The role of IMC in branding
A strategic process aimed at enhancing brand equity by:
• providing a consistent message
• targeting a group of consumers
• creating unique mental associations
• optimising long-term value of the brand.

Traditional marketing versus IMC
A fundamental, strategic change from traditional marketing
communications, IMC includes:

• exploring advertising channels outside the traditional mass media


outlets
• a more focused communications method that better targets
selected segments
• expectations from advertising agencies of greater diversity of
communication channels, while still creating a consistent message
• ensuring optimal ROI due to higher levels of accountability
• creating a culture of ethical behaviour.
Ethics in IMC
• What is ethics in IMC?
• The importance of codes of ethics.
• Agency code of ethics.
o Stand up for what you believe is right
o Honour all agreements
o Don’t break the law
o Respect all people
o Strive for excellence in everything you do
o Give clients your best advice, without fear or favour
o Look after your colleagues
o Compete fairly
o Think before you act
o Be honest

objectives
Positioning and targeting
• A brand’s position is directly related to the target segment.
• The position represents the brand’s meaning and shows off its
uniqueness.
• Targeting offers a cost-effective approach to communications.
• Positioning and targeting encompass demographics, values and
lifestyles.
Setting objectives and budgeting
• Communication decisions reflect the brand’s goals.
• Some goals include:
o introduction, building and defending a brand
o developing awareness, recall and intention to buy the brand.
o Common objectives for IMC: facilitate the successful introduction of new brands, build sales of
existing brands by increasing the frequency of use, inform intermediaries about brand
improvements, enhance a brand’s image, generate sales lead, persuade the intermediaries to
stock the manufacturer’s brands, stimulate point-of-purchase sales, develop brand awareness,
acceptance and insistence, increase consumer loyalty, improve corporate relations, counter any
bad publicity about a brand, created good publicity, reduce the effectiveness off competitor’s
communication efforts, provide consumer with reasons for buying immediately, etc.
• Communications decisions should remain cost-effective.

• Increasing accountability related to effectiveness.


The concept of brand equity (Giá trị
thương hiệu)
• IMC should positively affect brand equity.
• A ‘brand’ is a name, term, sign, symbol or
design, or a combination of these elements,
intended to identify and differentiate the
goods and services of one seller to those of
competitors.
• Brand equity is the goodwill (equity) that an
established brand has built up over the period
of its existence.
• Brand equity has also been referred to as the
power and value of brands.

Brand image
• The associations (specific thoughts and feelings)
about a particular brand
• Stored in memory
• Recollections of experiences
• Conceptualised as:
• type
• favourability
• strength
• uniqueness.

Leveraging brand meaning

• Favourable brands do not emerge


automatically.

• IMC should develop a favourable


message and strong, unique
associations

• By leveraging its positive


associations with others, places,
things and people
Enhancing brand equity

• Co-branding, pop-up stores


Extending the brand
• Various marketing techniques allow for the parent brand to be
extended:
• co-branding
• ingredient branding
• products carry multiple brand names
• associations of each brand are likely to be shared
• the names of brands that make up a product can be promoted, leading to
more favourable and stronger associations.

World-class brands
• Some brands have exceptional (global) presence.
• This can be measured globally by researching:
• awareness
• perceived quality
• intention.
In summary, so what is the purpose of marketing
communication?

Fill (2013) uses the mnemonic DRIP to remind us that communications can be used to:
• Differentiate
• Remind (or reassure)
• Inform
• Persuade

But it does more that that. It also

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 5


Details of the elements of the communication process
• This is the sender of the message (e.g. an advertiser or
salesperson) who has ideas about the product to share with
Source the target audience. They encode these ideas by translating
them into symbolic form

• To create brand awareness and recall

• To encourage purchase behaviour

• The message is the symbolic expression of what

to receiver (TV, newspaper, billboards, t-shirt)

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 6


Elements of the communication process (cont.)

• The target audience (current and potential customers) with


Receiver whom the source attempts to share ideas

Communication • The target audience’s experiences or outcomes received,

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 8


Effective communication
• Effective communication ensures that the message
from the sender to the receiver is based on a common
meaning.
• A lack of common meaning can lead to:
• a waste of resources
• an ineffective message.

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 9


Neural cues
• Neuromarketing research shows that certain aural (and other
cues) can be especially appealing to consumers.
• Marketing communication appeals rely on our senses.
• All brand touchpoints, whether company-created or not, have
an impact.

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 10


Communications for the 21st century
• Technology will influence:
• how information reaches consumers
• who seeks out information
• places where information can be gathered, outside of those created by
marketers.

• A two-way communication model for this technology- driven age


needs to be adopted.

Marketing communications and
meaning

• Meaning is developed by accomplishing specific


brand-level objectives.
• Meaning can be derived from a number of
perspectives:
• semiotics
• symbols.

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 13


Semiotics (Ký hiệu học)
• Semiotics is the study of signs and
the analysis of meaning-producing
events.
• Signs are stimuli that may include
both linguistic and
non-linguistic signs.
• Meanings are the thoughts and
feelings evoked by
the stimuli (kích thích).

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 14


Semiotics formula

Signs Meanings
(non-linguistic (perceptions and
stimuli) affective reactions to
a stimuli)

Semiotics

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 15


Signs (Dấu hiệu)
• Signs are the stimuli used to evoke an intended meaning.
• Signs contain no meaning in themselves; they must be paired with a
person’s internal responses.
• Signs are most effective when they are common to both the sender
and receiver.

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 16


Meanings (Ý nghĩa)
• Meanings can be considered the perceptions (thoughts) and affective
reactions (feelings) of the receiver.
• Meanings are evoked by stimuli (signs).
• Meanings are internal and open to individual interpretation, rather
than external.

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 17


Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 18
External influences on meanings
• Marketing communications take place in cultural and social
environments that are already loaded with meaning.
• These external influences (values and beliefs, and artefacts of these
values and beliefs) are learned through socialisation.
• These external influences can influence the internal interpretations of
the marketing communications.

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 19


Symbols (Biểu tượng)
• Symbols are used to establish a
relationship between a brand and a
referent; e.g. Red Bull uses the
picture of two bulls to represent
strength.
• Often the symbolic relationship is
established using figurative, or non-
literal language.

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 20


Three forms of figurative language
Simile (Ví von)
• uses comparisons (as or like) to highlight the message.

Metaphor (Ẩn dụ)


• applies a word or phrase to give meaning to concept or object it does
not literally describe – ‘love is a rose’.

Allegory (Ngụ ngôn)


• characters, figures or events are used in a narrative or pictorial form
to represent difficult-to-advertise products.

Behavioural foundations of marketing
communications

Understanding the behavioural foundations aids in:


• influencing consumers’ brand-related beliefs
• attitudes towards the brand
• emotional reactions to the brand
• ultimately, the choice of brand.

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 24


Head OR Heart
• Analysis of consumer choice should not oversimplify the process.
• Consumer decision-making is very complex and is unlikely to be based on
either:
• pure reason
• cold, logical, and rational

or
• pure feelings
• passionate, spontaneous, irrational.

• Rational (hợp lý) and hedonic (hưởng thụ) models are not mutually
exclusive.

Stages 3 and 4
Comprehension (perception)
• creates meaning outside of stimuli and meanings
• results in interpretation of the message.

Agreement
• does the message provide agreement or dissonance?
• is the message credible, believable, trustworthy?

Stages 5 and 6
Retention and retrieval
• Both processes involve memory.
• Information is received by sensory receptors (eyes, ears, nose).
• Information is processed and stored in long-term memory (LTM).
• LTM is transferred to short-term memory (STM) for processing at a later
time (e.g. when making a purchase).

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 30


The hedonic, experiential model
• The greater the emotional involvement, the greater the influence of experiential processes
• Product consumption results from the anticipation of having fun and pleasurable feelings.
• Examples include:
• performing arts

• plastic arts

• popular forms of entertainment

• fashion apparel

• sporting events

• leisure activities

• recreational pursuits.

