Management is a function of planning, organizing, coordinating, directing and controlling. Any managerial system, at any managerial level, is characterized in terms of these general functions.

Management is a variety of specific activities. Marketing manage­ment refers to a broad concept covering organization of production and sales of products, which is based on consumer requirements research. All companies try to look beyond their present situation and develop a long-term strategy to meet changing conditions in their industry. Marketing management, therefore, consists of evaluating market opportunities, selecting markets, developing market strategies, planning marketing tactics and controlling marketing results.

Strategic planning includes defining the company's long-term ob­jectives as well as specific objectives, such as sales volume, market share, profitability and innovation, and deciding on financial, material and other resources necessary to achieve those objectives.

In problems of market selection and product planning one of the key concepts is that of the Product Life Cycle. That products pass through various stages between life and death (introduction - growth - matu­rity - decline), is hard to deny. Equally accepted is the understanding that a company should have products mix with representation in each of these stages. Companies can make far more effective marketing deci­sions if they take time to find out where each of their products stands in its life cycle.

As a managerial process, marketing is the way in which an organiza­tion determines its best opportunities in the marketplace. The market­ing process is divided into a strategic and a tactical phase. The strategic phase has three components-segmentation, targeting, and positioning (STP). Segmentation is determining different groups of customers in the market. Targeting is choosing which groups of customers can be served effectively. Positioning is placing the company or brand in rela­tion to competitors.

The marketing process includes designing and implementing vari­ous tactics, commonly referred to as the "4 Ps": product, price, place (or distribution), and promotion.
