In its true essence, marketing is a simple concept encapsulated by various theories and ideas. Hundreds of thousands of books are out there about how to effectively engage people into listening to your message. Marketing after all, is a science about getting groups of people to believe you and buy whatever you’re selling. 

However, if you peel through the layers of concepts and theories, the very core of marketing is knowing who you should be talking to. Remember the 4Ps? Yes, the good ol’ marketing mix. Product, Price, Place, and Promotion. That is a concept that every marketer knows by heart; all that Ps for one important C—customer.

While the concept is not new, Its relevance still cuts through in the era of digital marketing. A Digital marketing agency in the Philippines or abroad still reverts to the 4Ps for any digital marketing decision.

 

The Marketing Mix and the Four Ps of it All

Neal Borden cemented his idea of the marketing mix in 1964 through his article, The Concept of The Marketing Mix. Borden was fascinated with the idea of influencing consumer behavior through controllable variables. During that time, it wasn’t the 4Ps yet. The variables identified included 3 of the 4 Ps, product, price, promotion, and distribution.

Marketing experts acknowledged the Borden Marketing Mix as an effective strategy for marketing success. Over time, the marketing mix evolved into more elements. One iteration of this is the now-famous 4Ps, proposed by Jerome McCarthy. McCarthy used the same variables as Borden’s; only in his version, he replaced “distribution” with “place.”

If you look at the marketing mix, you should understand that every aspect is to get customers, potential or current, to keep listening, believing, and trusting you and your product. It is a fundamental concept about the different strategies and tactics geared towards selling your products and services.
