Marketing management involves setting goals and objectives, developing a marketing plan, organizing the marketing function, implementing the plan, and controlling the marketing program. The marketing mix or "4Ps" refers to product, price, place, and promotion - the key elements that a company can control to influence demand for its product. Price considers factors like costs and targeted audience. Place refers to distribution channels both physical and virtual. Promotion communicates the product's value through advertising and public relations. The "4Cs" is an alternative framework that considers cost, convenience, customer value, and communication from the customer's perspective.
