What Is Marketing?
Marketing is the process of bringing a product or service to the attention of prospective customers.

As a result, marketing departments have a broad set of responsibilities, including collecting and analyzing data, assessing customer needs and desires, defining product/service offerings, creating brand images and positioning, developing distribution channels, and creating promotional campaigns. Marketing practices are found in many types of organizations, including B2B, B2C, nonprofit, and government organizations. The marketing concept can be applied to the process of exchange. Exchange is a process that involves giving and receiving goods or services in an Economic environment. When a customer purchases a product or service, the seller (or provider) receives payment.
How To Get Startups Into The Market?
The first step towards increasing the sales of your new products and brand is to get them into the market. This step is where you’ll be doing the majority of your marketing activities.

Instead, you need to be at the right place at the right time. You can do this by knowing where your customers are and how they like to be entertained.
