The term "marketing" n va was first used in 1902 on the lecture hall of Michigan State University in the US to gh tn In 1910, all General Universities An important case in the United States began p ie teaching Marketing, and for nearly half a century, Marketing was taught only in English-speaking countries, but only after the world economic crisis (1929 - oa nl w 1932) and especially after the Second World War (1941-1945), marketing activities have made great leaps, strongly developed to really become a popular d an lu scientific field like today nf va In the 50s and 60s Marketing was spread to Western Europe and Japan, to oi lm ul Eastern European countries in the 60s and 70s, to Vietnam in the 80s of the twentieth century The internationalization process of Marketing has grown very z at nh fast Today, almost all countries in America, Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa have taught and applied Marketing in production and business effectively z @ As Philip Kotler explains in his book Marketing Management: l gm “Marketing is an administrative and social process through which individuals and groups obtain what they need and desire by the generation, m co offering and exchange of valuable products with their equals” an Lu Marketing research, conducted for the purpose of new product ac th n va development or product improvement, is often concerned with identifying the si consumer's unmet needs Customer needs are central to market segmentation which is concerned with dividing markets into distinct groups of buyers on the basis of "distinct needs, characteristics, or behaviors who might require separate products or marketing mixes." Needs-based segmentation (also known as benefit segmentation) "places the customers' desires at the forefront of how a company designs and markets products or services." Although needs-based segmentation is difficult to in practice, it has been proved to be one of the most effective lu ways to segment a market In addition, a great deal of advertising and promotion an is designed to show how a given product's benefits meet the customer's needs, n va wants or expectations in a unique way gh tn to The marketing mix (also known as the Ps) is a foundation model It has been defined as the "set of marketing tools that the firm uses to pursue its ie p marketing objectives in the target market" Therefore, it refers to four broad nl w levels of marketing decision, namely: product, price, promotion, and place d oa Marketing practice has been occurring for millennia, but marketing theory an lu emerged in the early twentieth century The contemporary marketing mix, or the nf va Ps, which has become the dominant framework for marketing management oi lm ul decisions, was first published in 1960 In services marketing, an extended marketing mix is used, typically comprising Ps, made up of the original Ps z at nh extended by process, people, and physical evidence Occasionally service marketers will refer to Ps, comprising these Ps plus performance gm @ The importance of Marketing mix z 1.2 1.2.1 The necessity of developing marketing MIX l m co  It helps in a clean mix creation an Lu Your marketing mix should have all the P’s compatible with each other The price should be compatible with the placement of the product The product n va ac th si should be compatible with the promotions In general, all the P’s are intrinsically linked to each other As a result, when you are making a marketing mix, it becomes a chain of strong bonds And these bonds then guide you forward in making the chain longer Whenever you are considering adding a new feature or changing existing things, you have to look at the overall picture, which helps in creating a clean marketing mix for the product lu  Marketing mix helps in New product development an n va While designing an existing product, there are any number of ideas which tn to can come up for a related product that can be designed by the company The pricing, place and promotions might be different for such a product Nonetheless, gh p ie it can be classified as a new product and hence while designing the marketing w mix, the company can come up with good ideas for NPD as well d oa nl  Marketing mix helps increase the product portfolio an lu Whenever you want to increase the product depth or product line and length, you have to make minor changes to the product In essence, you are va ul nf making minor changes in the marketing mix itself You are making changes to oi lm the product features, to its pricing and possible to its promotions As a result, by enlarged product portfolio z at nh altering the marketing mix and certain features within it, you can end up with an z  It is a guide to improve a business gm @ Physical evidence was an important P in the service marketing mix If a l m co restaurant or an interior design business realises its important, then naturally they can act on it and improve the physical evidence of their business thereby an Lu bringing in more business n va ac th si The importance of marketing mix is evident in more then a single P People and process are important to the organization too and optimizing both can improve the overall working of the organization Hence, marketing mix is an excellent guide if someone wants to improve their business and is doing gap analysis  It helps in differentiation When you analyse the marketing mix of Competitors, there are many lu different ways that you can differentiate yourself from the competitor The an n va competitor might have poor promotions and by analysing them, you can create The competitor might have poor placement of products or he might have gh tn to better promotions of your own product p ie the wrong process or the wrong people in place All this can be improved upon oa nl

strikes va ul nf During recession or during a poor business environment, a company should be oi lm ready to respond At such times, the company needs to be dynamic in nature z at nh Such a company needs to understand its product, processes, people, promotions and all other P’s better If it understands them, it will respon d with a better z agility @ gm Thus, there are many ways that marketing

satisfy the needs of customers an Lu n va ac th 64 si Especially the transport vehicle team, the company should invest more or can hire other transport company vehicles to care more goods In terms of technology application, the practical need of applying information technology in international forwarding activities, providing traceability features as an indispensable service feature, increased visibility of supply chain Therefore, the company needs to apply FMS / TMS solution (freight forwarding management system) The application of information lu technology also contributes to the service provider's ability to provide services an and the ability to retrieve goods The company should also research to apply high n va technology to logistics services, such as Block chain technology into the e- to gh tn Delivery Order and e-Bill of Ladings, CargowiseOne into logistics activities,ect Thereby facilitating the development and improvement of service quality, ie p reducing logistics costs Request oa nl w 3.3 Recently, the state has issued quite a number of policies and laws to d an lu regulate logistics activities In addition to the 2005 Commercial Law, which nf va provides articles to

has not yet created a cross-link between ministries to create favorable conditions for this activity to develop Most strategies and master plans on l developing logistics services of the government stop at strategic level, long-term m co vision, there is no detailed plan for this type of service Some localities and big an Lu cities of the country - where there are many potentials for developing logistics ac th 65 n va services such as Hai Phong, Hanoi, Vung Tau or Ho Chi Minh City, still have si infrastructure planning and logistics services not really reasonable and scientific Specifically, we have planned the location, scale of ports, logistics centers, ect but we have not mentioned the planning of the road system or transport infrastructure connecting to these areas Even in the southern region, where the economy has been highly developed in the past 10 years, due to limitations in planning and lack of investment, there has been a situation of cargo congestion at major ports of entry and exit All these shortcomings have contributed to the lu increase in logistics costs of enterprises in general and logistics services an businesses in particular va n Therefore, Governments and Ministries should Complete the legal to gh tn framework for e-commerce and logistics with specific details such as freight invoices and regulations on traffic management; Create conditions to encourage ie p enterprises to apply and develop automated technology, develop "green" nl w facilities suitable to EC-logistics; There are specific policies and guidelines for d oa the operation of

Therefore, the delivery service in our country is growing Since its establishment, DHB has also achieved achievements on the way lu of development, creating a position in the forwarding industry However, when an the world and domestic economies are in crisis, the company also needs to have n va appropriate strategies, mitigate the impacts and create momentum for growth to gh tn when the
