Marketing- promoting and selling of products or services.
The aim of marketing is to know and understand the customer so well that the product or service fits him and sells itself. Ideally, marketing should result in a customer who is ready to buy.
Exercise: Marketers have to identify or anticipate a customer need; develop product or service that meets that need better than any competing products or services; persuade target customers to try the product or service; and in the long term modify it to satisfy changes in consumer needs or market conditions. Marketers can design particular features, attractive packaging, and effective advertising, that will influence consumer’s wants. Marketing thus combines market research, new product development, distribution, advertising, promotion, product improvement, and so on.
