Introduction to Resource Management


(January 26, 2019)

 Resource Management
o Efficient and effective deployment and allocation of an organization’s resources
when and where they are needed
o Resources may include
 Physical resources
 Production resources (labor, land)
 Financial resources (money, stocks, shares, any amount of currency, financial
instruments used to fund)
 Human skills
 Information technology
 Time
 Nature of Business and Organizations
o Forms of business organizations
 Profit
 Formed specifically to earn income for owners

 Non-profit
 Characteristics
o Mission is to undertake activities whose goal is not primarily
for profit, but to benefit the public
o Property and income is not distributed to the owners/officers
but are recycled back into the nonprofit
 Examples
o Homeowners’ associations
o Churches
o Educational organizations
o Hospitals and medical research organizations
o Ateneo de Manila University
 The core is not to make money; it is to educate
o Basic Forms of Business Organizations
 Sole proprietorship
 Owned by one person, usually a small business entity
 Pro: Easiest to set up
 Con: Unlimited liability (everything that happens, they are
interchangeable; no corporate barrier; if a company sues me, I’m
being sued for it)
 Partnership
 Owned by two or more persons who contribute resources into the
business entity
 Profits are divided amongst themselves (no other stakeholders to
think about)
 Two types
o General partnerships: All partners have unlimited liability

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
o Limited partnerships: Personal assets of owners are safe
from creditors
 Examples: Proctor & Gamble, Google
 Corporation
 Has a separate legal entity from its owners
 Ownership is represented by shares of stock
 Pro: Limited liability
 Con: Limited involvement in company’s operations
o Certain facets and pockets in the organization which you
cannot reach out
 Framework 1: PESTEL (Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Environmental, Legal)
o To analyze the external industry
o Example: Setting up shop akin to UNIQLO
o Identified issues that
 Are outside your organization
 Will have some level of impact on it
o Classification less important than identification
o Must be used regularly to maximize its benefit in identifying trends in the workplace
o Link to “OT” in SWOT; must be used in conjunction with other strategic frameworks
o Watchouts: Oversimplification and analysis paralysis (too fixated on the classification
when it should be the issues being missed)
o Political
 Government stability
 Employment and operational laws
 Consumer protection
 Trade restrictions or reform
 Tax regulations
 Corruption levels
 Bureaucracy
 Neighbor stability
o Economic: impact lending rates (e.g., general contractor wanting to rent a crane and
having to take note of interest rates)
 Inflation
 Finance and credit
 Interest rates
 Exchange rates
 Cost of living
 GDP and GNP
 Globalization (Could also be social)
o Social: Understanding your consumer and the factors involved
 Age distribution
 Population growth rate
 Employment levels
 Income statistics
 Education and career trends
 Attitudes and beliefs
 Social mobility
 Demographics
 Ethics and religion
 Historical issues
 Cultural and social conventions

 Factors
 Supplier switching costs relative to firm switching costs
 Uniqueness of their product or service
 Impact of input on cost and differentiation
 Number and presence of substitute supplies/suppliers
o Bargaining power of buyers (customers)

 Customer loyalty
 Framework 3: SWOT
o Difference: First two frameworks are interchangeable; SWOT has a definite internal
side and a definite external side
o Match strengths and opportunities

 Organizational capability is the ability to manage resources effectively in
order to an advantage over competitors
 Resource-based view
o Relies on
 Tangible (physical/touchable land, buildings, equipment, capital, stock
 But are often easily acquired by competitors
 Intangible – no physical presence: trademark, intellectual property,
copyright, licenses, brand reputation
 Usually are more unique or will stay with the company longer
o Must be
 Heterogeneous – resources or amount/mix of resources differ across
companies
 Immobile – resources do not easily or often transfer to other companies, so
replication of strategies take a long time
o Have a VRIO attributes to become VRIO resources that provide Competitive
advantage
 Valuable
 Help organizations increase the value to customers
 Increase differentiation or decrease costs of production
 Rare
 Can only be acquired by one or few companies
 Inimitable

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
 Time – lead time, punctuality
 Flexibility – mix, volume
 Stock availability
 Ecological soundness – environmental impact
 Human Resources
o Organizational Structures

