Business begins with a product or service. No matter how efficiently a product is manufactured, how effectively an operation is managed, or how accurately those operations may be accounted for, no business can be successful without a sale. The development, promotion, and sale of products/service drive successful businesses, large or small. This exposure generates career opportunities in each area of marketing and effectively equips you for managerial and executive positions in the field.
