What is It

Let’s be informed

Marketing is bringing the products to the customers’ knowledge and

attention. It is also successfully selling products to customers’ satisfaction and
pleasure. It is the process or technique of promoting, selling, and distributing a
product or service. It requires a thorough study of how a product should be
successfully marketed to bring about profits or gains.

Filipinos love to eat. This is why the food business is one of the most
lucrative businesses in the country. Producing and selling preserved or processed
food has a high success rate and can provide additional income for the family. Like
any product or service, however, a good marketing strategy and program can help
create awareness of the product or service and boost sales.

In this lesson, the factors that affect the saleability and marketability of a
product will be taken up. It will also discuss the ways by which your product can
be packaged so that it does not only protect the product but also helps increase its
marketability. The first that attracts a customer to a product while he or she is
shopping is the packaging.

Depending on the type of product, the packaging is usually plastic packs or

glass jars showing the product so customers can see what they are purchasing.

This lesson will also present the use of technology in advertising a product.

We market our products to be able to get prospective buyers.

Here are some tips to serve as your guide to succeed in this livelihood:

● Place-make sure that you are accessible to your market. If your place is not
easily accessible or difficult to find, offer free delivery for bulk orders or
charge a minimal delivery fee for smaller orders. You might also want to join
local trade fairs to bring your products closer to prospective buyers or
visitors.

● Quality Product – no amount of marketing will succeed if a product is of

poor quality. Before launching your product, conduct a product tasting
among friends, family members, and neighbors. Take note of their comments
and suggestions to improve quality. Try them out until you come up with the
best quality product.

● Efficient Worker/Helper- once the orders begin to come in, and you start to
get swamp, you will need to hire and train someone to help in production,
marketing, and delivery. You may lose customers if you are unable to deliver
or your product quality suffers just to keep up with volume orders.

● Capital –to operate even a small business, there should be sufficient capital
or money to buy the tools, equipment, and ingredients. Registration of
business and getting the necessary permits from the city government,
Bureau of Internal Revenue, and others would also require payment of fees.
Even the place of business or storage facility should be maintained and kept
clean and orderly. These would also require additional expense on your part.

● Management- A good manager is creative, decisive, and an excellent

planner. You should also know to relate with your buyers, suppliers, and
helpers.

Packaging

It is the enclosing of something in a container or covering.

Aside from clay pots and bottles, your finished products can be placed in
traditional baskets, sacks, or trays. Dried grass, palm leaves, bamboo, and paper
can also be used as packaging materials. As much as possible, plastic materials
should be avoided in packaging products.

Examples of packaging materials include plastic jars/containers, aluminum foil,

tetra packs, cellophane, boxes, and plastic bags. Metals, crystal jars, and steel cans
are also used in some preserved food. Vacuum packaging is also used for frozen
food processed meat and frozen food products.
Strategies for Marketing Preserved Food Products

Marketing strategies are the best way to sell your preserved food products.
The following are marketing strategies for selling preserved food products.

1. Print media. This refers to a

medium that disseminates printed matter/materials for the advertisement of
preserved food products like newspapers, magazines brochures flyers, and other
printed materials.

2.Product display. This is a way of promoting preserved food products in bazaars

and or exhibits.

Technology in Advertising Processed/Preserved Food Products

New Technology has prompted most businesses to engage in its use especially in
terms of fast-paced selling or promoting products. As the computer has become a
tool for every business and home, most entrepreneurs engage the buyers through
the use of technology.

The following ways can be used to advertise your processed/preserved products

using technology:

1.E-mail Marketing- the practice of marketing through the internet.Advertising

using an email to get the attention of the people about your products.

2.Blogging- This is an online journal where you can record your thoughts on
various topics that you want to talk about. Having a blog in your business enables
you to share what you are an expert in or good at.

3.Social Media- Using websites and applications in promoting products and reach
more contacts or customers, and get feedback from them.

Cost-effectiveness of packaging

The use of packaging represents an added cost in marketing and the price of the
marketed product. On the other hand, presentation and the quality of the product
may make it more desirable. Moreover, the marketable life of the product may be
extended because of good packaging.
Make sure, however, that packaging does not cost too much that the added value
on the final selling price becomes no longer palatable to the customer as you can
recall from our previous lesson regarding technology in marketing finished
products.

Computing for the cost and profit

How would you know if you earned or not from your project?
First, you have to compute the total cost of the product. Then, compute for the
mark-up for you to determine the selling price to compute for the profit earned.
Deduct cost from the total amount sold. The excess amount less the cost is the
profit.
Example:
Product
60.00 is the cost
X .20 (20%) is the mark-up
12.00 is the profit

60.00 Cost
+ 12.00 Profit
________
72.00 Selling price

Tips for Recording Transactions of Marketing Preserved Food Products

To keep track of your purchases every day a notebook or a simple organizer

can serve as your daily record for all the expenses, sales, and profits gained from
selling your preserved food products.

See the table for a daily record of purchased materials and sales.
