persuade”
(O’Guinn, Allen, and Semenik, 2007, pp. 8-9)

Advertising versus Publicity
Definitions:

Advertisement: “…a specific message that someone
or some organization has placed to persuade an
audience.”

Advertising Campaign: “…a series of coordinated
ads and other promos that communicate
reasonably cohesive and integrated theme.”

Integrated Brand Promotion (IBP): “…the use of
many promotional tools, including advertising, in a
coordinated manner to build and then maintain
brand awareness, identity, and preference.”

Advertising and Brand Promotion

“effective advertising as part of an overall
integrated brand promotion is a key factor
in the success of brands”
(O’Guinn, Allen, and Semenik, 2007, p. 20)

“advertising…plays a critical role in brand
development”
(O’Guinn, Allen, and Semenik, 2007, p. 21)

Brand:
“a name, term, sign symbol, or any other
feature that identifies one seller’s goods or
service as distinct from those of other
sellers”

(O’Guinn, Allen, and Semenik, 2007, p. 21)
Building Brand Loyalty

…occurs when a consumer repeatedly
purchases the same brand to the
exclusion of the competitors’ brands.
Brand Equity

…is built when a company builds and
maintains positive associations with
the brand in the mind of the
consumer.
Inelasticity of Demand

Brand loyal consumers tend to be less
sensitive to price increases. Economics
calls this inelasticity of demand.
Types of Advertising

and values of a particular brand (stimulates brand recognition)

Advertising to IMC to IBP
Advertising is only one component of
the promotional tools available in
Integrated Marketing Communications
(IMC)
 IMC = process of using promotional
tools so that a unified synergistic
communication effect is created (an

emphasis on communication).

IBP has become the emphasis more
recently (with a focus on brand over communication).
