Read the article and answer the questions:
1. Which of the four Ps are mentioned here?
2. Does the author think the four Ps are a complete definition of marketing?
3. Does the author think that marketing is only for marketers?
Most people and many managers do not understand the role of marketing in modern business.
Marketing is two things. First, it is a strategy and set of techniques to sell an organization’s products or services. This involves choosing target customers and designing a persuasive marketing mix to get them to buy. The mix may include a range of brands, tempting prices, convenient sales outlets and a battery of advertising and promotions. This concept of marketing as selling and persuasion is by far the most popular idea among both managers and the public.
The second, and by far more important concept of marketing, focuses on improving the reality of what is on offer. It is based on
understanding customers’ needs and developing new solutions which are better
than those currently available. Doing this is not a marketing department problem, but one which involves the whole organization.
For example, for Rover to beat Mercedes for the consumer’s choice involves engineering new models, developing lean manufacturing processes, and restructuring its dealer network.
Creating company-wide focus on the customer requires the continual acquisition of new skills and technology. Marketing is rarely effective as a business function. As the chief executive of Hewlett Packard put it: ‘Marketing is too important to leave to the marketing department.’ Such companies understand that everybody’s task is marketing. This concept of marketing offering real customer value is what business is all about.
Match the sentence beginning (1-5) with the correct endings (a-e). The sentences all contain expressions from the third paragraph of the text (2.1.).
1. Farms are now more market-oriented
2. Since the 1980s, Britain has had a much more market-led
3. Many market-led growth businesses,

Language Focus Press release
A. In pairs, discuss the following questions.
1 What is a press release? Who and what is it for?
2 How is a press release delivered?
Баспасөз мақаласын жазу ережелері. (Press Release Writing - Tips to Write a Press Release)
Екпінмен бастау (Start strong): Атауы немесе алғашқы жол айтқыңыз келген нәрсені қысқаша баяндау керек. Жазу барысында "who, what, where, when and why" қосылу керек. Қалған бөлігі қосымша фактілер мен мысалдардан тұруы тиіс.
Баспаға жеңіл болуы тиіс (Make it easy for the media): Кейбір басылым агенттіктері сіздің баспасөз мақалаңызға өзгерістер енгізуі немесе қысқартуы мүмкін. Егер көбірек ақпаратты мұқият баяндасаңыз баспасөздің жұмысын азайтасыз.
Оқырман сияқты ойлау (Think like the reader): Сіздің баспа мақалаңыз оқырманның ойымен сәйкес келуі тиіс. Өзіңізді оқырманның орнына қойып көріңіз. Сіз мұндай баспасөз мақаласын өзіңіз оқисыз ба?
Орнымен қолдану (Make it relevant): Өзіңіз әңгімелегіңіз келген мәселеге шынайы өмірден алынған мысалдар беруге тырысыңыз. Беретін ақпаратыңыздың неліктен маңызды екендігін және оқырманға қандай пайдасы бар екендігін көрсету керек. Егер сіздің баспа мақалаңыз қызықтыратын болмаса оны ешкім оқымайды.
Жазған нәрсеңізді шынайы фактілерге негіздеу (Support your story with real facts): Фактілер сіздің көзқарасыңызды маңызды етеді және журналистке сіздің ізденіс жұмысыңызды көрсетеді. Егер сіз фактілерді басқа жақтан алсаңыз, оған нұсқау бересіз. Жазған нәрсеңізде асыра сілтеуге және қосып айтуға жол бермеңіз. Ешқашан әсірелемеңіз. Мазмұн шындыққа жанаспаған жағдайда мақаланы түсінікті етіп жеңілдетпесеңіз оқырманның сенімін жоғалтасыз.
Қысқаша беру (Be concise): Тым артық сын есімдерді, қажетсіз клишелерді қолданудан бас тартыңыз. Басты нәрсеге назар аударыңыз және айтатын ойыңызды тура беріңіз.
Өндірістік жаргонды қолданбау (Avoid industry jargon): Сіздің мақалаңызды түсіну журналист үшін қиын болса, оның қабылдануы да қиынға түседі. Егер сіз мақалаңызды Интернеттен іздеуге берсеңіз өнеркәсіптік терминологияның қолдануды шектегеніңіз дұрыс болады.
Лепті сөздерден бас тарту. (Avoid exclamation points): Жалынды сөздерді жиі қолдану сенімсіздік тудырады себебі ол әсіреленген жарнама тәрізді болады. Алайда сіз лепті сөйлемдерді қолданғыңыз келсе бірнешеуін емес тек біреуін ғана қолданыңыз!!!
Рұқсат алу (Get permission): Компаниялар өз аттары мен имидждері туралы сақтық жасауы мүмкін. Ақпаратты немесе ресми адамдардың сөзін беруде жазбаша рұқсат алу қажет.
Компанияның ақпаратын қоса беру (Include company information): Пресс-релиз (press release) компания қайда орналасқан, қандай өнім шығарады немесе қызмет көрсетеді және қысқаша тарихы сияқты сіздің компанияңызды қысқаша суреттеумен аяқталуы тиіс. Егер бірнеше компания болса олардың барлығы туралы ақпаратты бересіз. Сонымен қатар әрбір компанияның өкілінің телефон номері мен e-mail байланыс ақпараттарын беру керек.
