Look, we have companions from across the globe. Go take care of their privations, but be aware they must not be able to see you. Now, go!” “However, my mistress, why are you so interested in them? You have never portrayed so much engrossment in anyone else landing on this island,” I inquired. “That is because I want to make them apprehend what a huge blunder they have committed by coming here. For countless years, I have served as Queen and hence when you go muddle, they will think this place is haunted and vamoose!

As you read through the text, note that it is keyed to illustrations used in class. The course is divided into three sections. Section one covers introduction to marketing, consumer behavior, industrial buyer behavior, the marketing environment, where marketing fits into the organization, market segmentation, and product differentiation. Section two covers product and pricing. Section three covers promotion (sales) and distribution. As you read the book, consider that it is organized as follows: marketing and its environment (consumer behavior, industrial buyer behavior, marketing environment), product, pricing, promotion, and distribution.
