The function that is NOT typically considered one of the main functions of marketing is "Financing."
The main functions of marketing generally include:
- Pricing: Setting the price for a product or service based on costs, competition, and customer perceived value.
- Marketing Information Management: Gathering, analyzing, and managing information to support decision-making in marketing.
- Buying: Acquiring goods and services needed for the business.
While financing can play a role in marketing activities, it's not a core marketing function like the others listed.
