What is marketing?
Marketing is a relatively young concept. In 1935 the American Marketing Association established for the first time Marketing:
“Marketing es una función organizacional responsable de los procesos de creación, comunicación y generación de value added for the client y de las relaciones de negocio con los mismos aportando beneficio tanto para la organización como para los stakeholders”.
In 1985 this definition is revised by the same association:
"Marketing is the procedure of planning and executing the conception of price, promotion and distribution of ideas, goods and services to generate exchanges that satisfy both individual and organizational objectives"
To find a new official revision we have to wait until 2007, and it is important to note that in that period we are in full swing of both the Digital marketing como del Social Media Marketing.
After the respective review and update, the definition is defined as:
"Marketing is an activity that using instructions and processes of creation, communication, delivery and exchange offers added value to society, consumers, customers and partners"
Marketing history and evolution
The 4 Ps of marketing
Product, Price, Point of sale and Promotion are the four basic items with which the American professor E. Jerome McCarthy defined the concept of marketing in 1960. These four variables, known as "the 4 Ps of marketing", have the ability to optimally clarify how marketing works in a particular way. comprehensive and complete.
The 4 Cs of Marketing
In 1990 Robert Lauterborn, raised the concept of the 4Cs (consumer, cost, convenience and communication) as a part of the evolution and adaptability of marketing in modern times. This concept was widely accepted and is widely used to create marketing strategies.
The 4Cs of marketing are intended to generate a dialogue with the customer, in which the customer is more than a receiver of products. It is no longer enough to give the customer a good product, but we must know what their needs are in order to satisfy them.
The 4 E's of marketing
Christopher Graves was the precursor in 2005 of a new marketing model called the 4 ES, which seeks to adapt the marketing model to the changes introduced in recent years by technological changes, social networks, etc.

7 Types of Marketing that will make your business more visible and more profitable
Si crees es un negocio puede ser rentable aplicando una única strategy de marketing estás muy equivocado, si pretendemos de verdad darle un impulso a la visibilidad de nuestra marca tenemos que aplicar diferentes estrategias por medio de de diferentes canales que es lo que conocemos como estrategia multicanal, para obtener un gran rentabilidad de nuestras empresa.
Marketing en buscadores (SEO and SEM)
Undoubtedly one of the marketing strategies preferred by the vast majority of businesses and that we can divide and categorize into the organic part (SEO) and the advertisement part (SEM).
El primer paso sería establecer una estrategia SEO que te ayudará a obtener visibilidad tu negocio en la principal fuente de tráfico actual (Google).
Here is an example of a basic SEO strategy.
Social media Marketing
Designing a social media strategy will help us create a community of users who follow our brand, and most importantly, to generate more trust and as a mechanism for evangelizing the brand itself.
Debemos realizar una diseño de estrategia acorde un poco a nuestros target y siempre teniendo en cuenta que no debemos obsesionarnos en la cantidad de canales donde va a tener presencia nuestra empresa o negocio si no que en la calidad y la administración acertada de los mismos.
Here I show you how to make a Social Media strategy to attract visitors that convert.
Affiliate Marketing
Es una estrategia de marketing muy efectiva que nos ayudará a obtener más visibilidad y más ventas para nuestro negocio en Internet. El procedimiento y la clave para que funcione es seleccionar y elegir muy bien a nuestros afiliados, es decir seleccionar esos sitios en Internet que verdaderamente disponen mejor conversion y no siempre, y por mi experiencia son aquellos que más tráfico o comunidad disponen.
How to choose these affiliates?
I'm going to give you a series of tips to select your affiliates well:
1.- Never get carried away by the numbers of users or traffic.
2.- Analiza la interacción de comentarios en el Blog, este indicador nos va a mostrar el grado de impacto que dispone de una marca con sus usuarios y por tanto es un buen indicador a la hora de seleccionar un profesional como affiliate.
3.- Analyze the degree of interaction of the brand in social networks.
4.- Analyze the link between the brand and its subscribers.
5.- Analyze the presence of all the channels that may be susceptible to obtain a sale.
Relational marketing
It is one of my preferred marketing strategies and it is none other than connecting with other professionals in order to carry out a deep evangelization of our brand and obtain that these professionals become prescribers and ambassadors of our brand.
Esto es algo que lleva mucho tiempo, es decir es una estrategia de marketing a largo plazo, pero verdaderamente es un gran potenciador de todas nuestras acciones y con la que conseguiremos un scope impresionante.
Now think about the following for a moment. How much time do you spend a day talking to other professionals in your sector?
I dedicate 2 hours a day to it, so that you can visualize a real example of the importance I give to this marketing strategy.
Content Marketing
Los contenidos son necesarios para nuestra estrategia de marketing digital, pero tienes que tener muy claro antes de escribir ningún contents cuál es el objetivos de los mismos y qué estrategias vas a usar para promocionarlos y obtener posicionarlos en Internet.
A very common mistake is the excessive generation of content or to think that if I post more times I will get more traffic and more results, but it is not like that.
En lugar de eso traza una content strategy eficaz, inteligente y con el objetivo de convertir a medio o largo plazo, nunca a corto plazo.
It starts for example:
1.- Estudio de keywords.
2.- Editorial calendar of the blog with 6 months view.
3.- Analyzing the blogs where you could publish a post as a guest.
Email Marketing
El correo electrónico marketing es una herramienta muy potente de loyalty y venta, y con la que lograremos obtener grandes resultados si sabemos utilizarla correctamente.
Una estrategia de correo electrónico marketing no es crear una newsletter automática, ese es un error muy común, piensa en cómo determinar una vinculación cercana con tus suscriptores y que propicie un mejor resultado en la venta.
Also know what are the different stages of sales and sending emails, which ones are more effective and how you can get to generate hundreds of euros in sales in a few hours just by sending an email.
Branding y Personal Branding
You must work 2 things; the brand of the company or business and the brand of all the professionals who work in it, because they will have a direct impact on the business acquiring better customers and increasing sales.
