effect on the customer’s decision-making process

image
• Short-term: ex. increasing store traffic

Determine the Communication Budget
CCHHAAPPTTEERR 11

• Based on the economic principle that firms should
increase communication expenditures as long as each
additional dollar spent generates more than a dollar of
additional contribution
• Very hard to use because managers don’t know the
relationship between communication expenses and
sales

Rule of Thumb Methods
CCHHAAPPTTEERR 11
25
• Affordable Budgeting Method – sets communication
budget by determining what money is available after
operating costs and profits are budgeted.
• Drawback: The affordable method assumes that the
communication expenses don’t stimulate sales and
profits.
15 - 27
Rule of Thumb Methods
CCHHAAPPTTEERR 11
25
• Percentage of Sales Method – communication budget is
set as a fixed percentage of forecasted sales.
• Drawback: This method assumes the same percentage
used in the past, or by competitors, is still appropriate
for the retailer.
15 - 28
Rule of Thumb Methods
CCHHAAPPTTEERR 11
25
• Competitive Parity Method – this communication budget
is set so that the retailer’s share of communication
expenses equals its share of the market.
• Drawback: This method (like the others) does not allow
the retailer to exploit the unique opportunities or
problems they confront in a market.
15 - 29
Allocate the Promotional Budget
CCHHAAPPTTEERR 11
25
• The retailer decides how much of its budget to allocate
to specific communication elements, merchandise
categories, geographic regions, or long- and short-term
objectives
• Budget allocation decision is more important budget
amount decision
High-assay principle: The retailer allocate the budget to
areas that will yield the greatest return
15 - 30
Sales Promotion Opportunity
CCHHAAPPTTEERR 11
25
• Many sales promotion opportunities undertaken by
retailers are initiated by vendors
• To evaluate a trade promotion, the retailer considers:
• Realized margin from the promotion
• Cost of the additional inventory carried
• Potential increase in sales
• Potential loss
• Additional sales
