  • Evangelism As a Marketing Strategy in the Challenging and Innovative Business Scenario: a Theoretical Overview
    EVANGELISM AS A MARKETING STRATEGY IN THE CHALLENGING AND INNOVATIVE BUSINESS SCENARIO: A THEORETICAL OVERVIEW Gopika G1, K. G. Rajani2 1,2 Assistant Professors, Department of Commerce and Management, Amrita School of Arts And Sciences, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Amrita University, Kochi, (India) ABSTRACT In the modern era, where people’s culture is being influenced by Web, the most powerful form of marketing is word of mouth. In a highly populous market where various companies sell homogeneous goods, it is crucial to find a business which performs an exemplary service. Transforming a customer into an advertising media is a marketing dream. As there are several companies with more or less similar products, and the present business environment is really a challenging one, more connections with the customers have become need of the hour. Always prospective customers depend on the existing customers recommendations while they are making a purchasing decision. With the onset of Social Networking, evangelism marketing has taken a crucial role, where companies compete to spread their influence through the social networks of their customers. The term product evangelism means to build reputation for the company through the existing customers by the word of mouth method. This article expounds the importance of evangelism marketing in the challenging and innovative business scenario thus pointing out the virtue of this apparatus. Keywords: Business, Customer, Evangelism, Marketing, Products, Purchasing Decision. I INTRODUCTION The term “evangelism” is derived from three words, 'bringing good news'. Evangelism marketing is an innovative method of word-of-mouth marketing. Here the customers who are happy after using a particular product or service may convince others to make a purchase decision use the same.

  • Jesus Is Not a Brand
    Jesus Is Not a Brand Why it is dangerous to make evangelism another form of marketing. Tyler Wigg-Stevenson/ January 2, 2009 For months after I first moved to Nashville, a billboard by the westbound I-40 advertised an alcohol addiction recovery program. But what caught my eye was the billboard's photograph: the coldest, frothiest, most delicious-looking pint of beer that has ever been poured. I never wanted a beer more than I did when I drove past that billboard. And I am not an alcoholic. I wonder how many of the hundreds of people suffering from addiction passed that spot every day and were perversely tempted— not to enter rehab, but to pull off at the next exit for a tall, cold one. Marketing has problems if it makes the consumer pant for the dead opposite of what you are trying to sell. An Unavoidable Dilemma This is the issue we confront when weighing the merits of the church's public outreach, its evangelistic task, in a Western culture saturated by marketing. By marketing, I refer to all the activities that help organizations identify and shape the wants of target consumers and then try to satisfy those consumers better than competitors do. This usually involves doing market research, analyzing consumer needs, and then making strategic decisions about product design, branding, pricing, promotion, advertising, and distribution. While researching Brand Jesus, I realized that the church faced unavoidable questions as it sought to maintain a public witness and evangelistic task in a consumerist culture. One is this: Should we market the church and the church's message? (In this article, I assume that our evangelistic message is about knowing Christ and being incorporated into his body.

Digital marketing has contributed to the global market through the use of internet providers as support to their main business. The Internet arose as a new mode of mass communication. The Internet differs from other forms of mass media communication in that it is a low-cost two-way communication medium that allows people on both sides of the communication channel to communicate with one another. As a result, most people have shifted their information gathering from traditional mass media to the Internet. During the same time, globalization became a reality. Because the world has been viewed as a global village, further research could look into m-commerce as a marketing strategy. JEL: M10; M31 Keywords: e-commerce, e-marketing, distribution channel, m-commerce, marketing strategy 1. Introduction Marketing research and practice have expanded significantly, from an emphasis on marketing as a functional management issue to a broader focus on marketing's strategic role in overall corporate strategy. This expansion of the marketing concept to include both strategic and operational decisions has resulted in a conflation of marketing and strategic management.

The significance of the study has increased leaps and bounds in the present scenario as a result of intense competition resulting from the proliferation of brands further compounded by consumerism and global flow of information through internet and social media networks. Evangelism marketing can play a constructive role in development and growth of brands especially in the context of recent developments like emergence of the concept of brand love and establishment of brand communities. The study throws light on the impact of evangelism marketing on consumer buying behaviour and brand loyalty. Keywords : Evangelism Marketing, Consumer Buying Behaviour. INTRODUCTION “[Brand] Evangelism is much more powerful than advertising because evangelism says ‘I believe this and if you join me in this belief… something exciting is going to happen. It is going to be great for me and for you ”_Guy Kawasaki (1991). The marketing scenario has undergone a radical change in the recent years with the proliferation of brands as well as the media in almost every industry.
