There are a many companies especially those in the Consumer Package Goods (CPG)
market that adopt the theory of running their business centered around Consumer,
Shopper & Retailer needs. Their Marketing departments spend quality time looking for
"Growth Opportunities" in their categories by identifying relevant insights (both mindsets
and behaviors) on their target Consumers, Shoppers and retail partners. These Growth
Opportunities emerge from changes in market trends, segment dynamics changing and
also internal brand or operational business challenges.The Marketing team can then
prioritize these Growth Opportunities and begin to develop strategies to exploit the
opportunities that could include new or adapted products, services as well as changes to
the 7Ps.
Thus, for example, many new products will emerge from irrational processes and the
rational development process may be used (if at all) to screen out the worst non-runners.
The design of the advertising, and the packaging, will be the output of the creative minds
employed; which management will then screen, often by 'gut-reaction', to ensure that it is
reasonable.
For most of their time, marketing managers use intuition and experience to analyze and
handle the complex, and unique, situations being faced; without easy reference to theory.
This will often be 'flying by the seat of the pants', or 'gut-reaction'; where the overall
strategy, coupled with the knowledge of the customer which has been absorbed almost by
a process of osmosis, will determine the quality of the marketing employed. This, almost
instinctive management, is what is sometimes called 'coarse marketing'; to distinguish it
from the refined, aesthetically pleasing, form favored by the theorists.

Basic theory:

3. Implementation
1. [edit] Tactics and actions
A marketing strategy can serve as the foundation of a marketing plan. A marketing plan
contains a set of specific actions required to successfully implement a marketing strategy.
For example: "Use a low cost product to attract consumers. Once our organization, via
our low cost product, has established a relationship with consumers, our organization will
sell additional, higher-margin products and services that enhance the consumer's
interaction with the low-cost product or service."
A strategy consists of a well thought out series of tactics to make a marketing plan more
effective. Marketing strategies serve as the fundamental underpinning of marketing plans
designed to fill market needs and reach marketing objectives[5]. Plans and objectives are
generally tested for measurable results.
Marketing strategies are dynamic and interactive. They are partially planned and partially
unplanned. See strategy dynamics.
