Marketing strategy is an organization's promotional efforts to allocate its resources across a wide range

of platforms, channels to increase its sales and achieve sustainable competitive advantage within its

corresponding market A marketing strategy is a business’s game plan for reaching prospective consumers and

turning them into customers of their products or services. Marketing strategies should revolve around a

company’s value proposition. The ultimate goal of a marketing strategy is to achieve and communicate a

sustainable competitive advantage over rival companies. Let’s look at some other definitions of marketing

strategy from industry experts.


CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

1
1.1 INTRODUCTION

A marketing strategy is a long-term plan for achieving a company's goals by understanding the needs of

customers and creating a distinct and sustainable competitive advantage. It encompasses everything from

determining who your customers are to deciding what channels you use to reach those customers.

Marketing is a series of tactics used to communicate and promote a product or service. It exists to draw

in and motivate prospective customers to take action and purchase goods.

Built on creativity and innovation, marketing delivers value to meet the needs of a target market.

Ultimately, it strives to promote a brand and maximize a company’s profits.

Let’s establish what we mean when we use the term “marketing strategy”. There are a number of

different definitions that often get applied to this seemingly simple term, so it’d be best to clearly delineate how

this guide defines the concept.

2
1.1.2 MARKETING STRATEGY DEFINITION

Marketing strategy describes the process of how businesses and organizations understand their markets

and their methods for influencing profitable customer action

Marketing strategy is a process that can allow an organization to concentrate its limited resources on the

greatest opportunities to increase sales and achieve a sustainable competitive advantage. That seems succinct

enough, right. In other words, and in the interest of keeping things simple, marketing strategy is all about

1. Understanding who buys your products and services.

2. Understanding how you’ll motivate them to take profitable action.

3. Understanding your competitors who are trying to do the same thing.

4. Understanding how you’ll measure marketing activities and refine your approach moving forward.

A company’s marketing strategy is its plan for reaching potential consumers and converting them into

paying customers for its goods and services. A marketing strategy includes:

1. Research: Analysis of target markets, competition, pricing triggers, buying behaviors, and more.

2. Positioning: Differentiation in value promises, packaging look and feel, conversion messaging, and

more.

3. Promotion: Actual marketing of products and services through content, relationships, and

experiences with the goal of influencing profitable customer action.

4. Measurement: Proving value, learning from success and failure, and iterating future work to

fulfill marketing goals.

5. Let’s look at some other definitions of marketing strategy from industry experts.

Marketing Strategy Definition from Philip Kotler

one of the co-authors of the discipline-defining textbook, Marketing Management, defines marketing

strategy as the process to Create, communicate, and deliver value to a target market at a profit.

3
Kotler goes on to say, “Creating value is called product management. You have to communicate value.

That’s brand management. To deliver value is called customer management. So, you’re in three businesses:

product management, brand management, and customer management.

Marketing Strategy Definition from Omer Farkash

Marketing strategy is a long-term, forward-looking approach and an overall game plan of any

organization or any business with the fundamental goal of achieving a sustainable competitive advantage by

understanding the needs and wants of customers.

Marketing Strategy Definition from Adam Barone

A marketing strategy refers to a business’s overall game plan for reaching prospective consumers and

turning them into customers of their products or services. A marketing strategy contains the company’s value

proposition, key brand messaging, data on target customer demographics, and other high-level elements.

Marketing Strategy Definition from Noah Kagan

Do you have a product or service that people want? If you don’t have that, nothing else matters.

1.1.3 IMPORTANCE OF MARKETING STRATEGY

Implementing a marketing strategy for your business is important because it empowers marketers to:

1. Gain knowledge of target market, demand, and competitive differentiation that make investments in

product development profitable.

2. Provide your company with an edge over its competition with knowledge of what influences purchase

decisions that can optimize product positioning.

3. Set up marketing departments for success by defining marketing goals, lead indicators, lag indicators,

and providing focus for marketers to focus their efforts on what has the best potential to influence

results.

