible too in this rapidly changing world. Consistency
targets at setting the standard for your brand, flexibility allows you to adjust and differentiate
your approach from your competition.
5) Employee Involvement
It is equally important for your employees to be well versed in how they communicate
with customers and represent the brand of your product.
6) Loyalty
Loyalty is an important part of brand strategy. At the end of the day, the emphasis on a
positive relationship between you and your existing customers sets the tone for what potential
customers can expect from doing business with you.
7) Competitive Awareness
Do not be frightened of competition. Take it as a challenge to improve your branding
strategy and craft a better value in your brand.

Generalization
You have learned a lot from this module. You already understand all the concepts from
the 7 Ps in the Marketing Mix to Developing a Brand Name.
Marketing mix constitutes of the 7P’s in the case of products – product, price, place and
promotion. In case of services, it constitutes of 3 more P’s – people, packaging and
positioning.
All P's should be compatible in the marketing mix. The price is compatible with the
product's placement. The product must be consistent with the promotion. In general, all P 's
are connected intrinsically.
As a result, when you make a marketing mix, it becomes a chain of strong bonds. Then
these connections will lead you to lengthen the chain. Whenever you plan to add or change
existing features, you need to see the general image which helps create a fresh product in the
marketing mix.
Branding is absolutely critical to a business because of the overall impact it makes on
your company. Branding can change how people percept your brand, it can drive new
