HND in Business:
Marketing
What is Marketing? From the products you buy to the services you use, every media message you receive and the choice you make has been influenced by marketing forces. Marketing is about understanding your customers, your competitors and what’s happening in the market.
This enables you to tap into key trends, identify something that people or businesses want, develop a product that meets this need at the right price, and promote the product in the right place and at the right time, all through a sustainable and responsible lens.
Marketing is an industry that must always be future-facing and purposeful. Many of its best professionals are digitally savvy and embrace technological change, adopting tools and techniques that will help them to drive sales, deliver leads, or increase engagement.
