1.1 Definition of Marketing
“Marketing is the process of planning & executing the conception, pricing, promotion & distribution
of ideals, goods & service to create exchanges that satisfy individual & organization goals” (AMA,
n.d.)
1.2 Concepts of Marketing
According to the marketing concept, accomplishing organisational goals is dependent on identifying the requirements and desires of target markets and providing the needed satisfactions better than competitors Customer attention and value are the roads to sales and profitability, according to the marketing concept The marketing notion is a customer-centered sense-and-respond mindset, as opposed to a product-centered make-and-sell mentality It is your responsibility to locate the perfect products for your customers, not the right customers for your product (Kotler & Armstrong, 2017) Marketing orientation => Marketing concept and it’s focus on:
- Customer orientation: Simply put, a business method or plan whereby a company resolves a customer's issue at the outset In essence, client requirements and wants are prioritized over business needs
- Coordination of market led activities: Market-oriented businesses have well-organized internal teams and a culture that is solely centered on the needs of its clients.It goes without saying that
if the clients do not desire the newest breakthroughs and technologies, they will likewise be ignored
- Profit orientation: Setting product prices that ensure you will benefit from every sale is part of a profit-oriented pricing strategy Although it may seem simple, some businesses develop price strategies to either prevent new competitors from entering the market or to enhance market share

Figure 1 An Expanded Model of the Marketing Process
2.3 Explaining these steps in process
Step 1: Market research
Businesses must maintain market share: To maintain market share, THP Group must first analyse the market and understand what customers want before launching the product The best technique to learn what customers want is to conduct surveys; a brief survey of approximately
5 minutes is sufficient for the corporation to synthesise and build products
For example, when zero degrees green tea was merely regular lemon-flavored green tea, the product later added a low-sugar, low-calorie variety to meet today's consumers' health needs
Step 2: Market segment, market target and difference
Green tea zero degrees has 2 main market segments and is also the target market of THP Group:
1 Green tea zero degrees honey, Green tea zero degrees lemon flavor - most of the customers are teenagers who like to drink sugary and natural-based beverages Born early, Green Tea without degrees still maintains its pioneering position in this segment
2 Green tea zero degrees unsweetened – reaching mostly middle-aged customers; customers need to lose weight, diet; Customers who want to reduce their risk of diabetes but want to

Price is the amount of money customers must pay to obtain the product (Kotler & Armstrong,
2017) Zero Degree Green Tea has 2 pricing methods:
o Pricing based on the goal of leading in terms of quality: The selling price of green tea today is still higher than that of similar products However, with the increasing standard
of living, consumers still easily accept high prices but ensure quality
o Customer Perceived Value Pricing: The price a customer accepts depends on the customer's perceived value for the product, and the seller's acceptance Vietnamese consumers often think that "you get what you pay for", high price means good quality

& Armstrong, 2017)
