This blog is important to me because my background is in sales and marketing and I realize the importance of marketing in the business world.

Marketing is something that is extremely important to businesses today. Businesses do not gain customers or make a profit without marketing. Businesses must market their products/services in order to sell them and they can do this in many ways. Examples of ways to market your product/service:
·         Advertisements on billboards
·         Advertisements on T.V./movies
·         Client testimonials
·         Commercials
·         Free giveaways
Please take a minute and watch this video on how companies can market their products and services more effectively:


Companies realize that in order to make money, they must spend money on advertising. Some companies do a better job of advertising than others and in return, they get more business. The following in a list of companies that does a great job of advertising:
·         Target
·         Chick-fil-a
·         State Farm Insurance
·         Geico
·         Wal-Mart
I believe that these businesses are as successful as they are because of the great advertising that they do. What are your thoughts on it?
