Coca-Cola Marketing
Along with all of the new terminology, new techniques, and new twists the Internet has brought us, it has also opened opportunities for misguided notions about the definition of marketing. While the above definitions describe different facets or definitions of related terms, they do not convey the much broader process that is truly marketing. By taking a look at some dictionary and trade definitions of marketing we can get a better feel for what marketing is truly about: * American Marketing Association Definition The process of planning and executing the conception, pricing, promotion, and distribution of ideas, goods, and services to create exchanges that satisfy individual and organizational objectives. Marketing plays an important part in ensuring the products consumers want are readily available. The Chartered Institute of Marketing's definition provides a clear picture of the activities involved. We can describe marketing like: ' the management process responsible for identifying, anticipating and satisfying the customer requirements profitability.'

A subsidy is a grant given by government to encourage the production or consumption of a particular good or service.
TOPIC 2 A subsidy is a grant given by government to encourage the production or consumption of a particular good or service. (Anderton, 1999, P70) Subsidy, along with taxation, is known as an important form of government intervention in the market. Subsidies, for example, could be given on essential industries as housing and salt. Alternatively, they may be given to firms that employ disadvantage workers, such as people with disabilities. Governments may also subsidise firms to protect domestically produced goods in competition with imported goods. A subsidy will lead to a shift in the demand or supply curve, in turn this will affect the market equilibrium price level and equilibrium output of a good or service. The effect of a subsidy is depends on which side of the market, for example, buyers or sellers, is subsidised. The benefit generated from the subsidy will also be shared between consumers and producers according to the price elasticity of demand and supply. P S1 A1 S'1 B1 C1 D1 Q E1 F1 FIGURE 1 First, if the subsidy is paid to the producers, producers will have the incentive to supply more at any given price, because the subsidy indirectly reduced the cost of production. In this case, as shown in Figure 1, it will lead
SunCity - developing marketing strategy for problem
Sun City-Introduction Introduction In 2005 Sun City was primarily a tanning salon; it offered stand up and lie-down sunbeds. It opened its one and only shop in Kettering town centre in Northamptonshire and it was small and unknown in the town as it is not a franchise and has no other shops. Now, in 2007 things have changed, the company has grown and is now a well known tanning salon including features such as a nail bar, and hairdressers. The store is based in the town centre just off the high street; this aids in attracting a lot of customers. Especially as they offer walk in appointments, no need to book. The back of the store is also facing into the town centre's main car park, which they have used to their advantage by displaying billboards and advertisements. Recently Sun City has expanded and although still primarily a tanning salon, now offers nail therapy, hairdressing, and spray tanning. Because now they offer more of a variety of services they are able to sell more upmarket well known brands of products e.g., tigi hair products and californiation spray tanning. Sun City has also recently refurbished their salon to make way for their hairdressing and nail therapy. The salon looks very professional and clean and modern, as shown above. With their vast range of products on show this allows for more purchases to be made. When Sun City first opened 2 years ago, it
Ansoff and Boston Matrix
Ansoff matrix: New product development is an option in the Ansoff's product-market growth matrix, a instrument used by business to identify numerous options a business could adopt to increase its sales. Depending on the aims and objectives of the business, and strategy it wants to adopt, the Ansoff matrix will suggest one of four options which are shown below in a table I found on the search engine 'Google'. Market penetration - the safest option, based on selling more to existing customers. Market development - seeking new channels of distribution or selling in different geographical areas. Product development - selling new products into the existing market, with all the risks associated with a new product. Diversification - the area of highest risk, based on developing new products for new markets. Market penetration is one of the four growth strategies as defined by Ansoff. Market penetration occurs when a company enters/penetrates a market with current products. The best way to achieve this is by gaining competitors' customers. Other ways include attracting non-users of your product or convincing current clients to use more of your product/service. Product development: A firm with a market for its current products might embark on a strategy of developing other products catering to the same market. For example, McDonalds is always within the fast-food industry, but

Article" Green Curbs Hit Platinum Supply" Source- "http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/1998102.stm" Text Commentary About Section "Supply and Demand" Monday, 20 May, 2002, 11:08 GMT 12:08 UK Green Curbs Hit Platinum Supply Carmakers use platinum to curb pollution Growing international pressure for more environmentally friendly cars is threatening to exacerbate a shortage of the precious metal platinum. Soaring demand from the car industry, which uses platinum in catalytic converters to reduce engine emissions, has outstripped supply of the precious metal. Platinum demand has risen in line with the tightening of green legislation both in the United States and in the European Union. A global shortage is likely to remain for quite a while despite a recent sharp rise in output from platinum producers, a leading industry official has warned. Firm prices Platinum is also used for jewelry and in the production of computer memory disks. Global platinum prices have climbed sharply from a low of $406 (£278m) an ounce last October - when confidence in the world economy had been hit by terror attacks in the US.

Oil price and demand
INTRODUCTION In Earlier days man needed Food, Air and Water for Survival but with the Advent of Time and Technology another very Important Factor was added to this list that is 'OIL'. The price of oil is of critical importance to today's world economy, given that oil is the largest internationally traded good, both in volume and value terms (creating what some analysts have called a "hydrocarbon economy"). In addition, the prices of energy-intensive goods and services are linked to energy prices, of which oil makes up the single most important share. The word petroleum has its roots in the Latin word oleum, which means oil and the Greek word petra, which means Rock. As the price of oleum has soared, the links between fear and petroleum become clear to economists. Fears of heating-oil shortage this winter helped to push the benchmark price of crude over $ 55 per barrel, which is a new record. The spike in oil prices, up by over 60% since the start of the year, is, in turn raising fears for the global recovery. Oil prices have gone up by 30% in the past 12 months and are now well over the $22-$28 target range set by the Opec (Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) oil cartel. There are two benchmarks for world oil prices. One is the Futures contract - an agreement for future delivery at a specified time; place and price-for the US light crude. The contract