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 31


Example of HEM oriented advertising

Prepared by Uyen H. Nguyen 32


CPM and HEM perspectives
• Verbal stimuli and rational arguments are most appropriate in CPM
oriented marketing communications.
• Non-verbal content or emotionally provocative words are most
appropriate for HEM oriented marketing communications.
• However, CPM and HEM are not mutually exclusive as such.

Finally, it is important to remember that no single marketing communications approach,


whether based on CPM or HEM processing, is effective in all instances.

Core IMC concepts
• The central concepts of IMC are attitudes and persuasion.
• They are interrelated

Attitudes Persuasion
1. The role of the receiver in persuasion

• Persuasion: An effort by a marketing communicator to influence the


consumer’s attitude and behaviour in a manner that benefits both
the communicator and the consumer.
• Receiver: Targeted group of consumers with whom the marketer
(source) attempts to share the marketing message.
Persuasion tactics
Factors impacting consumer understanding of message

• Reciprocation: Mutual giving and receiving


• Commitment: Pledging and engaging oneself
• Social proof: Looking at the actions of others to model the correct
behaviour
• Likeability: Easy to like and identify with; include physical
attractiveness & similarity, etc.
Using likeability to appeal to consumers

Attracted the ads


Attracted to ads that make them
supply knowledge feel good and
and facts satisfy their
pleasure need
Product involvement

• Make purchase decisions on limited product and


Low-involvement brand information (not worth the time and effort)
• Without forming a strong attitude (knowledge, act,
products feel)
• Use peripheral cues (celeb, music, humour)

• Make purchase decisions on extended product and


High-involvement brand information (the risk to buy is much higher)
• Form strong, long-term attitudes (Knowledge, feel,
products act)
• Product more information in the marketing message
The nature and role of attitudes
• Attitudes are constructs that cannot be seen, touched, heard or
smelt, but understanding them is central to communicating with
consumers.
• Attitudes are either a positive or negative predisposition towards a
person, an object or an issue.
• Attitudes:
• are learned
• are relatively enduring
• influence behaviour.

12
Elements of the tri-component
model of attitudes
• CogniJve – beliefs (knowledge or thoughts) about an
object or an issue
• AffecJve – feelings and evaluaJons about an object or
issue
• ConaJve – behavioural tendency, which represents a
person’s intenJon to make a purchase
Many consumer decisions progress
from cognition to affect and then to
conation.

Four types of advertising


planning to persuade different
types of consumers for
different products
Elaboration likelihood model (ELM)
• Theory of persuasion and
attitude change that
predicts two forms of
message processing and
attitude change:
• central route
• peripheral routes.
ELM
• ElaboraJon:
• deals with the consumer’s mental ac:vity in response to a marke:ng
message.
• ElaboraJon is a psychological state that:
• categorises mental ac:vity in response to a marke:ng message
• evaluates, engages in and perhaps reacts emo:onally
to the message
• can exist on a likelihood con:nuum ranging from low to high.
Central and peripheral routes
• Central route focuses on:
• message arguments rather than peripheral cues
• acquisition of more information.
• Peripheral route focuses on:
• peripheral cues that involve elements of a message unrelated to the
primary selling points in the message (e.g. background music, attractive
models).
The nature and role of persuasion
• Persuasion aims to ‘guide’ people towards accepting a belief, attitude
or behaviour (B-A-B).
• B-A-B can be related to a tri-component model of attitude.
• Advertisers may:
• appeal to consumers using the CPM approach, or
• appeal to their fantasies and feelings using the HEM approach.

23
2. Channel factors
• The way the message is channelled from
source to receiver has a direct impact on
the persuasiveness of the advertisement.
• Factors that impact on the persuasiveness
of the message:
• the nature of the channel
• the environment of the channel
• the processing time
• the consumer’s knowledge structures
• creating brand benefits.
Message factors
Factors that impact on how the
receiver understands the message:
• message structure
• message appeal
• peripheral cues.
Message structure
Factors that impact the structure of the message:
• order of presentation
• conclusion drawing
• message sidedness
• visual messages.
Message appeal
• Fear appeal
• Humour appeal
• Guilt appeal
• Sex appeal
Peripheral cues
• Music
• Motion
• Intense stimuli
• Celebrities
The role of source in persuasion
A source is a communicator with some marketing communication
capacity. Sources used in marketing communication can be:
• Celebrity endorsers
• Typical person endorsers
Source attributes

Credibility Internalisation

•Expertise •occurs when the


•Attractiveness receiver accepts the
•Trustworthiness endorser’s position
on an issue as their
own.
Ethical issues in persuasion
• ‘Ethics’ describes the belief of what is right or wrong;
what is morally acceptable.
• Ethical approaches that do not vary in the extreme
(do not cause extreme dissonance) can have a
posiJve effect on the brand.
• Social responsibility should be built into the branding communicaJons,
rather than being an add-on.
• Coca-Cola undertook an educa:on campaign into high sugar intake.
Ethics in IMC
• When celebrities, however, act unethically and/unlawfully, that can
impact negatively on their persuasiveness during marketing
communication
• e.g. Maria Sharapova abandons
her brand promise.

Practical budgeting methods

Percentage-of-sales budgeting
• A company sets a brand’s advertising budget by establishing the
budget as a fixed percentage of past or anticipated sales volume.
• This method has been criticised as illogical, as it reverses the
relationship.
• The true is relationship is that sales are a function of advertising.
Sales = f (Advertising) [true relationship]
Advertising = f (Sales) [percent of sales reverses logic]
Practical budgeting methods
Competitive parity method
• This method sets the ad budget by basically following what
competitors are doing.
• Armed with knowledge of its competitors’ budget, it may choose to
match or exceed that budget.
Practical budgeting methods
Objective-and-task method
• This is the most defendable budgeting method. Its sequential
procedures are:
• establish marketing objectives
• assess communication objectives
• determine advertising’s role
• establish specific advertising goals.
Practical budgeting methods
Affordability method
• The affordability method is used by only the most unsophisticated
and marginal firms.
• Only the funds left after everything else is budgeted for are used for
advertising.
• Affordability and competitive considerations influence the budgeting
decisions of all companies, but not to the same extent.
5. Legal and regulatory issues in advertising management
• The regulatory environment is premised on protecting
consumers from unscrupulous practices.

Client Agency
Agencies are the organizations that offer their
expertise and service in one or more fields of
marketing. (Eagle et al. 2020)

Clients are those in possession of a particular


product of service with the objective of marketing

The consistency triangle

• IMC influence stretches beyond


marketing communications to
the organisation’s entire
operations.
• Three messages can be used
to identify inconsistencies.
1. Say
2. Do
3. Confirm

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


Types of creative strategy
• Three categories of styles define contemporary advertising:
1. functional orientation
2. symbolic/experiential orientation
3. category-dominance orientation.

What’s
creativity?

“Their job to turn all of the information regarding


product features and benefits, marketing plans,
consumer research, and communication objectives
into a creative concept that will bring the
advertising message to life” (Belch, 2017, p.270)
MSc. Uyen H Nguyen
Unique selling proposition (USP) strategy

• Advertiser claims are based on the superiority of a product attribute that


is unique and represents a meaningful and distinctive consumer benefit.
• This strategy is most useful when a point of difference cannot be readily
matched by competitors.
• It may force competitors to
imitate or choose a more
aggressive strategy.
Brand image strategy
• Claims are based on psychosocial differentiation and symbolic association.
• A brand is given a distinct identity or personality, particularly in homogeneous
product categories.
• This strategy most often involves prestige claims; it rarely challenges competition
directly; e.g. the transformational properties of shampoo (how you will feel after
using it).
Brand image strategy (cont.)
• Brand image advertising can also be
described as transformational
advertising.
• It associates the brand with a unique set
of psychosocial characteristics (richer,
warmer, more exciting or more enjoyable)
that it would not be typically associated
with to the same degree without
exposure to the ad.
• It endows brand usage with a particular
experience that differs from similar
brands.
MSc. Uyen H Nguyen
Resonance strategy
• Reflects the audience’s life experiences.
• Not focused on a USP or brand image.
Emotional strategy
• Many products are purchased on the basis of emotion.
• Both negative and positive emotions can be used to advertise. It could be
Fear, Humour, Shock, Animation, Sex, Music, Fantasy and surrealism.
• This form of advertising works particularly well for jewellery, cosmetics,
fashion apparel and soft drinks.

