What  is  marketing?  Many  people  think  of  marketing  only  as  selling  and  advertising.  And  no    -  every  day  we  are  bombarded  with  television  commercials,  direct-mail  offers,  sales  calls  and  internet  pitches.  However,  selling  and  advertising  are  only  the  tip  of  the  marketing  iceberg.
Today  marketing  must    not  in  the  old  sense  of  making  a  sale  -  'telling  and  selling'  -  but  in  the  new  sense  of  satisfying  customer  needs.  If  the  marketer  does  a  good  job  of  understanding  consumer  needs,  develops  products  and    that  provide  superior  customer  value,  and  prices,  distributes  and  promotes  them  effectively,  their  products  will  sell  easily.  Thus  selling  and  advertising  are  only  part  of  a  larger  'marketing  mix'  -  a  set  of  marketing  tools  that  work  together  to  satisfy  customer  needs  and  build  customer  relationships.
Broadly  defined,  marketing  is  a  social  and    process  by  which  individuals  and  organisations  obtain  what  they  need  and  want  through  creating  and  exchanging  value  with  others.  In  a  narrower  business  context,  marketing  involves  building  profitable,  value-laden  exchange  relationships  with  customers.  Hence,  we  define  marketing  as  the  process  by  which  companies    value  for  customers  and  build  strong  customer  relationships  in  order  to  capture  value  from  customers  in  return.
