Marketing Mix

Slide Content

The slide introduces the concept of the Marketing Mix, which is defined as a set of elements that need to be determined by a company to promote its brand or product effectively. This is commonly referred to as the 4 Ps of marketing. Each of the Ps—product, price, place, and promotion—represents a different aspect that marketers must consider. Product refers to the goods or services offered, price pertains to the strategy regarding cost, place indicates distribution locations or channels, and promotion encompasses the communication strategies used to reach customers.

Graphical Look

• The slide has a large, teal arrow-shaped banner at the top with the title "Marketing Mix" in white, bold font.
• There is a yellow rectangular box with a shadow that appears to be a sticky note positioned centrally on the slide.
• Inside the yellow box, there is a black text block with the definition of Marketing Mix.
• Four stylized human figures each associated with one of the 4 Ps are depicted below the text.
• The symbols are simple and represent the concepts of the 4 Ps: a box for product, a tag for price, a pin for place, and a megaphone for promotion.
• Each icon is accompanied by a label identifying the respective P of the Marketing Mix.
• The slide background is pale green, providing a contrasting backdrop to the yellow note and teal title banner.

The slide's overall look is vibrant and engaging, with clear visual hierarchy that draws attention to the title and central concept. The use of icons adds an interpretive layer to the text, making it easier to grasp the 4 Ps of the marketing mix.
