However it happened, that moment was marketing in action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Great marketing doesn\u2019t just sell\u2014it builds connections, earns trust, and ensures&nbsp; customers coming back for more. It\u2019s the engine behind brand loyalty, product launches, and business growth. And in a landscape that\u2019s constantly shifting\u2014from traditional print ads to AI-powered personalisation\u2014understanding the different types of marketing is more essential than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we\u2019ll explore the full spectrum of marketing\u2014from timeless strategies that still work, to emerging digital tactics reshaping the game. Whether you&#8217;re a founder, a marketer, or just curious, this guide will help you navigate what works, why it matters, and how to put it into action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-marketing\">What is marketing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Marketing is essentially how businesses create brand value and communicate it to their audience. The ultimate goal of marketing is to build lasting relationships with customers by aligning what a brand offers and what the customers want. It covers everything, from understanding customer pain points to delivering the right message at the right time through the most effective channels.<br><br>Unlike a common misconception, marketing is not selling, it does not directly sell to the customer. Instead, it ensures that your customers <em>remember<\/em> to buy from you when they make the purchase decision. Instead of pushing people through a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ap\/blog\/sales-funnel\/\">sales funnel<\/a>, marketing answers queries, solves problems, and offers educational insights to build trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"layout-one wp-block-salesforce-blog-offer\">\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__wrapper\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__content\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"wp-block-offer__title\"><strong>Marketing\u2019s biggest trends await<\/strong><\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"wp-block-offer__description\">Explore the latest trends, benchmarks, and strategies from over 6,000 global marketers<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/reg.salesforce.com\/flow\/plus\/df25\/agendabuilder\/page\/agendabuilder\">Build it now<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__contour\"><\/div>\n\t\n\t\t\t<!-- Standard Illustration -->\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__illustration\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-illustration-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\n\t\t<!-- Small Accent Illustration -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__accent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-accent-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- Left Side Illustration -->\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- Cloud Illustration -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__cloud\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-cloud-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-two-types-of-marketing-approaches\">Two types of marketing approaches<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Broadly speaking, most marketing strategies fall into one of the two categories, depending on the target audience: Business-to-Business (B2B) or Business-to-Consumer (B2C).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-b2b-marketing-building-trust-and-value-for-businesses\">B2B marketing: Building trust and value for businesses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/marketing\/b2b-automation\/b2b-marketing-guide\/\">B2B marketing<\/a> is to connect businesses with each other. Mainly deployed in formal settings, the focus here is on logic, efficiency, and return on investment. Buyers are often decision-makers who are evaluating long-term partnerships, so messaging needs to be clear, data-backed, and tailored to business needs.<br><br>B2B strategies commonly include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Case studies and whitepapers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Email campaigns and webinars<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>LinkedIn and professional network advertising<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CRM and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/products\/marketing-cloud\/marketing-automation-types-categories\/\">marketing automation tools<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the sales cycle is often longer, B2B marketing relies on consistent engagement and content that builds trust over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-b2c-marketing-driving-emotion-and-engagement\">B2C Marketing: Driving emotion and engagement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In B2C marketing, brands speak directly to individual paying customers. As a result, it is more emotionally driven, faster-paced, and built for scale. The goal here is to capture attention quickly and turn that interest into action, i.e., purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Popular B2C tactics include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/marketing\/ai\/social-media-guide\/\">Social media<\/a> and influencer marketing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Seasonal campaigns and promotions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Storytelling through video and interactive content<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Personalised email and SMS campaigns<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Where B2B marketing focuses on logic, B2C leans into experience. The messaging is designed to resonate with everyday moments and personal motivations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Tabulated difference between B2B and B2C Marketing<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Aspect<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>B2B