Study Notes

Introduction to the Changing Nature of Advertising

Advertising has evolved from traditional formats (TV, print) to a mix of traditional and digital platforms.
The digital era has made advertising more data-driven, incorporating personalization, targeting, and analytics.

Key Trends in Modern Advertising

Post-Cookie Advertising: Advertisers are shifting from third-party cookies to first-party data collection due to privacy concerns.
AI and Automation: Artificial intelligence enables dynamic ad creation, real-time bidding, and predictive analytics for enhanced targeting.
Interactive Formats: Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) provide immersive ad experiences.

Advertising Formats and Packages

Traditional Formats

Print Media: Magazines, newspapers, and brochures remain relevant for specific demographics.
Broadcast Media: Television and radio remain effective for mass reach, though digital platforms are gaining traction with younger audiences.

Digital Formats

Search Advertising: Pay-per-click (PPC) and search engine optimization (SEO) focused ads are used to increase visibility on search engines.
Display Advertising: Banner ads, video ads, and interactive formats are featured on websites. These ads can be tailored to specific users or demographics.
Social Media Ads: Tailored ads are designed for specific demographics on social media platforms. These can include sponsored posts, stories, and carousel ads.

Creativity in Advertising

Role of Creativity: Creativity plays a crucial role in breaking through advertising clutter and engaging audiences.
Techniques for Creativity:
- Storytelling: Uses narratives to evoke emotions and build brand affinity.
- Humor: Captures attention with lighthearted content.
- Visual Innovation: Innovative formats like Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are used.
- Personalization: Tailoring messages to individual preferences.
Examples: Guinness Coronation Ad and KFC's "Fck" Apology Campaign showcase successful creative approaches. Sponsored posts, stories, and carousels are also tailored for specific audiences. Programmatic advertising uses AI for real-time bidding.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Advertising

Advantages

Wide Reach: Advertising can target a broad audience across diverse platforms.
Brand Awareness: Advertising establishes and reinforces brand identity.

Ad Fatigue: Excessive exposure to advertising can lead to decreased engagement.
Privacy Concerns: Growing awareness of data usage presents challenges to targeted ads. This includes the rising awareness of users of their data being used for targeted ads.
