Lame... very lame,
By Justin (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Marketing (Hardcover)
This book sucks. It makes the basic principles of marketing more confusing by bombarding the reader with various terms and phrases with an excessive amount of overlap between them. There is no clear-cut distinction between the glossary items, making studying for bi-weekly exams a chore.

Concept of Marketing,
By A Customer
This review is from: Marketing 2000 Edition Study Guide (Paperback)
I used this textbook last semester in my first marketing class. I didn't know much about marketing.This book explains very clearly what marketing is, and gave examples of companies that are using the marketing concept, and how it affects customers.The Book also presents ways that you, the consumer can tell weather or not a company is using the marketing concept in order to satisy your needs.
