communications approach to solving business
problems.

campaigns.

that stimulates a positive response from a target
market.”

benefits and builds brand image.

specific offers to encourage immediate
response.

distribution; they make the product available to final
users.

“Communications that are designed to gain public
understanding and acceptance.”
1. Messages are placed at no cost.
2. Messages can promote a brand or company.
3. Messages often deal with crisis situations.

Attitudes
Attitude
One’s feelings about an
idea or object.
1. Attitudes are influenced by friends, family,
trendsetters, opinion leaders, and advertising.
2. Gaining acceptance is easier if the product fits the
attitudes held by the target.

We notice things of interest.
Selective Perception
Tuning out information that
conflicts with attitudes.
Selective Retention
We remember what we want
to.
37
Reference Group Influence
Reference
Group
A group of people with
a common interest.
The desire to “fit in”
affects behaviour and
buying decisions.

Family Influences
Each family member has some influence on the
behaviour of other family members.
Changing roles and responsibilities of family
members has necessitated “double targeting”
by marketing organizations.
