As marketers, we should be changing the mantra from ‘always be closing’ to ‘always be helping’ - JONATHAN LISTER The marketing mix and the Four P’s (product, placement, price, promotion), had been circulating in the marketing and advertising worlds for over a decade. Its influence has spurned multiple theoretical offshoots, including Lauterborn’s Four C’s (consumer, cost, communication, convenience) and Shimizu’s Four C’s (commodity, cost, communication, channel).
