Answer 2

If you take the broad view of marketing, which encompasses Product, Packaging, Placement, and Promotion, then marketing will likely be a component of most of your problems. However, there are a whole range of business problems including manufacturing, financial, and legal that have little or nothing to do with marketing.

Answer 3

Marketing would never have sold the Edsel, though they did try it. Marketing wouldn't have saved Enron. Marketing didn't reformulate Coca-Cola when the key ingredient (cocaine) became illegal. Marketing wouldn't have prevented the downsizing of the buggy whip industry when cars came along. Marketing won't fix the lead paint issues with certain products made in China.

No, marketing won't solve all business problems.

Answer 4

Marketing is the key - it is the engine that solves all business problems.

All businesses use Marketing Consultants and therefore, I think if you have a good marketing strategy to follow with a good plan you are bound to be successful. Sales is only important if you know how to market your product or service.

Answer 5

Marketing is a part of the solutions to all businesses besides great product[s] and good back up service and good customer care and guarantee to all products with money back guarantee

Absolutely..no question about it.

Marketing is FAR AND AWAY..the most important business activity you should ever be engaged in....nothing else even comes close.

You must understand what marketing is....

Your customer service process..or people...that is a marketing posistion...not a service prosition...although "service" is the primary function.

Answer 7

Marketing is only a tool but sales is the solution.
Non-stop marketing does not necessarily means sales.
No sales no profit ,no profit no business.
