I studied several definitions of Marketing in the two courses I took in Australia. The courses were Business Management and Marketing respectively.
Nowadays I go through more definitions by teaching Business English to some of my students. There is always a unit that involves this subject as part of the book content.
But today I found the best definition ever! hehe I was having a look at the website of a magazine called "Brand New Routes" (published by Disal) when I came across a witty explanation of what Marketing is under the section "Humor". So simple, informal, amusing and definitely clear - in a joke format!
Have fun! xxx
