52 Types of
MARKETING
STRATEGIES
In no particular order, we bring you 52 types
of marketing strategies and tactics you can
use to bring new customers to your
business and grow your brand.
Cause Marketing: Find a cause both
your customers and your company
care about. It can create magic for
your business.
Instead of doing the traditional “buy one get one free”
promotion, Toms Shoes built a strong customer
following and reputation for giving back by giving away
a free pair of shoes to someone in need for every shoe
purchase made by their customers.
Relationship Marketing: Focus on building
relationships with you customers instead of
always exclusively trying to sell them
something (called transactional marketing).
Customers who love your brand more will also
spend more money with your brand.
Many traditional retailers have found this
to be true. Walgreens has seen that
customers who buy from all of their
purchasing channels (store, web, mobile,
etc) buy up to six times more than the
average customer that only buys in their
store.
Offline Marketing: Find new ways of
integrating offline marketing with new
technologies to create more engaging
customer experiences.
The Coca-Cola company has create
vending machines that invite
customers to hug them. This
continues to tie the Coca-Cola brand
to the core emotion of happiness,
but also invites customers to
experience the real product offline.
Digital Marketing: Use various digital devices
like smartphones, computers, tablets, or digital
billboards to inform customers and business
partners about your products.
Scarcity Marketing: Where appropriate,
consider making your products accessible
to only a few customers.
Rolls-Royce’s release of their Year of
the Dragon Collection edition of the
Phantom sold quickly. Although the
cost of the car was higher than other
luxury cars, the scarcity drove the
desire and the price.
Word-of-Mouth Marketing: Create authentic
word of mouth for your company and the
products you represent. Word-of-mouth
Marketing is the passing of information from
person to person by oral communication.
Call-to-Action Marketing: Convert more
customers on the web. CTA is a part of
inbound marketing used on websites in the
form of a banner, text, or graphic. The CTA
prompts a customer to click and move into the
conversion funnel from navigating an online
store to making a purchase.
Diversity Marketing: Take into account the
different diversities in a culture in terms of
beliefs, expectations, tastes, and needs. Then,
create a customised marketing plan to target
those consumers effectively.
Undercover Marketing: Hide some of your
products and services’ best features.
Sometimes not telling everyone everything can
become a great source of buzz.
Think of a movie trailer that got you
very excited to go see the movie.
While not showing all the aspects of
the movie, the advertiser can create
enough intrigue to drive viewers to
want to see more.
Transactional Marketing: Encourage
consumers to buy using coupons, discounts,
liquidations, and sales events.
Mass Marketing: Go big! Big businesses
spend big money to understand big data.
(That’s a lot of big!) This gives them insight into
where to place media for their potential
national customers who buy their products and
services.
Walmart is an example of an
effective mass market retailer. As
the number one retailer in the
world, they are very smart about
their mass marketing efforts, often
giving their customers a feeling of
locality and warmth.
Seasonal Marketing: Offer seasonal events.
Seasonal events provide a great way to meet
new consumers and reinforce relationships
with existing customers. Sometimes these
events can be changes of weather or national
holidays.
For a retailer like Hallmark, Mother’
s Day represents a large portion of
their business. By tuning into the
various seasons that are important
to your customers you can become
more relevant in their lives.
PR Marketing: Work with the media to bring
awareness to your products and the benefits
your products offer.
When Apple’s founder Steve Jobs
was alive, Apple held a major press
conference to announce every new
product. This tradition is now
continued by their new Apple CEO
and CMO. When things go wrong, a
good PR marketing strategy is vital
too.
Viral Marketing: Get your customers talking
about your products and services by hitting on
something so great that people can’t help but
share with others. Each time a new product is
created, customers have to be given a reason
to dream about their future purchase.
WestJet expected 800,000 views from its
2013 Christmas video. But in the few
short days since Christmas Miracle went
live, it topped 13 million views by people
in more than 200 countries. It made
news in the U.K., Australia, Japan,
Poland, and Malaysia. The media
attention generated by this viral video is
estimated at over a million dollars.