Next slide
Generic strategy

• Claims can be made by any


company for that product
category.
• There is no attempt to
differentiate offerings (opposite
to USP).
• It is most likely to be used by a
company that dominates
a product category.

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


Pre-emptive strategy
• A generic claim, but with an added message of superiority.
• Used when the products in the category have few functional differences.
• Most likely to be used by a company that dominates a product category.

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


Application of values in advertising
• Knowledge of values at a segment level
allows advertisers to focus on the
attributes and consequences important to
the consumer.
• This focus helps in achieving a valued end
state from using the brand.
• The MECCAS model conceptualises five
components
and how they should be presented in the
advertisement.

Determining means–end chains: the laddering method
• A research technique is needed to link the concepts of attributes (A),
consequences (C) and values (V).
• One such method is called laddering, which relates to the hierarchy
of relations.
• Laddering involves in-depth, one-to-one interviews.

Corporate image and issue advertising
Corporate advertising
• Focuses on corporation’s overall image, or on economic and social issues relevant to the
corporation’s interests

Corporate image advertising


• Attempts to increase a firm’s name recognition, build goodwill, or identify a firm with
meaningful and socially acceptable activities

Corporate issue (advocacy) advertising


• Takes a position on a controversial social issue of public importance

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


The role of endorsers in advertising

Celebrity endorsers Typical-person endorsers

• Actor, entertainer or athlete • Regular people


• Example: George Clooney • Example: mums promoting
promoting Nespresso washing powder

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


Endorser attributes

Credibility Attractiveness

Effectiveness

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


Endorser attributes: the TEARS model

Credibility (internalisation) –
receivers accept the endorser’s Attractiveness
position on an issue as their own

Trustworthiness (T) Physical attractiveness (A)


• Being perceived as believable, dependable – as • Idea of visual pleasantness is based on an individual’s concept
someone who can be trusted of attractiveness
• Persuasion occurs through identification

Expertise (E) Respect (R)


• Having specific skills, knowledge or abilities with • Admiration/esteem is due to one’s personal qualities and
respect to the endorsed brand accomplishments

Similarity (to the target audience) (S)


• Based on extent to which an endorser matches an audience in
terms of characteristics pertinent to the endorsement
relationship (e.g. age, gender)
Humour in advertising
• Humour often involves incongruity resolution.
• The meaning of the ad is not clear, so the viewer’s cognitive
processing is needed to create meaning. Once the humour is
detected, a pleasant, more favourable attitude to both the ad and,
maybe, the brand is formed.
• Humour is considered by ad agency executives to create awareness.
Use of humour in advertising
Attracts attention to advertisements

Enhances liking of brand and advertisement

Does not necessarily harm comprehension

Does not offer advantage over non-humour in terms of persuasion

Does not enhance source credibility

More successful with established brands

Dependent upon product type

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


Appeals to consumer fears
• Ads appeal to consumers’ fears by identifying
negative consequences of:
• not using the advertised product – for example,
social disapproval by not using toothpaste and
mouthwash
• engaging in unsafe behaviour (e.g. drugs).
• Fear-appeal logic
• Stimulates audience involvement and promotes
acceptance of the arguments.
• Appropriate intensity
• The greater the topic relevance, the lower the
threat intensity that is needed to activate a
response.
MSc. Uyen H Nguyen
Appeals to consumer guilt

• This approach aims to trigger negative


emotions; e.g. breaking the rules or
violating standards.
• It motivates emotionally mature
individuals to undertake responsible
action and reduce feelings of guilt.
• It focuses on past/future transgressions
or failure to care for others.

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


Sex in advertising

• The use of sex in advertising:


• captures consumers’ attention and
retains it for longer
• enhances recall of message points
• evokes an emotional response (e.g.
feelings of arousal or lust).

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


Music in advertising
• An important component of advertising.
• Includes jingles, background, popular and classical music.
• Purpose:
• attracts attention
• puts consumers in positive mood
• makes consumers more receptive to message arguments
• communicates meanings about advertised products.

Next slide

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


Comparative advertising
• Compare against competitive offerings.
• Based on claims of superiority.
• A complex area; difficult to measure.
• Considerations dictating the use of comparative advertising include:
• situational factors
• distinct advantages
• the credibility issue.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iD9XNUYHCNQ

MSc. Uyen H Nguyen


The role of comparative advertising

Enhances brand recall

Promotes better recall of message arguments

Generates more favourable attitudes towards the sponsoring brand

Generates stronger intentions to purchase sponsored brand

Generates more purchases

May be perceived as less believable (than non-comparative advertising)

“Move Ahead” campaign objectives:
• Increase in consumer emotional connective Ø Reached through customised messages
• More effective spending Ø Reached by integrating online media channels
with TV ads
Eg: Use print media to provide coverage of 60% of the target audience over 12-month period in HCMC
12
Phạm vi/Tỉ lệ tiếp cận (Reach)
Định nghĩa: Phạm vi/Tỉ lệ tiếp cận (Reach) là tỷ lệ phần trăm đối tượng
mục tiêu của nhà quảng cáo được tiếp xúc với ít nhất một quảng cáo
trong khung thời gian đã thiết lập.

• Tuy nhiên, ai nhìn và nghe thấy những gì thì


rất khó đo lường. (OzTAM TV)

• Do vậy, nếu chỉ sử dụng Reach thì sẽ


không hiệu quả

13
Các yếu tố quyết định phạm vi

• Số lượng và sự đa dạng của phương tiện


truyền thông được sử dụng; tức là càng
nhiều phương tiện truyền thông, phạm vi
tiếp cận càng lớn
• Sự đa dạng trong một phương tiện truyền
thông duy nhất, chẳng hạn như hai tạp
chí hoặc số lượng tạp chí lớn hơn.
• Thời gian trong ngày thông điệp được
truyền đạt, ví dụ như giờ vàng (19h00)
• Cần quan tâm đến Effective Reach

14

(in millions)

© Statista 2021 15
Tần suất (Frequency)
Định nghĩa: Tần suất biểu thị số lần trong một khoảng thời
gian mà đối tượng mục tiêu sẽ được tiếp xúc với các phương
tiện truyền thông.

• Tốc độ tần số cao hơn có thể đạt được thông qua


việc lặp lại quảng cáo.

• Tỷ lệ tần số cao hơn sẽ có tác động lớn hơn


đến người tiêu dùng đưa ra lựa chọn mua
thương hiệu nào.
Cơ hội nhìn thấy thông điệp truyền thông (Opportunity
To See) là khả năng đối tượng mục tiêu có thể
nhìn/nghe thông điệp truyền thông khi nó xuất hiện
trên phương tiện truyền thông 16
Vậy có bao nhiêu lần tiếp xúc? (Exposures)
• Việc tiếp xúc được đo lường bằng cách tiến hành nghiên cứu
thị trường liên tục. Tuy nhiên, nghiên cứu thị trường liên tục là
tốn kém và mất thời gian; vì thế:
ØQuy tắc a rule of thumb (ROT) đã được chấp nhận, và chủ yếu là
dựa trên giả thuyết ba lần tiếp xúc (three-exposure hypothesis).

Số lần tiếp xúc Ảnh hưởng thế nào?

1 Đây là gì?

