Strategic v/s Traditional Marketing
Strategic Marketing
Is the use of marketing disciplines to achieve organizational goals by developing
and maintaining a sustainable competitive advantage. It addresses high-level
considerations such as what markets to target, which services to offer, and how to price
and promote them.

8.
Traditional Marketing
I considered traditional marking as an outbound strategy wherein a specific company can convey its
brand message to its target audience, clear and loud. This can be done through cold calls, networking
events, business cards, postcards, billboards, promotional brochures, newsletters, flyers, television ads,
radio ads, print ads and even referrals.
