25. 5. Promoting Programs An effective promotional campaign helps to create or reinforce the image you want for your heritage centre and conveys a specific message that tells people what you what them to do. You are, essentially, developing a communications campaign. Promotion includes anything and everything the museum does to let people know that it exists, why they should come, why they should support it, and why they should take pride in its role in their community. In business, promotion traditionally includes public relations and paid advertising.

26. Advertising is something you pay for. To be effective, advertising must be in appropriate mediums, contain a message targeted to your public, and must offer them something. Ads don’t give out all the information about your museum. Narrow your focus to name what the visitor receives and what the advantage is to the client. Promotion and publicity are ways of communicating with little or no cost. Its purpose is the same as advertising - to move the members of the public to action.
