marketing concept: Are businesses that create products people love acting in the best long-
run interests of consumers and society?
For example, McDonald’s and other fast-food restaurants and not really getting this “societal
marketing thing…” Most fast-food companies offer tasty but unhealthy food. (The bane of
our existences)
The food typically will have high fat content and will then supplement those meals with fries,
pies and soda which also are not healthy choices either. The food is then wrapped in
convenient packing which most times ends up on the ground somewhere as waste.
Now, I love McDonald’s food and a lot of people enjoy what fast-food chains offer therefore
satisfying consumer wants but at what cost? These companies, although making customers
happy, may be hurting consumer health and causing environmental problems.
Conclusion
All of these marketing concept mindsets can help you achieve organizational goals depending
on if you understand the needs and wants of your target market while delivering quality
products people prefer.
Under the marketing concept, customer focus and value are the routes to achieve sales and
profits.
The marketing concept is a customer-centered “sense and responds” philosophy. The job is
not to find the right customers for your product but to find the right products for your
customers.
