Frequently Asked Questions
The core focus of this study is understanding marketing as a fundamental social and managerial process rather than just advertising. It explores how individuals and groups obtain what they need and want by creating and exchanging products and value. For students at Lumbini Banijya Campus and across Nepal, it reframes marketing as the art of identifying human needs and fulfilling them to create lasting bonds and a win-win scenario for both the business and the consumer.
Chapter 1 defines marketing as a blueprint for how value moves through society, stripping away dry academic layers to reveal the engine of the economy. It describes marketing as a social and managerial process where value exchange occurs to satisfy human needs and wants. Instead of focusing solely on loud advertisements, the curriculum emphasizes the quiet, fundamental act of building relationships and understanding the specific requirements of a target audience to ensure long-term success.
Value exchange is vital because it explains why some brands become household names in Nepal while others fail quickly. By focusing on the exchange of products and value, businesses can move beyond simple selling to create meaningful connections. This approach is essential for MBS students who need to understand that marketing is rooted in the profound act of fulfilling human needs, much like a local tea shop owner who anticipates a customer's specific preferences to build loyalty.