Online Marketing: Discover ways to leverage
the web. Most online strategic marketing
efforts today are a mix of growth hacking
strategies (A/B testing taken to the max) and a
variety of awareness tactics that drive
attention.
A very effective online marketer is
the insurance company Geico
who simply asks their users to
enter their zip code for an instant
quote on a better savings.
Email Marketing: Collect and organize emails
for potential prospects and customers. Send
them meaningful messages of value, while
respecting their inbox.
Many business-to-business
marketers depend on email
marketing as a primary way to
connect with customers. At industry
tradeshows, IBM consultants can
often be seen exchanging email
information with their prospects.
Evangelism Marketing: Surprise, delight, and
over-serve your customers so they will become
voluntary advocates of your product and
promote its features and benefits on behalf of
your company.
Event Marketing: Create events to drive sales.
Customers often need a reason to shop and
events can often offer the perfect reason.
Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
has become part of American
culture by connecting two events
together that consumers love:
Thanksgiving and shopping.
Outbound Marketing: Let your potential
customers know you exist. By developing a list
of prospects, a company can begin to reach
out to individual target groups in order to find
new customers.
When Microsoft was selling their
accounting software they often used
outbound marketing to identify
potential targets before trying to call
the companies for an in-person
meeting.
Inbound Marketing: Sell customers additional
products and services they currently don’t
have when they contact you.
When business customers
call to check their balances,
the business bank Chase
often takes the opportunity
to ask if they are interest in
a credit line, a 401(k) plan, or
a variety of other services
the bank offers.
Freebie Marketing: Sell items at low rates or
give them away free to boost the sales of
another complementary item or service.
Augmented Marketing: Provide additional
services through innovative offerings and
benefits to your customers to increase their
level of satisfaction. Amazon.com offers their
Prime program to customers who want free 2-
day shipping for a one-time annual fee.
Newsletter Marketing: Write a newsletter that
highlights some of the newsworthy things that
have happened for the organization.
The Motley Fool has been sharing its
investment insights with its
community for many years. These
newsletters create a sense of
inclusion and participation with their
members and has become the
primary driver for its incredible
growth.
Content Marketing: Create and publish
content on various platforms to give
information about a certain products or
services to potential customers and to
influence them, without making a direct sales
pitch.
Tradeshow Marketing: Many products have
to be experienced before being purchased.
There are very few customers that will buy a
new automobile without doing a great deal of
research and test-driving the car first.
Tradeshows are industry gatherings where
customers are invited to come sample all that
the industry has to offer.
To introduce their new lines of products,
Ford Motor Company spends a great deal
of time setting up and operating their
booth at the international consumer auto
shows each year. These auto trade
shows give reporters and consumers a
chance to experience cars first hand.
Article Marketing: If expertise is highly valued
in your industry, articles can offer a powerful
tool to showcase your knowledge and
expertise. Some innovations are shared in the
form of articles or white papers where
technical information needs to be conveyed to
specialized buyers.
Amazon.com has
dedicated part of their
site for white papers
on technical know-
how on cloud
computing. This is a
very sophisticated
form of marketing for
specialized buyers.
Search Marketing: Make Google your
business partner. These days, when
consumers have questions they often don’t ask
their friends; they go straight for Google. Learn
to master search engine optimization
techniques for your web pages.
Direct Mail Marketing: Communicate directly
with the customer, with advertising techniques
that can include text messaging, email,
interactive consumer websites, online display
ads, fliers, catalog distribution, promotional
letters, and outdoor advertising. Direct
marketing messages emphasize a focus on the
customer, data, and accountability.
While there is often a negative side to
this approach (consumers don’t want to
be bothered with a flurry of mail), many
smart companies execute direct
marketing well. Catalog retailer L.L.Bean
created direct marketing programs that
their customers look forward to
receiving.
Niche Marketing: Finding a niche and filling it
could be described as the secret recipe for
growth in over-crowded marketplaces.
