LO1: Segmentation and
Targeting
• Market segment: a group of customers who
share a similar set of needs and wants.
• Segmentation allows for effective delivery of the
marketing message.
• Segmentation is based on a group of consumers
having similar needs and wants, and also sharing
similar consumption behaviours.

LO1: Segmentation and
Targeting
• Traditionally used after a product launch, segments are based on
how people behave (with respect to a product):
• brand usage
• product category usage
• level of product usage (number of times the product was purchased).
• Online behavioural targeting:
• Tracking visitors’ online site-selection creates a date profile of the
visitor which can be used to place the visitor into a target segment.
Data can include:
• pages visited
• length of time spent on a page
• links clicked
• searches performed.
LO1: Segmentation and
Targeting
• Three simple and effective ways to help you
easily find your target market and demographic

Values and Lifestyle
• Based upon AIO – Activities, Interests and Opinions.
• Demographic segmentation tells us who makes
consumer choices, but AIO suggests why consumers
make choices.
• Has a greater influence on buying behaviour than
demographics.
• More difficult to measure than demographics.
• Example: Gatorade energy drink is marketed to
young males engaging in strenuous exercise (lifestyle
factor).

LO1: Meaning of Colours &
Culture cues
• 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.
• Simile (uses comparisons (as or like) to highlight the
message) (‘car build like a tank’)
• Metaphor (applies a word or phrase to give meaning to
concept or object it does not literally describe – ‘love is a rose’)
• Allegory (characters, figures or events are used in a narrative
or pictorial form to represent difficult-to-advertise products)
Allegory
LO1: Meaning of Colours &
Culture cues
• Culture shapes our values, attitudes and our identity.
• Culture helps define the norms of the society.
• It influences our behaviour

LO2: Advertising Appeals

• Hedonic needs are satisfied when consumers


attend to messages that make them feel
good and satisfy their pleasure needs.
• Informational needs are satisfied by
messages that supply relevant facts and
figures.
• Appeal types: fear, humour, guilt, sex.
LO2: Advertising Appeals
FEAR Appeal
• 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.
LO2: Advertising Appeals
LO2: Advertising Appeals
HUMOUR Appeal
• Humour often involves incongruity resolution. Makes
people laugh and creates a pleasant, more favourable
attitude to both the ad and the brand.
LO2: Advertising Appeals
LO2: Advertising Appeals
GUILT Appeal
• This approach aims to trigger negative emotions; e.g.
breaking the rules or violating standards.
• It focuses on past/future transgressions or failure to care
for others.
• It motivates the individuals to undertake a responsible
action OR to avoid the feeling of guilt.
LO2: Advertising Appeals
SEX Appeal
• 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).
LO2: Advertising Appeals
LO2: Advertising Appeals
COMPARATIVE Advertising
• Compare against competitive offerings.
• Based on claims of superiority.

LO3: Message Execution
LO3: Message Execution
Unique Selling Proposition
• Advertiser claims are based on the superiority of a
product attribute.
• This strategy is most useful when a point of difference
cannot be readily matched by competitors.
LO3: Message Execution
Brand Image Strategy
• Claims are based on psychosocial
differentiation and symbolic
association.
• A brand is given a distinct identity
or personality.
• Uses prestige claims; it rarely
challenges competition directly;
e.g. the transformational
properties of shampoo (how you
will feel after using it).
LO3: Message Execution
Resonance Strategy
• Advertisements that resonate (or reflects) the
audience’s life experiences.
• For example: as you get older you become more
concerned about the wrinkles and the grey hair.
LO3: Message Execution
Emotional Strategy
• Many products are purchased
on the basis of emotion.
• Both negative and positive
emotions can be used to
advertise.
• This form of advertising works
particularly well for jewellery,
cosmetics, fashion apparel and
soft drinks.
LO3: Message Execution
Generic Strategy
• Makes a generalised claim about the brand/product.
• There is no attempt to differentiate offerings (opposite
to USP).
LO3: Message Execution

