Advertising Strategies
Advertising is the biggest and best way to sell a product because
advertisements are viewed all over the world. Advertisers are very
smart with how they choose to portray themselves as a company and how
they want the product to be seen by people. The ways that people view
products is greatly varied dependent upon the types of advertising the
company uses, some companies appeal to one type of person and
therefore concentrate on that one group of people, an example of this
would be medication for help preventing heart disease and/or slimming
the risk that a person has of suffering from a heart attack.
The power of advertising has grown largely over the past twenty years
and companies are now realising that different methods of advertising
suit different types of people, from the rich down to the not so well
off.
The people who purchase the products that companies are selling are
split into a number of groups including:
The aspirer, people who are most likely to succeed and choose to spend
lavishly on cars, radios and other luxury items that make them feel
more important, owns their own home/apartment and is very often
single.
-And-
The mainstreamer who is seen as a normal everyday person who often has
children and is married, chooses how to spend money wisely and either
owns or rents their home, mainstreamers also often drive family cars.
Imagery is also one of the main parts of advertising which is used
often in an attempt to make people see products differently and
sometimes make people more eager to buy a product, for example ferrero
rocher is portrayed in it’s advertisements as being ...
... middle of paper ...
...h pair of
glasses cost’s, a small bit of text explaining how the lenses react to
the different weather conditions and also how it takes the lenses just
“30 seconds” to change and protect the users eyes more than normal
glasses.
At the bottom of the advertisement is a voucher which claims a free
eye test for the reader but in smaller text, which is often not read
by most people, explains that to claim the offer properly the reader
must purchase a “complete pair of glasses”.
So to conclude, this advertisement is an even mix of both text and
pictures, the advertisement takes up a smaller amount of space then
all other advertisements that I have chosen to write about, I
personally do not like this advertisement because it uses a voucher to
help to sell products but has small text to in a way trick the reader.
The Onion’s mock press release markets a product called MagnaSoles. By formulating a mock advertisement a situation is created where The Onion can criticize modern day advertising. Furthermore, they can go as far as to highlight the lucrative statements that are made by advertisements that seduce consumers to believe in the “science” behind their product and make a purchase. The Onion uses a satirical and humorous tone compiled with made up scientific diction to highlight the manner in which consumers believe anything that is told to them and how powerful companies have become through their words whether true or false.
Visual advertisements are straight and to the point for some people. People do not take into account the visual messaging going on throughout the ad. It takes companies a considerable amount of time to create advertisements that are somewhat appealing to the human eye. By adding bright colors and large letters the ad will grab anyone’s attention. In fact, people will be able to see it and read it from a distance better. To show that there are many of small details in a visual advertisement, look at the Old Spice Matterhorn shower gel advertisement.
First, I looked for an interesting advertisement to write about. I found an advertisement in a Muscle and Fitness magazine. The advertisement is for Vicks NyQuil. The advertisement itself is very, very simple. Roughly ninety percent of the advertisement is merely black, with small white text in the center, spelling out the words "All Night Long." At the bottom is a white border with the slogan "The best sleep you ever got with a cold... medicine." To the right are the top two thirds of a bottle of NyQuil. Very subtly written, in faint grey text, is the Proctor & Gamble copyright.
Every day in today’s world, people encounter advertisements through various media forms such as television commercials, magazine ads and billboards. Through advertisements, advertisers can persuade their viewers to buy their products through persuasive tactics. In a September 21, 2015 Sports Illustrated issue, Gieco Insurance ran an ad which used subtle hidden messages, encouraging words, and appetizing images to create a desire for its product.
Advertising has became a race, a race of passing information to customers in order to change their buying decisions. Because of that, it is difficult to keep the content of an advertisement true to the fact. Facts or benefits of a product are often exaggerated in modern advertisements. Brands create these new images of the product to expand the role of their actual service.
Business success in the market relies on its founding platform, the marketing plan. This is a strategic penetration into a new or existing market. This is important because of the various legal, environmental and structural requirements set for new and existing businesses. However, with a broad business marketing knowledge, there are many paths to success at disposal. The Exceptional Learning Academy and Therapy Services’ marketing plan comprehensively covers the domestic and global product branding strategy, pricing strategy, distribution channel analysis and a detailed evaluation of the prior strategies for optimization of operations. The domestic and global product branding looks at the business logo. The business will have a logo that sums up its basic services and promotes the business as well. Notably, the business as a brand is not just the logo, but is the image of its relationship with consumers and employees. The company plans to embark on quality service delivery to the customers and a professional working environment for the business’ staff. This creates an open and warm working environment and in turn builds the business brand name. This will build the business logo as the global business brand.

We see advertisements all around us. They are on television, in magazines, on the Internet, and plastered up on large billboards everywhere. Ads are nothing new. Many individuals have noticed them all of their lives and have just come to accept them. Advertisers use many subliminal techniques to get the advertisements to work on consumers. Many people don’t realize how effective ads really are. One example is an advertisement for High Definition Television from Samsung. It appears in an issue of Entertainment Weekly, a very popular magazine concerning movies, music, books, and other various media. The magazine would appeal to almost anyone, from a fifteen-year-old movie addict to a sixty-five-year-old soap opera lover. Therefore the ad for the Samsung television will interest a wide array of people. This ad contains many attracting features and uses its words cunningly in order to make its product sound much more exciting and much better than any television would ever be.
Market opportunities for breakfast cereals is vast, some segments of the market have been neglected, most notably that of the over-50’s. Insightful presentations were given at the “Older, Richer, Wiser” Conference that would suggest the over 50’s market segment is targetable.
The Illusion of Advertisements Advertisements are pieces of art or literary work that are meant to make the viewer or reader associate with the activity or product represented in the advertisement. According to Kurtz and Dave (2010), in so doing, they aim at either increasing the demand of the product, to inform the consumer of the existence, or to differentiate that product from other existing ones in the market. Therefore, the advertiser’s aim should at all times try as much as possible to stay relevant and to the point. The advert alongside is simple and straight to the point. It contains very few details but extremely large content with the choice of words and graphics.
Nowadays, advertising is a very big business. Very often is the major means of competing among firms. Furthermore, supporters of advertising claim that it brings specific benefits for consumers.
Advertising uses the power of suggestion to sell a product. In the case of children, a company’s advertisement hopes to suggest that their product is best. Many food companies target children with the hopes that they can influence their parents'choices when it comes to buying a product. The product is a. Animated characters, catch phrases, and toys are used to lure a child to the product. WORKS CITED Dittmann, Melissa. A. (2004, June 6).
Desire the display should create an impression of desirable to the customer, promoting the product & its brand.
...almost guaranteeing a long, prosperous product life cycle that is sure to stay fresh in everyone’s mind.
Advertising has been defined as the most powerful, persuasive, and manipulative tool that firms have to control consumers all over the world. It is a form of communication that typically attempts to persuade potential customers to purchase or to consume more of a particular brand of product or service. Its impacts created on the society throughout the years has been amazing, especially in this technology age. Influencing people’s habits, creating false needs, distorting the values and priorities of our society with sexism and feminism, advertising has become a poison snake ready to hunt his prey. However, on the other hand, advertising has had a positive effect as a help of the economy and society.
