overall capacity to satisfy his or her needs.The difference between total customer value and total customer cost of a marketing offer“profit to the customer.,Total customer value:The total of all of the product,services,personnel,and image values that a buyer receives from a marketing offer.,Total customer cost:The total of all the monetary,time,energy,and psychic costs associated with a marketing offer.,Business School of Nankai University,Text,More than 35 years ago,Peter Drunker insightfully observed that a companys first task is“to create customers.However,creating customers can be a difficult task.Todays customers face a vast array of product and brand choices,price,and suppliers.The company must answer a key question:How do customers make their choices?,The answer is that customers choose the marketing offer that gives them the most value.Customers are value-maximizers,within the bounds of search costs and limited knowledge,mobility,and income.They form expectations of
