Advertising
We define advertising as any paid form of nonpersonal
presentation and promotion of ideas, goods, or services by an identified
sponsor. Product advertising is an important part of the
marketing mix. Its aim is to increase sales by marketing a product or service
known to a wide audience and by emphasing its positive qualities. A company can
advertise in a variety of ways, depending on how much it wishes to spend and
the size and type of audience it wishes to target. The most common types of
advertising media include: broadcasting (TV, cinema, radio), press (newspapers,
magazines), printed material (brochures, leaflets, catalogues, flyer),
electronic (Internet), display (posters, hoarding/billboards, vehicles, point
to sale), other (trade fairs, word-of mouth, packaging). Different organizations handle advertising in
different ways. In small companies, advertising might be handled by someone in
the sales department. Large companies set up advertising departments whose job
is to set the advertising budget; work with the ad. agency; and handle
direct-mail advertising. Most large companies use outside advertising agencies
because they offer several advantages. The design and organization of advertising campaigns
is usually the job of an advertising agency. Corporate advertising is not directly connected with
increasing sales of a particular product, service, but more with brand image,
or picture a company wants to present to the public. Public relations (PR)
expert specialize in organizing activities and events which generate positive
publicity for the companies. | |
