Marketing Management/ Philip Kotler
Marketers must know when to:
- cultivate large markets or niche markets;
- launch new brands or extend existing brand names;
- push or pull products through distribution;
- protect the domestic market or penetrate aggressively into foreign markets;
- add more benefits to the offer or reduce the price;
- expand or contract budgets for sales force, advertising, and other marketing tools.
Maslow introduced the concept of a hierarchy of needs which has formed an integral part of marketing, human resource, motivational, and management literature ever since. The book makes an important contribution to the emergence of human relations as a professional discipline.
