An indirect way of marketing products, stealth marketing focuses on creating buzz among the audience as a whole without letting people realize that products are actually being marketed to them.

Some examples of stealth marketing are hiring actors to subtly promote products to the public, sockpuppeting, paying influencers to post about a product or service without disclosing that it's actually an ad, creating fake viral videos, and product placement in movies.

There are lots of stealth marketing techniques, which is known as one of the most popular being item placement and undercover marketing. And you can see that stealth marketing aims to generate instant sales and create excitement and interest, which can make your customers more and more receptive to get advertisements directed later.
