Marketing derives from the word market, a place where buying and selling of goods and services take place. Marketing is a term used for promotional campaign that aims at building brands, introducing products and services to the customers, building customer base etc.

Advertising is also a term used for promotional campaign for business, products, and services. However, advertising mainly aims at driving sales.

Marketing and Advertising sound almost similar but they slightly differ from one another. You market your business to build brand, you advertise your product to generate sales.

Marketing and Advertising both use the same tactics, the only difference the goals they are trying to achieve. If you pay newspaper to publish about your company that is marketing, and if you publish promotional material about your product that is advertising.

When it comes to the newspaper, that is more of paid advertising unless the business is mentioned in an article. Marketing is the mother word that means to connect to the market. Going door to door in offering the product or service is not advertising but simply a marketing chore just the same as distributing flyers to potential customers

Going door to door is marketing, running a promotional message on newspaper or the internet is advertising.
Giving free samples is also a marketing method, but airing a message about your product on TV or YouTube videos is advertising.

In basic terms, marketing is the process of identifying customer needs and determining how best to meet those needs. In contrast, advertising is the exercise of promoting a company and its products or services through paid channels. In other words, advertising is a component of marketing.

There is a difference let me explain the roles.

An advertising agency is a business to achieve the tasks of advertising with the advertiser the person doing the advertising placing ads on behalf of the client customer. Advertising is generally a paid source of communication with buyer or end users of a service or a product.

Marketing role of marketing managers is to promote businesses, services, products, or brands to a broader audience. Marketers create marketing strategies and develop customer bases generate new business leads, marketing planning, marketing budgeting and analyze trends preparing forecasting industry marketing strategies and build business leads.

The role of a company promoter is to raise awareness or money for a product service or business that benefits by bringing together companies by building partnerships and networking as a role. A promoter helps raise money for investment activity that supports a cause,

Advertising is one aspect of marketing; Although marketing is a holistic approach to talking to customers about your brand, advertising is usually a paid form of messaging designed to encourage sales; Advertisements may be a short term introduction to promote special or ongoing offers, but they usually require a financial investment; And if you know that advertising can help your business but aren't sure where to start, check out the marketing tips below to see which option best suits your needs and budget.

Yes, Marketing is a much broader term than advertising. It is right to say that advertising is a part of marketing.

Marketing is the process of identifying the needs of the customers in your industry and then filing the gap creating a great product and helping it reach to the desired audience. Marketing, as a process starts much before product launches and doesn't end till your product or service is in the market. Marketing has many aspects like market research, finding market opportunities, SEO, getting organic reach, and advertising.

On the other hand, Advertising is a special type of marketing in which a company tries to sell a product to the customers using paid measures like Google ads, Facebook ads, etc. Advertising is most commonly short-timed and always made for a special purpose. The purpose could be a brand reach, more sales, and more traffic to the website.
