Beschreibung

An eye-opening discussion of the future of marketing, from four of the leading minds in the field

In Entrepreneurial Marketing: Beyond Professional Marketing, a renowned team of marketing leaders, including the “Father of Modern Marketing,” Professor Philip Kotler, delivers a groundbreaking and incisive redefinition of entrepreneurial marketing. In the book, some of the marketing sector’s brightest minds explore the increasingly essential initiative to build new capabilities beyond the mainstream marketing approach that also consider the effect of digital connectivity on consumers and companies everywhere. This book also discusses what marketers need to do to break the stagnation of normative marketing approaches that are often no longer effective in dealing with dynamic business environments.

The authors introduce a fresh entrepreneurial marketing approach, converging dichotomies into a coherent form. The book also includes:

  • A post-entrepreneurial-marketing view of the commercial landscape which puts the operational aspect at the center of the action, converging marketing and finance, and adopting technology for humanity
  • Discussions of the strategies and techniques that will drive the actions of the marketing departments to create value with values that will lead the company to success through the year 2030
  • Explorations of the paradox between the development of core competencies and collaboration with various parties, including competitors

The latest publication from some of the foremost minds in marketing—and in business, generally—Entrepreneurial Marketing: Beyond Professional Marketing is a must-read combination of unique insight, concrete advice, and implementable strategies that introduce a new mindset for every professional marketer, entrepreneur, and business leaders worldwide.

PRAISE FOR ENTREPRENEURIAL MARKETING

“Kotler and colleagues are at it again. There are no parts of marketing that Phil and his collaborators have not had their imprint. This book takes us from the previously established omnichannel literature on how we go to marketing through a multiplicity of interrelated channels to an inner perspective on the need in 2023 to redesign the organization on how we work in an omnihouse model. They outline how the interconnectedness of every part of the organization is essential with all the changes in the world and how we operate today. They define the new structure for today's firm to survive and thrive. Bravo!!!”

—David J. Reibstein

Professor of Marketing

The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania

“Marketing people often get caught up merely in tactical matters. This book provides a holistic perspective so that business people, especially marketers, can understand things more strategically in providing solutions for customers and other stakeholders while maintaining satisfactory profit margins and being concerned about the company's market value.”

—Hermann Simon

Founder and Honorary Chairman

Simon‐Kucher & Partners

“I love the fundamental idea of having an entrepreneurial mindset and tools to augment the existing professional competence rather than replace it. This book shows how an entrepreneurial mindset, with its creativity, agility, and ‘can‐do' attitude, needs to augment the professional competence of the modern firm faced with dynamic marketing places.”

―David Aaker

Professor Emeritus

University of California, Berkeley's Haas School of Business

“Marketing Entrepreneurship is an expertly‐conceived book that puts front and center the role of marketing in the success of new enterprises. It is a “must‐read” for entrepreneurs, new and seasoned alike.”

―Stanley F. Stasch

Professor Emeritus

Loyola University Chicago

“The horizons of marketing science are continuously expanding. Entrepreneurial marketing is also developing, more strongly intertwined with many aspects, and showing a progressively crucial role in business performance. I am happy that this book can simplify those complexities and take us to the new frontier of entrepreneurial marketing.”

Foreword

This book is a timely gift to the next generation of marketers. Entrepreneurial Marketing could be the playbook for what Henry David Thoreau described as “a conscientious corporation … a corporation with a conscience for humanity.”

The book lays out pragmatic and proven frameworks for 21st‐century marketers to create a collaborative and sustainable civilization. Its intellectual rigor is impeccable.

I recommend you keep Entrepreneurial Marketing within arm's reach (as a sequel to Kotler's renowned Marketing Management, now in its 16th edition!). Entrepreneurial Marketing is a must‐read for CEOs, CFOs, CIOs, and other senior staff people. It does an excellent job with accounting and financial analytical tools. It does an insightful job in looking at future developments in marketing and how to remain flexible and alert for the inherent managerial tensions inside any firm.