 Amounts provided directly by equity
investors (paid-in-capital)
 Amounts retained from earnings (retained
earnings)
 Fundamental Accounting Equation:
 Assets = Liabilities + OE
o LHS = RHS
o Resources = obligation ns to creditors or claims on
resources +residual claim
o Resources = financed by creditors + financed by owners
 Net Assets = Owners’ Equity

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
 Every accounting transactions has an equal effect on both sides of
equation
 E.g. Purchase 20,000 car with cash
o Increased asset, decreased asset

 Shows changes in OE or Retained Earnings from operations of
business
 Amount added to RE is called income
 Revenues-Expenses = Net income
o Sales revenue = amount for product sold to customers during
accounting period

Introduction to Marketing
 What is marketing?
o A process by which companies create value for customers and build strong
customer relationships to capture value from customers in return
o Goals
 Attract new customers by promising super value
 Retain and grow existing base by delivering satisfaction

company promises to deliver customers to satisfy their
needs; why buy your brand rather than a competitors?
 Customer-relevant: explains how your product
solves customers’ problems or improves their
situation
 Quantified value: delivers specific benefit/s
 Uniquely differentiated: tells the ideal customer
why they should buy from you and not from the
competition
 Example: Uber “tap the app, get a ride”, iPhone

 Types:
 Closed-ended: include all possible answers, and subjects make
choices among them
o E.g. multiple choice and scale
o Provide answers that are easier to interpret and tabulate
 Open-ended: allow respondents to answer in their own words

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
 Measures a consumer’s AIO (activities, interests, opinions) to capture
information about a person’s pattern of acting and interacting in the
environment
 Personality and self-concept: the unique psychological characteristics that
lead to consistent and lasting response to the consumer’s environment
 Match brand personality to the target market
o Psychosocial
 Motivation: a need that is sufficiently pressing enough to direct the person
to seek satisfaction
 Perception: the process by which people select, organize, and interpret
information to form a meaningful picture of the world from three perceptual
processes
3 perceptual processes:
 Selective attention is the tendency for people to screen out most of
the information to which they are exposed
 Selective distortion is the tendency for people to interpret
information in a way that will support what they already believe (e.g.
anti-vaxxers, global warming)
 Selective retention is the tendency to remember good points made
about a brand they favor and forget good points about competing
brands
 Learning
 Beliefs and attitudes
 Customer-Driven Marketing Strategy: Creating a Value
o Market segmentation – requires dividing market into a smaller segments with
distinct needs, characteristics, or behavior that might require separate marketing
strategies or mixes
o 4 ways to segment
 Geographic – divides the market into different geographical units such as
nations, regions, states, cities, or neighborhoods
 Demographic – divides the market into groups based on variables such as
age, gender, family size, family cycle, income, occupation, education,
religion, race, generation, and nationality
 Age and Life-Cycle Stage – process of offering different products or
using different marketing approaches for different age and life-cycle
groups
o E.g. Jell-O to kids as a fun snack, to adults as a guilt-free
indulges
o Must be careful of stereotypes – age ≠ life stage
 Gender Segmentation divides the market based on sex (male or
female)
 Income segmentation divides the market into affluent, middle-
income, or low-income consumers
 Psychographic – divides buyers into different groups based on social class,
lifestyle, or personality traits
 Behavioral – divides buyers into groups based on their knowledge, attitudes,
uses, or responses to a product
 Occasions
 Benefits sought
 User status – non, ex, potential, first-time, regular uses
 Loyalty status

