The concept Marketing and Digital Marketing
Marketing is a comprehensive concept that entails the creation, communication, delivery, and exchange of valuable offerings for customers, clients, partners, and society The American Marketing Association (AMA) defines marketing as a set of activities and processes that emphasize the importance of delivering value This definition highlights that marketing goes beyond mere promotion, incorporating aspects such as product development, pricing strategies, distribution, and managing customer relationships.
Philip Kotler, widely regarded as the father of modern marketing, expands on this definition by emphasizing the importance of understanding and meeting consumer needs
Effective marketing revolves around fulfilling consumer needs and desires through a strategic exchange process (Kotler, 2003) This approach emphasizes the importance of businesses comprehensively understanding their target markets, customizing their products or services to address specific requirements, and building enduring relationships with customers.
Marketing is a comprehensive strategy that encompasses research, planning, execution, and analysis, going beyond mere sales promotion It is a dynamic process that adapts to changes in the market and consumer behavior, enabling businesses to effectively compete and succeed in their industries.

A HubSpot study (2020) found that businesses employing digital marketing strategies experience 2.8 times higher revenue growth expectations than those that do not Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) leveraging digital marketing are 3.3 times more likely to grow their workforce and expand their operations.

Analysis of Michael Porter's 5 Competitive Forces Model for ACC Group
The legal services sector in Vietnam is highly competitive, particularly in major cities like Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Da Nang, where the demand for legal assistance is significant ACC Law Firm encounters strong rivalry from established firms such as VILAF, LNT & Partners, and YKVN, which have developed robust brands and extensive networks with both domestic and international clients These large firms offer a wide range of services and possess substantial financial and human resources, enabling them to invest in technology and broaden their client reach To remain competitive, ACC must enhance the quality of its services in specialized areas like intellectual property, real estate, and foreign investment Additionally, ACC can capitalize on its advantages, such as flexibility in service delivery and rapid customer engagement through online platforms.
In 2022, ACC generated impressive revenue of 1,477 billion VND, primarily by emphasizing specialized services and fostering strong customer relationships To sustain this revenue level and drive future growth, ACC must confront and overcome competition from rivals with greater resources.
The legal services industry, despite its high barriers to entry, continues to see the emergence of new law firms founded by young, tech-savvy lawyers These firms attract clients by offering innovative services and lower costs, leveraging digital technology to provide online legal consultations that enhance accessibility and reduce expenses This trend poses a significant challenge to established firms like ACC, as clients increasingly favor fast and affordable services To remain competitive, ACC must prioritize continuous service innovation, technology updates, and the development of new customer access channels.
Building and maintaining a strong brand is crucial for ACC to safeguard its market position against new competitors By enhancing promotional efforts and fostering trust with current customers through timely and professional consulting services, ACC can effectively reduce the risk of losing market share to emerging companies.
In a law firm like ACC, "suppliers" refer to the essential resources needed for delivering legal services, encompassing lawyers, legal experts, support services like law office management software, legal databases, and information technology.
Lawyers and legal experts are crucial assets for ACC, and their demands for higher salaries or potential moves to competitors can significantly impact the firm's operating costs and service quality In 2021, ACC's expenses rose to 50.7 billion VND, largely due to investments in high-quality human resources aimed at enhancing service standards To alleviate the challenges posed by the bargaining power of suppliers, ACC must create an appealing work environment to retain talent while exploring cost-optimization strategies through technology implementation and improved operational efficiency.
Technology suppliers, including law office management software and legal databases, hold considerable bargaining power, which can lead to increased operating costs and diminished control over service quality for ACC To mitigate these challenges, ACC should explore diversifying its suppliers and negotiating more advantageous contract terms.
ACC serves a diverse clientele, including businesses, individuals, and foreign organizations, all of whom are increasingly empowered to demand high-quality services at competitive prices Amidst intense competition, customers have a plethora of options and can swiftly change service providers if their expectations regarding quality or pricing are not met For instance, in 2020, the economic challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic compelled ACC to lower prices in order to maintain customer loyalty.
To address the strong bargaining power of customers, ACC should prioritize delivering unique value by offering personalized legal consulting services tailored to individual client needs By developing flexible service packages and enhancing professional customer care, ACC can foster long-term relationships with clients and reduce the risk of customer attrition to competitors.
3.5.5 Threat of Substitute Products or Services
In the legal services sector, the emergence of online legal services, free legal advice platforms, and legal automation software poses a significant threat as substitutes These alternatives typically offer lower costs, appealing to clients with straightforward legal requirements who may be reluctant to invest in conventional legal services.
Online legal services like LegalZoom and Rocket Lawyer offer affordable access to legal documents and advice, posing a challenge to traditional law firms such as ACC Although they cannot fully substitute professional legal services, they significantly impact areas like contract drafting, business registration, and basic legal consultations.
To counter the competition posed by substitute services, ACC should prioritize delivering high-value legal services that offer in-depth, personalized advice beyond the capabilities of online platforms Additionally, ACC should explore the development of its own online legal services to cater to customers with straightforward needs and price sensitivity.