The shoe space might seem
crowded, but shoe manufacturing
company Vans noticed an
underserved customer: the skater.
By focusing on this niche market
Vans has developed a thriving
business.
Drip Marketing: A communication strategy
that sends, or “drips,” a pre-written set of
messages to customers or prospects over
time. These messages often take the form of
email marketing, although other media outlets
can also be used as well.
Community Marketing: Cater to the needs
and requirements of your existing customers
(as opposed to using resources to attract new
consumers). This promotes loyalty and product
satisfaction and also gives rise to word of
mouth within your brand’s community.
Social Media Marketing: Engage your
customers through sites like Facebook and
Twitter. Social media provides a unique
opportunity for savvy businesses willing to
invest in customer engagement. Social media
marketing is still in its infancy but it is growing
up rather quickly.
Companies like Southwest Airlines
have departments of over 30 people
whose primary responsibility is to
actively engage with customers on
social media.
Cross-Media Marketing: As the name
suggests, multiple channels like emails, letters,
and web pages are used to give information
about products and services to customers in
the form of cross promotions.
Close Range Marketing: Also known as Proximity
Marketing, this strategy uses bluetooth technology
or Wifi to promote products and services to
customers at close proximity.
Business-to-Business Marketing: B2B
marketing allows businesses to sell products or
services to other companies or organizations
that resell the same products or services, use
them to augment their own products or
services, or use them to support their internal
operations.
International Business Machines
is a well known B2B marketer.
IBM’s business has grown by
taking an intelligent approach to
marketing their products to other
business and governments around
the world.
Promotional Marketing: Designed to
stimulate a customer to take action towards a
buying decision, promotional marketing is a
technique that includes various incentives to
buy, including contests, coupons, and
sampling.
Ambush Marketing: Advertisers associate
with and capitalize on a specific event without
the payment of any sponsorship fee, thereby
bringing down the cost of sponsorship.
B2C Marketing: Convert shoppers into buyers
as aggressively and consistently as possible.
B2C marketers employ merchandising
activities like coupons, displays, store fronts
(both physical and online), and special offers to
entice the target market to buy.
Cloud Marketing: An Internet-based
marketing approach where all marketing
resources and assets are transferred online so
that the respective parties can develop,
modify, utilise, and share them.
Consider how Amazon.com gets customers to buy
digital books, movies, and televisions shows in a digital
library that is accessible in the customers online
accounts or on their digital devices like the Kindle Fire.
Mobile Marketing: Provides customers with
time- and location-sensitive personalized
information that promotes goods, services,
and ideas via mobile devices like smartphones
and tablets.
Alliance Marketing: Two or more businesses
entities come together to pool their resources
to promote and sell a product or service, which
will not only benefit their stakeholders, but also
have a greater impact on the market.
Reverse Marketing: Get your customers to
seek out your business rather than seeking
them. Usually, this is done through traditional
means of advertising, such as television
advertisements, print magazine
advertisements, and online media. Reverse
marketing focuses on the customer
approaching potential sellers who may be able
to offer the desired product.
In 2004, Dove launched the Dove
Campaign for Real Beauty focusing on
the natural beauty of women rather
than advertising their product. This
campaign caused their sales to soar
above $1 Billion and lead Dove to
recreate their brand around this
strategy.
Telemarketing: A method of direct marketing
where a salesperson solicits prospective
customers to buy products or services, either
over the phone or through a subsequent face-
to-face or web-conferencing appointment
scheduled during the call. Telemarketing has
come under fire in recent years, being viewed
as an annoyance by many.
Humanistic Marketing: Human needs are “a
state of felt deprivation.” They distinguish
between physical needs (food, shelter, safety,
clothing), social needs (belonging and
affection), and individual needs (knowledge,
self-expression). Needs are a relatively narrow
set of non-cultural states of felt deprivation.
Free Sample Marketing: Unlike Freebie
Marketing, this is not dependent on
complementary marketing, but rather consists
of giving away a free sample of the product to
influence the consumer to make the purchase.
