re ace

We are proud to introdt1ce the fourteenth edition of A Pre.face to Marketin.g Man,agement.

Our plan has always been to deliver a clear and concise presentation of the basic princi­

ples of marketing in such a way that the core concepts and ideas are covered in sufficient

depth to ensure in-depth understanding, By offering an engaging, clear, and conceptu­

ally sound text, our book has been able to maintain its position as a leading marketing

management text.

Througl1ot1t the history of the book, feedback from botl1 students and instructors has

suggested that our plan is a good one. Our book has been used in a wide variety of set­

tings and is the best-selling book of its kind. We introduce the fourteenth edition knowing

that our book and its eight foreign translations have been used around the world vvhenever

courses require an overview of the critical aspects of marketing manage1nent.

With this edition, we seek to n1ore effectively implement our plan by building on a

strong foundation, maintaining the attributes and elements of the book tl1at make i t a very

teachable text, updating existir1g content, adding new content, and focusing the presenta­

tion. We seek to emphasize qttality content and examples and avoid excess verbiage, pic­

tures, and description.

As usual, each time we revise the book there is a11 e1nphasis on responding to feedback

from students and instructors. These two constituencies plus our own intuitions drive each

revision, Marketing is an exciting and dynamic field of study, We want to capture the

sense of excitement and at the same time respect its history.

Our book has become known simply as tl1e Preface. We want to believe a major reason

it has endured is that because marketing is figuring out how to do a superior job of satisfy­

ing customers, we simply try to practice what we preach. Welcorne to the Pre.face.

THE PRESENT EDITION

Every elem.ent of content in our book is designed with one thought in mind: to assist stu­

dents in analyzing marketing problems and cases and developing and writing marketing

plans. Section I of the book consists of 13 concise chapters that cover the essentials of mar­

keting management. We think of it as the "must know" content of the field. It is divided

into four parts that foct1s on strategic planning and marketing planning, ttnderstanding tar­

get markets, tl1e marketing mix, and marketing in special fields. These 13 chapters should

provide students a clear understanding of the tenninology, techniques, tools, and strategies

for effective 1narketing management and marketing strategy development.

In addition to revising and updating the text chapters, this edition contains new content as

well. There are discussions of internal and external secondary data sources, the use of social

media monitoring, a]ten1ative searcl1 in consumer behavior, key characteristics of organi z a ­

tional buyers, e-procurement, global virtual teams, brand equity, using distinctive compe­

tencies in new product development, consumer databases, business-to-business databases,

mobile marketing, online retailing and multichannel marketing, franchising, the effects of t11e Internet on pricing, global account 1nanagers, and ]earning about different cultures.

In the twelfth edition, we altered two of the text elements. The changes have been well

received by instructors and stt1dents. First, "Marketing Insights" are included to assist students

as they solve marketing problems, analyze marketing cases, and develop marketing plans.

Second, we know that our book is often used with case problems, writing assignments,

and constructing marketing plans. Accordingly, there i s an "Additional Resources" section

vii

viii Preface

at the end of each chapter. Our purpose is to highlight current resoLLrces that students can

use in writing assign111ents and oral presentations. The resources have been selected with

students in mind. Tl1ey include resources accessible to students at various stages of 111ar­

keting education given the wide spectrum of courses in which the book is utilized.

STUDENT SUPPORT

Knowing tl1at our book is used for a variety of course levels, programs, and students, we

have assembled several elements that we believe will support students for whatever pur­

pose they use our book.

Key Terms and Concepts

New to the previous edition, we decided to add a section of key terms and concepts at the conclusion of each chapter. There was mucl1 debate as to wl1ere they sl1ould be placed in

the book. We decided to place them at the end of the chapter in which they appear. In this

way, they are more visible to students than as an appendix at the end of the book. More

than a glossary, it also presents key concepts covered in the chapter.

Analyzing Marketing Problems and Cases

Section TI presents a very practical and comprehensive framework for analyzing, prepar­

ing, a.nd presenting case analyses. It includes discussions of what a case is, preparing for

the class discussion and written analysis, pitfalls to avoid i n case analysis, and preparing

to do an oral presentation. It has been praised by both instructors and students.

For courses utilizing marketing problems and cases, w e encourage students to read this

guide before discussing a problem or case. Tl1us, it could l1ave been placed at the begin­

ning of the book, but because it is often referred to throughout the semester, we have

placed it after the text chapters. And for those courses that do not utilize cases, the book

1nay be used without reference to tl1is section.

Financial Analysis for Marketing Decisions

It is absolutely critical for marketing students to understand. and appreciate the fact that

the ultimate objectives of marketing are usually expressed in financial terms. Section ill

enables students to assess a company's financial position. It presents important financial

calculations that are useful in evaluating the financial position of a finn and the financial

impact of various decisions and strategies. Included are discussions of breakeven analysis,

net present value, and ratio analysis.

Developing Marketing Plans

Given the purpose of this book and the needs of users, Section IV enables students to develop practical planning skills so they are able to construct a quality marketing plan for

Preface xi

any product or service. It provides a complete format for structuring and presenting one,

including specific questions to ask in competitive analysis, the development of well-stated

objectives, analyzing custo1ners, and implementation and control. A s with Section II, we

know that this section has become a valuable take-away resource for many students long

after their course has been completed.

A Value-Added Website

We encourage students to view the student section of tl1e Online Leaming Center (OLC)

at website www.mhhe.com/peterdonnelly14e, which contains a number of useful aids for

facilitating learning and supporting student achievement. We believe you will find i t a

useful resource.

INSTRUCTOR SUPPORT

The Preface has been used as a resotrrce in college courses and professional development

programs that require an overview of the critical "need-to-know" aspects of marketing

management and marketing strategy development. It has been used:

As the primary introductory text at the undergraduate level.

• At both the undergraduate and MBA level, where several AACSB core curriculum

courses are team-taught as one multidisciplinary 9- to 12-hour course.

• At the advanced undergraduate and MBA level where it is used as the content founda­

tion in courses that utilize marketing cases.

• In short courses and executive development programs.

The instructor section of www.mhl1e.com/peterdonne1Jy14e inc]udes an instructor's

manual and other support material. It includes two expanded suppletnents. They were

developed in response to instructors' requests. We offer a test bank of nearly 1,300

multiple-choice, true-false, and brief essay questions. It is available in both print and

EZ Test Online. We also offer Power Point slides that highlight key text material. Your McGraw-Hill representative can also assist in the delivery of any additiona1 instructor

support materia1.

Our book i s based on the works of many acade1nic researchers and marketing practitioners.

We want to thank those individuals who conuibuted tl1eir ideas to develop the field of m a r ­ keting throughout the years. Indeed, our book would not b e possible without their contri­

butions. We would also like to thank our teachers, colleagues, and students for their many

contributions to our education. We would also like to publicly acknowledge those individu­

als who served as reviewers of this and previous editions. We appreciate their advice and counsel and have done our best to reflect their insightful com111ents.
