Unlike traditional marketing that aims to disrupt and interrupt customers, permission marketing focuses on growing the business organically by gaining customer permission to send them information. It relies on customers becoming brand ambassadors who bring in new customers through word-of-mouth, increasing lifetime customer value. Permission marketing requires careful multi-stage integration planning to change conventional marketing models in a way that respects customer attention spans and avoids spamming.
