The, Designs And Produces Communications Software
Introduction
ConnectPlus, designs and produces communications software. Over the decade ConnectPlus has
been extremely profitable, but recently the workers have displayed diminished innovation, higher
turnover and absenteeism, and overall sluggish performance. During this case study I will identify
the causes that could lead to high absenteeism and turnover, suggest specific HRM practices that
could facilitate the company's strategic objectives of growth and innovation, and I will provide a list
describing various criteria by which sales associates could be evaluated.
Main Body
In today's world, it is critical that senior management treat their staff as key players in their
organization. People are its greatest resource and assets to consolidate and become more
competitive much like an investment for better results and to remain profitable. Considering the
human factor as one of the most important asset is imperative to obtain and have at all times the
most qualified, motivated and competitive personnel in your organization.
Jim Heinrich founded of ConnectPlus, was not in need of a human resource department when he
first started, but as his company has grown with over 100 employees; productivity at the company
has decreased. Mr. Heinrich along with senior management has made the decision to establish a
full–time manager to assume sole responsibility for the human resources department, hiring Judith
Thompson to develop the systematic HRM function for ConnectPlus.

Yearly Outline of Communication Design
Week 1 Welcome to your first design module Introduction to Communication Design Within this
week's class we got an Introduction to the Design unit and learned a little bit about what we will be
studying over the next year. We were also given our HTML for our dairy and told about how we will
be creating an online dairy of what we have learned each week and that we will be given research
tasks, which we will write up, and place into our diary. Week 2 This week in class we covered a lot.
We started of by learning about Cave Paintings. Cave paintings paintings can be found on the
ceilings and walls of caves. They have said to be the source of inspiration for lots of designers like
like Picasso and writers and movie directors such as Ridley Scott. Pablo Picasso was a Spanish
painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist and stage designer. He was said to have spent a lot of his
later life in France. Picasso is very well known for founding the Cubist movement. His most well
known works are the proto–Cubist Les Demoiselles d'Avignon and Guernica, a depiction of the
German bombing of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War. In 1890 Picasso was training with his
father. Then in 1893 juvenile standard of his first works falls away. In 1894 Picasso career as Pinter
had started to begin. When it came to 1897 Picasso's realism became tinged with Symbolist
influence, in series of landscape paintings rendered in non–naturalistic violet and green tones. From

Why I 've Done Pretty Well For Myself
When I got started in copywriting, I took the long, uphill battle. I decided I was too good for the
copywriting courses out there (and perhaps too cheap), and turned instead to all the books I could
buy (at bargain basement prices) on Amazon.com.
And honestly, I 've done pretty well for myself. I quickly got a job in a marketing department,
writing copy regularly, and helping out with other marketing activities. I then transitioned to sales,
where I could continue to hone my copywriting abilities while earning a commission selling my
company 's products.
And all along, I chased secret after secret to copywriting success in cheapo books from Amazon.
But, let me tell you a little secret.

Yet, it 's the thinking that sets great copywriters apart from good copywriters... And, this thinking is
what I 've found to be the biggest takeaway from the best–of–the–best copywriting courses out
there.
So, let me answer three of the most common questions around the copywriting courses out there...
With the hope that I can steer you in the right direction for a successful career.
Question 1: "How Do You Evaluate Copywriting Courses?"
When it comes to copywriting courses, I look to the teacher of the course as my single–biggest
factor. And, I have one big question.
"Do they walk the walk?"
Let me use a quick story to illustrate. A famous copywriter got a call from a new potential client.
This client was trying to sell a book about "How to get rich with your own mail order business." The
advertisement wasn 't working well enough, so he turned to this copywriter for help.
So, this copywriter asked, "Have you gotten rich with your own mail order business?"
Can you guess what the answer was? "No." He hadn 't. How much stock could anyone put in his
advice, then? What was the value of learning how to get rich in mail order, from someone who hadn
't done it themselves?
There are crooks and charlatans all over the place who talk the talk, but who don 't walk the walk.
When I 'm looking to invest in a new copywriting course, I ask, "Have they done it? Have they
succeeded as a copywriter?"
If the answer is, "No," that 's my answer to buying the course. Yet, if they

Nasty Gal Case Study
Audiences
Stakeholders can be defined as "any individual or group who can affect or be affected by the
actions, discussions, policies, practices or goals of the organization" (Freeman, 1984: 25) In the case
of Nasty Gal, their stakeholders comprise of a number of publics that they interact with and are
linked with (Esman, 1972; Grunig and Hunt, 1984:141) including current/potential customers, staff
members, investors/stockholders, women, media and political groups. According to the boohoo
website, Nasty Gal's target customer demographic is 18–27 year olds. (Boohoo Group, 2017) The
products are niche and designed for a specific demographic and young girls want to be a part of this
community.
Stakeholder Approach In its rapid growth, Nasty Gal placed an extreme focus on the needs of the
shareholders to the detriment of its stakeholders. The boohoo group is potentially making the same
mistake as by taking on the task of reviving the brand's reputation it places pressure on them to
communicate positive projected financial returns whilst simultaneous managing the expectations of
Nasty Gal's existing customer base. As a result, the company has taken the soft approach in
communicating with the existing customers of the brand by not addressing the pre–existing issues
before the acquisition which has caused consumers to react negatively online. (Racked, 2017) This
approach stems from the deal that the boohoo group made which only included the acquisition of

The BP Oil Spill
Oil covered everything: beaches, animals, plants, bottoms of boats. Approximately 205.8 million
gallons of oil leaked into the ocean and toward the Louisiana shoreline. To put the amount in
perspective, that oil could be used to drive a Toyota Prius around the earth 184,181 times
(Repanich). All of this pollution and destruction because of one singular company: British
Petroleum. Needless to say, the image of BP was tarnished because of this. What can a company do
to come back from such a serious setback? This was the question that was faced by the company in
2010 (when the spill occurred), and is still being wrestled with today. By analyzing BP's
"Commitment to the Gulf" ad campaign, the brand's desired identity is made very apparent. When it
comes to oil, nearly all consumers are involved. However, BP does take specific steps in order to
narrow down a target audience when it comes to advertising its product. Despite the hardships faced
by BP stemming from the spill, consumers still have an addiction to oil. BP, the fourth largest oil
company in the world ("Biggest Oil"), has such a firm hold on consumer society that it is a necessity
in today's consumer landscape. By pushing the brand's identity to its target audience, BP used
branding to overcome a severe controversy and rebuild the image it hoped to convey to consumers.

