Jai Shree Krishna
Amitji this topic has most certainly been discussed. However, teh most simple answer is...
Pushtimarg = The Path of Grace.
where in Pushti = Grace (Grace of Shree Thakorji, Krupa, Anugraha etc.)
and Marg = Path.

puahtimarg
when we plant the seeds in the ground than we put some fertilizer,water,sunlight etc and than we nourish that plant and keep watch on the plant and protect it from other animals and persons so that it can grow and can give the fruits.
so pust is the same meaning as of growing the seeds in to plant.
so pushtimarg means when person that is devi jeev when comes in contact with vallabah or vaishanava he remembers his previous life and so he takes bramasaband from vallabahkul balak. so seed of bhakti beej is planted in his body and soul. and after that doing thakurji sewa and satsang and kirtans and coming in contact with vaishanavas and taidasiye vaishanava his bhakti that is love for thakurji increases and finally he reaches the ultimate goal of life that is leela darshan of thakurji.
so here pushtimarg is same that is of growing seed and puting fertilizer,water,sunlight etc etc and protecting it from others.
here in pushtimarg also you have to protect your bhava of thakurji from dusang andit is like nika rakh yashoda maya that means save your thakurji from evil clutches so that your thakurji gives you darshan that is kumbhandas was talking to govardhannathji at time mansi rajs came and thakurji disappear.
