7. Innovative Marketing
It’s a process where a product is marketed to the target
group by the help of ideas and process which were not
used earlier.
It can be done through changes in the product design,
launching the product in unique place, uniquely pricing
the product.
For example, Amazon was the first established online
bookseller. Shortly thereafter, companies like Barnes
and Noble started selling books online as well.

8. Innovative Marketing
Why do we need Marketing innovation:
 Steady decline in sales volume or revenue.
 Steady decline in profitability and return on
investment.
 Products or services offered are essentially
commodities with very little differentiation.
 Price competition dominates sales activity etc.

9. Sense-of-mission marketing
 An organization must define its mission in such away that
it has a broader social context rather than being merely
product oriented.
Example:
The mission of outdoor gear and apparel maker Patagonia might
be, “to sell cloths and outdoor equipment”. Patagonia states its
mission more broadly, as one of producing the highest quality
products while doing the least harm to the environment.

10. Societal Marketing
 Marketing that takes into society’s long term welfare
 The marketing of a social or charitable cause, such as an
environmental campaign.

Example:
Body shop is a cosmetic company found by ANITA
RODDICK. The company uses only plant based
materials for its products. It is against animal testing,
supports community trade, active self esteem,
defend human rights, and overall protection of the
planet. Thus Body shop is following the concept of