Advertising And Sexism In Advertising: Discourse Of...
Discourse of Advertising
Advertising is referred to as a form of discourse in the sense that it has influenced not only the
structure of language and the modality of lifestyle, but also the content of routine daily acts of
communicative exchanges. The messages of advertising have permeated the entire cultural
landscape (Hosney 2011). Advertisements are seen as media discourse as they involve language and
social processes. According to Fairclough (1989), "Consumerism is a property of modern capitalism
which involves a shift in ideological focus from economic production to economic consumption,
and an unprecedented level of impingement by the economy on people's lives".

The global beauty industry is enjoying huge worldwide success, and advertising campaigns are a
key way for major cosmetics brands to build a customer base and reap financial benefits. In the
media, women's bodies are presented as a series of 'problems' which need 'fixing' (Ringrow 2012).
The "ideal" woman is stereotyped through visual and textual aspects of the advertisements.
Advertisers use visual and linguistic means to persuade their audience. Beauty is one of the main
focuses of media in general and in advertising in particular. Female beauty is expressed in media
with youthful attributes, including wide eyes, full lips, high cheekbones and flawless skin (Pamela
and Nicholas 2013). Advertisements, magazines, porn, television and film tell women that unless
they are completely hairless, they cannot be attractive, sexy or desirable (to men).It is argued that
"advertising is the most influential institution of socialisation in modern society" (Jhally 1995). This

Government departments sometimes use this form of advertising to bring about a change in attitudes
towards issues of general concern. In some market sectors, advertising may be used as a precursor to
other activities. It may, for example, attempt to provide specific information to the target audience in
order to persuade potential customers to take a sales call. To sell Most advertising seeks to promote
the sale of particular goods or services. To achieve this objective, the advertising provides the
potential or existing customer base with information about the product or service. In the majority of
instances, such advertising seeks to reinforce existing attitudes by explaining how the product is
appropriate to the potential users ' existing needs or lifestyle. Some advertising, particularly that of a
promotional nature, will attempt to persuade the customer to make a purchase now, rather than delay
it until some later time. The advertising will convey a sense of urgency, often by placing some form
of time constraint on the offer being made. This is particularly the case with 'sale ' advertising.
Potential customers are notified of the sale dates and reminded that they can only obtain the
particular 'bargains ' at that time. Similarly, retailers will make 'time–limited ' offers which impose
restrictions as to when customers can take advantage of the offer price. A key role of advertising is

Gender Socialization : Social Expectations And Attitudes...
Every day we come across advertisements, many of them revolve around gender and gender
socialization. Gender socialization is "the process of learning the social expectations and attitudes
associated with one's gender" (Chegg). Our book discusses gender socialization regarding the
expectations for masculinity and femininity (Wood 2015). Most companies use these expectations to
create their advertisements, but some companies contradict the expectations to create a different
vision for gender advertisements. The gendered advertisement campaign that I'm going to analyze
focuses on putting a stop to littering. The advertisement consists of pictures of both a man and
woman and is designed where the company is comparing what a man would say versus what a
woman would say about littering. Key adjectives were expressed in both the man's and woman's
message to show the gendered differences. On the side of the advertisement with the man, it says,
"Bin your litter, it 's the smart thing to do." Whereas the side of the advertisement with the woman
says, "Bin your litter, it's a pretty quick thing to do." The adjectives smart and pretty bring out the
gendered differences in this advertisement campaign. I believe that the adjective "smart" was placed
on the side of the advertisement with the guy because they are considered to be smarter because of
their gender. The adjective "pretty" was placed on the other side of the advertisement with the
woman because women are held to that standard

used in previous campaigns. With the combination of pre–existing and new ideas this ad will appeal
to loyal customers and will hopefully attract new ones. I used a combination of straightsell and
testimonial execution techniques in my print ad. The consumer will get enough information from the
ad copy, and they will relate to the ad since it uses "Real Women" in it's testimonial. The positioning
strategy is pull, since the ad does not list price, a store location or phone number. The appeal used in
the ad is a combination of emotional and rational/informational. A woman would not buy this
product solely based on how it makes her look or feel, there needs to be enough information present
to promote the product's performance. I executed these elements in every aspect of my

How to Create a Persuasive Advertising Campaign

There are many organisations which are well–known and successful in providing comparable
services. Hence why, I am here to support you to accomplish the best proposal for creating a
persuasive advertising campaign for your organisation.
Situation Assessment
As you hold, a solid customer vision from instant knowledge for the potential target market and also
the significance of your services, it is vibrant that you encirclement the essential resource's to make
your company blossom. This is because; you have the inner understanding of your campaign, which
reimburses towards the amenities, provided by you to the market. Thus, the main principal to be
addressed is to create influential brand awareness in 'I'll cook for you', which you are lacking. By
having this, it will help you build a strong brand identity together with sending out a message to
your potential customers, which would be a good fit for your company and your intentions. In order
to generate brand awareness, it's not complicated, though the technique of generating awareness is a
vital aspect of reaching a broader audience. Having a career as a nutritionist, is distinguishing
selling point for your 'I'll cook for you' business; this is because, it will support you to locate
yourself in the market, which will be the key to persuade your customers you are unique. If these