2 Sản phẩm/dịch vụ này của


nhãn hàng nào ?
3 hoặc hơn Gợi nhớ lại

17
Vậy có bao nhiêu lần tiếp xúc? (Exposures)
• Việc đo lường số lần tiếp xúc sẽ dựa trên việc tiếp xúc với thông
điệp được truyền tải hơn là việc tiếp xúc với các phương tiện
truyền thông.
• Ví dụ như khi xem TV, người nhận thông điệp có thể sẽ không ngồi xem
hết thông điệp trong khoảng thời gian đó.
• Mặc dù ba lần tiếp xúc được coi là tối thiểu, nhưng không có con
số tuyệt đối nào sẽ đúng cho mọi quảng cáo.
• Vì quảng cáo không chỉ dựa trên số lần mà còn dựa trên nội dung sáng
tạo có hấp dẫn và có tính liên quan hay không.

18
Thời gian biểu sử dụng phương tiện truyền thông

• Câu hỏi đặt ra là làm thế nào ngân sách cho các phương tiện truyền
thông được phân phối xuyên suốt chiến dịch?
• Có 3 cách thức xây dựng thời gian biểu cho việc sử dụng phương
tiện truyền thông.
1. Liên tục
2. Gián đoạn
3. Hỗn hợp

Three Methods of Promotional Scheduling (Belch, 2021)


19
Đặc trưng của các loại thời gian biểu sử
dụng phương tiện truyền thông
Ưu điểm Nhược điểm
Liên tục • Sử dụng như một lời nhắc nhở liên tục đối với • Chi phí cao
Continuity khách hàng • Có khả năng dẫn đến sự tiếp xúc quá nhiều
• Bao quát toàn bộ chu kỳ mua hàng • Giới hạn khả năng phân bổ truyền thông
• Cho phép ưu tiên truyền thông (số lượng giảm
giá, các địa điểm được ưu chuộng…)

Gián đoạn • Chi phí truyền thông chỉ trong chu kỳ mua • Tạo ra nhiều lượt tiếp xúc hơn và lợi thế hơn so với
Flighting hàng đối thủ, điều này làm gia tang khả năng lạm dụng
• Cho phép sử dụng hơn một loại phương tiện hoạt động truyền thông, khiến việc truyền thông
truyền thông hoặc chương trình truyền thông thiếu tác dụng.
với ngân sách giới hạn • Làm thiếu sự hiểu biết về nhãn hàng
• Việc ưu thích và ghi nhớ thông điệp xúc tiến trong
các thời điểm không thực hiện hoạt động truyền
thông
• Dễ tạo ra lỗ hỗng đối với nỗ lực cạnh tranh trong
suốt quá trình không được lên lịch.
Kết hợp • Giống như hai phương pháp trên • Không cần thiết đối với sản phẩm theo mùa vụ
Pulsing (hoặc các sản phẩm theo chu kỳ khác).

Thời gian biểu liên tục và không liên tục

Thời gian biểu liên tục Thời gian biểu không liên tục
Trong thời gian biểu liên tục, khoản chi phí Tùy thuộc vào thời gian của chiến dịch, việc
quảng cáo tương đối bằng nhau được chi trả phân bổ thời gian biểu không liên tục có thể
trong suốt chiến dịch. được thực thi. Ví dụ trong những tháng mùa
đông, Coca-Cola có thể giảm chi phí quảng cáo
- và tăng nó vào mùa hè.

Hai loại hình thời gian biểu không liên tục


bao gồm thời gian biểu gián đoạn (fighting)
và thời gian biểu kết hợp (pulsing).

21
Phân bổ không liên tục
• Thời gian biểu gián đoạn (fighting) và thời gian biểu kết hợp (pulsing)
có mức độ chi phí quảng cáo khác nhau xuyên suốt cả năm.
• Sự khác biệt:
• Thời gian biểu kết hợp (Pulsing schedule) – số lượng tiền quảng cáo được chi
tiêu trong mỗi giai đoạn của chiến dịch, nhưng số tiền thay đổi theo từng giai
đoạn.
• Thời gian biểu gián đoạn (Flighting schedule) – chi tiêu rất đa dạng trong suốt
chiến dịch và trong một vài tháng thì không có chi phí nào.

Sự tiếp xúc thúc đẩy khách hàng đưa ra quyết
định mua hàng (Recency planning)
• Truyền thông tại thời điểm khách hàng đang có ý định mua sắm sẽ tác động mạnh mẽ hơn tới
khách hàng.
• Do vậy nhiều nhiều nhà truyền thông chú ý nhiều hơn tới giảm tần suất tiếp xúc và tập trung vào
các hoạt động tiếp cận khách hàng với mục đich thúc đẩy khách hàng đưa ra quyết định mua
hàng.
• Nguyên tắc dựa trên 3 ý kiến liên quan đến nhau:

thấy rằng việc tiếp xúc ban

khiến cho mức độ hữu ích cao
nhất.
• Tiếp xúc sau đó cho thấy lợi
nhuận giảm dần.

25
Mức độ sử dụng quảng cáo (Weight)
Mức độ sử dụng quảng cáo được xác định nhằm cho thấy lượng quảng cáo cần thiết để
đạt được mục tiêu truyền thông.

Ba số liệu có thể được sử dụng để xác định mức độ sử dụng quảng cáo.
1. Điểm đánh giá chung - gross rating points (GRPs)
2. Điểm đánh giá đối tượng mục tiêu - target audience rating points (TARPs)
3. Điểm đánh giá hiệu quả - effective rating points (ERPs).
This is a This is a This is a
sample text. sample text. sample text.

26
Điểm đánh giá chung - Gross rating points (GRP)

• GRP phản ánh tổng trọng lượng mà một lịch quảng cáo cụ thể đã phân
phối.
• Đây là một trọng số gộp, có thể bao gồm một đối tượng trùng lặp.

Reach (R) Frequency (F)

GRPs
Cụ thể hơn, GRP là tổng số điểm ratings hay tổng số lần tiếp xúc với thông điệp truyền thông
trong khoảng thời gian thông điệp xuất hiện trên phương tiện truyền thông.

GRPs là cách đo lường cũng nhận được nhiều ý kiến khác.
• Một sản phẩm trong giai đoạn giới thiệu của nó cần mức độ tần số cao hơn.
• Chẳng hạn, nếu kế hoạch A có phạm vi đạt tới 90 lần*tần số 2.0 = 180 (GRP) và kế hoạch B có
phạm vi đạt tới 52 lần*tần số 3,2 = 166 (GRP) thì trên danh nghĩa, kế hoạch A có GRP tốt hơn;
nhưng trong khi sản phẩm đang trong giai đoạn giới thiệu, kế hoạch B sẽ phù hợp hơn.

29
Điểm đánh giá đối tượng mục tiêu –
Target audience rating points (TARPs)
Một biến thể quan trọng của GRP.

• Trong khi GRPs đo lường tổng số khán giả tiếp xúc với thông điệp thì
TARPs chỉ đo lường số lượng khán giả tiếp xúc với thông điệp thông qua
1 phương tiện truyền thông cụ thể.
• Do đó, TARPs là thước đo GRP đã được điều chỉnh. TARPs là thước đo
chủ yếu nhắm tới đối tượng tiềm năng nhiều hơn.
30
Cách tính TARP
(Dựa trên Regional TAM Australia)

https://www.regionaltam.com.au 31
Điểm đánh giá hiệu quả - Effective rating points (ERPs)
• ERPs là thước đo hiệu quả của thời gian
biểu sử dụng phương tiện truyền thông.
• Thước đo hiệu quả này xem xét:
• Tần suất các thành viên của đối tượng mục
tiêu có cơ hội được xem thông điệp quảng
cáo từ một thương hiệu cụ thể
• Một quảng cáo đến được với đối tượng mục
tiêu không quá ít hoặc quá nhiều lần
• Tiếp cận hiệu quả được sử dụng để đo lường
tính hiệu quả nhưng không được vượt quá
sự tiếp xúc với các phương tiện truyền thông

Cách tính từ RAB New York 32


Ảnh hưởng đến sự lựa chọn
thương hiệu
• Nhu cầu của người tiêu dùng xác định tính hiệu quả
của thông điệp.
• Một thông điệp truyền thông có hiệu quả nhất khi
được tiếp xúc với người tiêu dùng đang có xu hướng
quyết định có nên mua hàng hay không.
• Logic là việc tiếp cận người tiêu dùng khi họ đang có
xu hướng đưa ra lựa chọn (tiếp cận), sẽ hiệu quả
hơn so với việc tiếp cận ít người tiêu dùng thường
xuyên hơn (tần suất).

