The Four P’s:Â
PRODUCTÂ
What does the customer want from the product/service?Â
What needs does it satisfy?
What features does it have toÂ
meet these needs?Â
Are there any featuresÂ
you’ve missed out?
Are you including costlyÂ
features that the customerÂ
won’t actually use?
How and where will the customerÂ
use it?
What does it look like? How willÂ
customers experience it?
What size(s), color(s), and so on,Â
should it be?
What is it to be called?
How is it branded?
How is it differentiated versus yourÂ
competitors?
What is the most it can cost toÂ
provide and still be sold sufficiently profitably?Â
PLACE
• Where do buyers look for your  product or service? • If they look in a store, what kind? A  specialist boutique or in a  supermarket, or both? Or online?  Or direct, via a catalog? • How can you access the right  distribution channels? • Do you need to use a sales force?  Or attend trade fairs? Or make  online submissions? Or send  samples to catalog companies? • What do your competitors do, and  how can you learn from that  and/or differentiate?
PRICE
What is the value of the product or service to the buyer?
Are there established price points
for products or services in thisÂ
area?Â
Is the customer price sensitive?Â
Will a small decrease in price gainÂ
you extra market share? Or will aÂ
small increase be indiscernible,Â
and so gain you extra profitÂ
margin?
What discounts should be offeredÂ
to trade customers, or to otherÂ
specific segments of your market?
How will your price compare withÂ
your competitors?
PROMOTION
Where and when can you get yourÂ
marketing messages across to yourÂ
target market?
Will you reach your audience byÂ
advertising online, in the press, onÂ
TV, on radio, or on billboards? ByÂ
using direct marketing mailshots?Â
Through PR? On the internet?
When is the best time to promote?Â
Is there seasonality in the market?Â
Are there any wider environmentalÂ
issues that suggest or dictate theÂ
timing of your market launch orÂ
subsequent promotions?
How do your competitors do theirÂ
promotions? And how does thatÂ
influence your choice ofÂ
promotional activity?
