My understanding of marketing
- Marketing is about selling and branding is about identity. In that case these days there is absolutely nothing in a business that is not about branding and marketing. It is how you do business.
- Driven by the Internet’s sometimes painful transparency Marketing and Branding today really mean the art of being, not pretending.
