CHAPTER ONE

1.0     INTRODUCTION

Marketers should not only think of customers satisfaction as the key to profitability.  The marketer operates in an environment.  Where several forces are in a state of dynamic tension and these forces must never be under estimated by the marketer.  Socially responsible marketing recognizes that the organization is part of a larger society and as a result should be accountable to that larger society for its actions.

 

Okonkwo (2000:128) noted that social possibilities is the concerted efforts of business operators to initiate, formulate and implement policies and decision concerning the well being of the society by studying how their business actions and inactions affect the numbers of the society and taking corrective measures.

To Berkowitz et al there are three vasic concept of social responsibility.

 

1)                Profit responsibility: It holds that companies have a single responsibility and that is to maximize fit provided they operate within the rules of the game.
