At the same time, a positive influence of marketing tools for stimulating of cross-border convergence between Ukraine and the EU is demonstrated. In this sense, key aspects of marketing in near-border rural areas of Ukraine are: branding, product and pricing policy, PR and advertising, and marketing researches. Proposals to state authorities and local self-government of Ukraine are formulated. In particular, the priority directions of the using of marketing management tools for developing of near-border rural areas of Ukraine are highlighted.
