Ethical marketing and ethics in advertisingMary Titova
"What is the difference between unethical and ethical advertising? Unethical advertising uses falsehoods to deceive the public; ethical advertising uses truth to deceive the public."
It’s not a secret that advertisers often show you the embellished information about their products. So they tell the truth -- but not always the Whole Truth. When you go on a job interview or a first date, you don't assume a false identity - but you probably don't make a full disclosure either. But there are questions how much truth can advertisers conceal and where this ethical advertising ends and unethical advertising begins?
Firstly, let’s define what ethical marketing and ethical advertising really mean.
Ethical marketing is a process through which companies generate customer interest by incorporating social and environmental considerations in products.
Ethical advertising is advertising that is truthful, not offended and is correct in terms of morality and ethics.
There are different unethical advertisings, like deceptive, false, fake advertising, advertising, that doesn’t match public standards, advertising to children and many others.
To illustrate advertising, that doesn’t match public standards, here is the ad for jeans plays off famous Last Supper. This ad had to be withdrawn in Italy and Spain because the predominately Catholic public did not like it. It is ethically wrong, when an ad so clearly violates public standards.
The claims in some ads are not only often outrageous but frequently completely false. For example, In this picture it is easily seen that the advertisement of bigMAC is different from what it actually looks like.
These are the examples of unethical advertising. This OLDTIMER advertisement is rather funny and unethical because some people will have bad feelings about going inside a human body.
There is familiar advertising by Jobsintown. And this is totally unethical. As for me, I have really-really bad feeling about going inside this ad.
It should be said a few words about Fake advertising, too. I’m sure, everyone here knows McDonald’s, but this advertisement is about a MaDonal. Using competitors brand and consumers’ associations is also unethical.
In conclusion it must be said, that ethics in advertising is really important to protect consumers. There are many unethical advertisings in modern business world, and they should be under control. And of course, advertising isn’t unethical if it’s done in right way in terms of morality and ethics.
Thank you

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.

Ethics in Marketing
1.
2. • The word ethics is derived from the Greek word
“Ethikos” which means custom or character.
“Our concern for good behaviour. We feel an
obligation to consider not only our own personal
well being but also that of others”.
Albert Schweitzer
3. Marketing consist of the performance of
business activities that direct the flow of goods and
services from producer to consumer.
A number of distinct function is coming under
this broad characterization which include:
1) Product Development
2) Distribution
3) Pricing
4) Promotion
5) Sales
4. • “Marketing is a societal process by which
individuals and groups obtain what they
need and want through creating, offering
and freely exchanging products and services
of value with others”
Philip Kotler
5. • Marketing ethics addresses principles and standards that define
acceptable conduct in the market place. Marketing usually occurs
in the context of an organization, and unethical activities usually
develop from the pressure to meet performance objectives. Some
obvious ethical issues in marketing involves clear cut attempts to
deceive or take advantage of a situation
6. • The law and regulations are generally designed to
protect the consumer from unethical practices by
businesses
• These law and regulations recognizes that consumers
have certain basic rights in the market place
• Each marketer must relay on his/her own value system
to determine what is and is not ethical
7. • AMA has established a codes of ethics to provide
guidelines for ethical conduct. It says, in part, that,
“Marketers shall uphold and advance the
integrity, honour and dignity of the
marketing profession, by being honest in
serving consumers, clients, employees,
suppliers, distributors, and the public.”
8. • Honesty: to be truthful and forthright in our dealings with
customers and stakeholders.
• Responsibility: to accept the consequences of our marketing
decisions and strategies.
• Fairness: to try to balance justly the needs of the buyer with the
interests of the seller.
• Respect: to acknowledge the basic human dignity of all
stakeholders.
9. • Openness: to create transparency in
our marketing operations.
• Citizenship: to fulfill the economic,
legal and societal responsibilities that
serve stakeholders in a strategic manner.
10. I. CRITICISM OF THE FORMER :
Promotion of morally ‘bad’ values such as the
excessive consumption of private rather than public
goods and services comes under this.
II. CRITICISM OF SPECIFIC PRACTICES :
These are frequently based on assumptions drawn
from system level critiques. The criticism are:
11. • Advertisement : that gives false information,
penetrating to wrong values. Eg: Indulekha
• Personal selling : the ethics of the relationship
of sales people to customer
• Packaging and labelling practices :
⊗irregularities of package size and shape
⊗ecological issues
⊗Pricing practices
⊗Provision of intelligible labelling information
12. • Step 1: Identifying the decision options and the likely consequences of
each.
• Step 2: Identifying all individuals and organizations that will be +vely or-
vely affected by the consequences of each option
• Step 3: Estimating the-ve impacts and +ve impacts of each option from
the point of view of each affected party, taking into consideration their
particular interest and needs.
• Step 4: Ranking the cost and benefits of each option and making a
decision
13. Most advertisements are socially responsible
Some advertisements are willfully misinformed the public
Deceptive Advertising: Advertising that give false info:
Corrective Advertising: company publicly correct a false
impression created by past advertising
14. • Children are an important marketing target for certain
products. Because their knowledge about products, the
media, and selling strategies is usually not as well
developed as that of adults, children are likely to be more
vulnerable to psychological appeals and strong images.
15. • False and misleading presentation of facts.
• Deliberate omitting of required information.
• Implying a benefit that hardly exists.
• Trade puffing and exaggerations
• Open criticism of competitors.
16. • Pricing practices are regulated by the Govt. more
forcefully than other areas of the marketing mix in
that pricing illegalities are made explicit in Act such as;
• FTC Act
• Robinson- Patman Act.
17.
18. • Price Discrimination: It can be unethical if similar buyers
are charged different prices for the same based on their
ability to pay.
• Price fixing: It is an agreement among firms in an industry
to set up prices at certain levels. Two types of price fixing:
1. Horizontal price fixing
2. vertical price fixing
