Relationship Marketing
1. Relationship Marketing assumes Total Organisation marketing, and so that is a necessary start point
2. Many managers still think that ‘doing things right’ (implementation) is as important, or even more important, than doing the right things (strategy), Kotler reminded us
3. Marketing alone does not make a business enterprise… It is not necessary for a business to grow bigger; but it is necessary that it constantly grow better
Brian gives pragmatic advice but equally demonstrates the highest level of insight and "wisdom", with references in his compelling article to many marketing gurus and thinkers: Kotler, Drucker, Moorman, Palmer, Shultz....the list goes on and on....
At a time when the issues of sustainability and the very definitions of marketing are being questioned, read this thought provoking piece from Brian Cariss:
