Definition

 Marketing is about anticipating and identifying the
  wants and needs of a target market of
  consumers, then satisfying those needs in order to
  make a profit
 Firstly, travel and tourism organisations must
  understand their customers’ demands. This is the
  ‘anticipating’ and ‘identifying’ part of the definition
Marketing Research

 Anticipating and identifying demands depends on
  effective marketing research
 Research into the existing and potential market
 We will look into this in detail in the Activity
Marketing Research

 Classifying customers according to socio-economic
  status, lifestyle, family circumstances, gender and
  so on
 May involve primary research –
  surveys, observation, questionnaires
 And/or secondary research – statistics and
  records, quantitative and qualitative
Classifying Customers

 A target market consists of a whole group of
  potential customers, drawn from the whole
  population
 It’s better to define the target market as a
  collection of ‘segments’
 Each segment will have different characteristics
 Each segment’s needs and wants must be satisfied
Market Segmentation

 In the domestic tourism market the following
 segments may be involved:

 General business tourism
 Holidays and breaks pre-family
 Long holidays
 Activity holidays
 Group holidays
Marketing Mix

 The way in which current and potential customers’
  demands are satisfied depends on the marketing
  mix of the organisation’s products and services:
 Traditionally 4 elements of the mix – Product,
  Price, Promotion and Place
 In the modern travel and tourism industry it’s
  usual to look at 6