Pre-emptive Strategy
• A generic claim, but with an added
message of superiority.
• Used when the products in the
category have few functional
differences.
Class Activity - 20 minutes

Module 5
LO1: Campaign Objectives

• Advertising is widely used to meet the campaign


objectives.
• Advertising consumes a major proportion of
marketing budgets.
• Characterised as impersonal and one-way
communication.
• Paid for by the sponsor and predominantly used to
build BRAND AWARENESS.
• Growth areas include digital advertising; e.g.
Facebook, Google and search engines, video content.
LO1: Campaign Objectives

Profit = Revenue – Expenses

Revenue = Price x Volume

Volume = Trial + Repeat


LO1: Campaign Objectives

The traditional view


• The traditional view rejects the use of sales as a
suitable advertising objective.
• Sales volume is the consequence of a host of
factors in addition to advertising.
• The effect of advertising is delayed.
• Sales cannot be accurately assessed.
LO1: Campaign Objectives
An alternative view
• advertising’s purpose is to
generate sales, or gain
market share
• sales measures are
‘vaguely right’.
• The goal of advertising is not
solely to generate awareness,
influence
• expectations, or enhance
• attributes, but rather to generate
• sales.
LO1: Campaign Objectives

A more recent approach


• A more recent view focuses on accountability.
• Measurables include the traditional and
alternative approaches.

LO3: Campaign Strategy
• What are the ethical issues facing the campaign?
• ‘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 positive effect on the
brand.
• Social responsibility should be built into the branding
communications, rather than being an add-on.
• Coca-Cola undertook an education campaign into high
sugar intake.

activity; e.g. loyalty cards
2. non-franchise building; short-term strategy, no
time for customers to build loyalty; e.g. sale price on a
product.

purchasing of the brand.
• Can be directed at trade, retailers or distributors.
LO2: Sales Promotion
Push Vs Pull Strategies
• A push strategy encourages wholesalers and retailers
to increase inventories (at the expense of competitors)
through promotional activities such as personal selling,
trade advertising and trade-orientated promotion (sales
influence, advertising and promotions in the form of
allowances).
• A pull strategy is directed to consumers with the intent
of influencing their behaviour. The goal is to have
consumers seek out retailers who sell the brand by
directing customer advertising or promotions towards
them.

LO3: Public Relations &
Sponsorship
• Public relations (PR) is concerned with the development of
positive relationships between the organisation and its
stakeholders (i.e. customers, employees, shareholders,
governments etc.).
• PR comprises two main strategies:
• PROACTIVE (press and product releases)
• REACTIVE (crisis management)
• Marketing PR (MPR) is an active form of PR activities designed
to maximise opportunities that will improve an organisation’s
marketing communication objectives and outcomes (e.g.
product sales).
• It is argued that MPR offers a more credible and cost-effective
way of facilitating marketing success.
LO3: Public Relations &
Sponsorship
Parramatta Eels rugby league club faced a
nightmare scenario with allegations made regarding
breach of the salary cap.
LO3: Public Relations &
Sponsorship
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.
LO3: Sponsorship Marketing
Selecting Events

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.?
LO3: Sponsorship Marketing
Event Sponsorship
• Creating customised events
- This provides a brand with total control over locations, venues,
scheduling, content, marketing, and sanctioning of the event.
- It removes the problem of ‘clutter’ from too many other sponsors:
e.g. Red Bull’s flying and snowboarding events.
• Sponsorship of a location or team
- Etihad Airlines sponsors Etihad Stadium (formerly the Telstra Dome).
- This type of sponsorship can be difficult to measure.
• Ambushing
- Ambushing occurs when companies create a false impression
of sponsorship:
e.g. Holden flew a red blimp over the MCG during the 2006 Toyota
AFL Grand Final.
LO3: Sponsorship Marketing
Cause-related Marketing
• 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.

