Without any marketing efforts, consumers will have difficulty learning about producers' offerings (A). This lack of information will make it difficult for producers to accurately estimate demand for their products (B). Consumers will also have difficulty comparing the value of different producers' offerings without any advertising or other marketing efforts (C). Finally, without any information about consumer demand, producers will have difficulty determining where and when to ship their products (D). Therefore, all of these factors will be affected by the absence of marketing efforts.
