Putting the Audience First in Social Marketing | Ep #29
Audience research is absolutely essential to the social marketing process. Unless you truly know the audience’s values and needs, you cannot craft a strategy to exchange a new healthier behavior for a competing behavior.
In this episode, we discuss some of the obstacles to audience research and how you can do audience research on a shoestring. We also discuss how the focus on the audience makes social marketing a natural fit for approaches that center marginalized audiences and share power with the audience during the research and planning process.
