MGT301 GDB Solution

Solution NO:1

Companies are not considering social marketing in their marketing mix, just because
government legislation is not there. It does not mean that companies can market
every kind of package and every kind of sms rates and should not see the long run
disadvantages of the packages and rates they are giving to the customers. Because
these packages are so cheap and affordable, students and youngsters are wasting much
time and effort in chatting and having all night talks with just for no reason and even
some people are doing un ethical things. Rather than taking these effects into account,
companies are offering more cheaper and affordable packages just to acquire the market
share and have a competitive advantage, companies are causing so much damage to the
future of the young people by driving them in to the unethical, unproductive and time
wasting activities. Companies have to evaluate and monitor the long range consequences
of the packages and services they are offering in the market, and they should be held
responsible if their products and services are causing damage to the society at large.

Solution NO:2

Solution:
Telecom sector in Pakistan are not practicing the societal marketing
concept as this concept is not about
- Word of mouth marketing
- Dating or matchmaking services
- Public service announcements
- Focus groups
- Cause marketing (companies adopting a cause to improve their
image and get more sales)
But it is
A process that uses commercial marketing techniques to promote the
adoption of positive health or social behaviors
- An approach that benefits the people who are adopting the
behaviors or society as a whole, rather than the organization doing
the marketing
So according to the given scenario as these companies offer cheap
call and SMS rates due to which youth of Pakistan wastes most of
their time in sending messages and late night long calls. Now it has
become our social dilemma that rather than putting energies and
prestigious time in fruitful and productive activities, youth is wasting

time in these useless and sometimes unethical activities which is not
in the benefit of the society.
