At first lets talk about what marketing goals are. These goals can be attained by numerous activities which I am going to let you figure out. Marketing can be described as an activity with these goals:
- Make sure the product is aligned with the market
- Research the target audience
- Reach the target audience for a product/service
- Strategic messaging to create awareness

PRODUCT MARKET ALIGNMENT:
Goal: Make sure that the product that you are building is catering to market. Don't build something that doesn't have a market. This is done by market research surveys etc.
TARGET RESEARCH:
