Marketing is a very interesting
science. Marketing combines math, economy and creativity. Creative plays the main role in
effective marketing planning, strategies, campaigns. If the producers combine
creativity with market knowledge, they create a cunning plan that increases the
efficiency and profitability of production.
The main tricky marketing techniques are based on:
- the uniqueness of the product and its market
positioning;
- understanding customer needs and
creating such events that meet their needs;
- relevance;
- flexible approach to sales and
setting prices for the products;
- a brutal fight among the
competitors etc.
Marketing shows its tricks in different spheres of
market relations, activities:

in
advertising campaigns;
3.
in the
promotion of products;
4.
in
communications with consumers and other actors in the market, etc.
In order to develop clever tricky
techniques marketing experts exploring consumers' businesses, analyze their
behavior, needs, demand and desire for a long time. Marketing experts choose
the best options that help attract customers on the basis of this research, all
necessary information during the discussion (brainstorming). Further, the projects implemented and actively
used in practice. But such measures are not immediately perceived by consumers,
so they are actively in practice by trial and error. Producers can gain an
understanding of the true picture of their future plans and based on the
experience to proceed more confidently.
Well-known company actively put the
different marketing tricks in practice. They do it, because they already know
their customers. New to the market is not actively to agree to take the risk.
But still there are exceptions to the rule, when a new firm enters the market
with an already well thought-out tricks and gaining leadership.
It is necessary to consider the examples
for better understanding how producers cunning on the markets. The company
"Tefal" was originally positioned its
products as such, which you can use for preparing food without adding oil. But
that didn't attract the attention of buyers. The main advantage they saw that cookware
manufacturer easy to clean, because it does not stick food. So the producer
re-positioned its advertising appeal and got even more recognition and
popularity among consumers. It is the adjustment to the needs of customers makes
the company successful [1].
Another example (but
company-beginner) is "Red Bull". The producer brought to market a new
energy drink, which had many competitors. Then he took the risk that
artificially inflated the price twice in comparison with competitors, reduced
the amount of container and began to place banks in stores in different
departments (not only in the department of drinks) [4]. Also the boxes with the drink "Red
Bull" were distributed free to students on College’s campuses. Students
are the target audience of the product. This activity became the basis of
popularity because the producer found insight to his clients who appreciate
drive, adrenaline, energy and layers. "Red Bull" became very popular
on the student’s party [2].
Another example of the marketing tricks.
Marketing managers play with clothing sizes in shops with women's products. For
example, jeans are size 30, and marketers suggest to sellers 30 to make, for
example, 29. On one of the forums the owner of the store noticed that changing
the size of the clothes helps to increase significantly [3].
Purchases are dependent on various
factors that producers need to explore. But for some of them it is not a
secret. By using the marketing tricks producers manipulate with the views of
consumers, forced to buy more of their products. For example, producers of
chewing gum show in their advertising using two gums; producers of shampoos
suggest to wash hair twice, so customers use more products and therefore more
buy.
Thus, producers that use creative
marketing tricks are more popular among consumers. They establish strong
communication that is the foundation of effective market activities. It is
important that complexities in moderation. No need to annoy the customers
because at such way the marketing techniques thus lose their value.