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
o Multiple Segmentation Bases
 Multiple segmentation is used to identify smaller, better-defined target
groups
 PRIZM NE classifies every American household into 66 unique
segments
o Requirements for effective segmentation
 Measurable
 Accessible – be able to talk to these people
 Substantial – have enough people for you to sell your things
 Differentiable – talk to different markets differently
 Actionable – be able to sell to these people
 Selecting Target market Segments
o Target market consists of a set of buyers who share common needs or characteristics
that the company decides to serve
o Undifferentiated marketing targets the whole market with one offer
 Mass marketing
 Focuses on common needs rather than what’s different
o Differentiated marketing targets several different market segments and designs
separate offers for each
 Goal is to achieve higher sales and stronger position
 More expensive than undifferentiated marketing
o Niche marketing targets a small share of a large market
 Limited company resources
 Leverages on greater knowledge of the market
 More effective and efficient
o Micromarketing is the practice of tailoring products and marketing programs to suit
the tastes of specific individuals and locations
 Local marketing involves tailoring products and marketing programs to the
needs and preferences of individual customers
 Individual marketing involves tailoring brands and promotion to the needs
and want of local customer groups (Cities/Neighborhoods/Stores)
 E.g. Katipunan NBS would have more textbooks
 Socially Responsible Target Marketing
o Benefit customers with specific needs
o Concern for vulnerable segments (e.g. children)
o Concern is not who, but how and for what
 Controversies arise when marketers attempt to profit at the expense of
targeted segments – when they unfairly target vulnerable segments or target
them with questionable products or tactics
 Differentiation and Positioning
o Product position is the way the product is defined by consumers on important
attributes – the place the product occupies in occupies in consumers’ minds relative
to competing products
 Perceptions
 Impressions
 Feelings
o Competitive advantage is an advantage over competitors gained by offering
consumers greater value, either through lower prices or by providing more benefits
that justify higher prices
 Product differentiation
 Service differentiation

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
 People differentiation
 Image differentiation
 Selecting an overall Positioning Strategy
o Value proposition is the full mix of benefits upon which a brand is positioned
 Communication and Delivering the Chosen Position
o Designing the marketing mix involves working out the tactical details of the chosen
positioning strategy

Integrated Marketing Pro


 What is a Product
o Product is anything that can be offered in a market for attention, acquisition, use or,
or consumption that might satisfy want or need
o Service is a product that consists of activities, benefits, or satisfaction that is
essentially intangible and does not result in the ownership of anything
o Experience represent what buying the product or service will do for the customers
  Companies now focus on creating and managing customer experiences
with their brands or company
 Levels of Products and Services
o Core customer value – what is a customer really buying?
o Actual product – brand name, feature, quality level, design, packaging
o Augmented product – delivery and credit, product support, warranty, after-sale
service
 Consumer Products – for personal consumption
o Classified according to
 Convenience products – fast to buy (e.g. newspapers, candy, fast food)
 Shopping products – need more time and research (e.g. furniture, cars,
appliances)
 Specialty product – more niche, not always a need/are different (e.g.
medical services, designer clothes, higher-end electronics)
 Unsought products – people don’t wanna buy these (e.g. life insurance,
funeral services, blood donations)
 Types of Marketing stuff
o Organization Marketing (e.g. IBM around the city)
o Person marketing consists of activities undertaken to create, maintain, or change
attitudes and behavior of target consumers toward particular people
o Place marketing (e.g. I❤️NY)
o Social Marketing – promotes issues (e.g. anti-smoking)
 Individual Product and Service Decisions
o Product attributes – communicate and deliver the benefits
 Quality

 Government – hospitals, police and fire departments
 Not for profit – museums, churches, colleges
 Business orgs – airlines, banks, hotels, medical practices, telco industries
o Marketing Strategies for Service Firms

offer, delivery, and image of the service
 Offer can include distinctive features (e.g. 24/7 gyms)
 Deliver can include more able and reliable customer contact people,
environment, or process (e.g. online banking)
 Image can include symbols and branding (e.g. GEICO gecko)
 Managing service quality provides a competitive advantage by delivering
consistently higher quality than its competitors
 Service quality can be better defined by rate of return, and varies
depending on interactionism between employees and customers
 Service recovery is key
o New Products – how you get more market share or attract customers
 New product Development Strategy
 Two ways to obtain new product:
o Acquisition – refers to the buying of a whole company, a
patent, or a license to product someone else’s product
o New Product Development – refers to original products,
product improvements, product modifications, and new
brands developed from the firm’s own research and
development
o Major Stages in New Product Development
 Major Stages
 Idea generation
o Internal and external sources
o Crowdsourcing
 Idea screening
o R-W-W screening Framework
 Is it real?

