Advertising & Social Good: A Perfect Marriage or a Recipe for Disaster

2,711 views

Published on

In the past several years, the advertising/marketing industry has undergone huge changes that have created an array of challenges and opportunities: The use of “big data” to target consumers has raised concerns about the collection and use of personal information. The massive growth of “native advertising,” in which ads appear as content, has triggered questions about whether consumers can truly trust brands. Social media and digital advances have given companies direct connections to their consumers, with the power to gain insights and build loyalty. New advertising approaches appealing to consumers’ core values and passions have given companies an opportunity to engage consumers on a deeper and more meaningful level. Those marketers who are using creative power to share messages related to social, environmental, philanthropic and cultural issues are building strong brands for the long-haul and are having a positive influence on the world around us. What is becoming absolutely true is there can be a powerful relationship between corporate responsibility and effective advertising. This presentation centers on the opportunities for advertisers and marketing directors to embrace CSR and gain the incredible benefits derived from a more authentic and meaningful relationship with their customers.
