Process. It is a set of demands and forces that do not answer to institutions or authorities. Markets cannot be governed, only regulated and not always with much success for the regulators. Market forces will always prevail over controls. Look what happened to the Soviet Union and is happening to China.

ok, for me in poa and econs.. that principles of accounts by the way,  Market share, in strategic management and marketing, is the percentage or proportion of the total available market or market segment that is being serviced by a company.\n\nIt can be expressed as a company's sales revenue (from that market) divided by the total sales revenue available in that market. It can also be expressed as a company's unit sales volume (in a market) divided by the total volume of units sold in that market.\n\nNow, market, is like, customers. Those people you are going to sell you product to. like for example china. We say, china is a very big market. That means that there are lots of people to sell your product to there.

If you are speaking of an established business process, it will make things a lot easier to have one when implementing new tech. If you have processes that are constantly changing, your needs will change a lot, and this will call for changes in technology. You can sometimes get technology to work for more than one purpose, but it will not be nearly as efficient if the process changes frequently.

Marketing management encompasses a wide variety of functions and activities, although the marketing department itself may be responsible for only a subset of these. If, for example, the finance department of a given company makes pricing decisions (for deals, proposals, contracts, etc.), that finance department has responsibility for an important component of marketing management -- pricing.\n\nRegardless of the organizational unit of the firm responsible for managing them, marketing management functions and activities include the following:\n\n\nMarketing research and analysis\n\nIn order to make fact-based decisions regarding marketing strategy and design effective, cost-efficient implementation programs, firms must possess a detailed, objective understanding of their own business and the market in which they operate. Traditionally, such analysis was structured into three areas: Customer analysis, company analysis, and competitor analysis (so-called "3Cs" analysis). More recently, it has become fashionable in some marketing circles to divide these further into five "Cs": Customer analysis, Company analysis, Collaborator analysis, Competitor analysis, and analysis of the industry Context.\n\nTo perform accurate analysis in these areas, marketers often find it necessary to invest in research and collect the data required to examine these issues objectively. As such, they often conduct market research (alternately marketing research) to obtain this information.\n\n\nMarketing strategy\n\nOnce the company has obtained an adequate understanding of the customer base and its own competitive position in the industry, marketing managers are able to make key strategic decisions designed to maximize the revenues and profits of the firm. The selected strategy may aim for any of a variety of strategic objectives, including optimizing short-term unit margins, revenue growth, market share, long-term profitability, or other goals.\n\nTo achieve the desired objective, marketers typically identify one or more target market segments which they intend to pursue. The company will then allocate more resources to aquire and retain customers in the target segment(s) relative to other (non-targeted) customers.\n\nAdditionally, marketing managers will identify the desired positioning they want the company, product, or brand to occupy in the customer's mind. This positioning is often an encapsulation of a key benefit the company's product or service offers that is differentiated and superior to the benefit offered by competitive products. For example, Volvo has traditionally positioned its products in order to be perceived as the leader in "safety" in the automobile market in North America.\n\n\nImplementation planning\n\nAfter the firm's strategic objectives have been identified, the target market selected, and the desired positioning for the company, product or brand has been determined, marketing managers focus on how to best implement the chosen strategy. Traditionally, this has involved implementation planning across the "4Ps" of marketing: Product management, Pricing, Place (i.e. sales and distribution channels), and Promotion.\n\nIn many cases, managers will develop a marketing plan to specify the key implementation intiatives that the company should pursue to execute the chosen strategy and achieve the specified marketing objective.\n\n\nProcess and project management\n\nOnce the key implementation initiatives have been identified, marketing managers work to oversee the execution of these projects. Typically, this involves designing and improving the effectiveness of core marketing processes, such as product development and pricing, along with the oversight and management of specific marketing projects, such as sales force management initiatives, channel marketing programs and the execution of public relations and advertising campaigns.\n\n\nOrganizational management and leadership\n\nMarketi
