5 Critera for a good Promotional/Advertising Objective

-Benchmark (starting point/current status) #


-Goal/objective (ending point) #


-Target Market defined (use segregation bases)


-Time pd: when do you hope to achieve goal (date)


-Measurement technique: how will the benchmark/goal be measured (some way to quantify it)

The OBJECTIVE guides other aspects of the plan (3)

1. The Budget


2. Creative


3. Media




objective provides standards from which results can be measured


"Ifyou don’t set a promotional objective any creative execution would appear to bepotentially effective"

1. The Budget

The more change you want to see the more $ it will take




4--> 5 vs 4--> 15

2. Creative

What is it going to look like?/what are we going to emphasize




If we want to convince ppl the store is a fun place to shop = make ad look fun




If we want ppl to better recognize brand name = make name HUGE

3. Media

Where the ad will be placed?




look at TARGET Demographic, psychographic and behavioral (AIO's)

Hierarchy effects/"Communications effects pyramid"

Theoretical model of consumer information/processing


Communications Objectives


-awareness


-knowledge beliefs perceptions


-Liking/attitudes


-Preference


-trial/conviction/behavioral intentions


Sales objective - Repurchase/regular use/sales

Awareness

first order of business


expressed as a %




are you aware of the brand (yes or no)

Knowledge/beliefs/perceptions

attributes you can associate with the brand




expressed as a number




What is the likelihood that brand x is (fill in characteristic)?




unlikely 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 likely

Liking/attitudes

expressed as a #




what is your attitude towards brand x? how do you feel about brand x?




bad 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 good


unfavorable 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 favorable

Preference

expressed as a %




what brand of (name product class) do you prefer?




of all brands do you prefer ours? (yes/no)

Conviction/behavioral intentions /trial

expressed as a #




what is the likelihood you will buy brand x? next time you buy (from product class)?




unlikely 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 likely

Sales/repurchase/action/behavior

expressed as a # or %

Preference vs. attitudes

preferences has competition


(you should PREFER coke over pepsi)

sales objective

Company wants this




-sales = $$$


-you dont make $ with communications objectives

Communications objective

Ad agency wants this




-this is what you can change in customers


-they can not control price, product or place (things that contribute to sales)

When are sales an appropriate objective

-Direct market/advertising: ex 1-800


- Local sales advertising (retail)


- in a mature market (product, price place = stable)


Ifyou advertise when you are in a very stable market then you see a blip in yoursales you can attribute that to advertising/marketing

budget items (where does the $ go?)

-creative/production (someone has to make it)


-media - paying for time slots


-Research


- Miscellaneous - wining and dining (ex. mad men)

Budgeting methods/techniques (how the money is allocated

- % of sales


- All you can afford (affordability(


- Arbitrary allocation


- Competitive parity


- Objective and task

Percent of sales

budget is set as a % of current or anticipated sales

All you can afford

Rev. - Expenses = possibility for ad budget

Arbitrary allocation

sometimes based on the persons mood


- more likely to spend $$ when things seem good

Competitive parity

when you match percentage added to budget by competitors


ex. McDonalds increases (sales/avg. budget)%by 5% then Burger king will increase by 5% as well




** high competitive parityif we match them

objective and task

THE BEST OPTION


1. set promotional objective (ex. increase brand awareness)


2. determine the tasks to meet objective (ex. what kind of medial buys/creative decisions)


3. what is the cost


4. set budget accordingly

Investment vs. expense

expense = cost of doing business



investment = attempting to achieve objective

Viewing as an expense

-Percent of sales & all you can afford - when co. is doing well they spend lots of $ when they are doing poorly they spend less


-Arbitrary allocation - really no objective


-Competitive parity - doing it because we have to

Viewing as an investment

-Competitive parity: because I want to match the competition (dont want to fall behind)


-Objective and task: why am i spending $$, have a specific objective in mind

Considerations when setting a promotional budget

-Companies policies and procedures = amount spend and method ("this is they way we have always done it")


-Ad budget = how much you spend = not the only factor influencing sales (weather, branding, packaging, price, distribution, brand awareness, purchase intentions

Sales response function curve











relationship
between sales $ and ad budget $





          Only one decision you can make - ONLY the x-axis (how
much am I going to spend) = ad budget     

relationshipbetween sales $ and ad budget $


Only one decision you can make - ONLY the x-axis (howmuch am I going to spend) = ad budget

Sales response function curve Scenario


when a competitor goes out of business

moves up (over time)

moves up (over time)

