Five step Marketing research approach

1-Define the problem 2- Develop the research plan 3-Collect relevant information 4- Develop findings 5- Take marketing Actions

Strategic role of most successful new products

EXTERNALLY DRIVEN-defend market share position, establish foothold in new market, preempt market segment INTERNALLY DRIVEN- maintain position as product innovator, exploit technology in a new way, capitalize on distribution strengths, provide a cash generator, and use excess or off-season capacity

Product positioning w/ perceptual maps

1. Identify impt attributes for a product or brand class 2. Customer's ratings of competing products or brands on these attributes. 3. Customer's ratings of the company's products or brands on these attributes 4. Reposition the company's products or brands in the minds of consumers 5. Perceptual map 6. Perceptual map to reposition Chocolate milk for adults (identify impt attributes for adult drinks, discover how adults see competing drinks, discover how customers see chocolate milk,reposition chocolate milk to make it more appealing to adults)

Five dimensions of service quality

1. Reliability-ability to perform the promised service dependability & accurately (Is my flight on time?) 2. Tangibles-appearance of physical facilities, equipment, personnel & communication materials (gate, plane & baggage area clean?) 3. Responsiveness- willingness to help customers & provide prompt service-(attendants willing to answer my questions?) 4.
