Social Marketing doesn't mean that you purchase likes and followers for your accounts. It means that make proper page on facebook, keep updating on daily basis, invite your friends and say you friends to they invite their friends then make some thing informative and interested on your page that people love to visit your page and visit your site. Through that you can improve your traffic and sell your products. You can do the same with twitter and Pinterest

These are all fake. You can buy fake facebook accounts but what good does that do? It makes you look like a cheater and someone everyone should avoid. If you want real followers make YouTube videos asking people to follow you or you can spend money advertising but what you want won't deliver anything.

Social marketing is the people who is interested in your product and follows you on twitter oand facebook. Whatever numbers of followers you buy from socialbakers won't contribute at all to your social marketing.

Social marketing was "born" as a discipline in the 1970s, when Philip Kotler and Gerald Zaltman realized that the same marketing principles that were being used to sell products to consumers could be used to "sell" ideas, attitudes and behaviors. Kotler and Andreasen define social marketing as "differing from other areas of marketing only with respect to the objectives of the marketer and his or her organization. Social marketing seeks to influence social behaviors not to benefit the marketer, but to benefit the target audience and the general society." This technique has been used extensively in international health programs, especially for contraceptives and oral rehydration therapy (ORT), and is being used with more frequency in the United States for such diverse topics as drug abuse, heart disease and organ donation.