LO3: Different types of Sale Promotions


What did you learn from
the video on vUWS
Module 10
LO1: 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).
LO1: Direct Marketing
• 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
LO1: Direct Marketing
• Different forms of media exist for direct marketing:
- postal mail (p-mail) advertising (delivered by the
postal service)
- electronic messaging (email, blogs and social media)
- television
- print media
- door-to-door.
LO1: Direct Marketing
• 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.
LO2: Direct Marketing
• Direct marketing has two basic creative elements:
• copy (the words) – aims to:
• get attention
• develop interest
• offer proof
• motivate consumers
• Overall look
• Does it conform to the existing brand design guidelines?
• Is the style in keeping with the brand’s positioning?
• 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?
LO2: Direct Marketing
• Databases are a fundamental ingredient of direct mailing
advertising.
• Databases can contain information related to:
• current customers
• prospective customers
• buying behaviour
• geographic segmentation
• demographic segmentation
• psychographic segmentation
LO2: Direct Marketing
• Different internal sources can be used to gather
information to populate mailing lists:
• feedback from promotions
• information from warranty cards
• data from registration programs
• participation in rebate programs
• telemarketing efforts.
• For both postal mail and electronic mailing, the
maintenance of the mailing list is critical.
Class Activity – 15 minutes

LO3: Sales Promotion
• Interchangeable with the word ‘promotion’.
• Two type of sales promotions:
1. franchise building; creates loyalty and long-term
activity; e.g. loyalty cards
2. non-franchise building; short-term 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.
LO3: Sales Promotion
Push Vs Pull Strategies
• A push strategy encourages wholesalers and retailers
to increase inventories (at the expense of competitors)
through promotional activities such as personal selling,
trade advertising and trade-orientated promotion (sales
influence, advertising and promotions in the form of
allowances).
• A pull strategy is directed to consumers with the intent
of influencing their behaviour. The goal is to have
consumers seek out retailers who sell the brand by
directing customer advertising or promotions towards
them.

LO2: Marketing Public Relations
• Public relations (PR) is concerned with the development
of positive relationships between the organisation and its
stakeholders (i.e. customers, employees, shareholders,
governments etc.).
• PR comprises two main strategies:
• PROACTIVE
• REACTIVE
• Marketing PR (MPR) is an active form of PR activities
designed to maximise opportunities that will improve an
organisation’s marketing communication objectives and
outcomes (e.g. product sales).
LO2: Marketing Public Relations
• 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.
• Samsung Product Launch:

• Press releases:
- are a tactic aimed at winning positive, free coverage in the media

newsworthy topics
- are delivered to editors and journalists of newspapers, magazines
and other media.
• Product releases:
- announce new products
- provide relevant information, features and benefits about the
products
-can be audio-visual in format.
LO2: Marketing Public Relations

- are news releases quoting CEOs and other
corporate executives
- may address a wide variety of issues (e.g.
industry developments, future sales forecasts and
foreign competition)
- are published in the news section
- carry a significant degree of credibility.
LO2: Marketing Public Relations
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.

LO3: Sponsorship Marketing
Sponsorship involves an exchange between a

with the sponsored activity and market that
association.

LO3: Sponsorship Marketing
Selecting Events

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.?
LO3: Sponsorship Marketing
Event Sponsorship
• Creating customised events
- This provides a brand with total control over locations, venues, scheduling,
content, marketing, and sanctioning of the event.
- It removes the problem of ‘clutter’ from too many other sponsors:
e.g. Red Bull’s flying and snowboarding events.
• Sponsorship of a location or team
- Etihad Airlines sponsors Etihad Stadium (formerly the Telstra Dome).
- This type of sponsorship can be difficult to measure.
• Ambushing
- Ambushing occurs when companies create a false impression
of sponsorship:
e.g. Holden flew a red blimp over the MCG during the 2006 Toyota
AFL Grand Final.
LO3: Sponsorship Marketing
Red Bull aggressively uses sponsorships to
build brand equity.
LO3: Sponsorship Marketing
Cause-related Marketing
• 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.
LO3: Sponsorship Marketing
Westpac is one example of an Australian brand that
uses CRM to connect with customers, potential
customers and shareholders.