Marketing<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>B2C Marketing<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Audience<\/td><td>Businesses and decision-makers<\/td><td>Individual consumers<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Messaging<\/td><td>Rational, value-focused<\/td><td>Emotional, benefit-driven<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sales Cycle<\/td><td>Longer, more complex<\/td><td>Shorter, impulse-driven<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Channels<\/td><td>LinkedIn, email, and content marketing<\/td><td>Social media, paid ads, SMS\/email<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Content Style<\/td><td>Educational, detailed<\/td><td>Visual, relatable<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve unpacked how B2B and B2C marketing differ, let\u2019s look at the tried-and-tested methods both often rely on\u2014traditional marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-10-most-common-types-of-traditional-marketing\">The 10 most common types of traditional marketing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the rise of digital tools, traditional marketing shaped how brands were discovered, remembered, and trusted. Even today, these types of marketing strategies are seen daily &#8211; on streets, in conversations, and across mailboxes.&nbsp;Here\u2019s how the most common forms of traditional marketing continue to deliver value, especially when used alongside digital strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-outbound-marketing\">1. Outbound marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While the goal of marketing is to get your message across to customers, outbound marketing proactively initiates contact instead of waiting for them to seek out the business. You see it every day: an ad in the morning paper, a billboard during your commute, or a brand&#8217;s jingle during a cricket match. Outbound marketing sends a message to the masses, often in moments when they\u2019re most attentive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For brands looking to build awareness quickly, this approach still works, especially in sectors like FMCG, automotive, and local services where visibility translates directly into recall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-personalised-marketing\">2. Personalised marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike mass media ads or generic flyers, personalised traditional marketing uses physical or human touchpoints (store visits, calls, direct mail, in-person events) to deliver tailored experiences based on customer behaviour, preferences, or life context. It could be as simple as a handwritten thank-you note or a birthday postcard from your local store &#8211; small actions that quietly build loyalty over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In industries like real estate and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/retail\/\">premium retail<\/a>, brands often go a step further- arranging personalised tours, hand-delivering samples, or sending printed catalogues with curated selections based on past interactions and location-based preferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"layout-one wp-block-salesforce-blog-offer\">\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__wrapper\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__content\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"wp-block-offer__title\"><\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"wp-block-offer__description\">Personalisation in the digital world works a little differently\u2014think algorithms, dynamic content, and real-time data. Curious how it all comes together?<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/marketing\/personalization\/guide\/\">Read our guide<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__contour\"><\/div>\n\t\n\t\t\t<!-- Standard Illustration -->\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__illustration\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-illustration-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\n\t\t<!-- Small Accent Illustration -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__accent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-accent-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- Left Side Illustration -->\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- Cloud Illustration -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__cloud\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-cloud-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-direct-mail\">3. Direct mail<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Direct mail is one of the oldest and most enduring forms of traditional marketing. It involves sending physical promotional materials\u2014like postcards, brochures, catalogs, or letters\u2014directly to a customer&#8217;s mailbox. While digital channels offer speed, direct mail stands out for its tangible, personal touch. When well-designed and targeted, it can cut through digital noise, evoke stronger recall, and drive meaningful engagement\u2014especially when combined with thoughtful personalisation or timely offers.<br><br>For example, a local salon might send a discount postcard to customers who haven\u2019t visited in three months\u2014reminding them it\u2019s time to book their next appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-partner-marketing\">4. Partner marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When two brands come together for a shared <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/marketing\/campaigns\/\">marketing campaign<\/a>, they combine audiences and build trust through association. Think of a telecom provider bundling subscriptions to a streaming service, or a retail brand co-hosting a local event with a digital wallet company. Partnerships also show up through co-branded leaflets, joint offers at physical stores, or event sponsorships, often reaching audiences that digital outreach alone might miss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-telemarketing\">5. Telemarketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, telemarketing still has a place \u2013 when done right. The point is to move ahead from cold calls with canned scripts that take a spray-and-pray approach, to warm, data-backed conversations. The idea is to shift from generic pitches to helping customers make informed choices.