Answer:
Advertising is a subset of marketing. Advertising involves informing potential customers of the availability of products, or inducing customers to buy products or services, or promoting a company's name or reputation.
Marketing is the entire area of getting products and services into the market. It includes research to determine what the public wants or needs, what features products should have, how much they should cost. Marketing involves the study of supply and demand, competition, culture, the effectiveness of the media in which goods and services may be promoted, and many other factors. The results of marketing are eventually translated into the way a product or service should be advertised.
