Marketing

According to the American Marketing Association, marketing is “an organizational function and a set of processes for creating, communicating and delivering value to customers, and for managing customer relationships in a way that benefits the organization and its stakeholders.” Create something people want, tell them about it, and deliver it to them in such a way that everyone benefits.
