Marketing Mix cont’d… • All decisions about the four elements are made based upon the correct identification of the target market • PRODUCT: what products do we make and sell? • Features, brand name, packaging, service, warranty • Update or improve existing products • Extend the life of a product by finding new uses or new target markets (e.g. – V8Fusion – original V8 on the market for 75yrs)