33
Tối ưu hóa phạm vi tiếp cận hàng tuần
• Nguyên tắc recency planning cho thấy thời gian biểu sử dụng phương tiện
truyền thông nên gần như liên tục và nên:

ngân sách để tiếp cận duy trì 100% đối tượng


ảnh hưởng hơn là dạy
tiếp cận người tiêu dùng nhiều người tiêu dùng nên mục tiêu (ít nhất một lần
người tiêu dùng (trái với
khi họ sẵn sàng mua được cân đối thường mỗi tuần) và duy trì điều
mô hình ba tiếp xúc)
xuyên hơn này trong suốt cả năm.

34
Bước 3: Chọn danh mục
phương tiện truyền thông

• Sau khi thiết lập mục tiêu truyền thông, nhà hoạch định truyền thông cần
xem xét việc sử dụng các phương tiện truyền thông và chương trình/loại
hình khác nhau.
• Phương tiện truyền thông (Media); ví dụ:phương tiện truyền thông in ấn (tạp chí).
• Chương trình truyền thông (Vehicle); ví dụ: tạp chí cụ thể được sử dụng (Báo Phụ
Nữ).
• Do đó, cần tính đến thói quen sử dụng phương tiện truyền thông của đối
tượng mục tiêu.
• Một kế hoạch sử dụng phương tiện truyền thông có thể được sử dụng để
tăng độ phủ sóng, phạm vi và tần số.
35
Bước 4: Dự toán ngân sách
• Mô hình truyền thông liên tục có nhiều đặc điểm hấp dẫn, nhưng rất ít nhà truyền thông
có ngân sách để duy trì mô hình này.
• Không có mô hình nào là hiệu quả nhất ở mọi lúc.
• Các quy tắc về lập ngân sách phải linh hoạt và nhà truyền thông cần điều chỉnh chiến
lược của mình sao cho phù hợp với hoàn cảnh của họ.
• Chỉ một phần nhỏ dân số sẽ bị ảnh hưởng bởi thông điệp truyền thông; ví dụ: một quảng
cáo cho một chiếc xe hơi có thể sẽ chỉ ảnh hưởng đến những người trên thị trường quan
tâm đến việc mua một chiếc xe mới.

Truyền hình CPM TV sử dụng dữ liệu xếp hạng. Một chương trình có 1.643 triệu người xem và

40
Hạn chế của CPM và CPM-TM

• CPM và CPM-TM có thể hữu ích để so sánh hiệu quả của các phương
tiện khác nhau.
• Truyền hình ban ngày có thể có CPM thấp hơn truyền hình thời gian
vàng, nhưng có thể kém hiệu quả hơn đối với một số sản phẩm.

41
Một cái nhìn khác: chỉ số hiệu quả (efficiency index)
• Mục tiêu của chỉ số này là chọn ra thời gian biểu phù hợp cho việc sử
dụng phương tiện truyền thông nhằm tạo ra giá trị tiếp xúc cao nhất trên
mỗi GRP.
• Sự lựa chọn thời gian biểu cho việc sử dụng phương tiện truyền thông
đến từ thời gian biểu thay thế:
• Quy trình bao gồm:
• ước tính exposure utility cho từng mức độ tiếp xúc của phương tiện
(hoặc OTS)
• tính toán sự phân bổ hiển thị của các lịch trình truyền thông khác nhau
• xác định giá trị ở mỗi cấp độ OTS và sau đó tính tổng trên tất cả các
cấp độ OTS
• phát triển chỉ số bằng cách chia tổng giá trị cho mỗi lịch trình cho số
GRP được tạo ra cho lịch trình đó.

42
Phân bổ tần suất và định giá của hai lịch trình

43
Tiếp cận hiệu quả (Effective reach) trong thực tế
• Có nhiều ý kiến về vấn đề này. Tuy nhiên, sau đây là các ý kiến được phổ biến
rộng rãi:
• Ít hơn ba lần tiếp xúc trong thời gian bốn tuần là không hiệu quả
• Nhiều hơn mười lần tiếp xúc trong thời gian bốn tuần được coi là lãng phí
• Sử dụng khả năng tiếp cận hiệu quả có khả năng dẫn đến một chiến lược đa dạng
hơn, không xem truyền hình như là phương tiện truyền thông độc quyền.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 11


Network television advertising
• Network television advertising reaches potential customers
throughout the country via network and local affiliates.
• The cost of advertising on television depends on the time of day, the
popularity of the program and the time of year (typically highest in
cooler months, June to September, because people tend to stay
indoors).

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 12


Spot television advertising
• The national advertiser’s alternative to
network television advertising is spot
advertising.
• Advertising is placed only in selected
markets.
• Spot advertising is compatible with
growing regional-oriented marketing and
geo-demographic segmentation
of consumer markets.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 13


Syndicated advertising

• Syndicated programming occurs when an


individual company (e.g. Disney or
Columbia TriStar) markets a television
program to mulLple network-affiliated or
cable television staLons.
• The programs can be original producLons
or shows that first appeared on network
television and are subsequently shown as
reruns.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 14


Subscription advertising cable television

• Narrow areas of viewing interest (narrowcasting).


• May be a less expensive means to reach an audience.
• Cable subscribers are more economically upscale and younger.

Brand or product placement
• Advantages of product placement in TV programs include:
• potentially larger audiences
• more frequent exposure
• global reach.
• Five types of placement.
• The brand needs to be displayed in a context that appropriately matches the brand’s
image.
• Product placement involves potential loss of control.
• Most effective when not seen to be an advertisement
for the product.

Out-of-home advertising (OOH)

• Billboards are the major segment of OOH.


• Other mediums for marketing messages include:
• bus shelters
• transit vehicles (buses, taxis, trams)
• shopping centre displays.
• The common element of OOH
advertising is that it is seen outside
of the home.

https://oaaa.org/Portals/0/Images/Charts/Charts%20-%20Media%20Formats%20-%2020.03-01.png
Billboard advertising

• Creating brand-name recognition is the primary objective.


• Billboards are located in areas with significant pedestrian or vehicular
traffic.
• Traditional billboard space is usually sold on a monthly basis.
• Design considerations include:
• letter visibility
• colour visibility
• distance comprehension.
Billboard advertising (cont.)

• Digital billboards (DOOH) have


been a significant
development, offering
animated advertising
(as opposed to static displays).
• Digital billboards offer quick
updates/changes and
can be sold for very specific
time periods; e.g. sale or
promotion week.
• DOOH represents 50% of total
OOH revenue.
Example
• Coca-Cola uses digital billboards to engage with the audience.
Transit advertising
• Transit advertising:
üis designed so that the audience comes into contact with advertisements
while they are moving or in transit (in an interior or exterior setting)
ümay occur on or in buses, trams, taxis, phone booths, toilets, bus shelters
and kiosks
ücan appear on the exterior or
interior of the vehicles
üfull body displays are used on
New Zealand taxis.
Other types of OOH
• Additional forms of out-of-home advertising include:
üaerial advertising (e.g. aircraft pulling banners)
üblow-ups or blimps (used to create excitement and interest)
ümobile billboards (used on trucks or
trailers or attached to a person). Mobile
billboards are very effective in
areas of high traffic intensity.

