SOSTAC information


SOSTAC is a marketing model developed by PR Smith in the 1990s [1][2][3] and later formalized in his 1998 book Marketing Communications,[1] the subsequent series of SOSTAC Guides to your Perfect Plan (2011)[4] and the SOSTAC Guide to your Perfect Digital Marketing Plan (2020).[5]

It is an acronym for Smith's six fundamental facets of marketing: situation, objectives, strategy, tactics, action and control.[6]

SOSTAC contains a general marketing strategy which can be applied in various commercial situations.[7][8] It includes an in-depth SWOT analysis, which helps businesses get ready for marketing campaigns; the main difference is that SOSTAC also focuses on the implementation stages of the process,[9] on marketing communications[10] and now, digital marketing.

The structure of SOSTAC is a simple logic that builds on an in-depth Situation Analysis which informs subsequent decisions made about strategy and tactics. Its logic can enable better decision making and therefore better plans .

Marketing experts have adapted SOSTAC to a number of specific situations, including direct marketing[7] and electronic marketing.[11] The steps in the process have also been adapted to the development of internet security systems[12] and company business plans.[13]