Database Marketing: A form of direct
marketing using databases of customers or
potential customers to generate personalized
communications in order to promote a product
or service. Database marketing emphasizes
the use of statistical techniques to develop
models of customer behavior, which are then
used to select customers for communications.
Affinity Marketing: Also known as Partnership
Marketing, this technique links complementary
brands, thereby creating strategic partnerships
that benefit both companies. While one adds
value to existing customers by generating more
income, the other builds new customer
relationships.
Permission Marketing: The privilege (not the
right) of delivering anticipated, personal, and
relevant messages to people who actually
want to get them. It recognizes the new power
of the best consumers to ignore marketing,
and that treating people with respect is the
best way to earn their attention.
Loyalty Marketing: Grow and retain existing
customers through incentives. It includes the
use of point of purchase software that tracks
transaction history or other forms of CRM to
get to know individual customers and provide
them with the best service or products.
Personalized Marketing: Sometimes called
One-to-One Marketing, it makes a unique
product offering for each customer. This is
different than differentiation, which tries to
differentiate a product from competing ones.
Nike ID is a popular brand that has
developed a strong business around
this personalized marketing concept.
Guerrilla Marketing: Use unconventional and
inexpensive techniques with imagination, big
crowds, and a surprise element to market your
products and services. A popular example is
flash mobs.
Brand Lover Marketing: Brand Lovers bring
brands to life. For a brand to elevate itself into
the “Cult Brand” category, it has to give
customers a feeling of belonging while
generating strong feelings of love for its
customers. Creating loyalty beyond reason
requires emotional connections that generate
the highest levels of love and a sense of
belonging for your brand.

52 Types of Marketing Strategies

  • 2. In no particular order, we bring you 52 types of marketing strategies and tactics you can use to bring new customers to your business and grow your brand.
  • 3.
  • 4. Cause Marketing: Find a cause both your customers and your company care about. It can create magic for your business.
  • 5. Instead of doing the traditional “buy one get one free” promotion, Toms Shoes built a strong customer following and reputation for giving back by giving away a free pair of shoes to someone in need for every shoe purchase made by their customers.
  • 6. Relationship Marketing: Focus on building relationships with you customers instead of always exclusively trying to sell them something (called transactional marketing). Customers who love your brand more will also spend more money with your brand.
  • 7.
  • 8. Many traditional retailers have found this to be true. Walgreens has seen that customers who buy from all of their purchasing channels (store, web, mobile, etc) buy up to six times more than the average customer that only buys in their store.
  • 9.
  • 10. Offline Marketing: Find new ways of integrating offline marketing with new technologies to create more engaging customer experiences.
  • 11.
  • 12. The Coca-Cola company has create vending machines that invite customers to hug them. This continues to tie the Coca-Cola brand to the core emotion of happiness, but also invites customers to experience the real product offline.
  • 13.
  • 14. Digital Marketing: Use various digital devices like smartphones, computers, tablets, or digital billboards to inform customers and business partners about your products.
  • 15.
  • 16. Scarcity Marketing: Where appropriate, consider making your products accessible to only a few customers.
  • 17. Rolls-Royce’s release of their Year of the Dragon Collection edition of the Phantom sold quickly. Although the cost of the car was higher than other luxury cars, the scarcity drove the desire and the price.
  • 18.
  • 19. Word-of-Mouth Marketing: Create authentic word of mouth for your company and the products you represent. Word-of-mouth Marketing is the passing of information from person to person by oral communication.
  • 20.
  • 21. Call-to-Action Marketing: Convert more customers on the web. CTA is a part of inbound marketing used on websites in the form of a banner, text, or graphic. The CTA prompts a customer to click and move into the conversion funnel from navigating an online store to making a purchase.
  • 22. Diversity Marketing: Take into account the different diversities in a culture in terms of beliefs, expectations, tastes, and needs. Then, create a customised marketing plan to target those consumers effectively.
  • 23.
