Introduction au module
This course introduces students to the essential principles of marketing. They will learn the various steps of the marketing process in order to deliver a market offering that brings value to customers, while capturing value in return: analyzing the environment, formulating a marketing strategy, and implementing the strategy through the marketing mix. We will cover how to effectively segment consumers, target selected segments, and position an offering vis-à-vis the competition to offer a superior value proposition for those segments. The different elements of the marketing mix will then be treated in detail successively. The students will also learn how firms can use customer relationship management to sustain the value exchange over time.

Contribution à l'atteinte des ODD (Objets du Développement Durable)
ODD2 - End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture
We will discuss the use of a marketing strategy to create a separate category for “ugly veggies” that provides nutritional benefits for price-sensitive consumers.
ODD4 - Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all
To reflect on the mission of an organization, from which any marketing strategy should follow, we will take the example of IMT-BS: a public school that makes business education accessible to students regardless of their social status.

When covering price discrimination strategies, we will discuss associated ethical problems, such as the pink tax, by which feminine products tend to be priced higher than their masculine counterparts.
ODD9 - Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation
The students will consider a new challenge faced by an organization, either due to the rise of artificial intelligence or the push for sustainability initiatives, and they will propose a marketing plan to address it.

When covering price discrimination strategies, we will discuss initiatives to offer price discounts to low-income populations.
