This can be a key factor in being a pioneer in your specific industry. Your audience who shares or abides by the same principles holds you up to an ethical standard, which your advertising and sales team work together to maintain efficiently.

Is Manipulation Ethical?

When it comes to using manipulation ethically as a marketing tool, Founder & CEO of Reputation House, Nikita Prokhorov said during the session," Using marketing every day is ethical," as he goes on to emphasize the fact that marketing every day to grow your brand is ethical, to both your brand value and consumers at the global platform of the Marketing 2.0 Conference's Dubai Edition.

Consumers Have Two Fears: Exploitation Of Their Trust And Insecurities

Marketing conferences shed light upon how there exists a very fine line between engaging consumer emotions beneficially and exploiting them and how crossing it eventually throws the consumers away from your brand. Customers tend to prefer having their emotions sympathized with rather than manipulated.

Effectively using your platform and keeping in mind your influence on a global level is an essential responsibility for brands. Puja also touches upon consumer anxiety when it comes to privacy issues. "As a marketer, you are obliged and responsible to make sure that you take care of data privacy & security," stated Puja.

Using the global platform of the Marketing 2.0 Conference, Elza Malok, A big believer in this approach, stated, "From my perspective, I take the approach of what the client really wants and their intentions." "What do they actually want to do?" is an essential question, added Elza. Understanding your client's psychological and emotional approach & making sure they should be a priority.
