Marketing
Marketing has become more sophisticated, with the Internet, for example, as the most recent technology to revolutionize the field - allowing companies to reach millions of potential clients at the click of a button.
The essential principle remains the same however, as in the days of the original markets - producers want shoppers to choose their offering and not their rivals'; so they call attention to it and try to make it sound tastier, riper and fresher.
In its broadest definition, marketing encompasses every step of the process, from creating an image or "essence" for a product or company, to branding, packaging, advertising, public relations, sales and customer relationship management. All these activities can be seen as specialized parts of a whole which is called "marketing".
Marketing activities include producing and placing advertising, both in the media (print, TV, the internet), and on billboards and posters; direct mailings (whether by post or email) of leaflets and brochures; promotions; and face-to-face activities such as organizing and attending events. Anything which creates awareness of a company or product for potential purchasers, is an aspect of marketing. Marketing is a fantastic industry in which to work, and InternZoo lists a number of different opportunities within it.