—Russ Klein, former ad agency executive, Leo Burnett; Foote, Cone & Belding; former CMO of Inspire Brands (Arby's, 7‐Eleven, Dr Pepper/7UP, Church's Chicken); former global president Burger King

Prologue: Marketing in the Post‐Normal Era

So much has changed in the last years, from technological advances that revolutionize the way we communicate to globe‐shaking events like COVID‐19. Although much uncertainty surrounds these shifts, one factor remains clear. Business will never be the same.

And that includes marketing. In the past, a traditional or procedural approach to marketing might have produced reliable results, time and again. In this book, we'll refer to this setup as professional marketing. It is often associated with concepts such as segmentation, targeting, positioning, and product and brand management. The slow‐moving, one‐step‐at‐a‐time methodology may have been a great fit for a less connected era.

That's no longer the case. Today's fast‐paced, shifting world calls for a marketing strategy that can fit in everywhere—and be agile enough to move when needed. An entrepreneurial approach may be the ticket for organizations to be interconnected, flexible, and results‐driven.

Although the concept of entrepreneurial marketing isn't necessarily new, a more expanded version is essential. Its original definition referred to a combination of marketing and entrepreneurship elements. However, due to recent developments around the world, this approach must encompass a broader scope, a holistic perspective, if you will. One that integrates all the other departments of a company. One that doesn't remain in a silo, as marketing (and other functions) has often done in the past. It also converges an entrepreneurial mindset and a professional mindset.

This new genre of entrepreneurial marketing takes the center stage as we consider how our world has been disrupted by the pandemic. It remains important as we evaluate the technologies currently available that can connect us. When we look ahead to the coming years, we see approaching finish lines for initiatives like the Sustainability Development Goals. The United Nations adopted these in 2015 as a framework to end poverty and protect the planet. Their time line aims to achieve these goals by 2030.

In some ways, the foundation has been laid for this new version of entrepreneurial marketing. Think of online technology, for instance. Customers can easily search for what they want, get to know companies, and make purchases. Small and large companies alike can get involved in this interactive communication. The arrangement creates paths for stronger engagement, increased customer retention, and higher levels of loyalty.

Entrepreneurial marketing takes these capabilities to the next level. It seeks ways to not only connect with customers but also to speak directly to them. It is more hands on. (Want to know if a solution is working? Rather than running a report, just ask the customers!)

In addition, digital advances have made it easier than ever to integrate various functions of an organization. Entrepreneurial marketing interacts with other areas, including finances, technology departments, and operations. It supports leadership (and takes on a leadership role itself) and strategizes initiatives. It advocates for innovation and responds quickly to change. Effectively, it adds value for the organization and its shareholders.

If you're starting to think the new genre of entrepreneurial marketing sounds quite a bit like an entrepreneur, you are correct. This methodology encourages risk‐taking and is results‐oriented.1 It craves productivity and is always on the lookout for opportunities to improve.2 There are so many great potentials in the new genre of entrepreneurial marketing that you can take advantage of.

CHAPTER 1The Omnihouse Model: A Holistic Perspective of Entrepreneurial Marketing

The rapidly changing business environment, especially after the world was hit by the COVID‐19 pandemic, demands a new, more holistic marketing approach—a concept that can be a strong foundation for organizations when facing various challenges in the present and especially in the future. In this chapter, we look at the various elements that are part of the new genre of entrepreneurial marketing.

To make it easier to understand this new genre of entrepreneurial marketing concept, we'll use a framework called the omnihouse model (see Figure 1.1). This model demonstrates our vision of how entrepreneurial marketing should be carried out. It also shows how the approach integrates with an entire organization. We will use it as a guide throughout this book.

Omni―which comes from the Latin omnis―means “to combine.” In the model's name, it is used with the word house, which represents a place, facility, or business. Thus, omnihouse refers to an organization that combines multiple elements. Each of these components plays an individual role and also collaborates with the other parts of the business.

