Marketing involves meeting the needs of your customers. After identifying the needs of a client, assess your competence in meeting those needs and provide the satisfaction that will forge a relationship between you and the client. Marketing transcends beyond just meeting the client's need or desire, but creating a meaningful connection with your brand and products. The relationship that is formed, based on the customer's experience or the feeling associated with a product, will enable your business to be the choice for that client.
