More About Strategic And Tactical Marketing

Strategic Marketing is overall plan of a company to achieve goals and objectives while Tactical Marketing are Short-term action plans to accomplish these overall objectives and goals of a company. For example, if the strategic marketing is to grow the business in local area of a city within five years, then tactical marketing is adopted to achieve this objective and goal by promoting well trained staff in this particular area, different products offerings are introduced, etc.

If tactics are not implemented overall goals are not achieved and if tactics are implemented but overall goal is not clear then actions are done in the wrong way. For example, if the company strategic marketing is not clear whether to increase sales within five year, then tactical actions may be done slowly and in the wrong way i.e., required expertise marketing team may not be hired and only few trained team members are hired and they have no plan to increase sales within five years in such particular area of city, then also overall goal will not be achieved.
