Social Marketing by Moses Isaac

About the concept of social marketing, Kotler, known as the father of modern marketing says, “The social marketing concept holds that the organisation’s task is to determine the needs and wants and interests of target markets and to deliver the desired satisfaction more effectively and efficiently than competitors in a way that preserves or enhances the consumer’s and society’s well being”.

The social or societal marketing is thus related to the determination of social needs and wants vis – a – vis subserving their interests which is possible when marketers make possible a fair blending of social and commercial considerations in tune with the holistic concept of management.

It is important here to mention that the concept of social marketing calls upon marketers to balance three considerations in formulating the marketing policies viz, company profits, customer satisfaction and public interest. Traditionally, the companies concentrated on profit computation, then they recognise the long – run importance of satisfying consumer which paved avenues for the marketing concept of late, they are planning for social interests. The social marketing calls for balancing all three considerations.

The perception of social or societal marketing thus in plain words focusses on application of marketing principles keeping in view the public or social interests. Either we market products of goods manufacturing industries or the services product of service generating industries, the social marketing is found relevant. The main philosophy behind the theory is to protect the social interests. Our marketing decisions directly or indirectly are next not to misguide deceive the ultimate consumers as well as the society. An organisation, ofcourse, has the right to product but the products either in short run or in the long run should not be instrumental in polluting the environment and paving ways for socio-cultural confrontation which engineers a foundation for developing emotionally – conflicted and behaviourly – disturbed society.

Since the perception of the society includes in its perview all the living beings, it is very natural that while formulating policies, we also focus our attention on protecting and preserving the interests of domestic and wild animals, birds and other living beings. The marketers have to be careful that their decisions directly or indirectly are not question the existence and well – being of living being in general.

Not illustrated. Excerpt: Out Now Consulting is a marketing agency that provides specialised gay marketing services to large companies by researching gay lifestyles and using the information to develop strategies to target gay and lesbian consumers. Although Out Now is a Dutch company, its origins lie in the formation of an Australian company, Significant Others, which after its establishment in 1992 became known in Australian media over subsequent years for its work as a specialist gay marketing agency.

Activities are now undertaken in the US, UK, Germany, Belgium, France, Ireland and The Netherlands markets. Out Now’s role in the development of gay marketing in various countries has been discussed in the Dutch language edition of ‘Principes van Marketing’ (Principles of Marketing) – a marketing textbook – by Dr. Philip Kotler. The company works in five areas: market research, advertising, training, PR and strategy development and is cited by mainstream media as an authority on gay consumer issues.

BRAND sense: Sensory Secrets Behind the Stuff We Buy By Martin Lindstrom, Foreword by Philip Kotler $27 Did you know that the gratifying smell that accompanies the purchase of a new automobile actually comes from a factory-installed aerosol can containing “new car” aroma? Or that Kellogg’s trademarked “crunch” is generated in sound laboratories? Or that the distinctive click of a just-opened jar of Nescafé freeze-dried coffee, as well as the aroma of the crystals, has been developed in factories over the past decades? Or that many adolescents recognize a pair of Abercrombie & Fitch jeans not by their look or cut but by their fragrance?<P>In perhaps the most creative and authoritative book on how our senses affect our everyday purchasing decisions, global branding guru Martin Lindstrom reveals how the world’s most successful companies and products integrate touch, taste, smell, sight, and sound with startling and sometimes even shocking results. In conjunction with renowned research institution Millward Brown, Lindstrom’s innovative worldwide study unveils how all of us are slaves to our senses — and how, after reading this book, we’ll never be able to see, hear, or touch anything from our running shoes to our own car doors the same way again.<P>An expert on consumer shopping behavior, Lindstrom has helped transform the face of global marketing with more than twenty years of hands-on experience. Firmly grounded in science, and disclosing the secrets of all our favorite brands, <I>Brand Sense</i> shows how we consumers are unwittingly seduced by touch, smell, sound, and more.