4
A robust and ideal marketing strategy will:

1. Align your team behind a set of objectives

2. Assist you in connecting your efforts to your company’s goals

3. Differentiate your products from the competition with unique value propositions

4. Allow you to determine what connects with your audience and test it

5. Empower your team to prove its value to the organization

1.1.4 BENEFITS OF A MARKETING STRATEGY

You might be thinking your company isn’t a global powerhouse. You might not even aspire to achieve

that kind of growth, and, realistically, most companies won’t or don’t need to join the Fortune 500—though

even the world’s biggest brands still need to pay attention to strategy, too. That doesn’t mean focusing on

strategy and making a real investment in it isn’t for you. If you have customers to serve, then you need to think

strategically so your execution—you know, all the fun, creative parts that attract so many of us to this work in

the first place—actually moves the people it needs to and drives the results you need.

5
Marketers Who Document Their Strategy Are 674% More Likely To Reach Goals

“You need a documented strategy” is an old chestnut that has been repeated around the marketing

industry for decades. It turns out that there’s a good reason for this, and it’s not just a commonly accepted best

practice that we all do without actually knowing why.

In fact, research from Schedule in 2022 shows that marketers who document strategy are 674% more

likely to report success than their peers who do not document strategy

Marketers Who Set Goals Are 377% More Successful

The same report that proves marketers who document strategy are more successful also found

that marketers who set goals are 377% more likely to report success than their peers who do not proactively set

goals.

If goals are the destination, then goal-setting marketers are very good at drawing the roadmap to get

where they need to be. Without a known destination, marketers are directionless seemingly meandering with no

guideposts.

Marketers Who Plan Are 331% More Successful


A recent study from PsychTests.com discovered that “people who plan ahead are more self-motivated,

resilient, and optimistic than people who take things as they come.” marketers who proactively plan are 331%

more likely to report success than their peers who do not plan ahead

You Can Win at Marketing Strategy By Doing What Others Won’t


one last fact from Schedule’s research: Only 47% of marketers have documented portions of their

process. Just 17% of marketers have documented the majority (if not all) of their marketing strategy. If we put

these statistics together, we can loosely draw a few different conclusions:

6
1. Documenting strategy matters: It’s not a pointless exercise—especially when you do it effectively.
2. Most marketers do not strategize well: This means more opportunity for you to kick ass.
3. Success requires follow-through: The door is wide open for those willing to walk through it.

1.1.5  INCLUDED IN A MARKETING STRATEGY


A Marketing Strategy uses high-level elements to determine a company’s current value position and

outline a future marketing direction. It generally contains:

1. A Marketing Outcome: The end result a company wishes to achieve

2. A SWOT analysis: An internal and external review of an organization to determine its strengths,

weaknesses, opportunities, and threat

“Recommended Reading: Marketing SWOT Analysis: How to Do It (With Examples & Template)”

3. The Target Audience: The ideal customer a company wants to reach

4. A Budget: The money allocated to marketing efforts

5. A Product Mix: The analysis of product, price, place, and promotion – the key components in

successfully marketing anything

“Recommended Reading: What Is the Marketing Mix? Defining The 4, 5, 6, & 7 Ps of Marketing”

6. Marketing Tactics: The actions taken to accomplish a marketing objective

7. A Content Schedule: A living document that blueprints when and where content will be posted

8. A Marketing Timeline: A chronological plan, including an end date, of the marketing strategy

9. Accountability: What success will look like and how to record it

1.1.6 STEPS OF MARKETING STRATEGY: HOW TO CREATE A MARKETING


STRATEGY

Apart from the points discussed in the above section of the article, what are the key things you should

include when working on your company’s Marketing Strategy.


7
Begin with a documented marketing plan: A strong marketing strategy requires research and

communication. A written plan with crucial information acts like a roadmap for marketers to travel to your

desired destination—the goals you aim to influence.

1. Understand your target audience and the market: Researching customers, market trends, and

competition empowers marketers to differentiate products, pricing, distribution, promotion, packaging, and

positioning. Accurate research to direct marketing efforts is essential for a marketing strategy—and team—

to be successful.

