10. The Elements of the Marketing Mix
Advertising: the first of these elements is described as being any paid form of
non-personal presentation and promotion of ideas, goods, and services by an
identified sponsor.
Sales Promotion: the second element of communication tools, is a process of
providing short-term incentives to encourage purchase or sales of a product or
service. While advertising gives the buyer reasons to buy, sales promotion gives
the buyer the incentive to buy now.
Public Relations: the third communication tool, is an attempt to build good
relations with the company's various publics by obtaining favorable publicity, building
up a good "corporate image," and handling or heading off unfavorable rumors,
stories, or events.
Personal Selling: the fourth communication tool is face-to-face interaction with one
or more prospective purchasers for the purpose of making presentations, handling
objections and securing orders.
 Direct Marketing: the fifth communication tool is the process of using mail,
telephone, fax, e-mail or internet to communicate directly with the customers and
prospects.

11. Integrated Marketing Communications
 Integrated marketing communications is a way of looking at the
whole marketing process from the viewpoint of the customer.
 Not all product concepts are right for all individuals, which
observation introduces the notion of market segmentation and
targeting. One message does not fit all. Integrated marketing
communications (IMC) focus on discrete customer segments.
 Through integrated marketing communications, the company
carefully integrates and coordinates its many communication channels
to deliver a clear, consistent, and compelling message about the
organization and its products or services.

Reach is the percentage of people in the target market.
Frequency is the number of times the average person in the target market is exposed
to an advertising message during a given period.
 Media impact is the qualitative value of an exposure through a given medium.
Media planners consider the following factors when making their
choice:
The media habits of consumers.
The nature of the product.
The types of messages.
Cost.
 The media planner must now choose the best media vehicles (specific media within
a given type-magazines, radio, television, etc.). This choice is based on which vehicles
give the best reach, frequency, and impact for the money.
Deciding on the media timing is also an important decision. The advertiser must
decide how to schedule the advertising over the course of a year. They also have
to examine the pattern of the ads (some advertisers only do seasonal advertising).
Forms to be considered are:
 Continuity: scheduling ads evenly within a year period.
 Pulsing: scheduling ads unevenly or in sporadic bursts over a certain time
Period.
