What is a Marketing Plan?
"The plan helps to establish, direct, and coordinate all marketing programs and activities. Preparing a marketing plan forces an assessment of the marketplace and how it affects the overall business or organization. It also provides a benchmark for later measurement. A marketing plan is also a statement of how the company intends to achieve its business goals. A good marketing plan is also important in attracting investment." (Source: A Dictionary of Marketing)