2. Define your unique value proposition and key differentiators: In this step, marketing strategists translate

research into action. Marketing must influence product research and development, brand identity with

visuals and voice, and unique positioning and benefits.

3. Set marketing goals and objectives: After marketing strategists understand the market opportunity, they

may set smart, measurable, achievable, relevant, and timely (SMART) goals.

4. Identify the marketing approaches and media to reach your target audience: The goal of marketing is

to generate profitable customer action. Marketing strategy focuses on stakeholders and practitioners by

documenting marketing funnel stages, selecting the marketing tactics with the greatest potential to influence

the goals and objectives, and defining the channels the organization will leverage to execute the plan.

5. Execute and publish marketing activities: A marketing plan is only beneficial when a company actualizes

it. Marketing strategists must identify when campaigns will launch and how contributors will collaborate

with their resources to make the vision a reality.

6. Measure and analyze results: Marketing strategists know that if you ship but neglect to measure your

impact, you haven’t achieved anything. Successful marketers measure how their activities influence the

goals and objectives outlined in the marketing strategy. From there, ideation from audits may lead to tests

and iterations that may be even more influential in achieving marketing goals.

8
1.1.7 READ THIS RESOURCE FOR A COMPLETE AND ROBUST LIST OF

MARKETING STRATEGY STEPS

So how do you develop a marketing strategy? Let’s take a look at how to create a successful marketing

strategy:

Step 1: Begin with A Documented Marketing Plan: To begin, document everything you learn and do so that all

marketers, agencies, executives, and other stakeholders in your organization understand the following:

1 Who you’re targeting

2 What your objectives are

3 How to differentiate yourself from the competition

4 How to reach your audience

5 What will measure your success

Documenting your content plan is critical to the effectiveness of your content marketing efforts.
9
Setting goals can often be the difference between success and failure. It is believed that writing (or

typing) your objectives allows them to become more ingrained in your brain.

Organized marketers are 674% more likely to report success.

We know and understand how daunting it may be to create a marketing strategy from the beginning.

That is why we have created 38 marketing plan samples to assist you in developing your framework.

Step 2: Understand Your Target Audience & The Market :


1 Research Customer Pain Points & Expectations

Effective marketing targets a specific audience. Knowing who those individuals are can help you sell

more effectively. You can pinpoint your target demographic and design marketing accordingly with

sufficient research and analysis.

2 Identify Market Trends


While understanding your audience can only get you so far, knowing your market trends keeps you

shining on your path. Identifying and knowing current trends in the market helps you improve yourself

and keep updated with the competition.

3 Understand The Competition & Your Unique Selling Proposition


 Competitive analysis is the process of determining the strengths and weaknesses of your competitors to

acquire a better grasp of how to conduct your business and reach new audiences. Conducting a

competitive study is critical for determining how you will run your whole organization.

 The SWOT analysis refers to a company’s Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. It can

assist you in determining what may separate you from your competitors and the resources available to

capitalize on that opportunity.

4 Document Buyer Personas


Your marketing persona is a document that covers the who, what, when, where, and why of your target

audience and broad demographic data such as gender, job title, job function, business size, team size,

requirements, pain points, and difficulties.

10
Step 3: Define Your Unique Value Proposition & Key Differentiators

1. Identify Your Brand Value & Offering

While your logo, goods, website, and even your digital marketing efforts may evolve, one constant must be

your brand values. Your fundamental brand values are the principles around which you found your business.

They work as a compass for your brand’s narrative, activities, behaviors, and decision-making process.

2. Define Your Unique Brand Voice

Brand Voice - The term brand voice refers to the personality and emotion infused into a company’s

communication. It involves the words and language you employ to the personality and image elicited by your

marketing materials.

You must ensure that your message is heard above the competition and leaves a lasting impact on

potential clients.

3. Create Your Creative Visual Identity

Your brand’s design is its unsung advocate. Now, more than ever, the visual appearance of your brand can

make or break your business.

