There is a debate in marketing on the question of whether or not marketing creates or satisfies consumers needs. Marketing has often been defined in terms of satisfying customers wants and needs and some critics maintain that marketing goes beyond that and creates needs and wants that did not exist before. According to these critics, marketers encourage consumers to spend more money than they should on goods and services they really do not need. Consider the broad shifts in marketing. Are there any themes that emerge in these shifts? Can they be related to the major societal forces? Which force has contributed to which shift.

Your response must be in APA format where appropriate. You will need to include in-text citations and a references list for external references used in supporting your points for this question. You should have no fewer than 7 references for your response to this particular question.

You have been given a role as a new Marketing Executive in a traditional company called TradCo. They make all sorts of products which they sell on to OEMs, from nuts and bolts, to fully manufactured washing machines, cookers and even ships! This they have done for their clients who then brand and sell them on. Now, as part of their growth strategy, they are proposing to manufacture and then sell products under their own name to customers and consumers

They have never taken marketing very seriously, nor have they grown fast either in recent years. They are a company dominated by sales, finance and engineering and to say they dont understand or even like marketing would be an understatement.

This is going to have to change if TradCos strategy is to work.

Your first task is to prepare a report, 1,250 words in length – (excluding appendices) – for your CEO. In this report you need to outline a compelling case for why TradCo., needs to take marketing seriously in the future. Your boss would like to see examples or one example in detail from a company (or companies) who are  in your view leaders in employing marketing as a tool for business growth, and also, to appease doubters, any academic links to theories and concepts will help with more technically minded people.

You should target 500-700 words. The reading materials are attached to answer the following questions:
1- Read US Programmatic Fees 2019.  What are these fees and what challenges do they create for advertisers?
2- What are the primary changes required by the GDPR and CCPA?  What consequence, if any, will the CCPA have on NA advertising?
