Core Concept and Importance of Marketing for New Ventures
Marketing is the process of identifying customer needs, creating value through products or services, and effectively communicating that value to target customers. For new ventures, marketing is a critical function because it helps entrepreneurs understand their market, attract potential customers, build brand awareness, and differentiate their business from competitors. Effective marketing enables startups to generate sales, establish customer loyalty, and achieve sustainable growth by ensuring that the right products reach the right audience at the right time. Without proper marketing, even innovative products and services may fail to gain market acceptance, making marketing essential for the survival and success of new ventures.
