Editor's Notes
- #3 November, 2007 wrote the blog post “A social marketing manifesto.” talked about the fact that the field had become an echo chamber. Social marketing was becoming this caricature of people doing focus groups and increasing the ‘pros’ and reducing the ‘cons’ to change individual behavior or to sell more products.What as lost was the soul of social marketing (will get back to this point in a minute)And to free that soul is going to take of us thinking a little harder about what we are doing here.
- #4 The Akan people of Ghana use an Adinkra symbol to represent this same idea and one version of it is similar to the eastern symbol of a heart, and another version is that of a bird with its head turned backwards taking an egg off its back. It symbolizes one taking from the past what is good and bringing it into the present in order to make positive progress through the benevolent use of knowledge. Adinkra symbols are used by the Akan people to express proverbs and other philosophical ideas.Wikipedia

- #13 A market is any arrangement in which some people sell a good or service and others buy it (either for money, barter or some other method of exchange). For example, there is a market for shoes and clothes. There are also markets for food, construction supplies, housing permits, legal services, and information. However, for markets to function, they need a range of other players supporting the core buyers and sellers. This total picture is called the “market system.”As the diagram shows, a market (the core function or business activity) needs supporting functions. These functions include:• infrastructure to provide water, electricity, transportation, internet access, and other services;• services that help the business, such as credit, packaging, faxing, and mailing; and• important information, such as competitive prices, international quality standards and research on new production techniques. The market also needs a set of rules and norms that everyone follows. These can be formal laws, such as business regulations or tax rules. Or they can simply be unwritten standards, such as cultural traditions, religious practices or a business association’s by-laws. Different types of actors from government, business and civil society all play different but important roles in any market system.