• Geographic flexibility
• Difficult to measure
• Low cost per thousand audience size
• Prominent brand

Packaging
• Seen as more critical to IMC.
• Offers a five-second advertisement each time the consumer looks at
the packaging.
• Critical when considering consumers spend as little as ten seconds
before moving on or selecting an item.
Aims of packaging

• Draws attention to the brand


• Breaks through competitive clutter at point of purchase
• Justifies price and value to customer
• Signifies brand features and benefits
• Conveys emotionality
• Motivates consumers’ brand choices
Packaging structure
‘Sensation transference’ (assigning characteristics of the package to the
brand) can be created through:
• colour
• design and shape cues
• packaging size
• physical materials in packaging.

Viral marketing
• Viral marketing is a technique for creating
interest in a marketing message.
• The process includes seeding the message
and influencing a small group of people to
create a positive word-of-mouth experience.
• This experience is often referred to as ‘buzz’.
• The seeding may include something as
simple as emailing a promotional message to
a number of recipients, who then forward
the message on.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 14


Online communities
• Online communities are places
where groups of people with similar
interests gather together in a virtual
community to share ideas and
opinions.

• The company can monitor the


interactions to gain a better insight
into marketing messages that will
resonate with their consumers.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 15


Other social media strategies
• Contributing to blogs
• Comments that are not perceived as spin can enhance the company’s
image and provide useful information to consumers.
• Social bookmarking
• Unlike search engines that provide suggestions, which may or may not be
relevant to the user’s interest, social bookmarking utilities provide highly
relevant resource links to the topics.
• RSS feeds
• These feeds provide a standard (and automated) approach to
disseminating digital material to recipients.

2. Owned media
• ‘Owned media’ means companies do not have to pay for advertising
on other websites.
• The aim of owned media is to connect sales to further brand-building
interaction.
• Some current owned media assets include:
• corporate websites
• corporate blogs
• podcasts
• emails
• SMSs
• apps.
25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 20
Corporate websites, blogs and podcasts
• Corporate websites, blogs and podcasts can
act as advertising for the company.
• Owned websites allow companies to interact
with consumers; blogs represent comments; Nestle’s corporate websites
and podcasts are usually a downloadable
audio file, such as those offered to radio
listeners.
• Interaction with the company may include:
• positive and negative feedback
• sign-up areas that gives the company
‘permission’ to keep in contact with the consumer Business Insider blog
Podcasts
• offers of specials.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 21


Email

• A modern-day postal service that offers


inexpensive, speedy and customised
communication.
• Usually a customer needs to agree to receive
this type of communication.
• Customised emails can include:
• newsletters
• promotions
• recommendations (Qantas suggesting places to
visit because
of a warmer/cooler climate).

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 22


Access on the go
• More than one billion smartphones are in use.
• Tablet growth is outpacing PCs.
• ‘Access on the go’ is driving a new age of
electronic media, through:
• SMS, MMS, apps and direct access to the web
wherever you are.
• Mobile connection at any time of the day
offers:
• new value to companies and customers
• altered cost structures of advertising budgets.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 23


Search engines
• Search engines have become a common way of attaining
information; e.g. reviews of products.
• Search engines provide information based upon:
• algorithms (unsponsored results)
• paid results (ads).
• ‘On-page’ strategies adopted by marketers include:
• relevant keywords for higher page rankings
• relevant page content
• trusted external links that may be useful to visitors
• creating relevant page titles and pages that facilitate the spiders’
search process.
25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 24
Some criticisms
of digital marketing

• The cost-effectiveness and ease of use of digital media has led to a


perception of overuse and abuse.
• These criticisms have led the Australian federal regulators to
introduce protection from such behaviour.
• One such protection is called the Spam Act 2003, which prohibits
the sending of electronic messages without consent.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 25


3. Paid media
• Goals of paid media include:
• driving traffic to places where sales can be made
• building brand equity
• generating sales.
• Types of paid media include:
• search engines
• display or banner ads
• social media
• sponsored blogs.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 26


Banner advertisements
• Banner ads are a static or dynamic image located
on the user’s destination web page.
• Banner ads encourage the users to pass through to
the advertiser’s web page.
• This behaviour is known as a ‘click-through’, and is
measured in a click-through rate (CTR).
• Even without a click-through, the brand may
achieve brand awareness, simply by being
displayed.
• New technology allows marketers to place specific
banner ads on the pages of those most likely to be
interested in the product based upon their recent
search behaviour.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 27


Social media

• Other than the ‘owned’ social media webpages, companies may gain
awareness on social media websites though paid and unpaid
impressions, such as:
• paid sponsored stories
• paid ads with social messages
• unpaid stories about friends
• unpaid page publishing.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 28


Rich media
• New forms of digital advertising are
emerging:
• streaming video
• pop-ups
• interstitials and superstitials
• digital video ads.
• These new ad types create a more
animated experience than banner
ads.
• They also risk creating higher levels
of annoyance.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 29


Inside games and virtual worlds
• Companies such as Coca-Cola and Sony offer interactive games that
revolve around their brands.
• Advertising to people involved in gaming and virtual reality can build:
• brand familiarity
• brand preference.
• This occurs because of an active interaction between the person and
the brand, rather than a viewer who passively views a banner ad.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 30


Advertising via behavioural targeting

• Higher levels of segmentation


can be attained by tracking and
using a person’s online
behaviour.
• Companies can be employed to
provide advertisers with a
person’s search behaviour.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 31

Measuring the effectiveness


1. Measuring digital media effectiveness

• Unlike traditional marketing, digital marketing can be more easily


measured and in real time.
• The aim is to choose key effective measures.
• The measure chosen depends upon the objectives.

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 33


2. Measuring corporate websites

• Diagnostic tools exist to measure ‘visits’ to a website.


• Google Analytics is one tool that offers information to different layers
of the company.
• Executives
• Which segments are most valuable? Which initiatives are working?
• Marketers
• Where users come from, important keywords, which ad is most effective.
• Content developers
• Who stayed the longest and what did they look for?

25/10/2021 MSc Uyen H. Nguyen 34


3. Measuring social media

• Social media metrics is currently an


under-utilised tool.
• A survey found only 8% of
companies had an ROI measure for
social media expenditure.
• Social media metrics include:
• word-of-mouth buzz, media mentions,
brand likes, reach, engagement, share
of voice, and others.

7. Trade-oriented promotions
1. Direct marketing
• The objective of direct marketing (DM) is to
encourage purchases (or other immediate
responses).
• DM aims to seek out the ‘best prospects’ to
achieve the objective.
• DM is an interactive process that does not
merely pass on information.
• In DM, when frequency increases, awareness
falls dramatically (unlike other forms of
advertising).
How direct marketing works
• Marketing material is sent directly to the customer.
• Mail (post and email) is synonymous with DM.
• Responses to DM are most likely to be the purchase of the brand, but other forms of
responses exist, such as attending an event or providing personal information.

Objective The purpose; what is to be achieved (the measurable)

Media The vehicle to be used

Creative The way in which the message is presented

Database The system that holds the information on the audience

Fulfilment Implementation of the campaign through to delivery


Objectives of a direct marketing campaign
• Objectives will vary from campaign to
campaign, but general objectives exist to
receive:
üorders for a product
üentries in a competition
üenquiries
üregistrations for a launch event
üvisits to the company website
üexpression of interest.
Crowdsourcing
• Crowdsourcing is a recent phenomenon that involves
the audience functioning in roles that would normally
be assigned to employees.
• Crowdsourcing involves two-way engagement with the audience.
• Activities could include:
o designing the product
o offering their story about the product’s value
o creating a promotional campaign.
Crowdsourcing examples

Casella Wines used crowdsourcing to


create the perfect beer.
Direct marketing media
Different forms of media exist for
direct marketing:
üpostal mail (p-mail) advertising
(delivered by the postal service)
üelectronic messaging (email, blogs and
social media)
ütelevision
üprint media
üdoor-to-door.
Features of DM media
Types of DM media Description

P-mail targeting, measurability, accountability, flexibility and efficiency.


