In today’s generation where people are becoming more and more sensitive to how their actions impact the environment, it is important for businesses in Southeast Asia to get that eco-friendly reputation.  

But getting even a single certification of being sustainable is not enough to help your brand firmly position itself as one that cares for Mother Earth. The community must know about it and this is why you have green marketing.  

Read along as we tell you what is green marketing all about, its benefits for your business, and how we can help you incorporate it into your overall business strategies. 

What is Green Marketing?  

In its operational sense, green marketing is the term used for tactics designed specifically to showcase the environmental benefits of products or services. It is also known as environmental marketing.  

Words such as eco-friendly, recyclable, sustainable, organic, and cruelty-free, frequently associated with companies doing the best practices in saving the planet, are just some of the products of green marketing.