Visual identity is not exclusive to large corporations; small, direct-to-consumer firms may also develop one

at a modest cost. We strongly advise you to create an excellent visual identity, even if you are just getting

started.

4. Document Your Brand Positioning & Messaging

Brand positioning determines how your product is viewed, while messaging serves as a vehicle for

amplifying that perception. Together, they define your company’s position in the market and ultimately

determine its long-term success.

Step 4: Set Marketing Goals & Objectives

1. Marketing Goals

11
Your marketing goal is a defined, quantifiable, aspirational, reasonable, and time-bound statistic that serves

as the driving force behind all your marketing efforts. Marketers who document their aims and objectives are

more likely to see them through to completion.

2. Marketing Objectives

Marketing objectives are quantifiable goals that define the desired outcome of your marketing approach.

Their primary objective is to direct your marketing efforts toward certain milestones.

3. Document SMART Goals

It is critical to ensure that your marketing objectives are Specified, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and

Time-bound – or SMART for short. The SMART approach enables a supervisor to manage marketing

activities effectively and forecast the success of new objectives.

Step 5: Identify the Marketing Approaches & Media to Reach Your Target Audience

Understand Your Marketing Funnel

The marketing funnel is a funnel diagram that depicts how customers go through the customer journey.

1. Understand Your Marketing Funnel

Prospective consumers, like sales funnels, begin at the top when they become aware of a need. They

then examine items that satisfy that demand before making a purchase.

2. Define Your Marketing Channels

12
Any technique or platform used to advertise a product or service to customers is considered a marketing

channel. The fundamental objective is to transfer the product or service ownership from the manufacturer to the

consumer.

3. Choose Your Marketing Tactics

Marketing tactics are the actions used to drive the promotion of a product or service to achieve specified

marketing objectives. A case study is an example of a marketing approach. Blog articles, white papers,  and

videos are examples of material that may be used to implement that marketing technique.

Step 6: Execute & Publish Marketing Activities

1. Marketing Calendar

A marketing calendar is a tool that allows you to plan and organize all of your marketing efforts in one

location. It serves as a road map for all of your marketing efforts.

2. Marketing Execution
Marketing execution is how your marketing plan transforms into reality. You already know that a

marketing strategy serves as a road map for selecting, prioritizing, planning, and finally, executing tasks that

eventually benefit your business’s bottom line.

Step 7: Measure & Analyze Results

Review Your Media


13
A marketing metric is a measurable metric used to track the effectiveness of a marketing campaign.

They are essential for your entire organization. Without them, it is hard to determine the precise impact

of marketing on a business.

1.1.8 TYPES OF MARKETING THIRTEEN STRATEGIES

No matter which types of strategy you plan and execute, they all follow the same basic principles:

Who are you trying to reach. These are your target customers or audiences you need to buy a product,

make a donation, persuade to support an idea, or take another action that supports your objectives.

Where will you try to reach them. These network and channel-specific strategies emphasize this area.

How will you inspire them to take action and buy from you. Your branding, channels, and tactics come

into play here.

Which ways will you measure success. If you can’t measure it, then it didn’t happen. You must prove

your strategy drives results.

1. Brand Positioning Strategy

A brand strategy is a comprehensive plan for linking your distinctive value to the appropriate target at

every point of contact.

Brand positioning occurs regardless of whether you consciously include it in your marketing plan. You

can affect this view proactively by designing your brand positioning before publishing content and defining

your brand voice first.

2. Public Relations Strategy


Public relations is responsible for establishing and maintaining a positive connection with the public. To

avoid falling behind, marketers must learn how to connect their public relations activities efficiently with other

aspects of marketing.

Your public relations activities must target the appropriate audiences using the right strategies, and each

strategy should have quantifiable objectives.

3. Product Marketing Strategy

Product marketing is like the interface between sales, marketing, and product development.
14
The majority of product marketing operations often concentrate in the bottom third of the marketing

funnel – the thing that assists someone in making a final purchase decision and converting to successful, loyal

customers. You can strategize the product marketing for better results.

4. Digital Marketing Strategy


A well-structured digital marketing plan is required to succeed as a business in today’s digital world.

