Origins of Social Marketing
* Kotler and Zaltman (1971): application of marketing to solution of social and health problems, and “to sell brotherhood like soap” (Wiebe, 1951) * We can use marketing to make people choose one thing from hundreds, so why can’t we sell “brotherhood like soap” * Planned social change which involves an exchange relationship between the client and change agent (Niehoff, 1966)
Definition of Socially Responsible Marketing: * Harnesses desirable social causes, such as the environment and consumerism, to advance the interests of a commercial organisation * RED campaign works with Global Fund (non-profit organisation) with each of their partners (Gap, Apple etc.) as the profiting companies behind them