projections to find out whether they satisfy the company’s
objectives and whether the product is financially attractive
 Product development
o Involves the creation and testing of physical versions by the
R&D or engineering depts
o Shows whether the product idea can be turned into a
workable product
o Prototypes must have functional features + convey
intended psychological characteristics
 Test marketing
o The stage at which the product and marketing program are
introduced into more realistic marketing settings
 Provides the marketer with experience in testing the
product and entire marketing program before full
introduction
 Commercialization
o When to launch, considering seasonality, economy, other
business priorities
o Where to launch – the entire country? Metro Manila only?
o Product Life-Cycle Strategies
 Product development: Sales are zero and investment costs amount
 Introduction: slow sales growth and profits are nonexistent because of high
expenses in distribution and promotion
 Growth: rapid market acceptance and increasing profits; economies of scale
 Maturity: slowdown in sales growth because product has achieved
acceptance by most potential buyers and profits level off or decline because
of cost to defend against competition
 Maturity Stage Modifying Strategies
o Marketing mix modifying – changing one or more
marketing mix elements
o Product modifying – changing characteristics such as
quality, features, style or packaging to attract new users
and inspire more usage
o Market modifying – increase consumption by finding new
users and segments
 Decline: sales fall off and profits drop
 Maintain the product – breathe new life into it, e.g. Old Spice,
Converse
 Harvest the product – reduce various costs, hoping sales will hold up
 Drop the product – sell to other firm or liquidate at salvage value
o Maturity Stage Modifying Strategies
 Marketing mix modifying – changing one or more marketing mix elements

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
 Four factors
 Differentiation – how is it different from the others
 Knowledge – people has to know what it is
 Relevance – has to make sense to customers
 Esteems – have you at high esteem
 Brand positioning
 Brand strategy decisions include
o Product attributes
o Product benefits
o Product attributes
o A brand is the company’s promise to deliver a specific set of
features, benefits, services, and experiences, consistently to
buyers
 Brand Name Selection
o Suggest benefits and qualities
o Easy to pronounce and remember
o Distinctive
o Extendable
o Translatable for the global economy
o Legally protectable
 Brand sponsorship
o Manufacturer’s brand (Silk)
o Private brand (Trader Joe’s, SM brands as a low-cost
alternative )
o License brad (Disney)
o CO-brand (Tim Hortons-Cold Stone)
 Product Category
Product Category
Existing New
Brand Existing Line extension Brand
Name extension
New Multibrands New brands
 Price
o Def. the amount of money charged for a product or service. It is the sum of al the
values that consumers give up in order to gain the benefits of having or using a
product or service
o Major Pricing Strategies
 Consumer perception value
 Price ceiling – no demand above this price
 Competition and other external factors
 Competitors’ strategies and prices
 Marketing strategy, objective, and mix
 Nature of the market and demand
 Product costs
 Price floor – no profits below this price; dictated by product cost
o Customer Value-Based Pricing
 Value-based pricing uses the buyers’ perceptions of value, not the sellers’
cost, as the key to pricing
 Price is considered before the marketing program is set
 Good value ≠ Low price
 Types of value-based pricing

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
 Good-value pricing: offers the right combination of quality and good
service at a fair price
o Everyday low pricing (EDLP) charging a constant everyday
low price with few or no temporary price discounts (e.g.
Super 8, Daiso, Walmart)
o High-low pricing charging higher prices on an everyday
basis but running frequent promotions to lower prices
temporarily on selected items (e.g. SM Sales)
 Value-added pricing attaches value-added features and services to
differentiate offers, support higher prices, and build pricing power
(e.g. IMAX)
 Cost-based pricing setting prices based on the costs for producing,
distributing, and selling the product plus a fair rate of return for effort
and risk
o Cost-based pricing adds a standard markup to the cost of the
product
o Fixed cost (overhead) are the costs that do not vary with
production or sales level
 Rent
 Heat
 Interest
 Executive salaries
o Variable costs are the costs that vary with the level of
production
 Packaging
 Raw materials
 Direct labor costs
 Break-Even Analysis and Target Profit Pricing
 Break-even pricing is the price at which total costs are equal to total
revenue and there is no profit
o Break even points in units = fixed costs/(sales price per unit-
variable cost per unit)
o Break even point = (sales price per unit)(break even point in
units)
 Target return pricing is the price at which the firm will break even or
make the profit it’s seeking
o Competition-based pricing
 Setting prices based on competitors’ strategies, costs, prices, and market
offerings
 Consumers will base their judgements of a product’s value on the prices that
competitors charge for similar products
 Considerations:
 Competition
o Pure competition – many buyers and sellers trading in a
uniform commodity, such as wheat, copper, or financial
securities
o Monopolistic competition – market consists of many buyers
and sellers who trade over a range of prices rather than a
single price
o Oligopolistic competition – few sellers who are highly
sensitive to each other’s pricing and marketing strategies

