The 4Ps( Product, Price ,Place, Promotion) of the marketing mix is about to determine differentiate, create a new product and sell the product, the 4Rs is consumer-centric marketing. Today is no longer about companies just tell their stories and push consumers to buy; today marketing is about creating conversations and communicating a brand’s message to consumers. Consumers are listing to each other and then they decide what to purchase.

Without 4Ps there is no marketing.4Ps is a machine and 4Rs is an engine of the machine in marketing. They need each other to work properly.
