re: How would you define Marketing?

"Well Mr Wolff." says Little Red Riding Hood.

"I think marketing is exactly what it says it is.

The word is derived from the French of course, where the pronouciation of the verb "get" was corrupted around the 17th century to "ket" by merchants who lost their teeth to unhappy customers.

As you may correctly surmise the word "mark" remains unchanged through history, ergo; the word and meaning of "MARKET" is simply another way of saying "Get the Mark", or "On the Mark" if we are in the sport of direct sales.

"Oh and where is Granny? Has she been marked down?"

Cheers
Robert