  • 24. Undercover Marketing: Hide some of your products and services’ best features. Sometimes not telling everyone everything can become a great source of buzz.
  • 25. Think of a movie trailer that got you very excited to go see the movie. While not showing all the aspects of the movie, the advertiser can create enough intrigue to drive viewers to want to see more.
  • 26.
  • 27. Transactional Marketing: Encourage consumers to buy using coupons, discounts, liquidations, and sales events.
  • 28.
  • 29. Mass Marketing: Go big! Big businesses spend big money to understand big data. (That’s a lot of big!) This gives them insight into where to place media for their potential national customers who buy their products and services.
  • 30. Walmart is an example of an effective mass market retailer. As the number one retailer in the world, they are very smart about their mass marketing efforts, often giving their customers a feeling of locality and warmth.
  • 31.
  • 32. Seasonal Marketing: Offer seasonal events. Seasonal events provide a great way to meet new consumers and reinforce relationships with existing customers. Sometimes these events can be changes of weather or national holidays.
  • 33. For a retailer like Hallmark, Mother’ s Day represents a large portion of their business. By tuning into the various seasons that are important to your customers you can become more relevant in their lives.
  • 34.
  • 35. PR Marketing: Work with the media to bring awareness to your products and the benefits your products offer.
  • 36. When Apple’s founder Steve Jobs was alive, Apple held a major press conference to announce every new product. This tradition is now continued by their new Apple CEO and CMO. When things go wrong, a good PR marketing strategy is vital too.
  • 37.
  • 38. Viral Marketing: Get your customers talking about your products and services by hitting on something so great that people can’t help but share with others. Each time a new product is created, customers have to be given a reason to dream about their future purchase.
  • 39. WestJet expected 800,000 views from its 2013 Christmas video. But in the few short days since Christmas Miracle went live, it topped 13 million views by people in more than 200 countries. It made news in the U.K., Australia, Japan, Poland, and Malaysia. The media attention generated by this viral video is estimated at over a million dollars.
  • 40.
  • 41. Online Marketing: Discover ways to leverage the web. Most online strategic marketing efforts today are a mix of growth hacking strategies (A/B testing taken to the max) and a variety of awareness tactics that drive attention.
  • 42. A very effective online marketer is the insurance company Geico who simply asks their users to enter their zip code for an instant quote on a better savings.
  • 43.
  • 44. Email Marketing: Collect and organize emails for potential prospects and customers. Send them meaningful messages of value, while respecting their inbox.
  • 45. Many business-to-business marketers depend on email marketing as a primary way to connect with customers. At industry tradeshows, IBM consultants can often be seen exchanging email information with their prospects.
  • 46.
  • 47. Evangelism Marketing: Surprise, delight, and over-serve your customers so they will become voluntary advocates of your product and promote its features and benefits on behalf of your company.
  • 48.
  • 49. Event Marketing: Create events to drive sales. Customers often need a reason to shop and events can often offer the perfect reason.
  • 50. Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade has become part of American culture by connecting two events together that consumers love: Thanksgiving and shopping.
  • 51.
  • 52. Outbound Marketing: Let your potential customers know you exist. By developing a list of prospects, a company can begin to reach out to individual target groups in order to find new customers.
  • 53. When Microsoft was selling their accounting software they often used outbound marketing to identify potential targets before trying to call the companies for an in-person meeting.
  • 54.
  • 55. Inbound Marketing: Sell customers additional products and services they currently don’t have when they contact you.
  • 56. When business customers call to check their balances, the business bank Chase often takes the opportunity to ask if they are interest in a credit line, a 401(k) plan, or a variety of other services the bank offers.
  • 57. Freebie Marketing: Sell items at low rates or give them away free to boost the sales of another complementary item or service.
  • 58. Augmented Marketing: Provide additional services through innovative offerings and benefits to your customers to increase their level of satisfaction. Amazon.com offers their Prime program to customers who want free 2- day shipping for a one-time annual fee.
  • 59.
