Consumers The ultimate user of a good or service.
Marketing Concept A management orientation that focuses on identifying and satisfying consumer needs to ensure the organization’s long term profitability (identify needs and supply products)

Utility the usefulness or benefit consumers receive from a product (form, time, place, possession)
Form Utility The benefit marketing provides by transforming raw materials into finished products, as when a dress manufacturer combines silk, thread, and zippers to create a bridesmaid’s gown.
Place Utility The benefit marketing provides by making products available where customers want them. The most sophisticated evening gown sewn in Melbourne is of little use to an Australian bridesmaid in Perth if it isn’t shipped to her in time.
Time Utility The benefit marketing provides by storing products until they are needed. Some women rent their wedding gowns instead of buying them and wearing them only once (they hope!).
Possession Utility The benefit marketing provides by allowing the consumer to own, use, and enjoy the product. The bridal store provides access to a range of styles and colors that would not be available to a woman outfitting a bridal party on her own.