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
o Pure monopoly – the market consists of one seller
 Price elasticity
o The demand curve shows the number of units the market will
buy in a given period at different prices
 Normally, demand and prices are inversely
proportional: higher price = lower demand
o For prestige (luxury) goods, higher price can equal higher
demand when consumers perceive higher prices as higher
quality
 Place
o Types of stores
 Specialty stores – specific types (e.g. healthy stuff)
 Department stores – arrange products across different categories
 Supermarkets – generally groceries, etc.
 Convenience stores – 24 hr running, more expensive
 Sari-sari stores – localized, #1 trade channel, can’t buy in bulk
 Service retailer – more service-oriented (e.g. car shops)
 Non-Retail Channels
 Direct reselling (e.g. Avon ladies)
 Online Website/Mobile App
o Availability/Accessibility as a branding tool
 More ways customer to reach you, higher sales
 Promotions
o The Promotion Mix/Marketing Communications Mix
 is the specific blend of advertising, sales promotion, public relations,
personal selling, and direct marketing tools that the company uses to
persuasively communicate customer value and build customer relationships
o Advertising
 Any paid form of non-personal presentation and promotion of ideas, goods,
or services by an identified sponsor
 Includes TV, radio, print, digital, outdoor, merchandising, and other
form
 An advertising objective is specific communication to be tasked to be
accomplished with specific target audience during a specific time
o Setting advertising objectives
 Informative advertising: used when introducing a new product category to
build primary demand (i.e. we have this feature and that)
 Persuasive advertising: important with increased competition to build
selective demand (i.e. we’re better because of this feature)
 Reminder advertising: important with mature products to help maintain
customer relationships and keep customers thinking about the product
o Developing Advertising Strategy
 Advertising strategy is the strategy by which the company accomplishes its
advertising objectives and consists of:
 Creating advertising message – ads need to break through the clutter
 Selecting advertising media
 How? Steps:
 Planning the message strategy
o The general message that will be communicated to
consumers (ex. McDonald’s milkshakes are from real milk)

targeted individual consumers to both obtain an immediate response and
cultivate lasting relationships through use of direct mail, telephone, direct-
response television, email, the Internet to communicate directly with specific
consumers
 Catalog, telemarketing, kiosks
 Sales promotion is the short-term incentive to encourage the purchase or
sale of a product or service now
o Integrated Marketing Communications

DEMAND ANALYSIS
(March 30, 2019)

 Research done to estimate customer demand for a marketing offering. It aids in forecasting
your sales and revenues, and the resources necessary
 Simply put: How do you compute for the number of units you can really sell, so you can
plan accordingly for it?
 Factors in determining your demand:
o Basic demographics statistics—age, gender
o Geographic considerations
o Industry size
o Primary market research
 Willingness to buy
 Willingness to pay
 At what price point
o Take-up rate
o Seasonality – swimwear launched in summer, not winter
o Competitive landscape – how are your competitors doing
o *Consider industry or demographics growth for when you plan future sales

ACCOUNTING
 Financial Resources
o Ability of a business to finance its chosen strategy
o Assess existing funds and ability to raise new funds in order to finance its objectives
o Funding: own revenues and outside financing (crowdfunding, equity investors, bank
loans, government grants)
 Accounting

