Study Notes

Shannon-Weaver Model of Communication

The model illustrates communication as a process involving a sender (encoder), a message (signals), a channel, a receiver (decoder), and noise.
Noise can be anything that interferes with the message, like physical noise, language barriers, or lack of clarity.
The model highlights the importance of clear communication and how noise impacts the message's effectiveness.

AIDA Model

This model focuses on four stages: awareness, interest, desire, and action.
The model suggests that advertising should aim to bring customers through these stages to a purchase, with all stages being crucial.
It effectively guides advertising campaigns in creating messages that resonate with the target audience, leading them to take action.

DAGMAR Model

DAGMAR stands for Define Advertising Goals for Measured Advertising Results.
It focuses on setting clear achievable advertising goals and then measuring the effectiveness of the campaign.
The model emphasizes building customer relationships through effective advertising by addressing awareness, comprehension, conviction, and action phases.

Lavidge & Steiners Hierarchy-of-Effects Model

This model explains how advertising affects customer behavior, transitioning them from simply being aware of a brand to liking it and finally making a purchase.
The model divides the process into three stages: cognitive (awareness, knowledge), affective (liking, preference, conviction), and behavioral (purchase).
It emphasizes the importance of progressing through all stages for effective advertising.

Hierarchy-of-Effects in Apple

Apple Inc. uses this model effectively through product launches by generating awareness, creating interest and desire, and ultimately leading to purchase.
Apple's approach incorporates buzz creation leading up to launch, highlighting innovative features and designs, and delivering strong brand experiences to drive customer loyalty.
