What is Marketing?

Marketing is a social and managerial
process by which individuals and groups
obtain what they need and want through
creating and exchanging products and
value with others

Role of Marketing in
a Business Organisation
• Marketing co-exists in companies as an equal
partner with Operations and
Finance/Accounting
• In many organisations, Marketing personnel
are the ‘natural’ future leaders (P&G, other
consumer goods marketers)
• Some companies are naturally attuned to
having Finance experts (most banks,
investment companies); or scientists (NASA);
