Business that does not invest in marketing cannot expect an appropriate level of sales. Because of that, each business has different marketing activities implemented to stimulate sales among existing customers and bring fresh blood into the business through new customers.
What you need to know is that there are thousands or millions of potential customers for your company. However, before they become customers first they need to hear about the products and / or services offered by your business. That is the job of your marketing activities.