<br><br>Sales teams using platforms like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/sales\/cloud\/\">Salesforce Sales Cloud<\/a> rely on structured call cadences enriched by CRM insights, leading to more relevant, consultative discussions that help customers make better decisions. That means smarter conversations that open doors, rather than slam them shut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-public-relations-pr-marketing\">6. Public relations (PR) marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When a brand makes news, such as a new product launch, a leadership change, or a social impact initiative, PR ensures the story reaches the right audience. Examples include print media coverage, interviews in trade journals, and expert opinions featured in business supplements \u2013 designed to lend credibility and extend a brand\u2019s presence beyond digital channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-word-of-mouth-marketing\">7. Word of mouth marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Nothing builds credibility like recommendations from another paying customer. A friend sharing a positive customer service experience, a colleague praising a platform vendor after a smooth implementation &#8211; these organic endorsements carry more weight than paid promotions. Also called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/referral-marketing\/\">referral marketing<\/a>, this is often amplified through real-world touchpoints: a standout store interaction, thoughtful packaging, or helpful service reps that went out of their way to assist a customer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-8-stealth-marketing\">8. Stealth marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all marketing needs to announce itself. Stealth marketing works by embedding your brand in environments where it naturally fits. Think product mentions in interviews, subtle sponsorships, or immersive brand activations.<br>Startups at trade expos often lean into this\u2014using branded demo booths or ambient signage that quietly register in the minds of prospects&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Startups showcasing solutions during industry expos often adopt this approach- using branded demo booths or ambient signage that plants seeds of familiarity in the minds of key decision-makers without overtly selling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-9-brand-marketing\">9. Brand marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Strong brands aren\u2019t built overnight. Billboards, print ads, uniforms, signage &#8211; every physical presence of a brand contributes to how it\u2019s perceived. Brand marketing focuses on shaping that perception with consistency and emotional resonance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider Raymond\u2019s \u2018The Complete Man\u2019 campaign. Through years of print ads, television commercials, and in-store experiences, the brand didn\u2019t just sell fabric, it sold an idea of refined masculinity rooted in care, empathy, and confidence. That narrative, reinforced again and again through traditional media, became the cornerstone of Raymond\u2019s identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-10-cause-marketing\">10. Cause marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>People back brands that reflect their values. When a brand supports a cause, not as a PR stunt but as a core part of its identity, it forges deeper bonds with its customers.<br><br>We often see this in television ads. Tata Tea\u2019s \u201cJaago Re\u201d campaign began as an awareness drive around voting rights and eventually <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/news\/stories\/salesforce-accelerates-digital-transformation-of-tata-consumer-products-limited\/\">evolved into a larger platform<\/a> for civic consciousness and social responsibility. When done with sincerity, cause marketing leaves a mark that lasts well beyond the campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"layout-one wp-block-salesforce-blog-offer\">\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__wrapper\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__content\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"wp-block-offer__title\"><strong><strong>Learn How to Build Campaigns from the Ground Up<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"wp-block-offer__description\">Plan, create, and launch impactful marketing campaigns using Salesforce tools.\u00a0<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/trailhead.salesforce.com\/content\/learn\/modules\/campaign_basics\">Learn campaign basics on Trailhead<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__contour\"><\/div>\n\t\n\t\t\t<!-- Standard Illustration -->\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__illustration\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-illustration-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\n\t\t<!-- Small Accent Illustration -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__accent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-accent-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- Left Side Illustration -->\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- Cloud Illustration -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__cloud\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-cloud-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-popular-forms-of-digital-marketing\">7 popular forms of digital marketing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Digital marketing tackles a problem that traditional marketing often fails to solve- precision. With data-driven tools and audience insights, marketers can reach the right people at the right moment, on the platforms they\u2019re already engaging with.