The Marketing Mix
Gbogbo ọrọ náà
Every product you buy, from a budget smartphone to a designer jacket, has been shaped by four interconnected decisions: what to sell, how much to charge, where to sell it, and how to tell people about it. Together these four elements form the marketing mix, and getting the balance right is what separates brands that thrive from those that quietly disappear.
In this lesson you will explore each of the four Ps (product, price, place, and promotion), learn how businesses choose pricing strategies, trace a product through its life cycle, and examine the distribution channels that connect producers to consumers. You will also see how the four Ps must work together as a coordinated package rather than as isolated choices.
