What are the basic function of marketing

Hi, sufa!

Is this a homework question?

Marketing can have many facets. So, it would help if you would be specific as to what type of marketing it is about which you're inquiring.

Thanks!

To sell goods and services.

There are four basic functions of marketing, known as the "4 Ps" - Pricing, Promotion, Product (or service) and Place (distribution).

The whole point of marketing is to create exchanges that satisfy the objectives of an individual or organization. Ideally, you would find the perfect balance of the 4 Ps to do this.

Selling and advertising are ways to achieve those goals. These terms are often used synonymously with "marketing," but are in fact only elements of Promotion - ways to communicate the Product to the customer.

Marketing is the process to entice other people to use your product and let them know your product is the best in world.
