Include speeches in marketing mix
Article Abstract:
Marketing executives can use speeches as a marketing tool. A keynote address to an industry-wide convention is an excellent marketing opportunity because the listeners are potential customers or investors. Businesses should also show themselves as industry leaders in their target market by means of speaking engagements. However, speeches as a marketing ploy should be used with caution because the audience may expect an independent perspective.
