...WHAT IS MARKETING? Marketing Focuses on Exchange One popular conception of marketing is that it primarily involves sales. Other perspectives view marketing as consisting primarily of advertising or retailing activities. For some of you market research, pricing, or product planning may have come to mind. While all these activities are part of marketing, it encompasses more than just these individual elements. The American Marketing Association defines marketing as the process of planning and executing the conception, pricing, promotion, and distribution of ideas, goods, and services to create exchanges that satisfy individual and organizational objectives. Effective marketing requires that managers recognize the interdependence of such activities as sales and promotion and how they can be combined to develop a marketing program. The AMA definition recognizes that exchange is a central concept in marketing. For exchange to occur, there must be two or more parties with something of value to one another, a desire and ability to give up that something, to the other party, and a way to communicate with each other. Advertising and promotion play an important role in the exchange process by informing consumers of an organizalion's product or service and convincing them of its ability to satisfy their needs or wants. Not all marketing transactions involve the exchange of money for a tangible product or service. Nonprofit organizations such as charities religious groups, the...

...I am debabrata banerjeee.................. The first definition for integrated marketing communication came from the American Association of Advertising Agencies (also 4A's) in 1989, defining IMC as "an approach to achieving the objectives of a marketing campaign through a well-coordinated use of different promotional methods that are intended to reinforce each other. "[1] The 4A's definition of IMC recognizes the strategic roles of various communication disciplines (advertising, public relations, sales promotions, etc.) to provide clarity, consistency, and increased impact when combined within a comprehensive communications plan. Basically, it is the application of consistent brand messaging across both traditional and non-traditional marketing channels. The Journal of Integrated Marketing Communication from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University refers to IMC as "a strategic marketing process specifically designed to ensure that all messaging and communication strategies are unified across all channels and are centered around the customer. "[2] IMC is used practically to allow one medium's weakness to be offset by another medium's strength, with elements synergized to support each other and create greater impact.[3] From the Perley Isaac Reed School of Journalism at West Virginia University The American Marketing Association defines Integrated Marketing Communications (IMC) as “a planning process designed to assure that all brand contacts received by a customer...

...integrated marketing communication Philip J. Kitchen and Inga Burgmann INTRODUCTION Integrated marketing communication (IMC) emerged during the late twentieth century and its importance has been growing ever since (Grove, Carlson, and Dorsch, 2002; Cornelissen, 2001; Hartley and Pickton, 1999). Owing to the impact of information technology, changes came about in the domains of marketing and marketing communications which led to the emergence of IMC (Kitchen et al., 2004a; Phelps and Johnson, 1996; Duncan and Everett, 1993). The multiplication of media, demassification of consumer markets, and the value of the Internet in today’s society are just three of the areas in which technological innovation has impacted (Pilotta et al., 2004; Peltier, Schibrowsky, and Schultz, 2003; Reid, 2003; Lawrence, Garber, and Dotson, 2002; Fill, 2001; Low, 2000; Hutton, 1996). This in turn left marketers in a challenging and competitive environment, trying to fulfil customers wants and needs while also developing long-term relationships with them. IMC can help in creating coordinated and consistent messages across various channels of communication. Furthermore, the concept is especially valuable in that it places great emphasis on the importance of all stakeholder groups and, in particular, on customer loyalty, which can only be created through strategic relationship building (Jin, 2003/2004; Cornelissen, 2000; Eagle and Kitchen, 2000; Pickton and Hartley, 1998; Miller and Rose, 1994).

...efinition of Advertising Published: Tue July 24th, 2007 By: ugochukwu magnus Category: Marketing ver the years, advertising has been given various definitions by different scholars. Etymologically, the word 'advertising' is derived from the latin word ' ad vetere' which means 'to draw attention'. It is all about drawing a person's attention to buy a product or seek for service. This is why Hart and O'Connor in Eluwa (1999) defines advertising as the action of calling something to the attention of the public especially by paid announcement". From the above advertising. It is clear that Hart and O'Connor are saying that advertising is all about the public attention drawn by the paid announcement. This definition is similar to Frank Jefkins definitions cited in Eluwa (1999) as the means by which we make known what we have to sell or what we want to buy. But it is limited from the angle of the media of communication. rank Jefkins by this definition is saying that advertising is all about communicating the products with the sole aim of selling the products. It accepts interpersonal communication, macro-communication as part of advertising but Aliede in Okunna (Ed. 2002), sees it as " a form of communication through the media about products, services, ideas, personalities or organizations paid for by an identified sponsor. Definition of advertising as the non-personal communication of information usually paid for and usually persuasive about products, services or ideas by identified...
