Marketing Myopia
Sellers pay more attention to the specific products they offer than to the benefits and experiences produced by the products. They focus on the wants and lose sight of the needs.
Marketing Myopia suggests that businesses will do better in the end if they concentrate on meeting customers needs rather than on selling products.
The Myopic culture, would pave the way for a business to fail, due to the short-sighted mindset and illusion that a firm is in a so-called 'growth industry'. This belief leads to complacency and a loss of sight of what customers want.
A short-sighted and inward looking approach to marketing that focuses on the needs of the company instead of defining the company and its products in terms ofthe customers' needs and wants. It results in the failure to see and adjust to the rapid changes in their markets.

Need Shaping Marketing
RESPONSIVE MARKETING
It is the form of marketing when some company defines an existing clear need and prepare an affordable solution. (Recognizing that women wanted to spend less time for cooking and cleaning, led to the invention of modern washing machine, microwave oven etc.)
ANTICIPATIVE MARKETING
It is a form of marketing when a company recognize an emergent or latent need, and come out with an affordable solution. Evian, Perrier anticipated growing market for bottled drinking water as the quality of water deteriorated in many places. Anticipative marketing is more risky than responsive marketing;companies may come into market too early or too late,or may even be totally wrong about thinking that such a market would develop.(eg. Dish washers in India)
Late Akio Morita, founder and chairman of Sony, who introduced these and many other new products, summarized his marketing philosophy in these words: I dont serve markets. I create them.
Market-driven companies focus on researching current customers to identify their problems, gather new ideas, develop products that result in incremental improvements, not radical innovations. Market-driving companies generate significantly new products, services, business formats and raise our sights and our civilization. These companies are much more than customer-led. They lead customer where they want to go, but dont know yet.
