For readers committed to a career in marketing (and we hope there are many), this book forms a solid foundation as you study marketing further and deeper. But the vast majority of you will not work in marketing departments, but will instead become senior executives, general managers, CFOs, and CEOs. This book is also for you because a solid understanding and appreciationfor marketing is central to virtually every important decision senior managers make. This may be the only marketing course many of you will take, so \u003cem\u003eManaging Marketing in the 21st Century\u003c\/em\u003e provides what every general manager and senior executive must know about marketing. Marketing activity lies at the core of leading and managing a business, by providing the focus for interfacing with customers. Marketing is also the source of insight about customers and market forces (complementors, competitors, supply chain, publics), external forces, and the business environment in general. Marketing is concerned with the firm’s long-run relationships with customers as well as shortrun sales activity. Marketing must be a major organizational thrust, not just a responsibility assigned to a single functional department. For this reason, \u003cem\u003eManaging Marketing in the 21st Century\u003c\/em\u003e emphasizes the role of marketing in creating value for customers — leading directly to the creation of value for other In addition to a general upgrade, the 5th edition of MM21C introduces some genuinely new ideas into marketing that, we believe, will be significantly beneficial for marketing practitioners:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e■ Customer insight.

We reject the view that market insight should focus only on the 3Cs — customers, company, competitors:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e– Customers should be treated as a separate category. These are the entities to which the firm offers value in seeking revenues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e– Supply chain, publics, and complementors are important market entities whose actions may have a profound impact on the firm’s ability to achieve its objectives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e– Complementors are especially important.

In this formulation, product is often a grab bag for all value the firm offers to customers. We depart from conventional thinking in three ways:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e– First, we affirmatively accept that the term product encompasses the value the firm offers customers.
