Difference between branding and marketing


Branding is related with brand and marketing is related with market. Amazon is a brand and when you hear this word the thoughts that come in your minds are result of branding and marketing. Marketing and branding both are interrelated and you cannot separate them because marketing cannot exist without branding and branding cannot exist without marketing.
Marketing is a broader term and branding is only one part of marketing. basically marketing is related with four Ps or four Cs. Objective of marketing is to create sale while objective of branding is to create a positive image in consumer`s mind.
In branding these activities are mainly important creating brand, expanding brand and exploiting brand. While in marketing all activities of sales, advertising, pricing and distribution are involved.
Branding is more related with logo, color, shape etc. while marketing is telling the public about the brand.
Brand is a perception while marketing markets and manages that perception. Marketing creates awareness of brand in consumer`s mind. Marketing promote your brand in market.
In short branding is creating your image while marketing is related with the activities that that cause the public to want to know more about what you sell.

Positive Mental Attitude





Attitude is a very small thing, but, hey, it has many advantages. Behind every successful man there is the same secret and that is the positive mental attitude.A man of negative attitudes lives in a negative world while a man of positive attitude lives in a positive world. It would not be an exaggeration that attitude is the key to the success. Attitude formation starts the day a baby is born into the world. I would like to tell a story here. It was a monster in a village and he used to eat villagers everyday. Because he was bigger in size so it was difficult to kill him. A child name of Goliath killed him because of his positive mental attitude. When villagers asked him how did he kill such a big giant then he replied he was not big to hit but he was big to miss and rest is the history.

Attitude change is only possible if we are able to change our thoughts and reactions to everything around . Before going into the ring Mohammad Ali used to say, “I am the greatest”. He used to say this because he wanted to make positive mental attitude and rest is the history.
.
If you lack a positive attitude inside you, then it may be termed as you being a pessimist. Your attitude towards life, environment, people, things, events and even yourself determines the quality of life you are going to have.

Selling service is tougher than selling goods



Service being intangible, marketer needs to put on more efforts as he cannot show the things that he is marketing. Being intangible, services cannot be touched or seen.
Because of following characteristics selling intangibles services are tougher than selling goods:
1. Because of intangible character of services marketer faces these difficulties – sampling difficult, difficult to judge in advance, not possible to have patent or copyright. Hence intangibles are relatively difficult to promote. For example, in contrast to soap where you can immediately check its benefits, there is no way to do so in the case of teachers because teaching is an intangible service.
2. Because of inseparability services require presence of performer, direct sale, and also face difficulties because of limited scale of operations and geographically limited market. For example, a plumber and a beautician has to be physically present to provide the services.
3. Heterogeneity characteristics of services makes standardization very difficult task to achieve. For example, the doctor who gave you his complete attention in his last visit may behave a little different in the next time.
4. Services cannot be stored and are perishable. Apart from this most services may face fluctuating demand. For example, there is a peak demand time for busses in morning and evening.
5. In the case of services, customers have access to but not ownership of them.
Thus because of above characteristics of services the marketer must try to convince the customer that the services, they are providing are `the best`.
