Solution
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is the responsibility of an organization towards the
welfare and interests of the society in which it operates while maintaining a healthy bottom-line
of profits. Responsible, sustainable and transparent business models help build brand and
reputation as well as help strengthen the community and therefore the marketplace. Business
ethics examines ethical principles and moral or ethical problems that arise in a business
environment. Business ethics reflects the philosophy of business, one of whose aims is to
determine the fundamental purposes of a company. If a company\'s purpose is to maximize
shareholder returns, then sacrificing profits to other concerns is a violation of its fiduciary
responsibility.
The principles of right and wrong that guide an individual in making decisions are called ethics.
As ethics are about moral values, cultural assessments can be extremely valuable when assessing
the moral values in an organization. The message from businesses today is clear—employees
must be well trained and capable of making ethical decisions to protect the business from legal
liability and to maximize long-term profits.

and services, and a desire to improve the lives of individuals here and around the globe. A few
companies stand out as prime examples of how social responsibility can be productively coupled
with sound strategies to advance goodwill, while building sustainable and impressive businesses.

to the cause as a member of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition. Since the brand\'s start at a
crafts fair selling $200 worth of honey, the company has since expanded to candles, lip balm and
now more than 150 products. In 2009, revenue topped $250 million.

SEO in the AI Era - Trust, Quality and Content Discovery - Andy CrestodinaDigiMarCon - Digital Marketing, Media and Advertising Conferences & Exhibitions
We’ve entered a new era in digital. Search and AI are colliding, in more ways than one. And they all have major implications for marketers.
• SEOs now use AI to optimize content.
• Google now uses AI to generate answers.
• Users are skipping search completely. They can now use AI to get answers. So AI has changed everything …or maybe not. Our audience hasn’t changed. Their information needs haven’t changed. Their perception of quality hasn’t changed. In reality, the most important things haven’t changed at all. In this session, you’ll learn the impact of AI. And you’ll learn ways that AI can make us better at the classic challenges: getting discovered, connecting through content and staying top of mind with the people who matter most. We’ll use timely tools to rebuild timeless foundations. We’ll do better basics, but with the most advanced techniques. Andy will share a set of frameworks, prompts and techniques for better digital basics, using the latest tools of today. And in the end, Andy will consider - in a brief glimpse - what might be the biggest change of all, and how to expand your footprint in the new digital landscape.

Ethics in Marketing
- 2. Following ethical marketing practices is important in today’s world.
- 3. However, not all companies feel a prick in their conscience for going against these responsibilities.
- 4. Some of the important ethical marketing issues today include: ØImpact on the environment ØChild labor practices ØFalse advertising ØMisuse of company funds & resources
- 5. Environmental Impact Recycling Using eco-friendly processes Reducing waste Greenwashing
- 6. Child Labor Practices Some companies hide the fact that they use child labor to produce some of their products.
- 7. False Advertising False advertising is when a company misrepresents and misleads the consumer about their product.
- 8. Misusing Company Funds & Resources Company executives might secretly be funneling company resources or money into unethical or even illegal channels.
- 9. Some companies try to “atone” for any number of unethical pursuits by practicing Corporate Social Responsibility, which is engaging in some ethical activities to make up for unethical parts for the sake of a positive image.
- 10. Conclusion When companies manipulate the public into believing they follow standard ethical guidelines but instead violate ethical principles, it does more harm than good in the long run. Consumers can do their part by researching companies and supporting those who lift themselves to a higher standard. Businesses should thoroughly evaluate the long-term effects of their practices and determine the best path to follow from a combined ethics, financial, business, and marketing perspective.
