Marketing “definition”

Here’s how we see marketing. It’s any activity undertaken by a product or service provider that impacts a potential buyer. Marketing is everything that helps you sell. This might include everything from highway billboards to Facebook posts to the way your receptionist answers the phone.

“Marketing might be defined as everything an organization does to facilitate an exchange between itself and its customers/clients.”

-Dr. Kathleen Micken, Roger Williams University 

Advertising is a subset of marketing

Advertising is just one of many marketing activities, along with public relations, product pricing, customer support and packaging. Crafting messages that promote sales, especially those that establish top-of-mind awareness, is essential to the overall success of marketing in general. Advertising without comprehensive backup is just hot air.

The need for interdependence

Marketing, which is fully connected to sales, inventory, customer service, and all other facets of your business, can supercharge your ability to turn strangers into long term partners. You’ve heard the stories of eager salespeople promising delivery of product that is nowhere near inventory. That’s tough on a customer, especially when your competition is a well-oiled fully integrated machine.

We like to talk about empowering employees to make decisions- that only works with a high volume of communication.

One example of a marketing practice in today’s environment is using content to positively incline people to buy from you and not someone else. Some content examples include regular blogs, website pages, white papers, videos and webinars (there are hundreds of ways to produce and distribute content).

Content has great potential to market your company. United WebWorks has helped in marketing Savannah companies by giving them the right questions to answer:

What does your audience want to know / need to know?

What medium is your typical buyer’s preferred means of gathering information?

How can you use your online presence to target and distribute content?
