„Companies are becoming increasingly dependent on their employees, their suppliers, their distributors and dealers, and their advertising agency. This dependence involves some loss of company freedom of action, but it increases the prospect of higher productivity and profitability. The key is for the company to form close relationships with its stakeholders. The company needs build a network of partners that all gain from their joint strategy and behavior. Mutual trust is the bond. Selecting good partners and motivating them is the key to stakeholder marketing.“

Since the company benefits from, and is dependent upon, a continuing cooperative exchange relationship with each stakeholder group, wise strategy formulation and implementation is vital to the company’s existence.“