The account executive debriefs the art director and copywriter, who then direct the assembly of the
ad. This may require a fashion shoot by a reputable fashion photographer, a model, make–up artist,
wardrobe artist, props, and lighting assistants.
The finished artwork is assembled digitally in the digital studio by a graphic designer, under the
direction of the art director. Once the ad is completed and proofed, it goes back to the client for final
approval and sign–off. The production department sends the approved ad directly to the magazine,
electronically, to their production department.
The double–page ad appears in the December edition of the magazine.
As shown in the example above, there are a lot of 'moving parts' to producing a 'simple' ad. With so
many moving parts, there are a number of opportunities for things to go wrong or fall behind

famous advertisement; the 1984 Wendy's "Where is the beef?" campaign.
The Wendy's campaign really brought to attention the creative genius of Cliff Freeman. Worthy of

Wendy's burgers were far behind in terms of exposure and sales of the two great burger chains,
McDonalds and Burger King. It was in such an atmosphere and market that Cliff Freeman wanted to

The Success Of The Geico Advertisement Campaign
Advertising Strategy In the past twelve months, there has been one advertising campaign that has
stuck out amongst the rest. This advertisement can not only be seen on television, but also at your
local movie theater before the opening credits. This advertisement campaign is Geico 's "Spy"
commercial. This commercial features a US spy that is combating operatives when his cell phone
rings. When he picks up, his mother is on the other side of the line complaining about his father
refusing to hire pest control to get rid of the squirrels, as it is personal this time. The commercial
then goes on to say, "if you are a mom you call at the worst time, it is what you do. If you want to

wrong time as a familiarity to most. They contrasted this with the James Bond type character being
in the worst situation possible when his mother calls. Of course, the topic would be another familiar

The ad emphasizes more on the merchandise itself, and not the caption accompanying it. This could
be the advertisers trying to pull attention away from the caption, but didn't want to leave it out
entirely as it may have left something to be desired by the viewer. These design characteristics of
the advertisement can cause the viewer to draw incorrect conclusions. The advertisement uses
various rational appeals. The most sincere of these is merely giving the nutritional facts of the
supplement. Showing the protein and BCAAs of the product could attract consumers who are
desiring more protein in their diet, or are taking a supplement that has less nutritional value. In the
caption, the advertisement claims "Scientific studies show that whey peptides can create an insulin
spike that delivers nutrients to hungry muscles." This claim is then left alone with no supporting
evidence, or refence to the scientific study the advertisement is referring to. Even though the claim
could be true, the advertisers just left it unaccompanied in the middle of the caption. One
comparable to this is the phrase "proven to build lean muscle and strength," which is standalone
with no supporting points. These ploys are also trying to raise their product over the competition

Design Of Design Communication And Rhetoric Essay
Whether it is the Blog post by Utile Design, "Design Communication and Rhetoric," or the
Educational paper titled "An Argument for Argument in Architectural Education," both stress an
utmost concern for the lack of education in relation to certain skills that are invaluable in the design
field in Architecture Schools in the United States. These skills include, but are not limited to, well–
rounded critical thinking, written and oral, and interpersonal communication skills in relation to
both design thinking and design process. "Design Communication and Rhetoric" dwells into detail
of why such skills are important, but fails to provide any solution except for a concise census.
However, in "An Argument for Argument in Architectural Education" the authors state the issue and
concern, but also state a solution in which schools can adapt to meet a new agenda. In the Blog post,
the writer analyzes how the methods in which an individual communicates constantly evolves over
the course of the design process. There are five specific target audiences for how one writes, speaks,
and visual conveys an idea in an architectural setting. First is the self, the originator, designer, and

The Negative Influence Of Advertising In Our Life
Advertising has become so prevalent in our lives today due to mass media. It is every form from
print to online through social media and websites, advertising has never had this much importance.
From driving in your car to scrolling through your daily feed every person is exposed to advertising
in a variety of forms.
Since advertising has become so dominant in our daily lives, each advertisement that comes out is
critically analyzed by consumers, and many people see advertising as a very negative attribute in
their lives, while others see it as a positive additive. I believe advertising, when I was younger and
growing, had a more negative influence on my life because of the fact that a lot of the

Due to these various tactics of companies marketing teams, consumers can become influenced very
easily to buy products, myself being one of them. The last time I bought something due to an
advertisement was just a few weeks ago. A bunch of girls on my floor and I were watching a
television show in the lounge and a Dairy Queen commercial came on for their new Blizzard of the
month. Right after all of us saw the advertisement we were all certain that we needed ice cream
from Dairy Queen. On the other hand, advertisements can have the same effect, just in a negative
connotation. Due to the use of certain actors or standpoints, consumers can be drawn to not buy a
company 's product, based on their advertisement. When seeing advertisements I believe I have been
influenced to not buy a product due to its ad campaign. Analyzing the ad campaign I would
intentionally not buy a product if the ad campaign went against any of my values; such as, belittling
a group based on sex or race, smoking, or ads that bring political views into their product, no matter
if I agree with them or not. An example of these ads that I find offensive are, in the past, there was a
societal belief that women were meant to do all the household jobs from cleaning to washing. These
particular ads I find offensive because of the fact that today that perspective of women not being

Written Case Analysis – Adolph Coors
Answer on the Question # 1
Since 1951 to the mid–1970s, Coors enjoyed seamless year–to–year growth in sales reaching 12.3
million barrels in 1974. However, in 1975, sales unexpectedly dropped by 4% and after that despite
considerable growth of the trade area, the increase in sales was accounted only for 2.7 million of
barrels. Coors competitive position deteriorated because of a combination of increasing competitive
environment in the brewing industry and errors of judgment of Coors's management: deficit of
product related to the low capacity of production, long technological cycle of making beer and
massive strikes of workers, as well as problems with distribution connected ... Show more content

