The 4Ps of the Marketing Mix

The Marketing Mix consists of the 4Ps

1. Product

2. Place

3. Promotion

4. Price

The “Marketing Mix” is the combination of 4 key factors that companies put together in order to not only make us BUY their product, but to KEEP ON BUYING it!

P is for “Product”

“Product” is all about what is UNIQUE about the company that makes us think that it’s more special than its rivals.

Products are made to stand out by aspects such as their DESIGN; BRAND NAMES and PACKAGING.

Lets see what the DVD can tell us about “Product” in the introduction, before we study branding in more detail….

Branding - Definition

• Branding is the imagery a company uses to make us IDENTIFY them and pick them out from their competition.

• Branding can involve the use of a CONSISTENT range of colour or a LOGO.

• The “Brand” can be the company e.g. MORRISONS; or it can be a product range that is a “Brand” e.g. “Lynx” (made by Unilever).
