Marketing "methods"?

Can marketing CAMPAIGNS actually be referred to as marketing methods??

The latter sounds vaguely raw to me as I don't see it being used widely in business magazines and newspapers, but then again I'm not an account manager at a marketing firm so I'm not entirely sure.

Thanks in advance!

"marketing campaigns" and "marketing methods" are both valid phrases but they do not mean the same thing. A "campaign" is an effort or initiative to achieve a specific goal, in this case the promotion of a specific product. It last for a certain period of time and then ends.
