ideas, in return for something valuable)
Customer-engagement marketing = making brand meaningful to customers’ lives

Barnacles = loyal, but not profitable
Strangers = low potential profitability and little projected loyalty
Lecture 2 – Company and environment
Ansoff’s Matrix = helps companies to choose what to do with its offerings and market:
Market penetration = sell
existing
product to existing market
Market development = sell
existing
product to new market
Product development = sell
new
product to existing market
Diversification = try to find
new market
for new product (most riskiest).3 forms
- Concentric (new products related)
- Horizontal (new product unrelated)
- Conglomerate (new products
significantly unrelated) = most risky
Things that influence the company and its marketing:
Macroenvironment (affect company):
- Political (handy to have good political relationships)
- Economic (factors in marketing environment)
- Societal / cultural (socially responsible, provide enjoyable lives)
- Technological (technology assessment = foresee effects of new product)

- Environmental / natural (sustainability)
= PESTLE (macroenvironment analysis)
, Microenvironment (affect marketing strategies, it is about competition):
