„Fitting you stupid competition for ever“
I once a seminar for entrepreneur educators, to whom a university professor gave a called discussion „, fit yourselves you provided stupid on competition. “I could not resist the title, therefore I considered. The condition of the speaker was that relatively intelligent competitors understand the dangers, if drastic and steps offering no prospects are too undertaken to compete you and understand you that competition is a fabric of a free marked out you system. Therefore they function rationally and predictably. Stupid competitors however do not think things out. For example, they could cut prices up to now, them inevitably lose money or form warranties, which finally destroy their companies. Such steps could lead too their ruin, but they could lead easily you to the ruin of the competitors in addition. If you buy Widgets for $10 and your competitor first does, are the same however the beginnings it for $9 selling you both in the trouble. It is unbelievably stupid, in addition, not company can survive for too long in this film script. A intelligent competitor can sell a product for one while, which is helpless, but he understands the mathematics well enough, in order to know that he cannot lose you money on each sale in hope of her to continual form in the volume. A logical consequence to this basic rule could be „to watch out adjustment Rome competition. “AT PRESENT net development is a hot field for entrepreneurs, including lifestyle entrepreneurs. The problem is that some student and even some School class participants 88 as one follows as a lifestyle entrepreneur as adults twice is as able their age at the creation of web site. However although adults families and obligations could have (read expenses), could the class participants are pleased, around to work for a straight enough new laptop or a flat map to the coast to buy. Such competition is not insurmountable. Sure some in the future clients strive the reduced in price class participant work, but at those, the responsibility, Professionalismus and other one factors, which come with ripe ones, regard look over price. As discussed forwards (and as again one discusses), it is an affair of defining your niche and offering this niche. In a case you like class participant competition, do not aim not the niche, the low price regard the key criterion for choice. As soon as your initial research is finally assuming and a good announcement over possible success, your following steps refer also to determine like you the customers win and financial projections form to set you your prospects in dollar and cents expressed and for letter A fundamental enterprise plan. These topics in the following covers chapters. C H A P T E R 89 marketing a business begins Kunde-ein with a common place, which also seems obviously mentions. But people lose sight of it and it earn mention. It is more simply, than one would think, with to be diverted the Myriade publishes a confronting of a becoming business and forgets this to most integral contribution to any company: Customer. By his definition customers will receive by marketing. That is, which marketing is: Offer of a product or services these people or need and to find those, which wish or need it, and convincing them wish to buy it. As such is that marked out on much heart of any and of each business. To many people meant the advertisement and promotion marked that out. We hear frequently of advertising campaign of a company Fernseh characterized as its advertising campaign. The advertisement is indeed A divides you, although the most visible part, marketing; but the advertisement is only one element of marketing. Marketing is received the complete system from customers and holds. 1985 the committee for definitions of American marketing-federation-defined marketing as follows: Marketing is the process of planning and execution the view, the price calculation, the promotion and the distribution of 5 90 as one as a lifestyle entrepreneur follows ideas, goods and services to cause Austau those satisfies individual and organizational objectives. A briefly more seized definition of a marketing text: Marketing can be defined short LY as those activities that to refer an organization successfully on its environment. (David G. Hughes, Vertriebsleitung, Addison-wesley, 1978.) The point is that marketing refers much more than announcing. It is the total process of influencing on it their customer and future customers. Many lifestyle companies actually do not do, even some rather large still announce, nevertheless them do you to marketing. Four HP if you a Intro to the marketing course take, experience you that marketing four HP exists. These four HP of marketing are product, price, place and promotion. Admittedly differently formulating little had to be done, in order to find suitable words, to also begin marks you P, but this supplies a useful way nevertheless to understand which marketing is approximate. Let us a view at that four HP have. Product of this is, which you offer to your future customer. It could be a perceptible product or an untouchable service. Ideally should be sketched the product (or the service) and offered, over to react to the necessities for a defined goal market. In school a company formed a product for the old that it thought that it could convince people purchase, anxious then, itself it by the advertisement to sell direct sales and whatever could be used different method around this product to receive sold. The illuminated new school struggles the product should around the necessities for its intended market be sketched and 5/Marketing 91 if necessary changed to improve around seat those necessities. If a company can form you a product the fact that its goal market needs it and knows the necessities, the fight is at least won half. In the small firm the product should be manufactured to the special one necessities for a market gap. Clothes of the children, the one became purchase at the plant of a mass merchandiser are not the same product as all-natural 100 per cent of cotton clothes sketched for marketing niche, the clothes of the all-natural children search. The mass merchandiser can decide well that the market for all cotton clothes is so small that it is hardly worth the annoyance with. It knows A its profitable product for a small firm nevertheless interested to serve for, a certain niche. Price on the surface does not need price explanation it is, like much you loads for your product or maintains. It is however a little more involved than that. E.G., there is competition-oriented Preisbestimmung or price calculation to bring together or strike to your competition. This is a Common method of the price calculation, which works well for large companies, those enjoys cost degression and sufficient volume, to the money at A highly earning low price margin. However competing is basedly on price generally dangerously for smaller companies, those not economic systems enjoys of the scale. Although each company must consider determining Preis to a degree in the light, which others load, it is to best one to sketch entire price calculation strategy to avoid basedly on determining under price competition. When smaller companies higher costs have rule inside products to produce, because they cannot receive the same quantity discounts and economic systems, which know large companies. None can carry small businesses itself to lose money on a detail temporarily for product or service out as large companies make in hopes of the production a market share (or in hopes of setting other one from business). Do not assume that the lower price tightens automatically more customer. E.G. if a new doctor in the city set an indication in his window, which read „Special: Full physical examination only $9,95 “92 as one as a lifestyle entrepreneur follows or a new dentist announced „two grants, those for the price of was filled, “you was provoked, in order to visit any of these specialists? Probably not. For somewhat freelance services future clients expect you that a higher price is an announcement over higher ability, and a price well below the stock exchange course is met distrust. This basic rule work for perceptible products in addition. Would you be distrustful of a new feinschmeckerischen coffee tube, which sells coffee for 40 cents bowl? Luxuxpreiskalkulation is a strategy, which uses, for lack of a better expression Snobanklang. I argue that with respect to a blind taste test, few Wodkatrinker could differentiate vodka, a bottle $15 or a bottle $20 between a bottle $12 from. Nevertheless bet I that even who miserably misidentify, those Schluckchen of which bottle belonged and explained that they would not change however their Wodka buying preferences did. People draw their identity in the part of their indulgence. The same basic rule holds for jewelry, cars, clothes and all kind of other things. Simply indicated, some people pull it before to pay more, to keep them somewhat better to believe.