The omnihouse model is a framework that can be used to implement strategies and achieve specific goals. We'll discuss it briefly here. We'll also refer in depth to its different components in the following chapters.

The core of this model is housed in two clusters. The first cluster is the entrepreneurship group, comprising four elements: creativity, innovation, entrepreneurship, and leadership (CI‐EL). The second cluster is professionalism group, which also comprises four components: productivity, improvement, professionalism, and management (PI‐PM).

FIGURE 1.1 The omnihouse model

Notice these clusters are surrounded by other functions and interact with them. They are affected by dynamics (see the top left of Figure 1.1), which constitutes five drivers: technology, political/legal (including regulations), economy, social/cultural, and market. These drivers, which collectively are called change, affect the other 4Cs elements: competitor, customer, and company.

This dynamics component serves as the foundation to develop marketing strategies and tactics, as outlined in the competitiveness triangle at the top right of the model. Within the triangle, PBD stands for positioning, differentiation, and brand. This is the anchor for the other main elements of marketing: segmentation, targeting, marketing mix, selling, service, and processes.

The dynamics element is also the basis for developing ideas, which leads to creativity. These ideas can be converted into innovation in the form of tangible solutions for customers. These creative ideas must use various company's capital productively. The solutions provided to customers need to result in improvements, as reflected in the company's better profit margins. Thus, the convergence of creativity/innovation and productivity/improvement elements affects the balance sheet (listed as B/S) and income statement (listed as I/S).

Elements of creativity and improvement can generate competitiveness only if we involve people with solid mindsets of entrepreneurship and leadership to manage them. Value creation is the responsibility of entrepreneurs, and leaders maintain values. However, we also need to support entrepreneurship and leadership with solid professionalism and management. This condition, in turn, can propel the company forward.

What we see in the balance sheet and income statement is a result of the past. What we are doing now, especially through the strong convergence of entrepreneurship/professionalism and leadership/management elements, will determine a company's cash flow (listed as C/F) and market value (listed as M/V). Thus, we gain a picture of how the organization will perform in the future.

As laid out in the omnihouse model, it is essential to integrate marketing with finance and also integrate technology and humanity. The term humanity refers to main stakeholders, namely, people, customers, and society. Collectively, these functions support the actions that lead to financial and nonfinancial results.

Note that in the heart of the model we have operations. This function takes marketing objectives and places them into action and, at the same time, ensures financial goals can be achieved. Operations that also bridge that use of technology will ultimately be impactful for humanity. The operations capabilities interact with the other capabilities to keep a company moving forward and competitive within its industry. The operations capabilities also enable the organization to adapt quickly to any changes in the business environment.

Overcoming Marketing Blind Spots

The term marketing myopia refers to a condition in which a company is too focused on producing goods or services. It overlooks the customer's actual needs and desires. Theodore Levitt introduced the concept in 1960, and it became widespread during the following decades.

In response to this issue, many companies adopted a customer‐centric approach. This places the customer as the starting point in product and service development. It prioritizes the client experience across multiple touchpoints.1

The question is, did it work? Perhaps for some. However, this new focus actually led to another set of issues, which we'll call marketing blind spots. Let's define it and look at how it can be problematic. We'll then see how entrepreneurial marketing can solve these challenges.

We can define a marketing blind spot as a condition in which a company has carried out various marketing management processes properly but did not realize there are still many unconnected elements. No one has looked around at other dynamics that could play a role in how marketing is carried out. In turn, these blind spots hamper the company and ultimately cause it to lose its ability to compete.

Some of the common marketing blind spots are discussed in the next sections.

Ignoring the Macroenvironment

What happens in the macroenvironment can affect the microenvironment. In marketing science, there are aspects of strategy and aspects of tactics. The formulation of a marketing strategy must refer to the corporate strategy. Meanwhile, corporate strategy is shaped by, among other things, the existing macroeconomic conditions. However, marketing in practice often does not pay sufficient attention to the macroeconomic aspects. For instance, it may be challenging for marketing executives to link phenomena in the macroenvironment with the tactical policies in the company.

