Business strategy refers to the policies that a company establishes top attain a competitive position in the market. It entails optimal utilization of all resources available for an organization to make the maximum profit possible by reducing costs. Marketing strategy focuses on establishing strategies of attracting and retaining customers and the overall competitiveness of the company in the market. Business strategy is related to marketing strategy in that the overall goal of the two strategies is to improve the competitiveness of the company while maximizing the profits generated. Business strategy contains all the strategies involved in maintaining the performance of a company while marketing strategy is a subset of business strategy (Ferrell & Hartline, 2008).

Differentiated markets are defined as markets which focus on specific needs of the customers. The marketers aim at building customer loyalty by concentrating on particular needs of the customers. Market specialization is a common feature of differentiated markets and the competition among firms is very high. Each organization makes an effort to capture the demand of as many customers as possible. On the other hand, undifferentiated markets are those markets with general characteristics such that the marketer focuses on the general needs of the customers. The specific needs of the customers are not focused but the common needs are satisfied by the marketers. In such markets the level of competition is low and companies can operate in the market successfully without focusing on individual needs of the customers. Mass advertising is applied to reduce the costs of promoting to individual customers (Bull and Passewitz, 2010).
