A PROFESSOR EXPLAINS MARKETING TO MBA STUDENTS.
1.You see a gorgeous girl at the party.
You go up to her and say: "I am very rich. Marry me!
That's direct marketing.
2.You're at the party with bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl.
One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says: "He's very rich. Marry him!".
That's advertising.
3.You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and get her telephone number. The next day, you call and say: "Hi, I'm very rich.
Marry me!".
That's telemarketing.
4.You're at a party and see a gorgeous girl.
You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink.
You open the door (of the car) for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her ride
and then say: "By the way, I'm rich. Will you marry me?" -
That's public relations.
5.You're at a party and see a gorgeous girl.
She walks up to you and says: "You are very rich! Can you marry me?"
That's brand recognition.
6.You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and say: "I am very rich. Marry me!" She gives you a nice hard slap on your face.
That's customer feedback.
7.You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and say: "I am very rich. Marry me!" She introduces you to her husband.
That's demand and supply gap.
8.You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and before you say anything, another person comes and tells her: "I'm rich. will you
marry me?" and she goes with him.
That's competition eating into your market share.
9.You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and before you
can say: "I'm rich. Marry me!" Your wife arrives.
That's restriction for entering new markets.
