Advertising Strategy
Every new product would require promotion so that it reaches to customers. One of the ways of achieving this is through advertising. Therefore an advertising strategy needs to be developed to promote the product. Various things need to be considered when developing an advertising strategy.
The first thing to consider is the definition f the product, which involves identifying the revenueof the product in the market in terms of its primary objective (Ansari & Riasi, 2016). The target audience is essential in developing an advertising strategy. The factors that are mostly considered include behavior patterns and psychological factors (De Mooji, 2019). Once the target audience is established, marketing research needs to be done. This will inform the products already available in the market and the desire of consumers from the product.
Another factor that is considered is a marketing plan which would establish the niche o the product to stand out in the competition. One the marketing plan has been stipulated, communication should be considered. It involves the channel of communication, including the right media and an advertising media mix (De Mooji, 2018). For example, it means a psychological product; media such as brochures and fliers may be used.
The other factors to be considered would include budget, marketing decisions, and modification of the advertising strategy. The budget is determined by the resources the company has. For example, if the budget is expensive, the company may use a high impact advertising. The company can then decide on the marketing advertising strategy, which consists of pull and push strategies ( McAlister et al., 2016). Push methods aim at retailers and salespersons to buy the product while the pull method directly aims at customers. The final thing to be considered is the trends in the market to ensure that the advertising strategy is still active. This is through including a plan for modification into the advertising strategy.