The matter of fact, although Coors's trade area grew, the company continued to sell basically the
same amount of beer during a decade from 1975 to 1985. Below the Diagram 1 and the Diagram 2
shows it graphically. The second one was: Coors's competitors, such as Anheuser–Busch and Miller
saw an opportunity (unsatisfied demand on the market) and use it; as a consequence, by 1985, they
surfeited Coors's traditional trade area with their beer. In addition, in 1975, FTC won the case
against Coors and, as a result, the court forbade the Coors to conclude the exclusive contracts. The
third one was: Coors's capacity in production and distribution did not comply with market's
requirements. Coors found itself in such situation, first of all, because of its aspiration to sell the
beer of high quality. For example, Coors aged its beer longer than anyone in the brewing industry,
which not only made a process of production much slower, but also much more expensive. Coors's
aging process was 70 days comparing with an average in the brewing industry, which was no more
than 30 days. Furthermore, Coors did not pasteurize its beer, which not only required additional

Exhibition Proposal
Anti–historicism is a self–explanatory term – to overtly oppose and challenge whatever came
before. Anti historicism plays a large part in the Dada movement, an avant–garde movement said to
have began in 1916's Zurich out of the negative reaction to World War 1. The war demonstrated that
capitalism had outlived the progressive role it once held and now socialism or barbarism was being
offered alternatively. Art also suffered and the alternative for this appeared to be Dadaism. The
movement was ultra–leftist, anti–war, anti–establishment and most relevantly, anti–art.

The first image I propose for the exhibition is of Marcel Duchamp's 1917 'readymade' Fountain.
Fountain is perhaps Duchamp's most famous work and one of the defining pieces of art from the
20th century. In 1917, to have a urinal, lay flat with only a signature was certainly not considered
'art'. It was the most famous of Duchamp's 'readymades', which took an established functional object
and claimed it as the artist's own, perhaps due to it's controversial nature. 'It epitomises the assault
on convention and accepted notions of art for which Duchamp became known.' (Howarth, 2000)
Duchamp attempted to submit his work to the Society of Independent Artists, an organization that
promised that any artist could get their work exhibited for a fee of $6, and was rejected. 'Signing the
urinal "R.Mutt" assured anonymity, and the board took the bait, refusing to exhibit Fountain on the
grounds that it was obscene, was not art, and would bring ridicule on the society.' (Shiner, 2001,
p291). This is a perfect example of how Duchamp challenged and tore apart the conservative views
on what art 'should have been' at the time. By submitting a urinal as a piece of work, he questioned
what art was and pushed what it could be. Anti historicism is described as anti–ornament and losing

3. How raw materials for designed objects are consumed" (99). It will consider the influence and

Although it's true that logos incorporate an influence and a branded personality, there is a trouble in
finding a multicultural common ground. According to Conroy, "people still value [their] cultural
roots" so it would be unwise to suppose that all interpretations are going to be correct. Claiming that
graphic designers can create a global language through graphic imagery and typography is a bold
statement. Since it takes a sender and a receiver to communicate, we must acknowledge that
although "the designer potentially has [influential] power, it depends on the viewer/audience to give
up some kind of control" (Mazutinec). Therefore, Berman refers to Adbusters magazine founder
Kalle Lasn who implies we are only in part responsible by claiming, "that most North Americans
can only identify 10 plants, but can recognize 1,000 corporate brands" (53). It is also important to
recognize that designers are a small part of a large industry that only deserves either part of the
credit, or part of the blame. Either way, is it sad that throughout the world, "the second most

During the launch of their new product, the brand had to communicate the right message to the
target markets. After qualitative analysis, the firms decided to focus on 3 main targets: * First time
mother with baby aged between 4 to 12 months:
Why? The first time mothers were sensitive and more protective and hence their focus will be on
making the right choice for their babies in the selection of products and also since they represent a
large market in Australia.
Objective: Create brand awareness and emotional attachment to the brand; build strong relationship
with the mum to enhance loyalty.
* Second time mother with at least one child under 12 month:
Why? They represent a large target market in Australia, since there is a lack of choice in the baby

Visual And Design, An Art Of Thought And Communication
The understanding of all objects that are made for human use are influenced with the themes of
communication. Designs treat form not only as value itself but also in the means of pleasing and
shaping the appearance of objects for an effect that's intended for whatever. Design can be viewed
as a rhetoric, which is an art of reshaping society, changing the course of individuals and setting
patterns for new action. Technologists argue that technology is part of broader art and design, an art
of thought and communication that can move in other's wide range of beliefs by persuasion, about
practice life for the individual and groups. Rhetoricians are expert in form of intended to persuade
communication. Design is an art of thought directed to action that's practiced through
persuasiveness of objects and therefore design invades the lively expression of ideas that are

The Popularity Of Celebrity Endorsements
When we turn on the TV or flip through a magazine, surf the Internet or scroll through Twitter, it is
impossible to consume media without seeing a celebrity plugging, promoting or pushing a product.
This is not new. Celebrity endorsements have been around for a long time.
We live in a celebrity–fixated world where celebrity endorsements have become common practice
for advertisers, marketers and PR professionals. They provide brand recognition, create buzz and
help drive sales. Since the early 20th century, radio programs had brand sponsors, and hosts grew to
be associated with their sponsor's products. In the decades that followed, we started to see movie
and television stars appearing in endorsements for tobacco brands, athletes appearing on the front of
Wheaties boxes, and even Hunter PR's own client, Jell–O, in partnership with Bill Cosby – one of
the longest spokesperson relationships in history dating back to 1974.
Celebrity endorsements as we've known them are undergoing a transformation, from one–and–done
deals to more authentic, long–term and immersive relationships. The traditional approach of hiring
one spokesperson for one branded effort has allowed brands to generate a quick level of awareness
and meet campaign reach goals. If done correctly, borrowing the equity of a celebrity's image lends
a brand instant clout – whether simply through their social media channels or a more robust
relationship filled with media support and brand advocacy.

