Good Marketing
Marketing is sometimes perceived as deceitful or manipulative, with a goal to make us buying things that we don’t really need or at unfairly high prices.  It may also be viewed in an oversimplified manner, as “common sense” and “creative thinking”, limited to promotional activities and advertisement. On this site I will focus on positive aspects of marketing - changing the world for the better, establishing new trends, providing great customer service, engaging and creating shared value, corporate social responsibility and sustainability. I will also tell you how successful marketing strategies are rooted in understanding human psychology.

Why brands should embrace 'slow marketing' | Good Marketing | Scoop.it
The frantic pace of our 'always-on', digitally driven marketing world means that slowing down is becoming a business necessity, writes Nicola Kemp.

Via Andrew Norton
Kasia Hein-Peters's insight:

Slow marketing movement preaches more mindful approach to marketing in our increasingly hectic world. I personally believe that it has a merit and that we should always take time to get to know our customers and to develop the right strategy. But in our short-term focused business model, such approach may not be appreciated. What do you think?

Strength-Based Marketing: Positive Psychology Meets Brand Building

Strength-Based Marketing: Positive Psychology Meets Brand Building | Good Marketing | Scoop.it
What is positive psychology?

The term positive psychology was coined by Martin Seligman during his 1998
presidential address to the American Psychological Association. In his
speech, Seligman asserted that psychology had become too narrowly focused.

Clinical psychologists had gotten very good at dealing with mental illness
in the wake of WWII, but the entire discipline had begun to revolve around
a healing ideology. Seligman argued that in the process of fixing weakness,
psychologists had forgotten about building strength.

The same can be said of marketers. […]

Scientists Discover Brain Network That Distinguishes Novelty From Familiarity

Scientists Discover Brain Network That Distinguishes Novelty From Familiarity | Good Marketing | Scoop.it
Each morning, on your daily stroll to work, you migrate along the same streets, pass the same shops, smell the same aromas seeping out of the same cafes, and even habitually step on the same drain covers. But one day, you notice a new street sign, or perhaps a different gâteau amongst the usual delectable spread in a patisserie window. You’re immediately aware of its unfamiliarity, but how does your brain so readily distinguish between novel and known things?
Kasia Hein-Peters's insight:
