Challenges Of Green Marketing
1. New Concept:
it is still a new concept for the masses. The consumer needs to be educated and
made aware of the environmental threats. The new green movements need to
reach the masses and that will take a lot of time and effort.
2. Cost Factor:
Green marketing involves marketing of green products/services, green
technology, green power/energy for which a lot of money has to be spent on
R&D program for their development and subsequent promotional programs
which ultimately may lead to increased costs.
3. Sustainability
Initially the profits are very low since renewable and recyclable products and
green technologies are more expensive. Green marketing will be successful
only in long run
4. High Price Product:
Majority of the consumer are not willing to pay premium price for the green
products.
5. Need for Standardization
It is found that only 5% of the marketing messages from “Green” campaigns
are entirely true and there is a lack of standardization to authenticate these
claims.