Check out some helpful tips and more on our exclusive piece here.

5. Inbound Marketing Strategy


This strategy for attracting and engaging customers creates an organization that provides value and earns

trust.

Rather than interrupting individuals who have not indicated an interest in your products, inbound

marketing seeks to attract those who have previously acknowledged a need.

6.SEO Content Strategy

SEO is mainly concerned with content. With content marketing, SEO as we know it accelerated and

gained popularity. Content marketers today have a greater potential than ever to leverage SEO-driven

strategy.

7. Content Marketing Strategy

15
The content strategy ends in the publication of successful content. While you may have prepared your

content and blog pieces, promoting them and ensuring that they reach your audience is an entirely different

challenge.

Check out our blog post on content marketing strategy for more information on this and several

templates you can use to do the same thing.

8. Social Media Content Strategy

A social media content strategy details the information you publish on various social media platforms

while also defining how to connect with your audience.

This strategy saves you time and helps you manage your social media accounts more effectively.

9. Email Marketing Strategy

Email marketing strategy is crucial for any business because, through emails, organizations engage with

customers, segment them, and strategize their further marketing plans.

We have written an article on email marketing strategy and how Digital Marketer nails this approach.

Make sure to check it out!

10. Video Marketing Strategy

Video marketing is an ever-increasing trend. The returns of marketing from YouTube and TikTok are

proof. Producing high-quality video content takes time. CoSchedule will ensure it receives attention.

11. Internal Marketing Strategy

A marketing strategy that focuses on fostering employee loyalty, competence, and engagement by

“selling” your product and vision to them is called an internal marketing strategy.

You want them to genuinely grasp why you’re selling those things so they can convey that message to

others – including your customers.

12. Editorial Strategy

An editorial plan specifies the content formats, distribution channels, and procedures that power your

marketing activities and enable you to achieve your marketing objectives.

16
It is always focused on your target audience. As a result, an editorial strategy establishes clear criteria

and expectations for content creation based on what your audience wants.

13. Ecommerce Marketing Strategy

Marketing is the first consideration when starting an Ecommerce shop. Once you’ve decided on what to

offer, you’ll probably wonder how to increase traffic to your site and convert that traffic into sales.

Figuring out how to strategize can feel pretty daunting. But worry not, as we have a dedicated blog

post on Ecommerce Marketing Strategy to help boost your sales.

1.1.9 MARKETING STRATEGY FAQS


The Difference Between Marketing Strategy Vs. Marketing Plan

1. Marketing strategy the same as a marketing plan

Marketing strategy is your purpose; it is the offering you supply, the method you deliver it, and why

your marketing efforts will assist you in achieving your company’s mission and strategic goals. Having a

clearly defined marketing strategy is critical for your business’s success.

A marketing plan, guided by your strategy, is the implementation, the roadmap for tactical marketing

actions that assist you in achieving your marketing goals. It’s the detailed description of what you’re going to

do, where you’re going to do it, when you’re going to do it, and how you’re going to measure success.

2. Difference Between A Marketing Strategy Vs. A Marketing Tactic

Your marketing strategy defines your objective; it is the product or service you provide, how you give it,

and why your marketing efforts will aid you in reaching your company’s mission and strategic goals. While

many people see marketing as a hobby, having a well-defined marketing plan is vital to your business’s success.

Marketing tactics are the more specific methods to achieve the strategy’s objectives. While the process

is long-term, tactics are more immediate and focused on a particular goal. Tactics complement strategy by

conveying risks, successes, and failures.

3. The Best Marketing Strategy

The best marketing strategy is the one that will generate the most profitable action for your unique

business. That’s a catch-all answer, which is not entirely helpful, though.


17
Here are some marketing strategies we’d recommend trying in 2023:

Search engine optimization strategy: According to a Search Engine Journal poll, 49% of respondents

said, “Organic search is the digital marketing channel that brings in the highest ROI.”

Email marketing strategy: According to Statista, 4 billion people check email daily. Statista also

estimates revenue reaching about 11 billion by December 2023. The chances are pretty good that your target

audience uses this channel.