We define marketing as market‐ing (not marketing), which means how we deal with the very dynamic and ever‐changing market. If marketing within a company develops at a slower pace than the actual very fast market pace in which a company competes, an advantage is lost. It is ironic: we call it marketing, but it is ineffective in dealing with the market. Figure 1.2 illustrates this condition well.

Misalignment of Marketing and Finance

This classic blind spot often causes a disconnect. Marketers may focus solely on nonfinancial performance, such as increasing brand awareness, forming specific perceptions, and communicating value propositions. These metrics may not hold significance for financial professionals, as they struggle to see the actual value that marketing is trying to achieve.

Financial executives may ask how much the return from an allocated marketing budget is and when it occurs. This question can be difficult for marketing people to answer. It is especially tough if the marketer's mindset doesn't refer to the concept of return, which most financial people always refer to.

A Disharmonious Marketing and Sales Relationship

When marketing and sales aren't fully aligned, it often looks like a “Tom and Jerry” cartoon show. Sometimes they might get along very well. At other points, they could be at odds with one another.

Weak Integration of Online and Offline Marketing

Many brick‐and‐mortar (offline) companies also have online platforms. Moreover, online companies are adopting offline practices by opening physical stores to strengthen their existence. However, some online companies that do their business purely online can still compete well. If that is the case, what about offline companies that only stay offline? If an offline company decides to remain offline forever, then perhaps soon, they would be off, too. Therefore, we must pay attention, for example, not only to showrooming but also to webrooming.

Overlooking Human Capital

This blind spot may start at the beginning of the recruitment process in a company. It doesn't serve to recruit people whose only purpose is to do limited work as ordered without any initiative. Strong companies need people who have a strong passion and love their work. These candidates should be creative and innovative and, at the same time, individuals who are productive and can make significant improvements.

We are at the end of the era of people who have an “employee mentality”—someone who only wants to work nine‐to‐five and only on weekdays, follows the job description rigidly, and doesn't want to work extra miles. Therefore, the HR team can no longer look for simple ordinary employees but rather replace them with talented and passionate people who show a calling for their duties and have similar characteristics to the company's character, values, and brand.

Lack of Humanity in Marketing

In the past, we occasionally heard that marketing was being misused by some irresponsible marketers solely for the company's benefit and not for customers' well‐being, let alone for broader social interests. In such a situation, the company considers marketing only as a tool for making profits. The company “persuades” customers to buy their products without paying sufficient attention to the employees' well‐being, the environment, and other relevant considerations.

Therefore, some of today's companies are trying to incorporate social elements into their business models in an effort to be more human. They may make corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts merely to be acceptable in the public's eyes and flash CSR as a tool to cover up misuses. Adopting fake CSR is not sustainable, and marketing practices should return to their noble values.

Entrepreneurial marketing solves for these blind spots. By integrating functions, it is able to better track macroeconomic developments and implement strategies that align with the company's overall goals. It helps departments stay connected and even communicate in a similar way. It resolves issues related to talent management and human capital, because it seeks players who are ready to work in a collaborative environment. Finally, it helps a company communicate its social role as a contributor to a community, society, and the planet.

In the pages that follow, we'll look closely at the shift from professional marketing to this new era of entrepreneurial marketing. We'll discuss the changing marketing landscape and how it affects competition, customers, and the company itself. We'll lay out how entrepreneurial capabilities and marketing strategies can be implemented in today's environment, and how an organization ideally should be organized to face the future.

In each chapter, we'll refer to the omnihouse model. It will serve as a guide on our journey toward a more enlightened take on entrepreneurial marketing. By the end, you'll have a better grasp of the potential that your own organization contains. Better yet, you'll know how to address pain points and be fully prepared to take a leading role in a changing world.

