Marketing 101

Marketing is that part of your business that enables all the other parts to function. It is the most basic function of a business. Without marketing, your business literally doesn’t exist. Why?

Because a business exists to create a customer and marketing is how you find, attract, keep and grow customers profitably. In other words, you are as good as dead if you don’t get marketing RIGHT!

This is true for all businesses, whether small, medium or big. Every business needs marketing to remain in business. However, from experience, we’ve discovered that so many small businesses don’t fully grasp the concept of marketing. To some, marketing is advertising and to others, marketing is selling. Neither is totally wrong, both are just myopic views of marketing. That is; looking at marketing from only one perspective. The complete view of marketing is beyond advertising or selling.

The marketing that works is a relationship. It involves consciously creating and sustaining a win-win relationship between a company and her customers.
