Create the advertisement 7. Evaluate the advertising campaign 1. The Target Market • Be as specific as possible using the market elements: demographic dimensions, geographic locations, and behavioural dimensions. See pages 216 and 217. • Consider age, gender, nationality, social class, marital status, income, occupation, etc. • What or how does this target group think? How will they respond to your advertisment? 2. Develop Marketing Objectives • The ad campaign is part of the overall business and marketing strategy. • Be specific and include a time frame, e.g. to develop an awareness among teenagers of our brand within 6 months. • Marketing objectives specify the target group. 3. Calculate the Budget Don’t Skip This • Advertising costs money – you can do some research to find out how much TV and Radio ads cost • Time of day is important in advertising – Off-hours is cheaper than during “prime time” 4. Decide on the Key Message • The key message for an advertisement should be stated clearly in one sentence. 5. Decide on the Advertising Medium • Follow decisions on target group, objective, budget and key message with a decision on the advertising medium • Internet, Daily Papers, Posters, Email, Local Papers, Brochures, TV, Magazines and Journals, Mobile Phone, Radio, Mail-outs and leaflets? • New media: Social Networking, Viral Marketing, Videos? 6. Create the Advertisement • KISS – Keep It Simple Stupid! – a key rule guiding advertisement • Create a sense of immdediacy • Repetition sells • Hit the consumer’s “buttons” • Sell the sizzle not the steak – the feel good, excitement • Look to the visuals – use people, colours, anything to create emotional appeal • Design good, simple layouts – use lots of whitespace 7. Evaluate the Campaign • Ads are so expensive that businesses can’t afford not to know if they are effective – so they have to measure their effect • Surveys can find out • Has the ad been seen or heard? • Is the brand recognized? • Can the message be identified? • What level of interest has the ad raised? • These questions can be asked by market researchers Prepare an Ad Campaign • For your marketing plan, include an ad campaign for your product that considers these 7 steps. • Use PowerPoint to assemble the artwork and advertising copy (the words used in your ad are called “copy”) • You may make a movie if you like, please do! But the PowerPoint is required for the assessment, so do it first!