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
o A system that provides information on the ff in order make decisions
 Amounts of resources
 How resources were financed
 Results achieved by using resources
o Process of
 Identifying
 Measuring
 Communicating
o For either
 Parties inside or outside of organization
 Profit and nonprofit organizations
 11 Basic Concepts MEG-CD-CAR-MCM
o Money measurement
 Accounting records are kept in monetary terms, not physical units, at value
at the time transactions (which can be recorded in terms so money) are
recorded
 You record the monetary value of two cows, not “two cows”
specifically
 Limitations: Can’t be valued, can’t be recorded; e.g. president’s
health, strikes
o Entity
 Assumes that business has distinct and separate entity from its owners.
Thus, for the purpose of accounting, business and its owners are to be treated
as two separate entities
 One entity may be part of a larger entity
 General Electric Company presents one set of financial statements
with parent company operations combined with all subsidiaries
around the world
o Going Concern
 Assumes that a business will continue to carry out its operations
indefinitely for a fairly long period of time) and would not be liquidated in
the near future
 Alternative assumptionz: liquidation/bankruptcy
o Cost
 All assets are recorded in the book of accounts at their cost price, which
includes cost of acquisition, transportation, installation, and making the
asset ready for use (even the interest)
 Assets:
 Economic resources
 Cash or something that helps generate cash (e.g. land, buildings)
o Dual Aspect
 Every transaction has a dual or two-fold effect on various accounts and
should therefore be recorded a two places
 Assets = economic resources
 Equities = claims against assets
 Liabilities = claims of creditors
 Owners’ equity (shareholders’ or stockholders’ equity for a
corporation)
 Dual impact:
 Results in maintenance of fundamental accounting equation:
ASSETS = LIABILITIES + OE

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
o You bought cows for P20,000 in cash so
 Cows 20,000+
Cash 20,000 -
 Double-entry system
o Accounting Period
 Refers to the span of time at the end of which the financial statements of
an enterprise are prepared to know whether it has earned profits or incurred
losses during that period and what exactly is the position of its assets and
liabilities, at the end of that period
 Accounting period: specified arbitrary interval of time
 Net income for life of company = money in-money out
 Accounting year = fiscal year or calendar year
o Conservatism
 Business transactions should be recorded in such a manner that profits are
not overstated (wag mag over-assume). All anticipated losses should be
accounted for but all unrealized gains should be ignored
 “…prudent reporting based on healthy skepticism…builds
confidence in the results…”
 Preference for understatement rather than overstatement of assets
and earnings (and owners’ equity)
o If two estimates are equally likely, use the one that results in
smaller assets and earnings
o Realization
 Revenue for a business transaction can only be recognized once the goods
or services associated with it have been delivered or rendered,
respectively.
 Indicates amount of revenue that should be recognized.
Conservatism concept indicates when revenue should be recognized
 Recognize as revenue: Amount that is reasonably certain to be
realized
 Realized = cash received
 *unearned revenues
o Matching
 Firms must recognize, in the income statement, their revenues and their
related expenses in the same accounting period
 When an event affects both revenues and expenses, the effect
should be recognized in the same accounting period
o First determine revenues for period
o Then expense matching items of cost
 Examples
o Commission
o Wages and bonuses
 *wages payable = may utang ka sa kanilang wage
o Consistency
 Accounting policies and practices should be uniform and consistent over
time so that results are comparable
 Once an accounting method is selected, use for all subsequent
events of same character
 Can change if there is sound reason to change
o Materiality

Notes by Ma. Victoria Danicita A. Leyble


Under the class of Ms. Albano
 Accounting should focus on material facts. An item is considered material if
the item is likely to influence the decision of a reasonably prudent investor or
creditor, and therefore should be shown in the financial statements
 Insignificant events/trivial matters may be regarded
 Full disclosure of all important info
 Overriding concern: would knowledge of event affect decisions of
users?
 Application of judgement and common sense
 Financial statements
o Used in making decisions
o Easily comprehensible
o Stock/resources and obligations at a point in time
 Balance sheet – “as of”
o Flow/activity over a period of time:
