Direct Marketing Definition
Undertaking marketing activity through various advertising media that interact directly with consumers, generally calling for a consumer to make a direct response is known as direct marketing (Kotler and Armstrong, 2009). It is an interactive use of advertising media to stimulate a behaviour modification in such a way that this behaviour can be tracked, analysed and stored on a database for future retrieval and use which is usually built upon to cultivate lasting customer relationships (Stone and Jacob, 2008).
