In a world of almost unlimited choice, we pick a subset of available items to browse from.
This subset is typically determined by brand, retail outlet or price. I want to buy something from the Gap (or not). I will check the Clearance rack.
It's up to green marketers to deeply realize our tendency to cordon off a section of the market that we will choose from, and present a subset of globally available items in an appealing way, such that consumers are liable to access it.
Green marketers, in other words, re-frame the market.
"Ecocentra is an online marketing place for buying and selling eco friendly and ethical products
"Unlike ebay, you can list your products for up to 3 months
"Unlike ebay, we focus on products that help reduce our impact on the planet
"Unlike ebay, listing and selling your products on ecocentra is FREE. "
