I'm a 2nd year University Student currently doing a summer course on Consumer Behaviour.
Although this is a pretty straight forward question, I still would love to explore this question from the perspectives of the forumers here. Perhaps, I could gain better insights of what is really going on out in there.
It's explained that marketing only fulfils existing needs but there's a controversy that marketing also create needs. Would that refer to trend setting? Is marketing the only medium that is responsible of 'creating needs'? Or is the whole creating needs issue is just some biased argument?
Thank you for taking your precious time to read my question.
