Is marketing an art or a science?

Marketing is a TOTAL philosophy – through every

aspect of your business

Key elements:

Know your customers – their likes, dislikes, expectations etc

Know your competitors – their strengths and weaknesses

Marketing is ensuring the business makes what the customer wants to buy

Selling is ensuring customer buys what the business produces

Are you meeting an unmet need?
