Marketing Channels Understanding Consumer and Business


A lot of companies use marketing channels such as Facebook to promote their products. Like for instance companies are starting to incorporate what is called brand promoters to do the promoting on social media site. They give the person different products to try out and have them go on different websites to promote them and sometimes they even get a monetary award for promoting the products in an effective way. The marketing channels allow the companies to gain recognition from consumers to use their brand.

Channel members interact by displaying the product or service showing of the benefits and the features for instance on Facebook, and spark consumers curiosity when they talk about it which makes people want to buy the product or service that is being offered. The brand promoters set out a strategic plan to get people excited and happy about the product or service just as much as them which peaks a person’s curiosity and then they decide to use it.

The major channels available for a company are listed as follows: Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and Instagram.

Companies select people that have the have the ability to influence others with their words, actions and deeds and they choose people that like using the service or product already. They keep them motivated by supplying the service or product to them, allowing them to try it out so they can tell others about it.

The importance of marketing logistics and integrated supply chain is knowing your audience and what they want and supplying it for them as quickly as possible while the demand is there, if you don’t, you run the risk of losing business and people will become dissatisfied.