  • 60. Newsletter Marketing: Write a newsletter that highlights some of the newsworthy things that have happened for the organization.
  • 61. The Motley Fool has been sharing its investment insights with its community for many years. These newsletters create a sense of inclusion and participation with their members and has become the primary driver for its incredible growth.
  • 62.
  • 63. Content Marketing: Create and publish content on various platforms to give information about a certain products or services to potential customers and to influence them, without making a direct sales pitch.
  • 64.
  • 65. Tradeshow Marketing: Many products have to be experienced before being purchased. There are very few customers that will buy a new automobile without doing a great deal of research and test-driving the car first. Tradeshows are industry gatherings where customers are invited to come sample all that the industry has to offer.
  • 66. To introduce their new lines of products, Ford Motor Company spends a great deal of time setting up and operating their booth at the international consumer auto shows each year. These auto trade shows give reporters and consumers a chance to experience cars first hand.
  • 67.
  • 68. Article Marketing: If expertise is highly valued in your industry, articles can offer a powerful tool to showcase your knowledge and expertise. Some innovations are shared in the form of articles or white papers where technical information needs to be conveyed to specialized buyers.
  • 69. Amazon.com has dedicated part of their site for white papers on technical know- how on cloud computing. This is a very sophisticated form of marketing for specialized buyers.
  • 70. Search Marketing: Make Google your business partner. These days, when consumers have questions they often don’t ask their friends; they go straight for Google. Learn to master search engine optimization techniques for your web pages.
  • 71.
  • 72. Direct Mail Marketing: Communicate directly with the customer, with advertising techniques that can include text messaging, email, interactive consumer websites, online display ads, fliers, catalog distribution, promotional letters, and outdoor advertising. Direct marketing messages emphasize a focus on the customer, data, and accountability.
  • 73. While there is often a negative side to this approach (consumers don’t want to be bothered with a flurry of mail), many smart companies execute direct marketing well. Catalog retailer L.L.Bean created direct marketing programs that their customers look forward to receiving.
  • 74.
  • 75. Niche Marketing: Finding a niche and filling it could be described as the secret recipe for growth in over-crowded marketplaces.
  • 76. The shoe space might seem crowded, but shoe manufacturing company Vans noticed an underserved customer: the skater. By focusing on this niche market Vans has developed a thriving business.
  • 77.
  • 78. Drip Marketing: A communication strategy that sends, or “drips,” a pre-written set of messages to customers or prospects over time. These messages often take the form of email marketing, although other media outlets can also be used as well.
  • 79. Community Marketing: Cater to the needs and requirements of your existing customers (as opposed to using resources to attract new consumers). This promotes loyalty and product satisfaction and also gives rise to word of mouth within your brand’s community.
  • 80.
  • 81. Social Media Marketing: Engage your customers through sites like Facebook and Twitter. Social media provides a unique opportunity for savvy businesses willing to invest in customer engagement. Social media marketing is still in its infancy but it is growing up rather quickly.
  • 82. Companies like Southwest Airlines have departments of over 30 people whose primary responsibility is to actively engage with customers on social media.
  • 83.
  • 84. Cross-Media Marketing: As the name suggests, multiple channels like emails, letters, and web pages are used to give information about products and services to customers in the form of cross promotions.
  • 85. Close Range Marketing: Also known as Proximity Marketing, this strategy uses bluetooth technology or Wifi to promote products and services to customers at close proximity.
  • 86. Business-to-Business Marketing: B2B marketing allows businesses to sell products or services to other companies or organizations that resell the same products or services, use them to augment their own products or services, or use them to support their internal operations.
  • 87. International Business Machines is a well known B2B marketer. IBM’s business has grown by taking an intelligent approach to marketing their products to other business and governments around the world.
  • 88. Promotional Marketing: Designed to stimulate a customer to take action towards a buying decision, promotional marketing is a technique that includes various incentives to buy, including contests, coupons, and sampling.
  • 89.
  • 90. Ambush Marketing: Advertisers associate with and capitalize on a specific event without the payment of any sponsorship fee, thereby bringing down the cost of sponsorship.
