TEXT
What is marketing?
A jeans factory in Durham, North Carolina, produces a particular brand of designer jeans for men and women. These jeans can be purchased in stores throughout the United States from Portland, Oregon, to Miami, Florida. What happens from the time the jeans are produced in North Carolina to the time a shopper in Portland or Miami decides to buy the jeans?
To an economist, everything that takes place between production and consumption falls into the category of marketing.
A market is where buyers and sellers come together. Marketing, then, includes the activities that bring the buyer and seller together. It is more than product advertising. Marketing includes buying and selling, transporting and storing, product planning, market research, product support, customer service, financing, insuring and other activities.
In a simple terms, marketing means the movement of goods and services from manufacturer to customer in order to satisfy the customer and to achive the company’s objectives.
Businesses market their goods and services to people they think will buy them. To accomplish this goal businesses assign different marketing jobs to different parts of their work force. A major corporation may have hundreds of people testing new product ideas. Others will be assigned to develop and perfect packaging designs. Still others will work on promoting and advertising the products.
