3. TPM’s promotional campaign was launched in May 25, 2017, initiated by the Park Management & Service Division (PMSD) and led by
Project Lead Director, Encik Shahazman Abu Samah and Project Director, Puan Nik Hazma Nik Mustaffa with the objective of building TPM’s
affinity, creating awareness in the public mindset and enhancing TPM’s visibility and credibility.
A range of Public Relations (PR) activities were conceived strategically for PMSD after much brainstorming and deliberation by the team to
achieve it’s objective by adapting a holistic approach that involves a multiple-mix of strategic communication tools in reaching out to the
general public.
This campaign would be defined as the key relationship in forming a platform that will cultivate an effective strategy for PMSD to grow as
the premier business location for the business community and the plans involve a series of phases that will be essential in fulfilling the
goals and objectives of the project including the campaign messages, which were carefully crafted to enhance the organization’s image and
aimed to provide adequate but not overwhelming information to the selected target audience.
These messages are central to each tactic that was developed for the campaign and though there were significant changes in the
campaign’s delivery methods and approaches, we proposed to replace some of the PR activities, namely, two (2) of the published articles
for the magazine and four (4) articles in the Blogger’s pages, re-scoped into a combination of Social Media and Marketing activities.
These activities consists of creating PMSD FB, Instagram, Twitter, Google+, Google My Business, Search Engine Optimization (SEO), YouTube
Channel, listing in www.mudah.my, 13 testimonial and 2 videos on Buzz Feed News Episodes. These realigned strategic initiatives were
deemed as appropriate and crucial to suit the changes affected by the 4th
Revolution in Communications sector. Online dissemination of
information would be more effective and measurable via in-depth analysis provided by each online provider.
The plan for this project was initially set for 3 consecutive months, commencing in May, to August 2017.
Due to the many unforeseen issues cropping up, the project had to be re-scheduled progressively and the cumulative duration was
estimated to take 18 months to complete There were many factors which contributed to this delay such as, conducting reviews, evaluations
and confirmation of technical specifications.
In order to keep aligned to the Master Plan, the deliverables and project timeline were divided into 4 phases. The breakdown was to ensure
that the project milestones would be realistic and achievable, with each phase evaluated separately by the Project Team upon completion.

events and media opportunities in reaching out to the public.
• STRATEGY - The strategy is to set brand positioning and brand recognition in the minds of the target
audience which will translate to positive support for TPM.
• KEY MESSAGE – Use only one main key message in all written and verbal communications, the agency
will inculcate, emphasize and repeat the key message in media invitations, news releases, fact sheets
and verbal communications.
• PROMPT RESPONSE - Ensure prompt reply to any media enquiries and/or incidents.
• GETTING THE FACTS RIGHT – Leverage the relationship with the media by getting them to send us the
first cut of the write up, thus allowing us to control the flow of the article.
• KNOWING THE TREND - Be updated in the current news and hype to find opportunities in supporting
key moments. Appearing in most read topics to create brand visibility.
• TAILORED PRESS MATERIALS - Translate the press materials for the ease of all media and altering
angles to appear practical to selected desk. Eg: To prepare 2 press releases for each event, 1 with
business angle to suit the news and business desk and 1 with lifestyle angle. Each news release will
have an English and Bahasa Malaysia version.
• APPEAL TO SMES/STARTUPS- Frame the discussion to appear natural but subtly slot in the support for
this particular audience

14. RETURN OF
INVESTMENT
Visibility reflects market outreach: By combining total number of printed newspaper circulation, total number
of replica online newspaper(digital copy) and total number of viewership for TV appearance and the total
number of listenership for radio interview program, we concluded TPM’s objectives achieved with great
success.
Quality of management: This results also further explained the future market-share/profitability relationship is
the reflection of a common underlying factor: the quality of management. Good managers (including, perhaps,
lucky ones!) are successful in achieving high shares of their respective markets by diversifying their marketing
programs which are also indirectly gives a new experience and enhanced their skill in controlling costs, getting
maximum productivity from employees, and so on. Moreover, once a business achieves a leadership position in
the market — possibly by developing a new field — it is much easier for it to retain its lead than for others to
catch up.

MONEY
Technically, if we compare the budget allocated for this campaign (Rm90,000.00)
with the cost value for advertisement placement in newspapers, TV ads and
Radio ads (RM124, 736.00) , the overall total value spent is less than the actual
cost value payable for this campaign.
BALANCING COSTS AND BENEFITS
GREAT
EXPOSURE SETTING MARKET-SHARE GOALS
The return of expectation with total of 5,267,039 exposure in all media platforms
showed it is highly likely that the campaign had reached a tremendous share of
maximum exposure.
