Sublinho de "Fundamentals of Business-to-Business Marketing - Mastering Business Markets" editado por Michael Kleinaltenkamp, Wulff Plinke, Ian Wilkinson e Ingmar Geiger.:
"When analyzing benefit differences, we need to focus on the meaning of differences in competencies, processes, and programs for the buyer. A seller’s competitive strength is its ability to offer greater benefits or lower costs, i.e., greater net benefits, to the buyer compared to competitors.

Whereas, it may have been sufficient to pursue a policy of customer orientation to gain a lead, it is now the relative position of the supplier compared with its competitors that is critical. In the first chapter, we described this position as a customer advantage from the point of view of the customer. Since customer advantage describes the net difference in benefit between two suppliers, competitor analysis becomes part of customer analysis: the supplier—competitor—customer orientation triangle is the paradigm, which we term market orientation

...Chamar aos clientes "parque", avaliar a qualidade da oferta sem considerar a comparação com o concorrente e a opinião do cliente... tão... sem palavras.
The marketing triangle illustrates this. Whereas focusing on the supplier’s own functions dominated initially (supplier orientation), as competition became more intense and markets shifted from sellers’ to buyers’ markets, it was the turn of the second corner of the triangle—customer orientation. The marketing triangle is complete when the third corner is included: we then speak of market orientation. The marketing concept with its market orientation is the answer to predatory competi- tion and forces management to gear all the processes of the supplying firm to generating customer advantage. Markets are thus developing to the point that customers ultimately dictate the offer. Or, in other words, suppliers who fall behind their competitors in the eyes of the customers will fail without any regret on the part of the customers. The fact that competition is evolving in this way is not based on the behavior of the suppliers alone—customers also contribute to this. Due to competition with regard to innovation, performance, and price, customers are learning that they can continuously demand more. This spiral has no foreseeable end."
