| Market Identifies Customers Needs And Wants | Marketing finds out what customers need and want. Marketing tries to anticipate what they'll want in the future so that the business can get one step ahead of the market.

Most large businesses have special marketing departments |
| Marketing Is Important In A Competitive Environment | 1) Companies selling products in a competitive environment rely on marketing to help them obtain a share of the market. 2) Once they have a customer base, marketing helps them come up with new products and make sure that their customers don't shop elsewhere. 3) Companies invent Unique Selling Points (USP) for their products to persuade customers to buy their products rather then other competitors. 4) Marketing helps make sure customers stay loyal to a particular brand. |
| High Disposable Income Increases The Need For Marketing | (Disposable Income - The amount of money that customers have left to spend after they've paid their taxes and pension contributions) 1) When customers have lots of disposable income, they start to buy things they wouldn't usually. 2) Manufacturers of these products all want to attract a share of this new group of customers, so they increase the amount that they spend on marketing. 3) The extra spend on marketing causes sales to rise, which leads to an increase in revenue. 4) However, an increase in disposable income, can lead to a decrease in the cheaper, lower quality products. Manufacturers may spend more on these to win back market share. |
| Gloabalisation And Brand Awareness Can Affect Marketing Strategies | Globalisation is good for large companies because it allows them to sell their products all over the world. (Coca-Cola and McDonald's are examples of very successful global brands). 1) Global markets has led to customers being very brand aware. Companies often market major brands differently from that the way they market lesser-known brand products. 2) Successful brands often choose to advertise the brand name rather than a specific product as this will increase the sales of all of their products not just the one. 3) Some consumers dislike buying from large, global companies because they feel that they're more impersonal or too powerful. |
