Key methodologies include the 4 P’s (Product, Pricing, Promotion, Place) and 3 C’s (Consumer, Competition, Company). Marketing also encompasses brand differentiation, high-tech marketing strategies for fast-paced industries, and marketing of intangible services. Required skills include creativity, quantitative analysis, teamwork, and consumer insight.