Sales response function curve Scenario


when a competitor doubles its ad budget

moves down 

moves down

Budgeting "effects"

-Nonlinear effect


-Threshold effect


-Carry over effect


-Decay effect


-Competitor effect


-Quality effect

Nonlinear effect

higher promotional expenditures do not necessarily lead to higher sales 
Stop spending when curve flattens out 

higher promotional expenditures do not necessarily lead to higher sales


Stop spending when curve flattens out

Threshold effect

ad budget may not have an effect until you spend a certain amount 

ad budget may not have an effect until you spend a certain amount

Carry over effect

impact of promotional expenditures tends to take place over TIME (spend $ now have long term effect)




-lasting effect = good thing


**you can not demonstrate on the curve (because the sales responsefunction does not have a time function)

2 reasons Carry over effect WORKS

1. Delayed response - ppl dont respond immediately


2. Hold-over - consumers are able to retain information in memory; do not have to see the ad again before buying it

Decay effect

in t he absence of further promotiona the effects of your promotional $ will diminish (BAD THING)




-good will, brand name/awareness, sales all decrease




THIS IS THE #1 REASON WHY ADVERTISERS OVERSPEND = fear of decay effect

Competitor effect

you competitors promotional programs (the amount if $ they spend) will influence how effective your campaign will be

Quality effect

the effectiveness of your ad program depends upon the unique content, presentation and placement of the promotion (not just $ spent)

Major“regulatory” bodies

-government


-self-regulatory


-media,


-consumers / customer advocacy groups

Government (national, state & local)

-State = attorney general


-Local = city ordinances


-National = FTC (federal trade commission)

FTC 3 criteria to determine "Deception" (must have all 3)

1. misleading

2. reasonable consumer


3. Materiality

Misleadingness

-are the beliefs/perceptions that consumers hold as a result of seeing the ad different from reality?




-did the co. misrepresent something




-are omissions fair?

Reasonable consumer

-are individuals who had these "false" beliefs acting reasonably




- a normal reaction to the ad (by ppl from the target market (a noticeable $ of individuals)

Materiality

-do the deceptive claims made in the ad affect/influence buyer behavior to the consumers detriment




-is one of the reasons consumers considered buying the product due to their exposure to & beliefs about "deceptive" claims

FTC "Remedies"

-Prevention (stop something before it happens)


-Restitution (back to status quo)


-Punishment

Prevention

-Trade Regulatory rules (TRR)


-Ad substantiation


-Orders

TRR

industry wide regulations




Ex.Telemarketers calling and saying things that are not true -- FTC establishessome sort of standards that ALL telemarketers have to be held to this TRR

Ad Substantiation

requiring co. to substantiate all claims they make in their advertisements = prove it/evidence



Prove the claim before you make the claim!

Orders (2)

1. Consent order: agree with accusation but dont admit guilt




2. Cease-and-desist order: co. is going to challenge complaint not, going to agree, wants a hearing but stops running the ad

Restitution

back to the status quo (this is NOT PUNISHMENT) - trying to get people back to where they were How were people feeling/doing before




-Affirmative disclosure


-Corrective advertising (is a kind of affirmative disclosure)


-Cooling off pd


-Refunds

Affirmative disclosure

giving you more info


Ex. Surgeon generals warning on cigs

Corrective advertising

makes reference to PAST advertising then tries to correct the wrong




-Must run in similar media at similar "time"


-And spend a certain % on corrective advertising

Cooling off pf.

(typically door-to-door)



-allows consumer to "get out" of contract within 72 hrs


-Allows you to sleep on it - doesn’t need to be any deception

Refund

give $'s back

Punishment

-Fine = need to pay damage

-prison


- UNOFFICIAL = negative publicity

What is the source of FTCcomplaints?

- Consumers


- Competitors (number 1 group)


- FTC looks (ex. Weight loss ads)


- NARB

Media (regulation)

where the ads are placed, all different media have regulations on whichads can be placed on their medium

Consumers & consumer advocacy groups

regulate media

Self Regulatory Bodies

NARC = national advertising review council




-NAD : national advertising division (investigative body)


-NARB (appeals body)

NAD

National advertising division = investigative body ...... someone complains they look into it




Outcomes


-continue


-discontinue


-ask for modification (add disclaimer)

NARB

appeals body ----- whenNAD ruling is challenged or ignored then NARB comes into play (doesn’t go anyfurther than this)




5 people are selected from a pool of people


- 2 come from ad agencies


- 2 that represent advertisers


- 1 consumer
