Advertising Functions Advertising fulfills four basic functions in society: • serves as a marketing function -- helps companies sell products or services • advertising is educational -- people learn about new or improved products or services • advertising plays an economic role -- encourages new competition and lower prices • it performs a social function -- helps increase productivity and raises the standard of living Advertising can be classified several ways • target audience specific people to whom product appeals • consumer advertising goods and services for personal use • business-to-business products for business use • geographic focus targets specific geographical regions • purpose advertising designed to accomplish a distinct goal • primary demand promotes product category, not specific brand • selective demand promotes a particular product or service brand • direct action ad promotes direct, short-term feedback • indirect action ad promotes long-term brand recognition A Brief History of Advertising • Advertising, in a variety of forms, dates to antiquity. The first serious and repeated ads appear shortly after Gutenberg’s invention of moveable type in the form of handbills, posters, and periodicals. • Most newspaper advertising continued to look more or less like crowded classified ads until the 18th century. • Ben Franklin improved the look of ads in his newspapers by using more white space and attractive fonts. A Brief History of Advertising (Con’t) With the advent of mass production in the 1800s came the parallel need for mass consumption and mass markets. That rapid consumer evolution became most apparent after the Civil War ended, helped along in large part because . . . • railroads linked the continent, and linked manufacturers with consumers • • • U.S. population doubled 1870-1900 (more consumers) new media (telephone, typewriter, high-speed printing press, motion pictures, national magazines, photography, and rural mail delivery) increased communication potential people now had more money to spend on new products A Brief History of Advertising (Con’t) • Demand for advertising expertise quickly gave rise to the advertising agency. • Radio networks make national ads a reality in 1920s. • The Great Depression and WW II slow advertising industry growth down during the 1930s, 1940s. • From that time on, advertising content and appeal generally reflects the prevailing mood of the country.

There are four main categories of B2B advertising: . Trade goods and services to wholesalers, retailers . Industrial items used in production of goods, services . Professional services aimed at doctors, nurses, teachers . Agricultural goods and services aimed at farmers Consumer vs. Business Advertising • Target audience in business advertising is much smaller. • Most advertised business products tend to be technical, complicated, and high priced. • Business buyers will be professional purchasing agents, basing purchases on reason and research. • Personal on-site selling plays a much greater role in the business sector. Business Advertising Media Business advertising’s targets are much narrower than the consumer market, so a mix of highly selective media, usually magazines, works best. Two usual formats: horizontal magazines aimed at particular job function without regard to the industry vertical magazines covers all levels and interests within an entire single industry Business Advertising Appeal Business ad copy tends to be long, fact filled, detailed, technical, accurate, and complete, with little, if any, emotional appeal, yet business buyers pay very close attention to these ads and place a premium on data accuracy and completeness. Some of the most common business ad formats are testimonials, case histories, new-product news, and demonstrations End of Chapter 14 Advertising
