and concern about a social cause or to support fundraising,
participation or volunteer recruitment for a cause.

Volunteers to contribute/Participate in the cause
5. Cont.
- Approaches:
Most commonly Corporations are approached to contribute to a
cause promotion being developed by a non-profit organization.
In some cases, the corporation decides to support a social cause
and then reaches out to partners supporting the cause.
But in a few cases, the corporation may go it alone, developing and
managing the campaign internally.
6. How is it different?
Cause related Marketing:
Contributions and support are not tied to company sales of
specified products.
Social Marketing:
Focus is not on influencing individual behavior change.
Employee Volunteering:
Involves more than just participation of
employees/volunteers.

Includes an online article named 10 types of Cause Promotion
16. 1. The Proud Supporter Method
When a company gives a flat donation to a cause/nonprofit
organization, and the donation is not tied to sales of a product or
action by the consumer. Cone refers to this as the proud supporter
method because this language often accompanies this type of cause
promotion on the package.

18. Pro: Longer shelf life because its not directly tied to
individual sales
Con: Passive consumer engagement no compelling call-to-action to
drive engagement

19. 2. Donation with Purchase
When a donation is triggered for each specially marked package sold
during a pre-determined timeframe. The donation may vary and may be
described in terms of a percentage or dollar amount of each
product. A funding cap is generally associated with this type of
promotion.

22. 3. Donation with Label or Coupon Redemption
When a company makes a donation for every code/label provided
through purchase and redeemed in-store or via mail. It is not the
sale itself which triggers the donation, but the supplemental
action.

A method that doesnt require a purchase; the fifth type of
promotion is when a company makes a donation when the consumer

pair of shoes bought = one pair of shoes donated).
