Marketing is the management process for identifying, anticipating and satisfying customer requirements profitably. Chartered Institute of Marketing What is Marketing? Marketing is the distinguishing, the unique function of business... It is the whole business seen from the point of view of the final result, that is, from the customer’s point of view. P. Drucker What is Market? A market consists of all the potential customers sharing a particular need or want who might be willing and able to engage in exchange to satisfy that need or want. Kotler P.

Integrated To integrate = To combine To desegregate To find the total value of IMC - Definitions The concept under which a company carefully integrates and co-ordinates its many communications channels to deliver a clear, consistent and compelling message about the organisation and its products Kotler IMC - Definitions IMC is the integration of specialised communications functions that previously operated with varying degrees of autonomy. Pelsmacker et al. IMC - Definitions 'one voice, one look and image across all communications' Belch & Belch Opinions about IMC The relevant issue in the whole IMC discussion is the consumer point of view; the consumer does not make a subtle difference between advertising, sponsorship, direct mailing, sales promotions, events or trade fairs. To him or her, these are all very similar and indistinguishable ways a company employs to persuade the consumer to buy its products. Pelsmacker et al. Opinions about IMC For integrated marketing communications more than one creative treatment message or image - may be used, but, where more than a single treatment is employed, they should be mutually consistent.
