Craig Lefebvre - Social Marketing and Social Change: Strategies and Tools for improving on Health, Well-Being and the Environment

Craig Lefebvre - Social Marketing and Social Change: Strategies and Tools for improving on Health, Well-Being and the Environment | Social marketing. Health promotion | Scoop.it

How can we facilitate more effective, efficient, equitable and sustainable solutions to the problems that confound our communities and world? Social marketing guru R. Craig LeFebvre weaves together multi-level theories of change, research and case studies to explain and illustrate the development of social marketing to address some of society’s most vexing problems. The result is a people-centered approach that relies on insight and empathy as much as on data for the inspiration, design and management of programs that strive for changes for good. This text is ideal for students and professionals in health, nonprofit, business, social services, and other areas.

“It’s about marketing; no it’s about the social” | Marketing in the Public Sector | Social marketing. Health promotion | Scoop.it

When I was first asked to speak about this topic my initial reaction was… are they kidding? Is this for real? I always believed that social marketing was about the marketing of social issues and that they are equally important but playdifferent roles.

I remember when we first hooked up with Philip Kotler in the eighties when we were trying to bring social marketing to Health Canada. Kotler explained:   “we marketers need to think about applying marketing concepts to social problems”

The decline and fall of pharmaceutical spending…short- or long-term phenomenon? | Health Populi

The decline and fall of pharmaceutical spending…short- or long-term phenomenon? | Health Populi | Social marketing. Health promotion | Scoop.it

The prescription drug cost curve is bending…for the time being. Spending on medicines fell by 3.5% in 2012 and will continue to fall below overall health spending over the next five years to 2017.

But different from general health spending, there’s a new game in town called specialty medicines, and they cost a whole lot more than the generics and the aging brands that bent the cost curve in 2012.

Private payers look to telemedicine

Private payers look to telemedicine | Social marketing. Health promotion | Scoop.it

“We have always been clear that we do not see telemedicine options as an alternative to the establishment and maintenance of patient care delivered by primary care physicians,” said  Slavin. “Rather, we see that telemedicine may complement the patient-physician relationship by making it easier for physicians to deliver care effectively and efficiently, facilitate communication with patients and help improve patient safety.”

Gamification vs. Health Gaming? You Decide. - Makovsky

Gamification vs. Health Gaming? You Decide. - Makovsky | Social marketing. Health promotion | Scoop.it
Today, the advance of social and digital technologies, as well as the convergence of social software, mobile devices and data analytics, has led many organizations to pursue new strategies to connect with and educate consumers. More than ever, these organizations use gamification – the process of using game-related dynamics and thinking on apps and social networks to influence and reward behavior.

Gamification often consists of tools that leverage a person's desire for achievement, recognition, reward, status and self-expression. These elements of desire are then incorporated into social websites and apps such as Foursquare, Weight Watchers and Nike+ that rely on badges and point systems to reward consumers for their actions, while also driving engagement and tracking data.
