18
Q

personal selling

A

Personal selling: frontline interaction between a company representative and a potential buyer designed to influence a purchase decision

benefits:
The upside for personal selling is the ability to completely customize it for each customer and each purchase situation. A salesperson can develop a customized sales presentation for each prospect. The salesperson is also able to address any objections directly and immediately. However, the downside of this is the potential expense. It doesn’t work well to promote a product to the masses as doing so would require a large sales force and huge budget.

Personal selling works best for products with a high enough selling price (and profit margin) to cover the cost of the sales employees.

19
Q

direct marketing

A

Direct marketing such as direct mail allows a marketer to reach and communicate directly with customers. There is also usually a way for the consumer to respond to the direct marketing, such as an opportunity to communicate back to the company and purchase.

advertising functions

A

INFORM
Advertising can let the customer know that the product exists, which is especially useful in the introduction stage of the product life cycle.

PERSUADE
Advertising can also have a persuasive element. This is especially helpful in the evaluation of alternatives stage of the buyer behavior process where customers are aware of the product but have not made a purchase decision.

REMIND AND REINFORCE
Advertising can serve to simply remind customers that the product exists. This works well when there is high brand awareness of the product among the target market.

Success model

A

SIMPLE
Keep the message simple. Choose one takeaway or one attribute to promote. That’s it. Don’t overload the consumer with a million reasons why they should purchase. Give them ONE message.

UNEXPECTED
The unexpected stands out. Create an element in the ad that is surprising or even catches people off guard.

CONCRETE
Put tangible to the intangible to make it concrete. Give examples to bring what you’re saying to life. Show things visibly.

CREDIBLE
Use claims that are credible. Instead of saying, “We do great work,” find a way to show people how you do great work. Who are your well-known clients? Whom did you help? What recognition or certifications have you received? What statistics can you use?

EMOTIONAL
Attach emotions to what you’re describing in the promotional message.

STORIES
People remember stories. There is a reason that parables and allegories are so effective: people connect with them. If you want people to remember a message, portray it with a story.