We see this in the advert as the car is depicted as a comet or space ship soaring through the
atmosphere, where it meets a ramp which allows it to keep its speed and start driving along the road
at the end of the ramp. This sort of style is aimed more at men because it is an action themed with
the slogan "You dare or you don't" as if it is challenging the audience to prove themselves by buying
their product and driving it to the edge.
According to Belch & Belch (2008: p.298) when using a dramatization approach, it uses drama to
draw the viewer into the action it portrays and when it is successful the audience becomes lost in the
story, for example in Audi's case, they wonder what will happen when it meets the massive ramp
structure, so the advert builds up all the suspense to entice, or capture its audience. The music used
and the sound effect of a rocket also helps build the suspense in a serious tone. The audio, according
to Belch & Belch (2008: p.303) helps establish an image and adds feeling to the advertisement,
which will help the advert have more of an impact on the audience.

What happened because of each ad? Were there protests? Was the ad taken down? Or did the reverse
happen, meaning did the brand thrive because of the controversial ad?
In 1952, this advertisement would not have raised any eyebrow, due to the culture dogma of the
time. Some members of society during that era believed that the white community was superior to
the minority community. Even though this is the era of the Civil Rights Movement, no one marched
or boycotted Van Heusen. These types of ads contain subliminal messages. Surely, this advertising
may have boldly offended many people. Nevertheless, this print ad was obviously effective. Without

Health Cruises, Inc.
Health Cruises, Inc. packages cruises to Caribbean islands such as Martinique and the Bahamas.
Like conventional cruises, the packages are designed to be fun. But the cruise is structured to help
participants become healthier by breaking old habits, such as smoking and overeating. The Miami–
based firm was conceived by Susan Isom, 30, a self–styled innovator and entrepreneur. Prior to this
venture, she had spent several years in North Carolina promoting a behavior–modification clinic.
Isom determined that many people were very concerned about developing good health habits, yet
they seemed unable to break away from their old habits because of the pressures of day–to–day
living. She reasoned that they might have a chance for much greater success in a pleasant and
socially supportive environment, where good health habits were fostered. Accordingly, she
established Health Cruises, Inc., hired 10 consulting psychologists and health specialists to develop
a program, and chartered a ship. DeForrest Young, a Miami management consultant, became the

where now a days, it is most common to digitally download a song or album rather than getting the

their album into 500 million iTunes subscribers' libraries for free, but what they thought was an

communication expressions. Ishizaki explores the development of a theoretical framework of an

concept Ishizaki terms improvisational design is illustrated with five brief case studies in this slim

The adjustments take into consideration the inherent qualities of the medium, the audience to which
it is "played," and the ever–changing nature and flow of the communication. Rather than proposing
a normative design solution or a positive theory of design, this volume introduces an analytical tool
as an "ice breaker" to provoke discussion among designers that may lead to "good" design processes
and certainly, improvisational design extends our thinking about expressive digital communication.
Drawing upon the literature in performing arts and visual design, observations of traditional design
constraints, and models of cooperative–situated agents (Hickman and Shiels, 1991) and Singh's
model of group ability (1991, 1994), Ishizaki discovers that the complex temporal forms are
required in the production of improvisational designs. The notion of temporal form can be expressed
in the design through visual, auditory, or other components. It can change over time. The news story
that is current today may be prominent in auditory and visual signals, but then recede in prominence
over time and do so through the actions of design agents interacting with other dynamic design
agents.
These agents remain under the full control of the designer, although Ishizaki does propose that
computerized tools could be developed to assist the designer. The designer remains in full control of
the birth of the agents and their termination. To illustrate the potential of this

The Importance of Classroom Design in Communication
Design shapes the world we live in and often influences the ways in which we behave in certain
settings. From a young age, we are taught to behave according to certain social standards, and one
of the primary methods with which we display these behaviours is through communication. From
birth, humans must learn to communicate to get what they want and express their emotions.
Although a lot of basic communication skills are taught at home, further development is taught at
school to ensure certain standards are met so that young children will grow up to successfully fit in
among society. These standards do not just exist on the curriculum level, but extend beyond that to
the very space in which the curriculum is taught: classrooms are designed to be the ultimate learning
environment, stimulating learning on every level. The design of a classroom can influence the way
that children interpret information given to them, as well as the way that they apply their knowledge
afterwards.
Children and teachers alike use different methods of communication within a classroom. "Language
is used by teachers to manage their classrooms, determine rules and routines and ensure children are
aware of their expectations" (I CAN, 2008). Children use communication to practice what they have
been taught, to express emotions, and ask questions. These are just some reasons for communicating
in a classroom. There are different methods employed to achieve communication in a classroom and

The Role Of Public Relations On The Fashion Industry Essay
Today we live in a world driven by relationships, first impressions and visual communication. As
human beings we have a tendency to instinctively allow ourselves to react by what we see and feel
at a specific moment, making such reaction unpredictable and capriciously volatile. Studying
relationships is of extreme importance because when we understand why public and individuals
react to stimuli in a certain way, we can try to manipulate the outcome. This is why Public Relations
plays a crucial role in the fashion industry as it is a field of work that is driven by consumers needs
and desires. By understanding the targeted audience, we can actually control commercial,
marketing, and creative outcomes of a specific fashion organization. This piece of writing will
explain and analyse the role and importance of public relations and Communication in the Fashion
Industry.
In order to truly comprehend the role of PR in the fashion industry it is essential for us to first have
a deep understanding of what Public Relations actually means and how it is applied to modern
society. As mentioned before, relationships are not automatic or effortless, they have to be planned
and sustained. Public Relations is a function that helps establish and maintain mutual lines of
communication, understating, acceptance and cooperation between an organisation and its public."
(Harlow, 1976). This is done through different management strategies such as media control, press
releases, promotion, and

Over the decade ConnectPlus has been extremely profitable, but recently the workers have displayed diminished innovation, higher turnover and absenteeism, and overall sluggish performance. During this case study I will identify the causes that could lead to high absenteeism and turnover, suggest specific HRM practices that could facilitate the company's strategic objectives of growth and innovation, and I will provide a list describing various criteria by which sales associates could be evaluated. Main Body In today's world, it is critical that senior management treat their staff as key players in their organization. People are its greatest resource and assets to consolidate and become more competitive much like an investment for better results and to remain profitable. Considering the human factor as one of the most important asset is imperative to obtain and have at all times the most qualified, motivated and competitive personnel in your organization. Jim Heinrich founded of ConnectPlus, was not in need of a human resource department when he first started, but as his company has grown with over 100 employees; productivity at the company has decreased.

