“As a young child, I followed the same routine every Saturday morning. First, I would awaken early, before anyone else in my family had gotten up. I wanted to make sure I had the living room all to myself as I ate my cereal and watched cartoons. After my favorite shows were over, I would read the cartoons in Saturday’s local paper, making sure to cut out my favorite ones and tack them to my bulletin board. Next, I would get dressed for the day and head outside. My neighborhood friends and I would grab our bikes and spend the afternoon exploring the park near our houses. By the time we got tired of riding our bikes, it would be time for my family to go out to dinner together. We always went out for a nice meal on Saturday evenings.

“Marketing is the activity of facilitating exchange of a given commodity for goods, services, and/or money for the purpose of delivering maximum value to the owner of the commodity. From a societal point of view, marketing is the link between a society’s material requirements and its economic patterns of response. Marketing satisfies these needs and wants through exchange processes and building long-term relationships. The exchange process is the act of obtaining a desired object from someone by offering something of value in return. The exchange between the person in need (i.e., someone who offers money or some other personal resource) and the organization selling the product, service, or idea results in a transaction. The top goal of any marketing organization is to facilitate and help increase sales transaction by convincing potential consumers and existing customers to buy their company’s product or service. With the emergence of the Internet and e-commerce during the 1990s, the nature of the marketing exchange for businesses and customers has changed drastically. Today’s consumers have access to far more and far better information. They also have many more choices.
Businesses must provide personalized, relevant and high quality content that competes with a fast, ever- changing competitive landscape.”
