(CIM, 2001) Marketing is the process of planning and executing the conception, pricing, promotion and distribution of ideas, goods and services to create exchange and satisfy individual and organisational objectives. (AMA, 1985) Marketing - points of agreement (CIB & AMA) • Management process. • Giving customers what they want. • Identifies and anticipates customer requirements. • Fulfils customers requirements profitably.

MARKETING AS A FUNDAMENTAL BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY • Distinguish between: – Marketing as a philosophy (e.g. a company- wide culture of putting the customer first) – Marketing as a set of techniques (e.g. advertising, market research) • Techniques are likely to fail if the philosophy is not fully adopted MARKETING IN RELATION TO OTHER CORPORATE FUNCTIONS • Viewed as a philosophy, everybody in an organisation should be a “part-time marketer” • “Marketing is so basic that it cannot be considered to be a separate function. It is the whole business seen from the point of view of its final result, that is, from the customer's point of view". - Peter Drucker An INTEGRATIVE BUSINESS FUNCTION? • The role of marketing in bringing (departmental) functions together in emphasing the customer focus? - marketing the GLUE?