CHAPTER 2From Professional to Entrepreneurial Marketing: The Core Elements of the Omnihouse Model

In 2010, Instagram launched a photo‐sharing platform that focused on offering photo‐based social media networks. Two months later, it could boast of 1 million downloads.

At its core, Instagram is a fast‐moving platform that takes advantage of the latest trends by adding new features, including short‐lived content (stories) and short videos (reels). In a crowded social media platform market, the company has taken a leading position with a current focus on four elements: creator, video, shopping, and messaging. In 2022, Instagram's value stood at US$100 million, making the platform Facebook's highest‐performing investment with a return on investment more than 100 times.

What can be gleaned from the story of Instagram? Perhaps a good starting point lies in the chance to see that in very dynamic conditions, it's not enough to rely on an overly procedural approach to obtain the desired results. The business environment changes rapidly and companies that want to perform highly will be ready to pivot—often and swiftly. Instagram followed this strategy and on execution developed into a behemoth figure that dominates its industry.

A facile mindset tends to contradict the professional approach that so frequently prevails in the marketing segment. In the past, the marketing department might have set up a plan, outlined the steps to follow, and moved forward. This approach may have seemed appropriate at one time, especially before the internet and technologies took off and created an interconnected, fluid space.

In today's world, the professional method of marketing faces several key risks. First and perhaps foremost, it may not be ready to move with the changes in demand. It might not have the capability to keep up with an agile and changing market. When the tides turn, a marketing department that continues to march down the same path will likely fall short of its goals.

This contradiction in marketing—namely, the “professional” approach versus the entrepreneurial mindset that Instagram exemplified—is precisely what we'll look at in this chapter. Let's explore what's behind each of these marketing methods. In doing so, we'll see that there is value in each. At the same time, companies need to know which method (or combination of the two) is appropriate for their situation and how they can best be used to propel growth and expansion in the years to come.

Understanding Professional Marketing

When we use the term professional to describe marketing, it's often to refer to tendencies toward procedures and bureaucracy. In an established organization with clear‐cut responsibilities, we typically expect each team member to carry out a specific role within a particular function. In this scenario, executing cross‐functional activities can take several routes to gain approval.1 As such, it can be natural for departments, including marketing, to work in a mindset of “following the procedures.” There may be little crossover, and there might be few—or no—attempts to carry out multiple tasks simultaneously.

This approach comes with several notable benefits and drawbacks. Let's start by sifting through the positives that stem from the professional approach of marketing. Then we'll look at a few of the key downsides.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Professional Marketing

In the history of marketing, there is a long line of successful companies that have followed a professional mindset. The following describes some of the main perks that professional marketing brings to the table:

Understanding business models.

The professional team sees the value proposition of the product or brand. It can identify where the company's revenue stream is coming from, master the calculation of various costs incurred, and ensure smooth cash inflow. For example, Netflix developed an effective business model to accumulate 220 million paid subscribers in 2021 and generate US$7.7 billion in revenue in 2022.

2

Ability to manage resources.

The professional marketing approach determines which resources and capabilities are required. The objective is to ensure that there can be an exchange of value with customers.

Capacity to coordinate activities.

The professional team understands the interrelationships and interdependencies between the different functions of the company. It organizes procedures so that activities, when carried out, are well coordinated and synchronized with the set direction.

Ability to manage collaboration.

The professional team formalizes all forms of cooperating with clear terms and conditions. Tasks follow an established protocol and avoid overlapping or conflicting with other activities.

Knowing how to communicate.

The professional team can effectively and efficiently carry out internal and external marketing. They are able to generate strong awareness and appeal as an essential starting point for penetrating the market.

Ability to answer questions.

The professional team comprehends the product at a detailed level, including its features, benefits, the buying process, and how it is delivered. Marketers also know how to explain the use of their products so that they can be used optimally by customers.

Ability to provide customer support.

