I stole this from this Months FHM Mag' and thought of you lot. This is a decent way to explain the types of marketing... in a funny way too.
You see a hot girl at a party and decide to walk up to her. You say, "I'm incredible in bed!" - That's direct marketing.
You see a hot girl at a party with a bunch of friends, but you get one of your friends to talk to her and tell her that you're incredible in bed. - That's advertising.
You see a hot girl at a party, you walk up to her, get her number, then phone her the next day to tell her "you're incredible in bed!". - That's telesales marketing.
You see a hot girl at a party, you walk up to her, offer to pour her a drink, give her a ride home after the party, then open the front door for her. Then slip in the fact that - you're incredible in bed. - That's public relations.
You see a hot girl at a party, but she walks up to you and whisper in your ear "I hear you're fantastic in bed" - That's brand recognition.
Obviously there are other forms of marketing but don't always tackle one avenue. be sure you are aiming for all types of 'pushing your brand'. And by brand I mean your name, your work etc. Not just some slogan on your cards.
