The first section introduces core concepts and examines the three stages of the Strategic Marketing Framework: situation analysis, strategy formulation, and marketing execution. The second section of the book is comprised of Notes to highlight tools related to customer assessment, competitive practices, and marketing mix tactics that support the stages of strategic marketing.
