Answer: Marketing can be defined as the process by which companies create value for
customers and build strong customer relationships in order to capture value from customers in
return. The marketing process consists of five steps. In the first four steps, companies work to
understand consumers, create customer value, and build strong customer relationships. In the
final step, companies reap the rewards of creating superior customer value. By creating value for
consumers, they in turn capture value from consumers in the form of sales, profits, and long-term
customer equity.