Electronic messaging targeting, personalisation, efficiency, effectiveness, measurability/accountability,
speed and safety.
Television less personalisation than mail-outs; infomercials are part of the landscape; large
exposure; excitement can be generated through (non-static) celebrities; benefits can
be easily displayed (demonstrations); can be expensive.
Print large exposure; comfortable (less invasive); creative approaches; synonymous with
clutter; difficult to pass on the excitement factor; magazine readership is not always
in an opportune location to respond (dentist’s office, car servicing shop); less
targeted than direct mail so acts more as a broad-brush approach.

Door-to-door leaflet/brochure/sample; delivered to the door; reduces waste; often used as a


follow-up to television advertising; door-to-door becoming less common because it
has been perceived as aggressive.
Creative for direct marketing
Direct marketing has two basic creative elements:

Copy (The word) Overall look

Aim to: • Does it conform to the existing brand


• get attention design guidelines?
• develop interest • Is the style in keeping with the
• offer proof brand’s positioning?
• motivate consumers • Does the visual reflect the quality of
the product?
• Does it fit to the restrictions (size,
weight, colour, etc.)?
• Does the style reinforce the key copy
messages?
• Does the design aid attention,
interest, proof and action?
Databases and fulfilment
• Databases are a fundamental ingredient of direct mailing advertising.
• Databases can contain information related to:

ücurrent customers
üprospective customers
übuying behaviour
ügeographic segmentation
üdemographic segmentation
üpsychographic segmentation.
Database objectives
Databases need to be kept up-to-date to ensure the advertising can

optimally target
allow for create long-term
current and
customised relationships with

customers

calculate the
enhance
lifetime value of a
advertising
customer or
productivity
prospect.
Lifetime value analysis
• Each entry in the database should be considered a long-term asset.
• Each asset has an associated net present value (NPV), which
translates into the profit a company can expect from the average new
customer over an expected number of years that customer is retained
on the list.
• Two functional elements of NPV are the retention rate and average
yearly sales.
Mailing lists
• For both postal mail and electronic mailing, the maintenance of lists is
critical.
• Lists help in segmenting customers for specific messages.
• Data can be acquired from various sources, including internal or
external (such as purchasing from other companies or purchasing lists
from companies dedicated to creating and maintaining mailing lists).

Disney (US) has a list of 31 million customers,


gathered from the company’s various entities
Mailing list population (internal)

• Different internal sources can be used to


gather information to populate mailing lists:
o feedback from promotions
o information from warranty cards
o data from registration programs
o participation in rebate programs
o telemarketing efforts.
• For both postal mail and electronic mailing, the
maintenance of the mailing list is critical.
Data mining

• Data mining is the technique of using customer data to deliver a high


level of segmentation.
• Data mining involves using the information in databases to form
relationships.
• Example: a credit card company can use data from purchases to
estimate when a repeat purchase is needed. This data can be sold to
companies, which can then use direct marketing to those prospects.
Fulfilment
• Fulfilment is often the final link in the DM chain.
• It is the logistical act of serving a response, and includes:
ürecording responses
üproviding contact information
üpicking, packing and despatching
üinvoicing
üforecasting
üanalysing and reporting
üfilling of envelopes and postage.
2. Sales promotion

• Interchangeable with the word ‘promotion’.


• Two type of sales promotions:

franchise building: creates loyalty and non-franchise building: short-term


long-term activity; e.g. loyalty cards strategy, no time for customers to build
loyalty; e.g. sale price on a product.

• Manufacturers use this technique to encourage purchasing of the


brand.
• Can be directed at trade, retailers or distributors.
Push versus pull strategies

• encourages wholesalers and retailers to


increase inventories
A push strategy • through promotional activities
• personal selling, trade advertising and trade-
orientated

• is directed to consumers with the intent of


influencing their behaviour.
A pull strategy • The goal is to have consumers seek out
retailers who sell the brand

Unprofitable Either/Neither
Sales promotion trap
Increased sales do not mean increased profits

• Consumers are generally highly responsive


to deals.
• During periods of discounting and coupons,
sales will increase (revenues increase), but
this may not lead to an increase in profits.
• The increase in promotional costs can
outweigh the increase in revenue.
• The profitability of the promotion lies in the
consumers’ responsiveness.

Experiential marketing
• Experiential marketing is marketing that the consumer wants to get
involved in.
• Often involves giving the opportunity to try the product.
• Often used in
conjunction with sales
promotion and sampling.
• Example: Crust Pizza
Banquet Bike.
Trade promotions

• Directed to intermediaries in the distribution channel.


• The purpose of trade promotions is to:
üintroduce new or revised products
üincrease distribution of new package or sizes

üincrease or maintain shelf space
üincrease display space outside normal shelf space
ücounter competitors’ promotions.

Performing the sales role

A salesperson needs to undertake some or all parts of the sales


presentation process.
The sales presentation process includes the following stages:

Pre-approach Approach Presentation Demonstration Negotiation Close Serving the sale


The sales role

• The degree of involvement in the stages of the process depends on


the specific sales role.
• But, before undertaking this process, the salesperson needs to
determine if the potential customer is worthy of contact.
• Prospecting for clients is based on two elements:

Lead generation Qualifying


Lead generation
• Lead generation is an element of prospecting for customers by
researching potential customer information.
• Sources include:
• directories
• trade shows
• seminars and conferences
• direct marketing campaigns
• cold calling
• referrals
• networking.
Qualifying
• Qualifying is another element of customer prospecting. Through a
filtering process, it identifies the best focus of attention.
• Researchers can ask the following questions:
• Is the person financially able to purchase?
• Does the person have the authority to purchase?
• Is the person able to make the buying decision?
• Is the person in the market for this product?
Performing the sales role

Pre-approach Approach Presentation Demonstration

• Activities prior to • Seeing customers; • Identify needs • Suitability of the


seeing customer generating interest in product is essential
salesperson and • Present a solution

• Formulating a plan minutes of contact • physical product
• charts, graphs
• testimonials
• simulations

• videos
Performing the sales role (cont.)
Negotiation Close Servicing the sale

• Overcoming buyer • Different approaches • As important as any


resistance and to closing an order other step
addressing concerns include: • Helps develop longer-
• The optimal outcome • trial close term relationships and
is where both parties provides additional
‘win’ • direct close value
• summary-of-
benefits
• assumption close
• silence
Stage 1: Pre-approach
The pre-approach refers to decisions made before a salesperson approaches the prospect.

• The key pre-approach decisions are: the


objective, background research, a presentation
plan.
• Possible objectives of a sales call
include: giving a prospect information,
reminding a prospect you’re in the industry,
identification of customer needs.
• Valuable background knowledge
includes: information on the prospect and
industry, information on the customer’s
environment.

• Developing a presentation plan means:


considering the objectives and the best way to
achieve them.
Stage 2: Approach

• Personal sales may be undertaken by telephone or


face-to-face.
• It is essential that rapport is established within the
‘four-minute barrier’.
• Appearance is important in making a positive
impression.
• Methods of establishing rapport include:
• paying compliments
• talking about topical issues
• trying to identify a link between the salesperson and the
customer.
Stage 3: Presentation

• It is not just about presenting the product.


• Identify customer needs and match those needs to
the product.
• Listen actively.
• Focus on linking customer requirements to product
features.
• Adopt a consultative selling approach.
Stage 4: Demonstration

• The aims of a demonstration are to:


• support claims about the product
• reduce perceived risk
• stimulate ownership.
• Common demonstration tools include:
• the physical product
• models
The demonstration stage can make the
• charts and graphs most of any selling situation.
• testimonials
• simulations
• photographs and videos.
Stage 5: Negotiation

Anticipate and prepare for buyer concerns Create alternative solutions

Know the value of your offering Find points of agreement

Validate the problem Do not lose your temper


Stage 6: Close
Trial close
01 Ask questions about the buyer’s
intentions, such as, ‘If it was in black,
would you buy it?’

