MARKETING
Task 1. Read the text and write out unknown words MARKETING
Marketing includes all the business activities connected with the movement of goods and services from producers to consumers. Sometimes it is called distribution. On the one hand, marketing is made up of such activities as transporting, storing and selling goods and, on the other hand, a series of decisions you make during the process of moving goods from producer to user. Marketing operations include product planning, buying, storage, pricing, promotion, selling, credit, traffic and marketing research. The ability to recognize early trends is very important. Producers must know why, where, for what purpose the consumers buy. Market research helps the producer to predict what the people will want. And through advertising he attempts to influence the customer to buy. Marketing operations are very expensive. They take up more than half of the customer's dollar. The trend in the USA has been to high mass consumption. The construction of good shopping centres has made goods available to consumers. It provided a wide range of merchandize and-plenty of parking facilities. A company's approach to achieving its marketing objectives is called marketing strategy. The various factors a company must take into consideration when developing its marketing objectives are referred to as marketing mix. The marketing mix is often summarized as the so-called four P's: product, price, place, promotion: what to sell, to whom, where, and with what support. Product can be defined as goods or service that you are marketing and includes its design, quality and reliability. Price refers to how much money a company charges for its products. The marketing view of pricing involves considering the value of a product, the volume of sales required. Place refers to distribution, that is, how and where the product is made available to customers. Promotion means presenting the product to the customer. Promotion involves considering the packaging and presentation of the product, its image, the product name, advertising.
