What is Marketing?
Definition of marketing
Marketing is the term used to refer to the set of techniques or strategies used to study the behavior of the markets, the commercial management of companies and the needs of consumers. This term, although we can find it already included in the latest editions of the Dictionary of the Spanish language, is shown in italics when considering an Anglicism or foreign term, whose translation or equivalent is the word marketing, although it is also frequently used as such, the term marketing.
The term Marketing is often confused with other types of actions related to advertising. However, marketing can be considered as the set of actions or strategic aspects that can develop a planned way and cover a multitude of applications beyond simple advertising. From a business point of view, this set of strategies is called a Marketing Plan. That is why we are faced with a really broad concept that can branch out depending on its application and strategic objective, since marketing can both be used to create a sales strategy, even to plan the different impact actions of a brand or company.
