  7. Taxonomy of Emotional Appeals Fear appeal • can be an effective motivator but has the danger of alienating consumers • Show the consumer how to avoid the problem. • Provide concrete supporting information

  8. Taxonomy of Emotional Appeals Humor • “Memorability” device. • Humor should not clutter the product benefits. • Execution detail: Show consumer how to avoid the problem. • Pre-test to check if consumer • i) recalls product benefit • Attitude_product versus Attitude_ad = will the message be persuasive and will the product be taken seriously. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVCGBohc20k&mode=related&search= • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3mXaATLeRM • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zV-yGp4l8B8 Fantasy • seen often in cosmetics advertising • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1g5qcKcVCM

Makes competition more salient. • Can use only if there is clear objective superiority for the advertised attribute.

  10. Media Decisions • Define the target market. Quantitative Measures • Reach: the percentage of people in the target market who are exposed to the ad campaign during the defined time duration • 70% of the target market during the first three months of the campaign • Frequency: A measure of how many times an average individual in the target market who have been reached .

  11. Media Decisions Advertising Exposure • Gross Rating Points = 70(Reach) 4(Frequency) = 280 GRP’s • 1GRP = 1 exposure to 1% of the audience. Qualitative Measures • Impact; is the qualitative aspect of the medium • Newsweek vs. The National Enquirer • Sports illustrated vs. Time for tennis racquets • Trade-off between reach and frequency • Pulsing vs. Continuity • Pulsing most critical for new products. Why? • Continuity needed when faced with intense competition

  12. Message Good advertising creative strategy translates the brand’s positioning statement into a persuasive and memorable message. A great creative will provide lasting impact even if advertising budgets are constrained. “ How you say it is as critical as what you say”
