Welcome to BUS203Principles of Marketing
My name is Melinda Salzer; I’m one of the professors that helped develop this course. In this course, you will learn about the marketing process and examine the range of marketing decisions an organization must make to sell its products and services. You will also learn how to think like a marketer – and the best marketers know that marketing has always focused on the consumer. You will begin to think about who the consumer of goods and services is, what the consumer needs, and what the consumer wants. Marketing is an understanding of how to communicate with the consumer. Four activities characterize marketing: creating products and services that serve consumers, communicating a clear value proposition, delivering products and services in a way that optimizes value, and exchanging (or trading) value for those offerings. You can start by reviewing the course learning outcomes and the syllabus, you can find both on the left navigation panel. Let’s get started!
