Recipe for Marketing Success


There is nothing wrong with embracing charities that move you – or those which your company may have a particular connection with – and incorporating them into your marketing program via sponsorships or joint marketing initiatives which benefit the charities. Just be sure you are giving for the right reasons – whole heartedly, and not for the PR perks you may receive in return.