  • 91.
  • 92. B2C Marketing: Convert shoppers into buyers as aggressively and consistently as possible. B2C marketers employ merchandising activities like coupons, displays, store fronts (both physical and online), and special offers to entice the target market to buy.
  • 93.
  • 94. Cloud Marketing: An Internet-based marketing approach where all marketing resources and assets are transferred online so that the respective parties can develop, modify, utilise, and share them.
  • 95. Consider how Amazon.com gets customers to buy digital books, movies, and televisions shows in a digital library that is accessible in the customers online accounts or on their digital devices like the Kindle Fire.
  • 96. Mobile Marketing: Provides customers with time- and location-sensitive personalized information that promotes goods, services, and ideas via mobile devices like smartphones and tablets.
  • 97.
  • 98. Alliance Marketing: Two or more businesses entities come together to pool their resources to promote and sell a product or service, which will not only benefit their stakeholders, but also have a greater impact on the market.
  • 99.
  • 100. Reverse Marketing: Get your customers to seek out your business rather than seeking them. Usually, this is done through traditional means of advertising, such as television advertisements, print magazine advertisements, and online media. Reverse marketing focuses on the customer approaching potential sellers who may be able to offer the desired product.
  • 101. In 2004, Dove launched the Dove Campaign for Real Beauty focusing on the natural beauty of women rather than advertising their product. This campaign caused their sales to soar above $1 Billion and lead Dove to recreate their brand around this strategy.
  • 102.
  • 103. Telemarketing: A method of direct marketing where a salesperson solicits prospective customers to buy products or services, either over the phone or through a subsequent face- to-face or web-conferencing appointment scheduled during the call. Telemarketing has come under fire in recent years, being viewed as an annoyance by many.
  • 104. Humanistic Marketing: Human needs are “a state of felt deprivation.” They distinguish between physical needs (food, shelter, safety, clothing), social needs (belonging and affection), and individual needs (knowledge, self-expression). Needs are a relatively narrow set of non-cultural states of felt deprivation.
  • 105.
  • 106. Free Sample Marketing: Unlike Freebie Marketing, this is not dependent on complementary marketing, but rather consists of giving away a free sample of the product to influence the consumer to make the purchase.
  • 107.
  • 108. Database Marketing: A form of direct marketing using databases of customers or potential customers to generate personalized communications in order to promote a product or service. Database marketing emphasizes the use of statistical techniques to develop models of customer behavior, which are then used to select customers for communications.
  • 109.
  • 110. Affinity Marketing: Also known as Partnership Marketing, this technique links complementary brands, thereby creating strategic partnerships that benefit both companies. While one adds value to existing customers by generating more income, the other builds new customer relationships.
  • 111. Permission Marketing: The privilege (not the right) of delivering anticipated, personal, and relevant messages to people who actually want to get them. It recognizes the new power of the best consumers to ignore marketing, and that treating people with respect is the best way to earn their attention.
  • 112. Loyalty Marketing: Grow and retain existing customers through incentives. It includes the use of point of purchase software that tracks transaction history or other forms of CRM to get to know individual customers and provide them with the best service or products.
  • 113.
  • 114. Personalized Marketing: Sometimes called One-to-One Marketing, it makes a unique product offering for each customer. This is different than differentiation, which tries to differentiate a product from competing ones.
  • 115. Nike ID is a popular brand that has developed a strong business around this personalized marketing concept.
  • 116.
  • 117. Guerrilla Marketing: Use unconventional and inexpensive techniques with imagination, big crowds, and a surprise element to market your products and services. A popular example is flash mobs.
  • 118.
  • 119. Brand Lover Marketing: Brand Lovers bring brands to life. For a brand to elevate itself into the “Cult Brand” category, it has to give customers a feeling of belonging while generating strong feelings of love for its customers. Creating loyalty beyond reason requires emotional connections that generate the highest levels of love and a sense of belonging for your brand.
  • 120.
