Can someone please explain how i should approach this question: "Explain how the strategic role of marketing impacts on the marketing strategies adapted by a business".

i have my case studies I'm just confused what do i talk about? the marketing plan and how that impacts the strategies or how a business uses the marketing strategies to achieve profit maximisation ??


Thank you in advance

Talk about the the strategic(long term) goal of marketing is to translate business goals into reality, through the implementation of a marketing plan.



I would also talk about business goals, such as growth, rising market share, profit maximisation etc, and relate these to the strategies that the business could implement

For example, you could potentially set it out like this;

Executive Summary:


Strategy 1: (Channel Choice)
Define Channel Choice
How this strategy has been implemented at case study
The effect of strategy
Relate this back to the strategic role of marketing (e.g how does this help the business achieve its goals?)



Firstly, go to the HSC business studies syllabus
http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/syllabus_hsc/pdf_doc/business-studies-st6-syl.pdf



Look in the topic "Marketing"


Role of marketing
 strategic role of marketing goods and services


Marketing strategies

 promotion
