INTRODUCTION
Marketing has probably been with us ever since serpent tempted eve to
consume a certain apple. But in its more scientific professional firm, marketing is of more recent growth to industry in general from a simple
to a more complex form of production
and distribution of goods and
services.
The
initial stage of development was that, of barter. The producer of a commodity supplied the consumer of it directly face-to-face and was paid for it with
another commodity which the consumer
had produced in his turn.
The
most major stage was that of professional production wishing on intermediary as distributor and employing the
mechanism of money and not barter that is a retailer emerged paid in cash and
probably was the dominant figure in the
transaction following the industrial revolution a further stage of evolution occurred with the development of mass production of goods and
services new factories
produced standardization commodities for new urban
communities unable to produce their own requirement.
Along with standardization want branding i.e. a standard name. But this stage was probably production
oriented or production domination.
There
come a time when mass production became common place and more than one brand of a particular type of product emerged become available to
.purchase competitive branded
product. In this situation, its essential to get more distribution more shop display, better retailer support them the competitor
in this phase the company
salesman become the key figure, the period was sale dominated.
As a consumer income increased and consumer
attitude developed great sovereignty of choose emerged Sheer availability in the store sheer
production display was not
enough the consumer to be turn over. At a time when the
consumer becomes the
dominant force, the marketing concept truly emerged. This is the phase we are
in now, that
is to say
marketing emerged in conjunction with a
variety of force
from which it
is inseparable:
1. The consumer
2. Free availability of competitive products
3. Free choice
4. Consumer discrimination
This
governs what marketing is and does.