Week 2 This week in class we covered a lot. We started of by learning about Cave Paintings. Cave paintings paintings can be found on the ceilings and walls of caves. They have said to be the source of inspiration for lots of designers like like Picasso and writers and movie directors such as Ridley Scott. Pablo Picasso was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist and stage designer. He was said to have spent a lot of his later life in France. Picasso is very well known for founding the Cubist movement. His most well known works are the proto–Cubist Les Demoiselles d'Avignon and Guernica, a depiction of the German bombing of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War. In 1890 Picasso was training with his father. Then in 1893 juvenile standard of his first works falls away. In 1894 Picasso career as Pinter had started to begin. When it came to 1897 Picasso's realism became tinged with Symbolist influence, in series of landscape paintings rendered in non–naturalistic violet and green tones. From 1899 to 1900 was said ...

Question 1: "How Do You Evaluate Copywriting Courses?" When it comes to copywriting courses, I look to the teacher of the course as my single–biggest factor. And, I have one big question. "Do they walk the walk?" Let me use a quick story to illustrate. A famous copywriter got a call from a new potential client. This client was trying to sell a book about "How to get rich with your own mail order business." The advertisement wasn 't working well enough, so he turned to this copywriter for help.

Nasty Gal Case Study Audiences Stakeholders can be defined as "any individual or group who can affect or be affected by the actions, discussions, policies, practices or goals of the organization" (Freeman, 1984: 25) In the case of Nasty Gal, their stakeholders comprise of a number of publics that they interact with and are linked with (Esman, 1972; Grunig and Hunt, 1984:141) including current/potential customers, staff members, investors/stockholders, women, media and political groups. According to the boohoo website, Nasty Gal's target customer demographic is 18–27 year olds. (Boohoo Group, 2017) The products are niche and designed for a specific demographic and young girls want to be a part of this community. Stakeholder Approach In its rapid growth, Nasty Gal placed an extreme focus on the needs of the shareholders to the detriment of its stakeholders. The boohoo group is potentially making the same mistake as by taking on the task of reviving the brand's reputation it places pressure on them to communicate positive projected financial returns whilst simultaneous managing the expectations of Nasty Gal's existing customer base. As a result, the company has taken the soft approach in communicating with the existing customers of the brand by not addressing the pre–existing issues before the acquisition which has caused consumers to react negatively online.

  • 7. The BP Oil Spill Oil covered everything: beaches, animals, plants, bottoms of boats. Approximately 205.8 million gallons of oil leaked into the ocean and toward the Louisiana shoreline. To put the amount in perspective, that oil could be used to drive a Toyota Prius around the earth 184,181 times (Repanich). All of this pollution and destruction because of one singular company: British Petroleum. Needless to say, the image of BP was tarnished because of this. What can a company do to come back from such a serious setback? This was the question that was faced by the company in 2010 (when the spill occurred), and is still being wrestled with today. By analyzing BP's "Commitment to the Gulf" ad campaign, the brand's desired identity is made very apparent. When it comes to oil, nearly all consumers are involved. However, BP does take specific steps in order to narrow down a target audience when it comes to advertising its product. Despite the hardships faced by BP stemming from the spill, consumers still have an addiction to oil. BP, the fourth largest oil company in the world ("Biggest Oil"), has such a firm hold on consumer society that it is a necessity in today's consumer landscape. By pushing the brand's identity to its target audience, BP used branding to overcome a severe controversy and rebuild the image it hoped to convey to consumers.

The messages of advertising have permeated the entire cultural landscape (Hosney 2011). Advertisements are seen as media discourse as they involve language and social processes. According to Fairclough (1989), "Consumerism is a property of modern capitalism which involves a shift in ideological focus from economic production to economic consumption, and an unprecedented level of impingement by the economy on people's lives".

The global beauty industry is enjoying huge worldwide success, and advertising campaigns are a key way for major cosmetics brands to build a customer base and reap financial benefits. In the media, women's bodies are presented as a series of 'problems' which need 'fixing' (Ringrow 2012). The "ideal" woman is stereotyped through visual and textual aspects of the advertisements. Advertisers use visual and linguistic means to persuade their audience. Beauty is one of the main focuses of media in general and in advertising in particular. Female beauty is expressed in media with youthful attributes, including wide eyes, full lips, high cheekbones and flawless skin (Pamela and Nicholas 2013). Advertisements, magazines, porn, television and film tell women that unless they are completely hairless, they cannot be attractive, sexy or desirable (to men).It is argued that "advertising is the most influential institution of socialisation in modern society" (Jhally 1995).

Government departments sometimes use this form of advertising to bring about a change in attitudes towards issues of general concern. In some market sectors, advertising may be used as a precursor to other activities. It may, for example, attempt to provide specific information to the target audience in order to persuade potential customers to take a sales call. To sell Most advertising seeks to promote the sale of particular goods or services. To achieve this objective, the advertising provides the potential or existing customer base with information about the product or service. In the majority of instances, such advertising seeks to reinforce existing attitudes by explaining how the product is appropriate to the potential users ' existing needs or lifestyle. Some advertising, particularly that of a promotional nature, will attempt to persuade the customer to make a purchase now, rather than delay it until some later time. The advertising will convey a sense of urgency, often by placing some form of time constraint on the offer being made. This is particularly the case with 'sale ' advertising. Potential customers are notified of the sale dates and reminded that they can only obtain the particular 'bargains ' at that time. Similarly, retailers will make 'time–limited ' offers which impose restrictions as to when customers can take advantage of the offer price.

