11. Developing and Managing an Advertising Program:
Advertising is any paid form of non-personal presentation and promotion of ideas,
goods, or services by an identified sponsor. Ads can be a cost-effective way to
disseminate messages, whether to build a brand preference or to educate people.
In developing an advertising program, marketing managers must always start by
identifying the target market and buyer motives.
Then they can make the five major decisions, known as "the five M’s.“
Mission: What are the advertising objectives?
Money: How much can be spent?
Message: What message should be sent?
Media: What media should be used?
Measurement: How should the results be evaluated?

12. Setting the Objectives:
An advertising goal (or objective) is a specific communications task and
achievement level to be accomplished with a specific audience in a specific
period of time.
Advertising objectives can be classified according to whether their aim is to
inform, persuade, remind, or reinforce.

14. Persuasive advertising:
Persuasive advertising aims to create liking, preference, conviction, and
purchase of a product or service.
Example:
Nescafe, Shan salt, Arial etc.

Reinforcement advertising aims to convince current purchasers that they
made the right choice.
Example:
Automobile ads often depict satisfied customers enjoying special
features of their new car.

17. Deciding on Media and Measuring Effectiveness:
After choosing the message, the advertiser's next task is to
choose media to carry it. The steps here are deciding on desired
reach, frequency, and impact; choosing among major media
types; selecting specific media vehicles; deciding on media
timing; and deciding on geographical media allocation. Then the
results of these decisions need to be evaluated.

18. Deciding on Reach, Frequency, and
Impact:
Media selection is finding the most cost-effective media to deliver the
desired number and type of exposures to the target audience.
The next task is to find out how many exposures, E", will produce a level
of audience awareness of A'. The effect of exposures on audience
awareness depends on the exposures'
reach, frequency, and impact:
8/19/2022
18
19. Reach (R). The number of different persons or households exposed to a
particular media schedule at least once during a specified time period.
Frequency (F). The number of times within the specified time period that
an average person or household is exposed to the message.
Impact (I). The qualitative value of an exposure through a given medium.
8/19/2022

20. Audience awareness will be greater, the higher the exposures' reach,
frequency, and impact.
Weight number of exposure (WE)= Reach * Frequency * Impact

21. Selecting Specific Vehicles:
In making choices, the planner has to rely on measurement services that provide
estimates of audience size, composition, and media cost. Audience size has several
possible measures:
Circulation: The number of physical units carrying the advertising.
Audience: The number of people exposed to the vehicle.
Effective audience:
The number of people with target audience
characteristics exposed to the vehicle.
Effective ad-exposed audience:
The number of people with target audience
characteristics who actually saw the ad.

22. Deciding on Media Timing and Allocation:
In launching a new product, the advertiser has to choose among continuity,
concentration, flighting, and pulsing.
Continuity: is achieved by scheduling exposures evenly throughout a given period.
Generally, advertisers use continuous advertising in expanding market situations, with
frequently purchased items, and in tightly defined buyer categories.
Concentration: calls for spending all the advertising dollars in a single period. This
makes sense for products with one selling season or holiday.
8/19/2022
22
23. Flighting: calls for advertising for a period, followed by a period with no
advertising, followed by a second period of advertising activity. It is used when
funding is limited, the purchase cycle is relatively infrequent, and with seasonal items.
Pulsing: Is continuous advertising at low-weight levels reinforced periodically by
waves of heavier activity.

24. Evaluating Advertising Effectiveness:
Good planning and control of advertising depend on measures of advertising
effectiveness. Most advertisers try to measure the communication effect of an ad—
that is, its potential effect on awareness, knowledge, or preference. They would also
like to measure the ad's sales effect.
8/19/2022

25. Communication-effect Research:
Communication-effect research seeks to determine whether an ad is communicating
effectively. Called copy testing, it can be done before an ad is put into media and after
it is printed or broadcast.
There are three major methods of pretesting. The consumer feedback method asks
consumers for their reactions to a proposed ad. They respond to questions such as
these:
1. What is the main message you get from this ad?
2. What do you think they want you to know, believe, or do?
8/19/2022
25
26. 3. How likely is it that this ad will influence you to undertake the action?
4. What works well in the ad and what works poorly?
5. How does the ad make you feel?
6. Where is the best place to reach you with this message?
