The marketing environment encompasses internal and external influences that affect a company's capability to effectively engage with its target market. It is divided into micro and macro environments, where the micro environment includes factors such as the organization itself, suppliers, marketing intermediaries, competitors, and the public, while the macro environment consists of demographic, economic, technological, natural, socio-cultural, and politico-legal aspects. Understanding these factors is crucial for developing effective marketing strategies and ensuring customer-oriented behavior across all organizational departments.
