Focus Question 3 Advertising and Promotion
Advertising  Advertising is a powerful tool.  A good advertisement can be very persuasive in influencing people to buy a particular product. Advertisements for fitness and exercise services can be found in or on magazines, newspapers, television home shopping channels, commercials, radio and the internet.  Commercial fitness centres do letterbox drops of flyers promoting their facilities
Promotions aimed at enticing the consumer to buy a product or service can often sound too good to be true.  It is important that consumers take the time to investigate the product or service they wish to buy before committing time and money to it
Common words in fitness advertising
How do you know what to believe? The first step in finding out who to believe is by checking to see if the product or service is endorsed by a recognised fitness or health institution.  Does the person offering the service have any qualifications?  What is the basis of their expertise?  These are things you should investigate when determining the reliability of the source of information. Generally, well-recognised brands and products endorsed by Australian fitness industry or health organisations such as the Heart Foundation are reliable.
Questions 1. What information is provided about the personal trainer ? 2. Who is the advertisement targeting? 3. What does the advertisement offer? 4. Using the website information, list other information that you require to make an informed decision about the use of a personal trainer. 5. What do you think would be the benefits of the service? 6. How would you establish if the claims are believable?
Promotional Techniques Promotional techniques are often used to attract customers to products and services.  Targeting specific groups and offering limited offers are some pro-motional techniques used. Don't be fooled by the slick advertising of products. Take the time to: • compare products • seek advice from people in the fitness industry • investigate the quality of the product or service advertised.
Accuracy of information One technique used in advertising is to promote products through glossy, attractive advertisements that appeal to the senses of the consumer, but really give little information about the product.  Compare advertisements of similar products or services to determine the amount of information given. It is wise to talk to the service providers and ask questions regarding their expertise and qualifications before using that service.
Ethics of Advertising As with any commercial industry, the fitness industry uses many advertising techniques to attract customers and make money.  There are many genuine fitness products and service providers available.  It is important that people understand that there is a range in the quality of service and product available. The claims made in advertising can be misleading and may even be false
Advertising and Promotion 1. What information is provided? 2. Who is the advertisement targeting? 3. What does the advertisement offer? 4. What promotional techniques are used? 5. What are the benefits of this fitness centre? 6. How can you determine if the information is believable? 7. From the information provided, do you think this gym would suit your fitness needs? Explain your answer. What other information would you require
