The peculiarities of rural territories marketing and major reasons limiting its development in the border areas of Ukraine are examined. The author suggests the classification of rural territories marketing instruments by strategic directions. The image of Ukrainian rural territories and its types are explained. The range of practical recommendations on perspective capacities of border rural territories development in terms of marketing is suggested. Special attention is paid to the possibilities of crowdsourcing and crowdfunding as perspective instruments that allow residents to take active participation in the rural territories’ development.
