Overview:
The marketing mix is a key set of tools within the microenvironment, which helps an organization produce the response it wants from their target market. It's made of up the 4Ps, which include product, price, place, and promotion. When these four factors are aligned properly, they play an important role because it encompasses everything an organization can do to deliver customer value and engage consumers.
