marketing

Pull Pull digital marketing technologies involve
the user having to seek out and directly select (or pull) the content, often via web search. Web site/blogs and streaming media (audio and video) are good examples of this. In each of these examples, users have a specific link (URL) to view the content
![Page 133: Marketing Essentials](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051013/54729d3bb4af9f280f8b463e/html5/thumbnails/133.jpg)
Push Push digital marketing technologies involve both
the marketer (creator of the message) as well as the recipients (the user). Email, SMS, RSS are examples of push digital marketing. In each of these examples, the marketer has to send (push) the messages to the users (subscribers) in order for the message to be received. In the case of RSS, content is actually pulled on a periodic basis (polling), thus simulating a push

Social Marketing Social marketing is the systematic
application of marketing, along with other concepts and techniques, to achieve specific behavioral goals for a social good. Social marketing can be applied to promote merit goods, or to make a society avoid demerit goods and thus to promote society's well being as a whole.
![Page 137: Marketing Essentials](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051013/54729d3bb4af9f280f8b463e/html5/thumbnails/137.jpg)

Viral Marketing Viral marketing and viral advertising,
(buzzwords), refer to marketing techniques that use pre-existing social networks to produce increases in brand awareness or to achieve other marketing objectives (such as product sales) through self-replicating viral processes, analogous to the spread of virus or computer viruses.
![Page 141: Marketing Essentials](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051013/54729d3bb4af9f280f8b463e/html5/thumbnails/141.jpg)

History Among the first to write about viral marketing on
the Internet was media critic Douglas Rushkoff in his 1994 book . The assumption is that if such an advertisement reaches a "susceptible" user, that user will become "infected" (i.e., accept the idea) and will then go on to share the idea with others "infecting them," in the viral analogy's terms. As long as each infected user shares the idea with more than one susceptible user on average

the number of infected users will grow according to a , whose initial segment appears exponential.
