Article Abstract:
Extensive research has been undertaken into the use of celebrities to endorse a particular company and its products or services.

Green marketing uses reward and reinforcement to achieve the same end. Both approaches have some impact but a strategy combining the two approaches has the potential to effect change more rapidly with the green marketing acting as a multiplier.
