MARKETING COURSE

Marketing is a discipline that gives an opportunity to examine how the intricacies of design, promotion, and branding influence on the selling growth of goods. Consumers make purchases based on how products and services are packaged. The ability to influence the decision and buying habits is a useful skill, even outside of a conventional marketing role.

 

Marketing Course lasts for 2 years for getting a Bachelor’s degree.