  • 11. Gender Socialization : Social Expectations And Attitudes... Every day we come across advertisements, many of them revolve around gender and gender socialization. Gender socialization is "the process of learning the social expectations and attitudes associated with one's gender" (Chegg). Our book discusses gender socialization regarding the expectations for masculinity and femininity (Wood 2015). Most companies use these expectations to create their advertisements, but some companies contradict the expectations to create a different vision for gender advertisements. The gendered advertisement campaign that I'm going to analyze focuses on putting a stop to littering. The advertisement consists of pictures of both a man and woman and is designed where the company is comparing what a man would say versus what a woman would say about littering. Key adjectives were expressed in both the man's and woman's message to show the gendered differences. On the side of the advertisement with the man, it says, "Bin your litter, it 's the smart thing to do." Whereas the side of the advertisement with the woman says, "Bin your litter, it's a pretty quick thing to do." The adjectives smart and pretty bring out the gendered differences in this advertisement campaign. I believe that the adjective "smart" was placed on the side of the advertisement with the guy because they are considered to be smarter because of their gender. The adjective "pretty" was placed on the other side of the advertisement with the woman because women are held to that standard ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

I used a combination of straightsell and testimonial execution techniques in my print ad. The consumer will get enough information from the ad copy, and they will relate to the ad since it uses "Real Women" in it's testimonial. The positioning strategy is pull, since the ad does not list price, a store location or phone number. The appeal used in the ad is a combination of emotional and rational/informational. A woman would not buy this product solely based on how it makes her look or feel, there needs to be enough information present to promote the product's performance.

This may require a fashion shoot by a reputable fashion photographer, a model, make–up artist, wardrobe artist, props, and lighting assistants.

To put this achievement in perspective, we are looking at 1973 before the age of the internet. Today we are able to talk about viral videos on the net, but Cliff Freeman started campaigns that were viral with even limited resources. This success would continue with the next major breakthrough advertising campaign created by Freeman. It was at Dancer–Fitzgerald–Sample that Freeman created his most famous advertisement; the 1984 Wendy's "Where is the beef?" campaign. The Wendy's campaign really brought to attention the creative genius of Cliff Freeman. Worthy of notice is the fact that Wendy's burgers were not as popular at the time of the advertisement. In fact Wendy's burgers were far behind in terms of exposure and sales of the two great burger chains, McDonalds and Burger King. It was in such an atmosphere and market that Cliff Freeman wanted to break into with his ingenuity. He was determined to show the world that Wendy's also had a great product that had a greater amount of beef content. Created in 1983 and first shown on television in January 1984, the advertisement featured three old ladies who were scrutinizing burgers that were resembling the burgers of competitors.

  • 19. The Success Of The Geico Advertisement Campaign Advertising Strategy In the past twelve months, there has been one advertising campaign that has stuck out amongst the rest. This advertisement can not only be seen on television, but also at your local movie theater before the opening credits. This advertisement campaign is Geico 's "Spy" commercial. This commercial features a US spy that is combating operatives when his cell phone rings. When he picks up, his mother is on the other side of the line complaining about his father refusing to hire pest control to get rid of the squirrels, as it is personal this time. The commercial then goes on to say, "if you are a mom you call at the worst time, it is what you do. If you want to save 15 percent on car insurance you switch to Geico. It 's what you do" (Mother Knows Best, 2015). This paper will discuss the success of the Geico advertisement. Success of Campaign The Geico "Spy" advertisement campaign first aired on December 28, 2015. This commercial was a hit from the very beginning. The commercial used mothers calling at the wrong time as a familiarity to most. They contrasted this with the James Bond type character being in the worst situation possible when his mother calls. Of course, the topic would be another familiar situation for most, where the mother is discussing something regarding their father doing something they disagree with, most likely just bored and wanting to talk.

The ad emphasizes more on the merchandise itself, and not the caption accompanying it. This could be the advertisers trying to pull attention away from the caption, but didn't want to leave it out entirely as it may have left something to be desired by the viewer. These design characteristics of the advertisement can cause the viewer to draw incorrect conclusions. The advertisement uses various rational appeals. The most sincere of these is merely giving the nutritional facts of the supplement. Showing the protein and BCAAs of the product could attract consumers who are desiring more protein in their diet, or are taking a supplement that has less nutritional value. In the caption, the advertisement claims "Scientific studies show that whey peptides can create an insulin spike that delivers nutrients to hungry muscles." This claim is then left alone with no supporting evidence, or refence to the scientific study the advertisement is referring to. Even though the claim could be true, the advertisers just left it unaccompanied in the middle of the caption. One comparable to this is the phrase "proven to build lean muscle and strength," which is standalone with no supporting points.

However, in 1975, sales unexpectedly dropped by 4% and after that despite considerable growth of the trade area, the increase in sales was accounted only for 2.7 million of barrels.

Below the Diagram 1 and the Diagram 2 shows it graphically. The second one was: Coors's competitors, such as Anheuser–Busch and Miller saw an opportunity (unsatisfied demand on the market) and use it; as a consequence, by 1985, they surfeited Coors's traditional trade area with their beer. In addition, in 1975, FTC won the case against Coors and, as a result, the court forbade the Coors to conclude the exclusive contracts. The third one was: Coors's capacity in production and distribution did not comply with market's requirements. Coors found itself in such situation, first of all, because of its aspiration to sell the beer of high quality. For example, Coors aged its beer longer than anyone in the brewing industry, which not only made a process of production much slower, but also much more expensive.

The war demonstrated that capitalism had outlived the progressive role it once held and now socialism or barbarism was being offered alternatively.

Fountain is perhaps Duchamp's most famous work and one of the defining pieces of art from the 20th century. In 1917, to have a urinal, lay flat with only a signature was certainly not considered 'art'. It was the most famous of Duchamp's 'readymades', which took an established functional object and claimed it as the artist's own, perhaps due to it's controversial nature. 'It epitomises the assault on convention and accepted notions of art for which Duchamp became known.' (Howarth, 2000) Duchamp attempted to submit his work to the Society of Independent Artists, an organization that promised that any artist could get their work exhibited for a fee of $6, and was rejected. 'Signing the urinal "R.Mutt" assured anonymity, and the board took the bait, refusing to exhibit Fountain on the grounds that it was obscene, was not art, and would bring ridicule on the society.' (Shiner, 2001, p291). This is a perfect example of how Duchamp challenged and tore apart the conservative views on what art 'should have been' at the time. By submitting a urinal as a piece of work, he questioned what art was and pushed what it could be. Anti historicism is described as anti–ornament and losing the aesthetic value of ...

