Study Notes

Brand Communication Overview

  • Communication theory and brand communication were discussed in a presentation.
  • The presentation covered various types of marketing communications.
  • Promotion or marketing communications include advertising, brand activation, point-of-purchase communications, online communications, direct-marketing communications, sponsorship, exhibitions & trade fairs, and public relations.
  • The marketing mix is made up of product (customer need), price (cost to the customer), place (convenience), and promotion (communication).
  • Promotion is equal to marketing communications.
  • A brand is a name, term, sign, symbol, design, or a combination of these, intended to identify goods or services of one seller or group and to differentiate them from competitors.

Brand Names

  • Brand names should be memorable, meaningful, likeable, transferable, and protectable.
  • There are three categories of brands: manufacturer brands (A-label brands), own-label brands (or private label brands), and generic brands (or white labels).

Brand Strategies

  • Line extensions
  • Brand extensions or brand stretching
  • Corporate branding
  • Multi-branding

Integrated Communications (Lesson 1)

  • The presentation covered integrated communications (book pages 1-41).

Marketing Communications Theories

  • Hierarchy-of-effects model
    • Oldest model in marketing communications (1898)
    • Involves cognitive, affective, and conative stages (Think, Feel, Do)
    • Disagreements exist regarding the sequence of these stages, such as impulse buying
    • Alternatives include low-involvement and experiential hierarchy-of-effects models.
  • Foote-Cone-Bedding (FCB) grid model (1980)
    • A model that classifies consumer situations based on high/low involvement and think/feel dimensions.
  • Rossiter-Percy Grid Model (Alternative to FCB)
    • Classifies consumers based on high/low involvement and informational/transformational motivation.
  • Advantages to these frameworks:
  • Providing a framework for communication objectives and campaign effectiveness measurement.
  • Recognition of the importance of brand awareness leading to top-of-mind awareness (TOMA).
  • Grids function as positioning tools not product categories, based on characteristics of consumers in buying decisions, and part of advertising strategies.

Brand Attitude Formation and Change

  • Brand attitude is a person's overall evaluation of an object, product, person, or organization.
  • Marketing communications aim to change attitudes toward their company's brand.
  • Brand attitude formation involves stages from awareness of the brand and its benefits, to liking, preference, conviction, and finally purchase.
  • Attitude components include: cognitive (knowledge, beliefs and evaluations of the product), affective (feelings associated with the product), and behavioral (action readiness).
  • These components can be targeted by marketers to change attitudes toward brands.

Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM)

  • A dual process theory explaining attitude change.
  • Two routes of message processing:
    • Central route: consumer finds the message important and focuses on the information.
    • Peripheral route: consumer is less involved and focuses on less significant aspects, such as humor, music or the image of the product.
  • ELM distinguishes different aspects in customer processing, such as low degree and high degree of elaboration.

How Communications Work in the Digital Age

  • Purposes of marketing communication include carrying information about the brand, brand valuation and positive brand evaluation, and activating consumers.
  • The involvement framework facilitates consumers' brand content creation and partly takes control of brand-building and communication.
  • Models of communication incorporate persuasion, involvement, salience, and sales promotion frameworks, aiming to gradually lead consumers through stages to persuade purchase behaviors.
  • Digital age consumer journeys and marketing communications include channels such as websites, social media (Facebook), blogs, direct mail, media, and newsletters.
  • Tools like Google Analytics provide measurable data in the digital age, allowing for a better understanding of consumer interactions and the exponentially bigger audience in online communications.

Other insights

  • Communications differ greatly in the online environment compared to traditional channels.
  • Marketers need to activate the internet community to communicate with the brand and with other consumers.
