When IKEA noticed that people wanted good furnishings at substantially lower prices, it created knockdown furniture.

These two firms demonstrated marketing savvy and turned a private or social need into a profitable business opportunity.

 
The aim of marketing is to create value for customers in order to capture value from customers in return.