Although it's true that logos incorporate an influence and a branded personality, there is a trouble in finding a multicultural common ground. According to Conroy, "people still value [their] cultural roots" so it would be unwise to suppose that all interpretations are going to be correct. Claiming that graphic designers can create a global language through graphic imagery and typography is a bold statement. Since it takes a sender and a receiver to communicate, we must acknowledge that although "the designer potentially has [influential] power, it depends on the viewer/audience to give up some kind of control" (Mazutinec). Therefore, Berman refers to Adbusters magazine founder Kalle Lasn who implies we are only in part responsible by claiming, "that most North Americans can only identify 10 plants, but can recognize 1,000 corporate brands" (53). It is also important to recognize that designers are a small part of a large industry that only deserves either part of the credit, or part of the blame.

We live in a celebrity–fixated world where celebrity endorsements have become common practice for advertisers, marketers and PR professionals.

According to Belch & Belch (2008: p.298) when using a dramatization approach, it uses drama to draw the viewer into the action it portrays and when it is successful the audience becomes lost in the story, for example in Audi's case, they wonder what will happen when it meets the massive ramp structure, so the advert builds up all the suspense to entice, or capture its audience.

The Miami– based firm was conceived by Susan Isom, 30, a self–styled innovator and entrepreneur. Prior to this venture, she had spent several years in North Carolina promoting a behavior–modification clinic. Isom determined that many people were very concerned about developing good health habits, yet they seemed unable to break away from their old habits because of the pressures of day–to–day living. She reasoned that they might have a chance for much greater success in a pleasant and socially supportive environment, where good health habits were fostered.

  • 40. Argumentative Essay: The Change In The Music Industry Music has been around for centuries, but lately the music industry has been making major changes in how it all works. In the twentieth century music was bought on CD's, cassette tapes and records where now a days, it is most common to digitally download a song or album rather than getting the physical copy. While this is a major change occurring, this isn't the biggest change in the industry currently. The biggest debate is on whether an artist should use their music in advertising campaigns in order to get paid a sum of money. With the music industry being one of the most competitive right now, artists often choose to do ad campaigns as a way to get their music out there all the while getting paid for it. It has been observed though, that doing this could cause catastrophic events in their career. Overall, musicians should not do brand deals for a ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... According to the article "Selling Out Not Worth the Risk" by Darrius Johnson, advertising deals could potentially decrease the artists' popularity. For example the successful rock band U2 did an advertising deal with Apple to advertise their new album Song of Innocence in 2014. This deal put their album into 500 million iTunes subscribers' libraries for free, but what they thought was an intelligent advertising move, ended with catastrophic results for their career. The band faced thousands of fans sending negative feedback on the fact that the album was being forced into their playlists. It was then labeled as "musical spam" and the reputation of both Apple and U2 was forever damaged. This one brand deal they made in 2014 damaged their image indefinitely, further showing that advertising deals can cause more harm than good. While it is proven that advertising deals have the potential to damage an artist's image, it also has the possibility of being over–used and causing the public to stop listening to their ...

Suguru Ishizaki's Improvisational Design: Continuous Responsive Digital Communication Digital communication is interactive, dynamic and continuous. People working with digital communication (visual designers, human–computer interaction professionals, and software engineers) need a unique set of communicative methods that equal this dynamic flow of digital communication expressions. Ishizaki explores the development of a theoretical framework of an iterative process that meets this need and suggests how designers might use the framework. The concept Ishizaki terms improvisational design is illustrated with five brief case studies in this slim nine–chapter book. Ishizaki, a Senior Staff Engineer at QUALCOMM Incorporated, became ...

The adjustments take into consideration the inherent qualities of the medium, the audience to which it is "played," and the ever–changing nature and flow of the communication. Rather than proposing a normative design solution or a positive theory of design, this volume introduces an analytical tool as an "ice breaker" to provoke discussion among designers that may lead to "good" design processes and certainly, improvisational design extends our thinking about expressive digital communication. Drawing upon the literature in performing arts and visual design, observations of traditional design constraints, and models of cooperative–situated agents (Hickman and Shiels, 1991) and Singh's model of group ability (1991, 1994), Ishizaki discovers that the complex temporal forms are required in the production of improvisational designs. The notion of temporal form can be expressed in the design through visual, auditory, or other components. It can change over time. The news story that is current today may be prominent in auditory and visual signals, but then recede in prominence over time and do so through the actions of design agents interacting with other dynamic design agents. These agents remain under the full control of the designer, although Ishizaki does propose that computerized tools could be developed to assist the designer. The designer remains in full control of the birth of the agents and their termination. To illustrate the potential of this ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

From a young age, we are taught to behave according to certain social standards, and one of the primary methods with which we display these behaviours is through communication. From birth, humans must learn to communicate to get what they want and express their emotions. Although a lot of basic communication skills are taught at home, further development is taught at school to ensure certain standards are met so that young children will grow up to successfully fit in among society. These standards do not just exist on the curriculum level, but extend beyond that to the very space in which the curriculum is taught: classrooms are designed to be the ultimate learning environment, stimulating learning on every level. The design of a classroom can influence the way that children interpret information given to them, as well as the way that they apply their knowledge afterwards. Children and teachers alike use different methods of communication within a classroom. "Language is used by teachers to manage their classrooms, determine rules and routines and ensure children are aware of their expectations" (I CAN, 2008). Children use communication to practice what they have been taught, to express emotions, and ask questions. These are just some reasons for communicating in a classroom.
