The Powers of Marketing

“Marketing is: meeting needs profitably.”

Philip Kotler

In order to create, communicate, and deliver your company’s value, what needs to be bolstered? A deep comprehension of business and marketing is necessary to develop and execute superior marketing strategies.

Knowledge-based expertise is required to assess what needs work

However, marketing specialists are surprisingly rare. Many small- to mid-sized ventures cannot secure strong marketing resources.
In fact, over 90% of SMEs do not have a marketing department.※1
On the other hand, many ventures between seed and growth stages raise “Wrong marketing strategy” as the second reason for failures※2 (The first reason is “Lack of managerial acumen”).