Direct close
‘Do you want to place an order?’ 02
Summary of benefits
03 Outline everything the customer will
get with a purchase

Assumption close
How will you be paying for this today?’ 04
Silence
05 27
Stage 7: Servicing the sale

• Success is based upon relationship-building.


• Methods include:
• follow-up phone call after a few months to check if customer needs anything
more
• sending the customer additional information or complementary products.
Salesperson performance

• Salesperson performance is typically evaluated quantitatively; e.g. by:


• number of units sold
• dollar volume
• number of newly created accounts.
• No single factor may explain salesperson performance adequately. It
may depend on:
• the salesperson’s own resources
• the nature of customer’s buying task
• the customer–salesperson relationship.
Six characteristics determining salesperson
performance (1–3)
Aptitude Skill level Motivational level

• Interests, intelligence and • Individual’s learned • Amount of time and energy

marketing communications tool include:

Product Communication
Involvement
complexity effectiveness

PR vs MPR
Public relations (PR) is concerned with the Marketing PR (MPR) is an active form of PR

employees, shareholders, governments etc.).
product sales).
PR comprises two main strategies:
1. proactive
2. reactive.
Marketing PR (MPR)

• MPR has a greater focus on customers and products.


• Rising costs and increased cynicism from customers has given MPR a greater role
in marketing communications.
• It is argued that MPR offers a more credible and cost-effective way of facilitating
marketing success.
• The internet has increased consumers’ desire for ‘authentic’ information.
• MPR messages are seen as more credible than PR because they are reported by
journalists.
MPR in action

When used effectively, MPR can introduce brands. Case studies


show that brands such as eBay, PlayStation, Starbucks and The Body
Shop were all introduced with low cost, because they used MPR to
gain awareness.

Two important qualifications are needed for


MPR.
1. The product should have a level of
uniqueness to provide interest.
2. Once the newsworthiness of the product
is lost, paid advertising needs to support
the product.

Reactive MPR

• The public relations response to a crisis management type situation is


called reactive MPR.
• It aims to repair the company’s reputation, prevent market erosion
and regain lost sales.
• Quick and positive responses are imperative:
• e.g. the recall of Mars and Snickers products by Masterfoods Australia
following an attempt at extortion.
• Corporate response and crisis management
• Not all consumers are equally influenced by negative publicity.
• However, a quick and effective response is always required.

• The Parramatta Eels rugby

Influence of digital media on MPR
While negative publicity has always been a corporate
concern, the Internet (particularly social media) has
had the effect of speeding up negative word-of-mouth.

This means timely responses are important in


avoiding a loss of brand equity and a loss of
sales.
Sponsorship marketing

• Sponsorship involves an exchange between a sponsor (brand)


and the person, organisation, location or event that is to be
sponsored.
• The sponsored party receives a fee.
• The sponsor obtains the right to associate itself with the sponsored
activity and market that association.
Types of sponsorship in PR
Consider potential sponsorship of:

• Awards
• Cultural events
• Sports
• Exhibitions
• Causes

Is the event consistent with the brand image?

Does the event reach the target audience?

Is this event one that the competition has previously sponsored? Is there a risk that consumers will
forget the actual sponsor?

Is there a risk of a clutter of sponsors and/or ambush marketing?

Does the event complement existing brand sponsorships?

Does the budget support the sponsorship costs and potential by two to three times what it cost in
advertising, point-of-sale, promotions etc.?

Cause-related marketing (CRM)
• CRM involves giving support, often in the form of funds, to
charities or causes.
• CRM is an amalgam of PR, sales promotion and corporate
philanthropy:
• e.g. when a company pledges to contribute to a designated cause
every time the customer undertakes some action that supports the
company and its brands.

Corporate image advertising
• In the advertisement there is little focus, if any, on the products and
services of the organisation:
• e.g. an organisation may develop a positive corporate image by informing the
audience of its philanthropic activities.
• To attract a positive reaction, an organisation’s claims must be
genuine.

Example: BP believes in

advertising.
PR & Crisis communication
A crisis is an event which causes the company to become the subject of
widespread, potentially unfavourable, attention from the
international and national media and other external groups e.g.
customers, shareholders, politicians, trade unions etc as well as from
employees.

NB: Our role is to manage the communications around the phases of


the crisis rather than the crisis itself- and good communications can
make a difference to the crisis’ impact on corporate reputation

Crisis Response Strategies (Benoit 1997)
Benoit (1997) identified five message strategies:

Five message Details


strategies
Denial This approach disputes that the event actually occurred or attempts to shift
the blame.
Evasion of This approach claims that the event was provoked, was beyond the control
Responsibility of the organisation or was the result of the accident
Reducing This approach involves either attempting to minimise the event or taking
Offensiveness steps to reduce the impact on the victim through compensation.
Corrective Action This requires that the company rectifies the damage caused and takes steps
to avoid the possibility of it happening again.
Mortification This approach is an admission of responsibility, with an apology or
statement of regret.

31
Communicating in a crisis: general advice
Public relations advice: tell it all and tell it fast
• Provide full, prompt and frank information to the media
• Bad news does not improve with age- so may not be able to wait until all the
facts are in
• In saying nothing, an organisation is perceived as already having made a decision
• ‘No comment’ suggests ‘guilty’ to most people.
• When information gets out quickly, rumours are stopped
• So, aim to terminate the crisis quickly, limit the damage, and restore credibility

Essentials of effective evaluation

• To remain relevant (gain influence and resources), marketers need


to measure their performance.
• No single research tool will provide all of the measures to validate
the effectiveness of a campaign; therefore a suite of tools is used.
• The measures should look to enhance brand equity (brand
awareness and image), and the effect the campaign has on
consumers’ attitudes and behaviour towards the brand.

How to evaluate

• A range of measures can be used.


• Measures range from paper-and-pencil instruments to physiological
devices.
• Choice of method depends on the specific objectives of the marketing
communications campaign.
• Methods can also depend on the unique characteristics of the
market.

13
Ideal measure
• The ideal measure should:

üshow effectiveness in terms of sales
üinclude reliability and validity (can be repeated with
similar outcomes)

The future of evaluation
• Digital technology is rapidly becoming the tool of choice for
evaluating online and traditional promotions.
• Some digital methods of evaluation include:
• mobile marketing
• social media monitoring
• digital attribution measurement.

22
Relevance of marketing

To show relevance, marketers should establish the following


credentials.
• Provide an insight into future opportunities.
• Create differentiation and brand equity, leading to loyalty.
• Give customers a voice in company decisions.
• Use resources effectively.
• The processes leading to the development of marketing objectives should be
of a high quality (such as research, briefs and strategy development).

23
PACT Principles
The shared views of PACT Agencies on the fundamental principles underlying a good copy testing system

Principle I A good copy testing system provides measurements which are relevant to the objectives of the advertising.
Principle II A good copy testing system is one which requires agreement about how the results will be used in advance of
each specific test.
Principle III A good copy testing system provides multiple measurements – because single measurements are generally
inadequate to assess the performance of an advertisement.
Principle IV A good copy testing system is based on a model of human response to communications – the reception of a
stimulus, the comprehension of the stimulus and the response to the stimulus.
Principle V A good copy testing system allows for consideration of whether the advertising stimulus should be exposed more
than once.
Principle VI A good copy testing system recognizes that the more finished a piece of copy is, the more soundly it can be
evaluated and requires, as a minimum, that alternative executions be tested in the same degree of finish.
Principle VII A good copy testing system provides controls to avoid the biasing effects of the exposure context.
Principle VIII A good copy testing system is one that takes into account basic considerations of sample definition.
Principle IX A good copy testing system is one that can demonstrate reliability and validity.
Principle X 1 Take baseline (i.e., pre-exposure) measurements and / or use control groups.
