Socially Responsible Marketing is a strategy where businesses prioritize doing activities that positively impact society. It involves making marketing decisions that consider the company’s impact on the environment and the welfare of society. This approach connects with Corporate Social Responsibility[1] (CSR), which encourages companies to self-regulate and acknowledge their impact on various stakeholders. It can be seen in different forms like social marketing[2], cause-related marketing, and environmental marketing. Socially responsible marketing goes beyond just sticking to ethical guidelines; it voluntarily surpasses these minimum standards. This marketing approach contrasts with mainstream marketing by opposing practices that can harm society, like deceptive pricing and promotion tactics. It aims to foster long-term customer[3] loyalty[4] by focusing on consumidor[5] needs and societal interests.
