Well one way of getting your head around the concept is to think of marketing as a management process responsible for identifying, anticipating and satisfying customer requirements profitably. In simple terms it is about getting the right product or service to the right customer in the right place at the right time. But in today’s complex and uncertain world, marketing isn’t just a process it is in fact an attitude of mind. It requires that when making “marketing decisions” you look at these from the viewpoint of the customer. Why? Because more than likely, your business is operating in a crowded and busy marketplace where the customer is in control and much to your dismay spoiled for choice!