<br><br>Here\u2019s a breakdown of the most popular forms of digital marketing that brands use to convert <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/marketing\/lead-generation-guide\/\">prospects into leads<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-inbound-marketing\">1. Inbound marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Inbound flips the old script. Instead of chasing leads, it attracts them through valuable content that solves real problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, a small business offering cloud services might publish a free guide on choosing the right <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/crm\/\">CRM<\/a> for growth-stage startups, helping buyers make informed decisions while subtly positioning their own solution. That piece becomes a lead magnet for search traffic, and more importantly, for trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-search-engine-marketing\">2. Search engine marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Google alone processes around <a href=\"https:\/\/www.semrush.com\/blog\/google-search-statistics\/\">8.5 billion<\/a> searches daily. Every second, someone is searching for something, and search engine marketing (SEM) ensures your brand is visible when intent is highest. Whether it\u2019s a paid search ad for \u201cbest accounting software\u201d or a shopping campaign for niche electronics, SEM uses <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/marketing\/ai\/seo-guide\/\">search engine optimisation<\/a> to put your brand at the top\u2014literally\u2014when buyers are actively looking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"layout-one wp-block-salesforce-blog-offer\">\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__wrapper\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__content\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"wp-block-offer__title\"><strong><strong>Rank higher on search engines<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"wp-block-offer__description\"><em>Your guide to finding the right keywords that drive real results<\/em><\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/how-to-do-keyword-research\/\">Know more<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__contour\"><\/div>\n\t\n\t\t\t<!-- Standard Illustration -->\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__illustration\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-illustration-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\n\t\t<!-- Small Accent Illustration -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__accent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-accent-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- Left Side Illustration -->\n\t\t\n\t\t<!-- Cloud Illustration -->\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-offer__graphics wp-block-offer__cloud\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/salesforce-blog\/dist\/images\/offer-block\/offer-cloud-layout-one.png\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-content-marketing\">3. Content marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Randomly publishing blogs will not yield the desired results. A well-crafted content marketing strategy helps you build a content repository &#8211; a body of knowledge that educates and engages customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Content marketing aims to build trust over time. Think explainers, whitepapers, video tutorials, or podcasts tailored to your audience\u2019s context. Whatever the format, it should position your brand as an ally, and not just a seller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-affiliate-marketing\">4. Affiliate marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the best brand advocates are not your direct employees but people who believe in what you offer. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/affiliate-marketing\/\">Affiliate marketing<\/a> turns those advocates- creators, bloggers, and influencers- into partners, letting them earn commissions on conversions when they share your product. It works best when there\u2019s deep trust between the affiliate and their audience, with conversations driven by credibility and established trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-social-media-marketing\">5. Social media marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Social media is the modern public square, and more and more brands are recognising this. Whether it\u2019s a fashion brand using Instagram to launch a new collection or a business sharing their latest wins on LinkedIn, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/blog\/social-media-marketing\/\">social media marketing<\/a> helps brands consistently show up on customer feeds, building familiarity that eventually turns to trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-email-marketing\">6. Email marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Inboxes are intimate. When done respectfully, email marketing delivers quiet, high-conversion moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A re-engagement campaign for dormant users. A personalised offer based on previous purchases. A helpful nudge the day before a subscription renews. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/marketing\/email\/\">Email marketing<\/a> campaigns that respect the customer\u2019s time (and follow certain <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/form\/conf\/50-email-marketer-best-practices\/?leadcreated=true&amp;redirect=true&amp;sfuuid=3d28d6cb-abd5-4831-a196-a55ba803ab7e&amp;tid=c77fdefa-6db6-4e92-9063-b3f9ece8deb9&amp;d=pb&amp;nc=7013y000002O42eAAC\">best practices<\/a>) are highly effective. The ninth edition of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/in\/resources\/research-reports\/state-of-marketing\/?d=cta-header-1\">Salesforce State of Marketing report<\/a> found that 90% of marketers use email marketing to engage their customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With tools like Salesforce\u2019s Journey Builder, emails can be automated at scale without losing the human touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-mobile-marketing\">7.
