Introduction to Marketing & Sustainability

To meet the demand of those working within marketing, for whom sustainability agenda represented a new and perhaps daunting challenge, the Smart-Know:Net has produced the introductory guide “Marketing and Sustainability”. Co-authored by leading Sustainable Marketing Experts and Smart-Know:Net founders Professor Martin Charter, Professor Ken Peattie, Jacqueline Ottman and Michael Jay Polonsky, it provides a clear guide to the growing social and environmental pressures that businesses face and their implications in terms of the need for more sustainable marketing strategies and solutions for the future. The guide uses many practical examples to demonstrate how leading companies are responding to these challenges, and an online “Web companion” has been developed for it to provide further sources of information on its key themes.

The booklet is available online in PDF format here:
