ETHICAL ISSUES IN GLOBAL MARKETING

Products to poor consumersExample: According to a new Oxford University study, 55 percent of India’s population of 1.1 billion, or 645 million people, are living in poverty. So, develop low-cost products that more people can use.  [India Travel Statistics (2011)]Corporate social responsibilitiesExample: environment protectionIndia had made environment protection one of its basic national policies. Aussi-Lifestyle should develop recycle bags and luggage. - Approval from India Pollution control board)

ETHICAL ISSUES IN OUR MARKETING

Because of market globalization, firms’

marketing activities strongly influence the buy decisions of consumers worldwide.

Develop and align products and services to create greater value

for society.Shareholders values

A business cannot claim to be ethical firm if it ignores unethical practices by its suppliers. For Example: Use of child labour and forced labour Violation of the basic rights of workers Production in sweatshops Ignoring health, safety and environmental standards

ETHICAL ISSUES IN OUR MARKETING

• Differentiate product according to market segmentation consider marketing mix. & customer orientated products

• Maintain Price strategy and techniques according to market adaptation globally and internationally

• Clear Distribution channel, Marketing Promotion activates according to market adaptation

• Corporate responsibilities will add value to branding and reputation for product.
