Describe how marketing has evolved into a major business function that crosses all areas of a firm or organization.
What will be an ideal response?
Marketing advises production about how much of the company's product to make and then tells supply chain mangers when to ship it. It creates long-lasting, mutually valuable relationships between the company and the firms from which it buys. It identifies those elements that local customers value and makes it possible for the firm to expand globally. Marketing has had a significant impact on consumers as well. Without marketing, it would be difficult for any of us to learn about new products and services.
