Theories in Communication
social marketing theory
Social marketing theory is defined as "the use of marketing principles and techniques to influence a target audience to voluntarily accept, reject, modify or abandon a behavior for the benefit of individuals, groups or society as a whole" (Kotler, Roberto, Lee) . This form of marketing is used especially in the area of health awareness, but also for not-for-profits and in order to spread political messages. It is a way of viewing non-government organizations as businesses, insofar as they need to correctly identify the market they want to target with their message (the NGO equivalent of a product), spread their message as efficiently and far as they can, and, in most cases, also raise money through grants or public donations. Social marketing theory aims to increase the effectiveness of the mass media generated content through understanding and manipulating a combination of societal and psychological factors.
