SEM 3.03 & 3.04 COMPONENTS OF ADVERTISEMEN S ONLINE ADVERTISING DIRECT MAIL

PARTS OF AN AD • When the illustration (art-work) is eye-catching, it attracts the reader's attention to the headline and copy. • White space is the blank space between the elements of an ad. • Business identification is the part of an advertisement that identifies the advertiser and may include additional information about the business.

AD COPY • Copy (text) that tells readers different ways they can use the product is focusing on the product's uses. • If an advertiser gives factual information about the product, the copy is focusing on the product's features. • Advertisers use statements such as "Only 3 days left" in their copy to encourage readers to take action. Copy that makes a general or specific statement about the product is making a claim.

AD COPY • Copy is the text of an advertisement that delivers the sales message. Because the product is so complex, its features should be described in the advertisement's copy. • A slogan is a phrase that is easy to remember. An illustration is a photograph, drawing, painting, or graphic. The headline is the text set in large type and is usually positioned at the top of an ad. “You are in good hands with Allstate”

AD COPY

DIRECT-MAIL MARKETING • Effective direct-mail marketing campaigns typically include a call to action, which is essentially an incentive that encourages customers to respond and take some action. • Unless the direct-mail marketing campaign is extremely well planned and targeted at exactly the right customers, it is likely not to be highly cost-efficient.

DIRECT-MAIL MARKETING • Direct mail is difficult to track unless customers are required to bring the ad/coupon to the business to take advantage of a special offer/discount. Even then, it is often difficult to determine all pertinent demographics regarding the respondents.

DIRECT-MAIL MARKETING • To be successful, direct mail should be BRIEF, notdetailed. Customers should not have to spend a lot of time reading/studying the mail. Instead, the mailer should get its message across to customers as simply and quickly as possible.

DIRECT MARKETING • Direct marketing can be targeted to those customers who are most likely to buy. Examples of direct marketing include e-mail marketing, telemarketing, mailshots, SMS, and social media. • Advertising, publicity, and sales promotion CANNOT be targeted to the extent of direct marketing.

ONLINE ADVERTISING - BANNER ADS • Most banner ads are interactive, which means they involve two-way communication. Users are able to click on the ad and be linked to the advertiser's home page. • Users also may click on a portion of the ad to obtain additional info., download coupons or other specials, or link to related sites.

ONLINE ADVERTISING - BANNER ADS • Banner ads are NOT restrictive/selective because they are available to all users who access the site. The ads may, or may not, be productive depending on whether or not they appeal to consumers.

ONLINE ADVERTISING • Advertising online is very similar to traditional advertising and is intended to serve the same purpose. The most common forms of online advertising are banner ads, button, and pop-ups; however, sponsorships are gaining in popularity.

ONLINE ADVERTISING • When a business sponsors a web site, it pays for its name, and often a message, to appear on the site. Every time someone visits the site, they see the name and are reminded of the business. • Hosting chat rooms is NOT an example of online advertising.

ONLINE ADVERTISING • Many types of businesses in the sport/event industry, including retailers, use online advertisements to promote their products.

ONLINE ADVERTISING • For example, ski and snowboard enthusiasts are likely to spend their leisure or vacation time on the ski and snowboard slopes, which often have lodging facilities. • A snowboard retailer might place a banner ad on a nearby ski resort's web site to promote its snowboarding products with the goal of attracting the snowboard enthusiasts to the store.

COMMON INTERESTS • Businesses are most likely to advertise on web sites that have an interest in their products. A tire producer would likely advertise its products (tires) on auto-racing web sites such as NASCAR or the Sports Car Driving Association.

COMMON INTERESTS • Because of their common interest in cars, auto-racing enthusiasts are more likely to pay attention to automobile tire ads than are marathon runners, fitness trainers, and tennis fans.

MULTIMEDIA MESSAGING SERVICES • Multimedia messaging services (MMS) allow individuals and businesses to send rich-media messages to cell phones. These messages may contain text, graphics, sound, and video. • Short messaging services (SMS) also allow individuals and businesses to send messages via cell phones, but SMS messages only contain text—not images or graphics.

MULTIMEDIA MESSAGING SERVICES • Since Willmer's Hotel wants to send brief videos in these messages to customers' cell phones, it needs to use the more sophisticated of the two types of mobile messaging services—MMS.

TEXT MESSAGES WITH COUPONS • Currently, the mobile market is accustomed to receiving text messages on their phones. Attaching a coupon/discount to the text message has been shown to get greater response than messages without coupons. • Rich media may be the future for mobile advertising, but it's NOT there, yet. Cross-platform campaigns indicate the message/advertisement will be used in multiple media. Research indicates mobile ads are more effective when they are designed specifically for that medium, rather than for multiple media.

QUICK RESPONSE CODES • The evolution of the smartphone has provided businesses with another way to connect with their customers. Quick-response codes are similar to bar codes but look like a matrix of boxes or squares. • Businesses often place quick-response codes in newspaper/magazine ads and on signs or other printed materials. Individuals use applications on their smartphones to scan the code. The code might contain a URL to the business's web site or a coupon for discounted merchandise or services.

MOTIVATE CUSTOMERS TO BUY • The electronic media include TV, radio, and the Internet. Many sport/entertainment events appear on the electronic media and are viewed by consumers throughout the world. • This benefits the S/E industries because the coverage motivates consumers to buy tickets to events/merchandise. S/E industries often advertise on the electronic media. S/E industries DO NOT USE electronic media to encourage athletes to participate or to conduct worldwide research.

SELLING BROADCAST RIGHTS • One way that professional sport teams earn money for their organizations is by selling broadcasting rights to television networks, which air the games on television. • Sponsoring charitable events, participating in merchandising programs, and promoting the games on its web site are NOT revenue sources that involve broadcasting sport events on television.

FANTASY SPORTS • Many professional sport organizations (e.g., NASCAR) and media outlets (e.g., ESPN) are using fantasy sport games to attract fans to their web sites. Because fantasy sports are so popular, they have evolved into a growing industry. • Many entrepreneurs have started their own businesses by offering different versions of fantasy sport games and information sites that help the “owners” build their dream teams.

HTML TEXT • To be indexed and included in search-engine results, web sites must be search-friendly. They must be visible to search engine spiders that travel the Internet and store data about different web sites. • Search engine spiders are most likely to see and index web sites consisting of HTML text properly. HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), is the language generally used for encoding documents posted to the World Wide Web.

HTML TEXT • Although some spiders can see non-HTML content, most do not see Java applets, Flash files, or images accurately. • Web sites that consist mainly of non-HTML files are unlikely to be ranked highly in search-engine results—if they are included in the search-engine results at all.
