Q3. How creativity enhances IMC? Give logical reasoning with the help of
examples.

Creativity:

Creating means originating and conceiving an idea that would be unique, fresh and would not
have existed before. Creativity is the most efficient way to create memorable, long-lasting
impressions of the product on the target audience.

Role of creativity in campaigns:

Creativity is very important to a campaign's basic mission of informing, persuading and


reminding the customer.

Role of creativity in informing customers

Creativity helps the campaigns to effectively impart their message to the audience. With the
help of a creative idea campaigns can be more attractive to the target audience. A good
example to this would be Fair & lovely’s new Campaign which is known as Glow & lovely.
This advertisement is very creative in the sense that no one has come up with such an idea
before as in this advertisement they are showing bold women doing extraordinary things like
a woman being a football player, tabla percussionist, photographer, bike Enthusiast, boxer. It
tells the women that now is the time to go for their goals, and tells the women that they are
just different shades of the same colour. In this advertisement the writers and music artist
arrange the visuals and verbal message components according to a genre of social meaning,
so that the viewers can easily interpret the message.

Role of creativity in persuading customers

A creative story or idea can establish a unique identity for the product. Consider the example
of the K&Ns advertisements that are shown on television. The ad is creative because it is
pictured beautifully as all the different K&Ns products are shown in a mouth-watering way.
When people see this advertisement again and again they are easily persuaded to buy the
K&Ns products. This advertisement is creative by the use of non-verbal messages. The artists
have governed the use of colour, layout, and illustration.

Role of creativity in reminding customers:


Creativity can transform boring reminders into interesting and entertaining messages.
Consider the example of the Daraz 11/11 sale advertisement in which they kept reminding
the customers that their sale is from 11 th to 17th November in which they are offering mega
deals and cash back offers.

Role of creativity in creating a “boom” in campaigns:

Advertisements that are creative but have a touch of comedy can create a boom factor
considering an old example of the harpic toilet cleaner in which they used comedians from a
Pakistani sitcom known as Bulbulay. The actor Momo brilliantly and hilariously portrayed
the message of a harpic toilet cleaner to be more long lasting and durable for the whole
month at a cheap price.

Role of creativity in product description:

It is very important for an advertisement to creatively portray its product by giving a proper
description. A good example of this would be the Oreo advertisement in which there is a
child celebrity who perfectly describes the Oreo biscuit product by twisting, licking and
dunking in milk. This ad was very creative because it has detail and it shows family
relationships.

Creativity affected by thinking style:

There are two types of thinkers, the first is the value based thinkers who focus on making
advertisements with emotional and metaphorical appeal. The advertisements that they make
are very creative and not concerned with logic. A good example of this would be the Master
Molti foam advertisement in which they show a different stage of life of a small girl that
grows up to be a beautiful wedding her father gives her away with a special gift of master
Molti foam. This advertisement came with the slogan of “Meri nani peri naye ghar ko
chali. The second types of thinkers are fact-based thinkers. ” The advertisements that they
make advertisements which focus on straightforward layouts and rational appeal. A good
example to this would be surf excel advertisement, as in the advertisement they say that. It
would remove even the toughest of stains.
