PROMOTION PLANNING STEP OBJECTIVE SETTING

The objectives of promotion may be categorized as stimulating demand and enhancing company image.

The sequential short-term, intermediate, and long-term promotion goals for a firm to pursue.

Primary demand is an objective when seeking consumer interest for a product category.

Selective demand is a later objective that seeks consumer interest for a particular brand of a product.

PROMOTION PLANNING STEP BUDGETING

USE OBJECTIVE & TASK Under the objective-and-task method, a firm sets promotion goals,

determines the activities needed to satisfy them, and then establishes the proper budget. Most large companies use some form of objective-and-task technique.

During promotional budgeting, a firm should keep the concept of the marginal return in mind. This is the amount of sales each increment of promotion spending will generate. It is usually highest for

new products.

SELECTING MEDIA

Media are selected on the basis of these criteria: Advertising media costs. Reach Frequency. Gross Rating Points Waste Message permanence. Persuasive impact Clutter Lead time


COMMUNICATIONS

SELECTING MEDIA Advertising media costs

Outlays for media time and space. Total costs are computed

first. Per-reader or viewer costs are

computed second.


COMMUNICATIONS

SELECTING MEDIA Reach—the number of viewers,

readers, or listeners in an audience. . For TV and radio, reach is the total

number of people who are exposed to an ad. . For print media, reach has two

components: circulation (the number of copies sold or distributed) and passalong rate (the number of times each copy is read by another reader).


COMMUNICATIONS

SELECTING MEDIA Waste—the part of an

audience not in a firm’s target market.

Narrowcasting, which presents messages to limited and well-defined audiences, can reduce audience waste.


COMMUNICATIONS

SELECTING MEDIA Frequency—how often a medium can

be used.

program, issue, etc. of a medium. Lead time—the period required by a medium for

placing an ad.

PROMOTION PLANNING STEP THE PROMOTION MIX

CONSIDERING COOPERATIVE EFFORTS

With cooperative advertising, two or more firms share some advertising costs. 1. A vertical cooperative ad is

an advertising agreement between firms at different levels of the distribution channel.

2. A horizontal cooperative ad is an advertising agreement among independent firms at the same stage.

3. Good agreements clearly state each party’s costs, functions, and responsibilities; the ads covered; and the basis for termination.We will apply SCHNUCKS to both.

PROMOTION PLANNING STEP BUDGET

A budget delineates expenditures by explicit tool and medium

Considerations in budgeting may include alternative media costs, the number of placements needed, cost increases of media, the status of the economy, channel member tasks, production costs, and budget allocation for domestic versus international ads.
