AMA Mission

Marketing is the activity, set of institutions,
and processes for creating, communicating,
delivering, and exchanging offerings that have
value for customers, clients, partners, and
society at large. (Approved July 2013)
Define Marketing

Marketing research is the function that links the
consumer, customer, and public to the marketer
through information--information used to identify
and define marketing opportunities and problems;
generate, refine, and evaluate marketing actions;
monitor marketing performance; and improve
understanding of marketing as a process. Marketing
research specifies the information required to
address these issues, designs the method for
collecting information, manages and implements the
data collection process, analyzes the results, and
communicates the findings and their implications.
(Approved October 2004)