The professional team provides support services, including handling customer complaints, repeat purchases, cross‐ or upsell services, consulting, managing customer loyalty and advocacy, and maintaining a sustainable relationship.

In addition to these skill sets, there are additional advantages that surface when professional marketers have the right attitude. Following are some of these best practices:

Avoiding bias.

All thinking and decision‐making are free from personal biases such as political views, gender, and social and cultural background. All analysis is fact‐based. There isn't prejudice or a personal interest portrayed.

Respecting others.

Successful professional marketers appreciate coworkers' opinions, including those of superiors, peers, and subordinates, according to existing boundaries. They treat customers humanely and are aware that these individuals support the company's livelihood. They comply with company regulations, including established company values.

Demonstrating accountability.

The professional team is consistently responsible for all the thoughts, words, and actions they carry out according to the scope of the assignment given. They take ownership for the decisions made, along with their repercussions, both on individual and team levels.

Showing integrity.

Professional marketers fulfill their responsibilities correctly and adequately, upholding honesty internally among colleagues and externally with customers and business partners.

Focusing on the task.

Professional marketers demonstrate discipline in completing tasks according to a predetermined schedule. They use working hours for productive purposes and do not mix personal matters with business.

Although there are certainly significant advantages that result from a professional mindset, it's important for our balanced discussion to observe several common drawbacks:

Slow to change.

There can be a tendency to keep leaders and leadership styles in place, even as times change. If executives unfit for their roles remain in place, it can hinder the company's overall progress. It may also dampen company culture and the spirit of employees.

3

Grand planning.

Spending ample time laying out procedures and processes often leads to slow implementation. When the world around us changes quickly, it can be difficult to keep up.

Becoming stagnant.

Organizations that focus on procedures may not spot upcoming opportunities and risk not being ready to pivot when needed.

A nine‐to‐five attitude.

Professional marketers may perceive that their work in the company must take place during set hours. It can be challenging to ask employees to remain for extra hours outside of this time frame.

Inability to adjust priorities.

When following procedures and maintaining the bureaucratic status quo, it is often challenging for marketing teams to think and act outside of the box. Even if an opportunity is identified, they might be hesitant to change their priorities and move in a different direction. This hesitancy can put a company at risk of falling behind competitors who are shifting strategies and meeting market demand.

4

Being reactive.

Marketing teams might respond to changes they see over time and follow others instead of leading the way into new markets and segments.

The Entrepreneurial Approach

Now let's open our minds and consider a different mindset to marketing, one that perhaps aligns with Instagram's approach. Because the term entrepreneur has long been associated with start‐ups and disruptors, along with high successes (and potential for failure), it's worth starting out this section with a review of the definition. After looking at what it encompasses, we'll apply the term to marketing.

For decades, visionaries have leveraged opportunities, regardless of how small those opportunities might be. When moving forward, someone with an entrepreneurial spirit is fully aware of the risks they will face. At the same time, they have the courage and optimism to give their plans a trial run.

Those who apply an entrepreneurial approach know how to identify the gaps, dare to make decisions, face the consequences of their actions, and collaborate with multiple parties. From this explanation, there are at least three very prominent capabilities related to entrepreneurship, namely, the attitude and ability to see opportunities (opportunity seeker), a mindset that dares to take risks (risk‐taker), and the ability to cooperate with other parties (network collaborator). Let's look more closely at each one.

Opportunity Seeker

The opportunity seeker has the ability to adapt and view the positive side of a given situation. They don't dwell on a pessimistic point of view, which can divert a leader's focus from seeking opportunities.5

Risk‐Taker

Uncertainty surrounds new initiatives. The risk‐taker evaluates the circumstance at hand, the options available, and the potential for failure. A decision is then made based on those calculated risks.

Network Collaborator

The network collaborator recognizes they are unable to operate entirely on their own. As such, they build an extensive network and collaborate with other experts who can contribute to areas in which the entrepreneur cannot.
