Commensal (symbiotic) marketing
Commensal (symbiotic) marketing is a marketing on which both corporation and a corporation, a corporation and a consumer, country and a country, human and nature can live. The ７Cs Compass Model[1][2][3][4] by Koichi Shimizu is a framework of Co-marketing (Commensal marketing or Symbiotic marketing).
The four elements of the ７Cs Compass Model
- A formal approach to this customer-focused marketing mix is known as Four Cs (Commodity, Cost, Channel, Communication) in “７Cs Compass Model. The four Cs Model provides a demand/customer centric version alternative to the well-known four Ps supply side model (product, price, place, promotion) of marketing management:[citation needed]
- Product → Commodity
- Price → Cost
- Place → Channel
- Promotion → Communication
- (C2)Commodity – (Original meaning of Latin: Commodus=convenient) : the product for the consumers or citizens. Not product out.
- (C3)Cost – (Original meaning of Latin: Constare= It makes sacrifices) : producing cost, selling cost, purchasing cost and social cost.
- (C4)Channel – (Original meaning is a Canal) : Flow of commodity : marketing channels.
- (C5)Communication – (Original meaning of Latin:Communio=sharing of meaning) : marketing communication : It doesn't promote the sales.
- (C7)Circumstances – (Needle of compass to Circumstances )
In addition to the consumer, there are various uncontrollable external environmental factors encircling the companies. Here it can also be explained by the first character of the four directions marked on the compass model:[citation needed]
