What is Marketing?
Actions were taken to buy or sell products. It can be done by an individual or company to promote their products. The goal of marketing is to achieve more sales, and brand awareness, convert first-time customers to lifetime customers and improvise the quality of the product.
Evolution of Marketing:
Are you scared of the word marketing???
Do you feel very difficult to learn about marketing??
Don’t worry…
Marketing is not a new fancy term. People from past ages have been practicing marketing to sell their products by calling them business tactics or secrets.
“Word of Mouth” is the best marketing technique used in those days. Even today this works like a magic if the product is worth it. The product can be anything like books, dresses, food items, online courses, spares, and what not…
In today’s digital world same is implemented through affiliate marketing and influencers. The process is the same, “people tell people to tell other people about the product and it continues”.
If the product isn’t worth enough of the hype, then the results are going to backfire.
Use it wisely.
Traditional vs Digital Marketing:
We already know marketing is existing for past centuries, only the way of doing marketing gets upgraded every year.
Ways of Marketing in those days:
- Newspapers and Magazines
