Environmental Scanning             Various studies conducted in the recent past, it has come to light that most of the marketing activities of multiple firms are subject to external and internal factors. It has also been proven that some elements tend to control the firms while others are not. For this reason, organisations are forced to adapt to such environments to avoid being affected by such issues.

The internal environment comprises the specifics of the firm such as the employees, owners, investments such as machines and materials among others. The external environment, on the other hand, refers to the micro and macro factors. Therefore, it is possible to conclude that forces and actors outside marketing affect the management abilities and their ability to maintain a successful and positive relationship with the market. This paper seeks to address the different management functions for the…
