How marketing is important in business

Marketing is important effort by which a product or service is introduced and promoted to relevent customers. Without marketing, your business may offer the best products or services in your industry, but none of your relevant customers would know about it. The overall marketing process covers advertising, public relations, promotions and sales.

The reason that marketing is so important to businesses is that it is how you get customers. Clearly nobody is going to walk into your office and ask for whatever it is that you are selling unless they know that you are there and what you are selling

It does not matter whether your business is service or product based, you need to have a clear view of :

1. Who your current customers are.

2. Who your potential customers could be.

3. The reasons anyone would want to buy your product or services and why they would pay the price you are asking.

4. How you should communicate those benefits to effectively keep your customers engaged.

5. The best mix of marketing activity to keep your service or product animated.

6. How you can most effectively spend your marketing dollar by segment.

7. How you can best monitor your marketing spend.

Now marketing is such a fabulous part of business because actually it's the whole of your business: 

• It's what you are selling. 
• How you are selling it. 
• To whom you are selling it. 
• And at what price. 

Marketing is important in building customer relationships as well as creating product awareness.

Dengue Symptoms, Causes,Treatment and Prevention

Now a days Dengue becomes a big disease in metro cities. Many people are suffering with this disease so I have decided to write about it so that you guys can read it and with the help of it you can prevent of yourself with this disease. Dengue (pronounced DENG-gay) can affect anyone but tends to be more severe in people with compromised immune systems.

Some facts regarding Dengue:

1. Dengue fever is a disease caused by a family of viruses that are transmitted by mosquitoes. The bite of one infected mosquito can result in infection.

2. When the Risk of being bitten highest: The risk of being bitten is highest during the early morning, several hours after daybreak, and in the late afternoon before sunset. However, mosquitoes may feed at any time during the day.

3. Where Aedes aegypti mosquito Find out: Aedes mosquitoes typically live indoors and are often found in dark, cool places such as in closets, under beds, behind curtains, and in bathrooms. Travelers should be advised to use insecticides to get rid of mosquitoes in these areas and to select accommodations with well-screened windows or air conditioning when possible

4. Symptoms of Dengue: Headache, fever, exhaustion, severe joint and muscle pain, swollen glands (lymphadenopathy), and rash. The presence (the "dengue triad") of fever, rash, and headache (and other pains) is particularly characteristic of dengue fever.

5. Because dengue fever is caused by a virus, there is no specific medicine or antibiotic to treat it. For typical dengue fever, the treatment is purely concerned with relief of the symptoms. Just take water as more as you can take, need to check out your BP and platelates regularly and take drip if possible.

6. The acute phase of the illness with fever and myalgias lasts about one to two weeks.

7. There is currently no vaccine available for dengue fever. To prevent mosquito bites, wear long pants and long sleeves. For personal protection, use mosquito repellant sprays that contain DEET when visiting places where dengue is endemic.

What is dengue hemorrhagic fever?

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a specific syndrome that tends to affect children under 10 years of age. It causesabdominal pain, hemorrhage (bleeding), and circulatory collapse (shock). DHF is also called Philippine, Thai, or Southeast Asian hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome.

DHF starts abruptly with high continuous fever and headache. There are respiratory and intestinal symptoms with sore throat, cough, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Shock occurs two to six days after the start of symptoms with sudden collapse, cool, clammy extremities (the trunk is often warm), weak pulse, and blueness around the mouth (circumoral cyanosis).

In DHF, there is bleeding with easy bruising, blood spots in the skin (petechiae), spitting up blood (hematemesis), blood in the stool (melena), bleeding gums, and nosebleeds(epistaxis). Pneumonia is common, and inflammation of the heart (myocarditis) may be present.
