Mainstream Marketing Methods

You want to find new ways to connect to your prospect that they will not perceive as aggressive, “spammy” or irrelevant. Email blasting to millions of people does not work. It does not build quality leads or ongoing relationships.

1. Inbound marketing to bring customers to you.

2. Outbound marketing to draw them in through paid advertising

3. Content marketing lead magnets to drive leads (eBooks, Webinars, Reports, Studies and How to-Guides, White Papers, Case Studies, Educational Resource lists, Video Training, Email courses, Free Software Trial, Free Shipping and Discounts etc.) i.e. giving away great free digital stuff!

4. Email marketing: Cold emailing must be targeted with relevant information to avoid being relegated instantly to the trash bin. A spammy email uses tricks to get your attention, is not personalized and its content is unclear. Make sure yours are great to read, not intrusive and deliver relevant information linked to the subject line.

5. Search Engine Optimization (SEO): use relevant keywords

6. Social Media: use strategically. It’s important but is not a source of all leads. You must have a presence but it can be ineffective. Your social media must be able to take customers to your website with multiple links, newsletter sign up and even a call to action.

7. Join a LinkedIn group: Find a large, active, members only group (in your target industry) and start a meaningful discussion and don’t be a pushy marketer. Get involved, track your contribution level, provide some great answers then connect with individuals

Join groups, join conversations, ask for help and pay for lead collection

Deceptive Advertising and Ethics

Use of Deception

- Youtube videos

- Use of humour

- Adult content

Market Research

Some ethical problems in market research are the

- invasion of privacy

- stereotyping. any analysis of real populations needs to make approximations and place individuals into groups. However, if conducted irresponsibly, stereotyping can lead to a variety of ethically undesirable results.

Market Audience

Selective marketing is used to discourage demand from so-called undesirable market sectors or disenfranchise them altogether. Examples of unethical market exclusion are past industry attitudes

Anti-competitive Practices

1. Bait and switch Form is a form of fraud where customers are “baited” by advertising for a product or service at a low price; second, the customers discover that the advertised good is not available and are “switched” to a costlier product. Discounted products sold out.

2. Planned obsolescence is a policy of designing a product with a limited useful life, so it will become unfashionable or no longer functional after a certain period of time and put the consumer under pressure to purchase again.

Using Ethics as a Marketing Tactic

Major corporations fear the damage to their image associated with press revelations of unethical practices. Marketers have been quick to perceive the market’s preference for ethical companies, often moving faster to take advantage of this shift in consumer taste. This results in the propagation of ethics itself as a selling point or a component of a corporate image.

Pricing Ethics

Bid rigging is a form of fraud in which a commercial contract is promised to one party, although for the sake of appearance several other parties also present a bid.

Predatory pricing is the practice of selling a product or service at a very low price, intending to drive competitors out of the market, or create barriers to entry for potential new competitors.
