    and the other one was from business dealings practice. %he

    view from the political side, it was argued that ethics in

    where as it argued that market was responsible for all of

    the consumers. 5ere %he ethical concern of the targeting

    research, the conflicts, and challenges , ethical

    responsibility, presented to be continue, in the e*tended

    run as well as efficient and effective may be ensured.

    )n general the most unkind accuses regarding this lack of

    ethics were to be advertising from the group which ofmarketing communication techniques and this was the one

    which were with the highest degree of treatment of

    consumer0s awarded. %his was used by organization, to send

    messages with the use of moving some answers of perceptual

    in the targeted public. %he advertising had e*act

    functions, it informs the public inspiration, in primary

    demand, that had persuades consumers, ne*t to creation of a

    selective demand, and it creates comparisons, with the goal

    of providing the advantage and to maintain consumer0s

    interest, for trademarks and products. 4nd this had a

    series of characteristics that present certain specificity

    and make known controversies about the ethics.

    %he literatures of this marketing ethics were

    differentiating, between the both of the descriptiveapproaches, and normative approaches. far as the

    15/38

    population0s .Dormative approaches make out proper values,

    and the methods that offer reason for the &udgments, that

    what was the right one and wrong. Dormative marketing

    ethics concerned with the prescribed, what managers should

    had to perform and when they faced with the ethical issue.

    +o %he =eviews of the marketing ethics literature e*plain

    that there were significant quantities of descriptive

    contributions but far6off less normative contributions.

    %he Ethical questions arises here, because the sales

    presentation was the most usual system, by which marketing

    council could evaluated performance , pressures which couldbe e*isted in dilemmas of the ethics. where as the pressuring

    vendors holded to purchased e*tra, than their wants and

    approaching stuff, that resulted in higher commissions that

    were temptations, where all of the arketing ethics overlaps,

    with the natural ethics, in respect of desecrated problems

    that linked with covering of products.

    2n the increasing number of people they created their use

    decisions on the source of ethical values, such as

    environmentally friendly products, and production methods,

    Ethical consumerism were growing fact that underpins the

    ethical trade activities.

    )n the market place the arketers should be alerted with

    the ethical principles, and the acceptable behavior. +o bythat, the knowledge means marketers must be famoused, with

    the viewpoints of those three groups of actors, the firs

    will be the company then the industry, and then society.

    %hese more or less had a diverse need and wants, and

    15

    ethical clashes, that were e*pected to occur. %he Ethical

    variations between those three needs that were mentioned,

    was the company, the industry, and the society, so by those

    the conflict may arised. 4nd then that ethical conflict

    take place, when one0s private value clash with the

    organization.

    2n the other hand the other case of the clash of concernis

    a possible outcome. %he most commonly clash arised with the

    organizations occurs, when an organizer in the company

    seeks private achieve, from fake advertising. %he vital

    diseases were of one type product, which falls under thatcategory of ethical clash i.e. )n their abandon to create a

    vanished from not curable disease, and should to buy a

    product, that cannot a heal, but a serious one may decided

    professional0s that were in this time falls under one of

    three categories. %hose +tandards for the ethical

    closer to zero = square is coefficient of determination. %he

    value of r square is ."(- which shows that the regression

    line is not a perfect estimate of the variable.

    ostly I=0 square lies between #J- and actually it measures

    only the strength of the linear relation between variable.

    CHAPTER NO. 3

    CONC)U!ION AND RECO--ENDATION!

    CONC)U!ION

    %his research has successfully led towards comprehensive

    analysis of the role of organization in creation of

    consumer0s awareness regarding their ethical rights in

    promotional activities.

    a&ority of customers agreed to the point that they areaware of their ethical rights in terms during the marketing

    campaigns. 2n the other hand organizations are also

    responsible towards customer rights and treat the customers

    with ethical responsibility.

    )t is also noted that the /romotional 4ctivities in

    /akistan are ethically correct in )slamabad reigon and thecustomers are made aware of the ethical issues regarding

    advertising and promotional activities.

    %he variable ?ustomer 4wareness of their Ethical =ights

    is directly related with the /romotional 4ctivities in

    /akistan. %his deduction shows that the /romotional

    4ctivities in /akistan have a direct impact on ?ustomer

    4wareness regarding their Ethical =ights. )f the

    /romotional 4ctivities depict Ethical 4wareness, the

    customers are going to be directly affected by the result.

    %he 2rganization0s =esponsibility towards ?ustomers show

    that the /romotional 4ctivities in /akistan are

    representing =esponsible 2rganizations which are keen to

    depict that their customers are important to them and they

    are ethically bound to be giving them the correct inputs.

    )t is also realized that if 2rganizations in )slamabad are

    more responsible towards their customers then the customers

    in return become more aware of the ethical issues related

    to a certain product on which the promotional ativity is

    based upon.

    %he organizations which are responsible towards their

    customers have a greater understanding of the Ethical

    Aimits of the customers. %his is very important in said

    scenario as the customer is very sensitive to various

    ethnic, demographic and sectarian issues and might reactvery abruptly towards a particular input shown in the

    advertisement and promotional campaign.

    +o from all the above discussion it is now revealed that

    customers are well aware of their ethical rights and

    organizations on the other hand are very responsible in

    treating customers ethically, and playing their role increation of consumer awareness regarding their ethical

    rights.
