"Marketing is not only much broader than selling, but it also is not a specialized activity at all. It encompasses the entire business. It is the whole business seen from the point of view of the final result, that is, from the customer's point of view. Concern and responsibility for marketing must, therefore, permeate all areas of the enterprise." Peter Drucker. Further read: https://www.marketingteacher.com/marketing-and-functions/
