The marketing concept as a management orientation according to Philip kofler holds that the key to achieving organization goal is imbibed in the organization determining the need and wants of target market undercutting  itself to delivering the desired  satisfaction more effecting and efficiently than its competitors.  Bank marketing therefore could be described as the process through which banks affect and keep customers by designing  and offering service and inventions that make banking advantages to those customers.
