Toyota Prius; Marketing Communications Plan
Executive Summary
Full service agency “Oakly & Oakley” has been asked to prepare a three-year communications plan for
the Toyota Prius, which is to be launched in the UK. Market analysis identified the target market, which
consists of two groups: private and corporate buyers. Next to the demographic profile, three different
psychographic profiles amongst the private buyer and their media usage have been identified.
Consequently a communications strategy that makes use of these media has been created. The
strategy will use PR, Advertising, direct mail and Personal Selling. TV, Print, Outdoor and the Internet
will be the main media. The Creative strategy is designed to emphasize the unique selling points of the
Prius and weaken the target markets objections. The budget has been allocated, however it is
suggested to change the allocation from £3m yearly to £4m, £3m, £2m in the course of the three
years. The majority of the budget will be spent on TV and print advertising.

Brand Analysis of Harley Davidson (from Indian perspective).Jay Shah
I have attempted a brand analysis of one of the giants in Automobile sector: Harley Davidson. This analysis is done keeping in mind the Indian market. The brand is doing great globally but to get dominance in the Indian market, it needs to understand India's consumer behavior because India is not like any other market. They need to be more flexible in their framing their strategic plans. The competition between HD and Royal Enfield is exciting for the consumers as well as marketers. Well, i wish that the best marketer may win!

US Automotive Revival Campaign Project by Loyola Graduate Marketing Students ...Sandra Kumorowski
Late in 2008, iMedia was approached by Sandra Kumorowski, a professor at Loyola University in Chicago, with an interesting opportunity. Sandra wanted to find a way to incorporate some of the resources on iMedia Connection into a graduate class she was teaching on integrated marketing communications.
We developed the cooperative project as a creative case study/competition, presenting the class with a fictional challenge that reflects a very relevant marketing concern: develop an integrated marketing campaign strategy that will serve to bolster the American automotive category, which has been challenged by international competition, economic, and environmental factors, as well as by ever-changing consumer behaviors.
The resulting campaigns were reviewed by a panel of interactive marketing experts, who judged the proposals based on key points in the digital campaign process: originality/creativity; effectiveness of media integration; appropriateness for the target audience; ability to be executed; and potential for a strong return on investment.
Though all the proposals showed the talent and skill of this group of future marketers, the panel ultimately found one that stood out from the crowd. The winning campaign, What's Fresh in the American Auto Industry, follows, along with some comments from the panel on what made this campaign worthy of sharing with the marketing community.
We hope that the project shines some light on the next wave of talent in interactive marketing: students, who will soon be offering up their skills to an industry that is always looking for the next big idea.

Running head: AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE TARGET MARKETS 1
AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE TARGET MARKETS 2
BMW
Introduction
As the BMW Group (n.d.) highlighted, the origin of BMW trickles back Karl Rapp and Gustav Otto. In the year 1916, there was the merging of Flugmaschinenfabrik Gustav Otto Company to Bayerische Flugzeug-Werke (BFW) at government behest. Relatively, in the year 1917, the Rapp Motorenwerke had evolved to Bayerische Motoren Werke (BMW) GmbH before becoming an AG; Public Limited Company in the year 1918 (BMW Group, n.d.).
The Product Life Cycle
The Living Media (2017) highlighted that this cycle has four stages.
The Introduction Stage
The source observed that this is the most expensive stage of a company that seeks to introduce a new product and BMW is no exception. Before starting off this stage, it is worth determining the needs of the consumers to come up with a product that satisfies such desires. The Automotive Intelligence (2007) notified that in the efforts to ensure that there are no mistakes made in the introduction stage, BMW had even set a location; Engineering Centre (FIZ) in Munich which serves as a location for all people brought together for the purpose of developing a product, suppliers included. It is a requirement to determine the characteristics of the target market.
Demographic characteristics
Abougomahh (2005) stated that the demographic characteristics are the reflection of the elements such as the size of the population as well as its features. These characteristics of the population may stand for the age, marital status and the education of the particular target market (Abougomahh 2005). In manufacturing a vehicle, BMW must take cognizance of these aspects concerning the market they target. Nica (2013) informed that the BMW's i8 targeted the consumers who were mostly men and of the age of 35 years old. On the other hand, if targeting families, there would be a replication of the same in the design of a vehicle.
Psychographic Segmentation
Lamb, Hair, ad McDaniel, (2009) opined that these characteristics stand for the aspects touching on the personalities, motives and even the lifestyles of the consumers. It is worth highlighting that when it comes to BMW, there is the reflection of the same with regards to the designs of their products. Getting back to the BMW's i8 the same vehicle targets the individuals who are tech-savvy; not only like to enjoy the experience of driving but also express caution concerning the responsible driving (Nica, 2013).
The analysis of the psychographic and the demographic aspects help in the better understanding of the consumer needs and the replication of the same in the modeled designs of vehicles.
The Growth Stage
In this stage, one thing that stands out is that there is the aspect of the growth in the sales and the same on profits. The Living Better Media (2017) highlighted that the ...

When most people in the industry talk about online or digital reputation management, what they're really saying is Google search and PPC.

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.

People search various questions, phrases or words. But some words and phrases are searched
more often than others.
For example, the words, ‘running shoes’ are searched more often than ‘best road running
shoes for men’
These words or phrases which people use to search on Google are called Keywords.
Some keywords are searched more often than others. Number of times a keyword is searched
for in a month is called keyword volume.
Some keywords have more relevant results than others. For the phrase “running shoes” we
get more than 80M relevant results, whereas for “best road running shoes for men” we get
only 8.
The former keyword ‘running shoes’ has way more competition from popular websites to
new and small blogs, whereas the latter keyword doesn’t have that much competition. This
search competition for a keyword is called search difficulty of a keyword or keyword
difficulty.
In other words, if the keyword difficulty is ‘low’ or ‘easy’, there won’t be any competition
and if you target such keywords on your site, you can easily rank on the front page of Google.
Some keywords are searched for, just to know or to learn some information about something,
that’s their search intention. For example, “What shoe size should I choose?” or “How to pick
the right shoe size?”
These keywords which are searched just to know about stuff are called informational

8. MEDIA OBJECTIVE AND STRATEGY
PUBLIC RELATIONS
Public relations, “the development and maintenance of good relationships with different
publics” (Smith, 1997), are essentially information within an independent medium (e.g.
magazine, newspaper) that occurred because a company provided them with those (e.g. press
release).
Public relations are useful because they enjoy a high credibility at a low cost, but the exact
message cannot be controlled.
This communication form will be of major importance for the Camaro campaign as many buyers
draw their information from the media. Being represented, talked about in those will be an
essential step in at least being considered as a choice.