Social media marketing strategy: Again, according to Statista, a projected 6 billion people will use

social media in 2027 across all of the social platforms (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, Pinterest,

TikTok, etc.). As a channel marketing strategy, there’s a good chance you can reach your desired audience with

a solid social media strategy.

jumping-off point to inspire your unique approach.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Androulidakis G. Kandus (2011). Studies correlated the brand of mobile phone users’ security

practices. Users show different behavior in an array of characteristics, according to the brand of the mobile

phone they are using. As such, there is categorization of arrears, different for each brand, where users are

clearly lacking security mind, possibly due to lack of awareness. Such a categorization can help phone

manufacturers enhance their mobile phones in regards to security, preferably transparently for the user.

Nasr Azad Maryam Safaei (2012). Studies states that there are many evidences to believe that

customers select their products based on brand name. Products also maintain their own characteristics, which

make them differentiable from others. In this paper, researchers have presented an empirical study to determine

important factors influencing customers' purchasing intend for cellular phones in capital city of Iran, Tehran.

The results of the study show that there are some positive relationships between exclusive name and quality

perception, between exclusive name and word of mouth advertisement, between quality perception and fidelity,

between word-of-mouth advertisement and brand name and between brand name image and brand name.

Ozhan Karimi (2012). Studies had presented an empirical study to investigate the effects of different

marketing efforts on brand equity in mobile industry. The results show that there is a positive and meaningful

relationship between marketing mix efforts and brand equity. In other words, more advertisements could help

better market exposure, which means customers will have more awareness on market characteristics. Among all

mixed efforts, guarantee influences more on brand equity, which means consumers care more on product

services than other features. Finally, among different characteristics of brand equity, product exclusiveness

plays an important role. In other words, people are interested in having exclusive product, which is different

from others.

22
Heikki Karjaluoto, Jari Karvonen et al, (2005). Studies had analyzed that Mobile phone markets are

one of the most turbulent market environments today due to increased competition and change. Thus, it is of

growing concern to look at consumer buying

decision process and cast light on the factors that finally determine consumer choices between different

mobile phone brands. On this basis, this research deals with consumers’ choice criteria in mobile phone markets

by studying factors that influence intention to acquire new mobile phones on one hand and factors that influence

on mobile phone change on the other are some general factors that seem to guide the choices. The two studies

show that while technical problems are the basic reason to change mobile phone among students; price, brand,

interface, and properties are the most influential factors affecting the actual choice between brands.

Hande Kimiloglu, V. Aslihan Nasir, Süphan Nasir, (2010). Studies aims to discover consumer

segments with different behavioral profiles in the mobile phone market. Pragmatic consumers are found to give

high importance to the functional, physical and convenience-based attributes of the product. The abstemious

group also gives importance to functionality along with design. While value-conscious consumers focus

strongly on price, the charismatic segment represents the want-it-all group valuing many attributes such as

technological superiority, practicality, durability, functionality, and design. The study also includes findings and

discussions about the differences these clusters display in terms of their involvement and loyalty styles.

Fred Robins (2003). Studies analyzed that the marketing of the next generation of mobile phones. It

begins with comments on the state of the telecom industry and draws attention to elements of technological and

product convergence, highlighting the point that while industry convergence on digital technology is a fact,

today’s mobile telephony marketplace is nonetheless characterized by three generations of technology and the

latest generation, 3G, embraces three related but competing standards. The research examines 2G, 2 and a half

G and 3G developments around the world and identifies factors relevant to the marketing of 3G, including

recognition of geographical and user diversity and the consequent need for marketers to keep these various user

perspectives in mind. However, customer desire for personalisation, including personalised 3G services, are

important features of the marketplace, as will be the availability of simple, secure payment systems.

Jaakko Sinisalo, Jari Salo, Heikki Karjaluoto, Matti Leppäniemi, (2007). Studies states that the

purpose of their study is twofold. First, in order to guarantee a coherent discussion about mobile customer
