Need for Integrated Marketing Communications
•
•
•
•
15.6
Mass marketing has become segmented marketing
Improvements in information technology
Media fragmentation
Need for integration:
– Consumers do not differentiate the source of the message
– Conflicting messages
confuse the customer
– Integration produces a
consistent message
which leads to
stronger brand
identity

attached to the symbols used to communicate are similar
– Senders need to

know and
understand who
they want to reach
– Need feedback
channels to be able
to assess
effectiveness of the
message sent

Designing a Message
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education Canada Inc.
• Message content:
– Rational appeals: relate to the audience’s self-interest
– Emotional appeals: stir up negative or positive feelings using humour,
fear, pride, joy, or even disgust
– Moral appeals: related the audience’s sense of right versus wrong
• Message structure:
– Draw conclusion or not (ask question and
get the customer to conclude)
– One versus two-sided argument (we may
not be the largest but we aim to be better)
– Strongest argument first (end
anticlimatic) or last
• Message format:
– How the message will be conveyed
– Sight, sound, colour, and texture
The AIDA model:
–
–
–
–
Attract attention
Hold interest
Arouse desire
Obtain action

Selecting the Message Source
15.13
• A message’s impact will be affected by how the audience views the
communicator
– Messages delivered by highly credible sources are more persuasive
– Use of celebrities to endorse products helps to attract attention, and
consumers transfer feelings to the product
– Use of celebrities can be
dangerous when events (or
their behaviour) tarnish their
reputation
• Collecting feedback on
marketing communications an
important element in the process:
– Measure awareness, attitude,
and resulting behaviour

• Advertising:
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Can reach large masses of geographically dispersed buyers
Large audiences for specific television shows or events
Relatively low cost per exposure; high repetition if desired
Large-scale advertising enhances
seller’s credibility
Visual media allow for showing the
product working or being consumed
Impersonal, and one way,
Not as persuasive as personal contact
Can be expensive to do properly
Difficult to measure effectiveness or
impact on sales
Principles of Marketing: 6th Canadian Edition

15.16
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education Canada Inc.
• Sales promotion:
–
–
–
–
Can include coupons, contests, cents-off deals, premiums
Are used to attract attention, dramatize, and boost sales
Offer strong incentive for trial
Easier to track and measure influence
on sales
– Effects are short-lived, and may hurt
brand equity rather than help it
• Public relations:
– News stories, features, speeches,
corporate materials, websites
– More believable than advertising
– Difficult to control content used
Principles of Marketing: 6th Canadian Edition
Nature of Promotional Tools (continued)
15.17
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education Canada Inc.
• Personal selling:
–
–
–
–
More effective at later stages of buyer readiness
Direct contact, two-way communication, flexible message content
Interactive, able to determine effectiveness of message
Very expensive on a per-contact basis, large commitment
• Direct marketing:
– Non-public, immediate,
customized, and interactive
– Well-suited to highly-targeted
marketing approaches, and
building customer relationships
– Can be expensive and not suited to
all products and services
