From the Back Cover

Public Sector Marketing

Tony Proctor

“A very useful source of exposition and reference for students of the public sector and practitioners in that sector interested in marketing perspectives and tools.”

Professor David Leece, Manchester Metropolitan University

“There are several texts that address specific issues within this field, but none bring together the concepts of marketing in the public sector as Tony’s book does.”

Dr Paula Roberts, Keele University

Public Sector Marketing is a lively and comprehensive guide to the skills and practices involved with marketing in the public sector. Taking the subject beyond its traditional roots in the private sector and profit-making organisations, this new book explores the distinctive demands and processes of the not-for-profit sector.

Using case studies, diagrams, examples and thought-provoking questions, this book provides the most up-to-date and extensive approach to this important subject. In his accessible, reader-friendly style, Tony Proctor defines public sector marketing as it is currently understood, and sets the agenda for its future development.
