As Marketing Manager I am presenting to the executive team a situation analysis that examines each of the macro-environments that may impact upon and will assist in identifying future promotional and marketing strategy. "We define marketing as an organisational function and a set of processes for creation, communication and delivering value to customers and for managing customer relationships in ways that benefit the organisation". (Kotler et al 2007, p7). Each kind of product has its own target market which are actual and potential buyers (Kotler et al 1998). Marketing managerial processes are in "the analysis, planning, implementation and control of programs designed to create, build and maintain beneficial exchanges with target buyers for the purpose of achieving organisational objectives". (Kotler et al 2003, p13).

(Kotler et al 2003)"A successful firm is one that regularly modifies it marketing mix and strategies to adapt to these changes" (Czinkota et al 2000, p17).
Below I will outline the six macroenvironmental forces, and how they may affect 'Proactive-Partners'.
