  • Pay-Per-Click Advertising Skyrockets Profits for an Ecommerce Store
    Pay-Per-Click Advertising Skyrockets Profits for an eCommerce Store A PPC Case Study BuildASoil (BAS) is an online retail supplier for organic soil bases, amendments, composts, fertilizers, and growing systems. Gardeners design their own custom soil and nutrient mixes on their website, which are then bagged and delivered to their doorstep. While the BAS products can be used for any home gardener, their brand attracts the exploding cannabis market in Colorado and other legal states. They have also grown a lifestyle brand around their product through Instagram, YouTube, and their blog where they offer how-to articles, videos, and behind the scenes information to their fans. Their mission is to assist home gardeners to be successful with organic gardening through their tested natural systems. They have a vision for a garden in every patio in every home. PPC Agency Management BuildaSoil connected with InSync Media in October 2018. While they had grown a successful company through organic online marketing, paid and organic social media, and a loyal fan base, they knew they were missing an opportunity to grow through pay-per-click advertising on the popular Google Shopping Network (GSN). The GSN is a technical setup, and the staff at BAS did not have the internal resources to get this PPC advertising channel set up and working correctly. It made sense for them to hire an agency to manage this aspect of their PPC marketing. After the initial setup costs, InSync Media offered them affordable monthly management fees available to local small businesses.

  • A Comparative Analysis of Mobile and Email Marketing Using AIDA Model
    J. Basic. Appl. Sci. Res., 4(6)38-49, 2014 ISSN 2090-4304 Journal of Basic and Applied © 2014, TextRoad Publication Scientific Research www.textroad.com A Comparative Analysis of Mobile and Email Marketing Using AIDA Model Fazal Ur Rehman1; Tariq Nawaz; Muhammad Ilyas and Shabir Hyder Department of Management Sciences, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Pakistan Received: February 22, 2014 Accepted: May 4, 2014 ABSTRACT This study assessed the effectiveness of mobile and email marketing channels using AIDA model. The study used questionnaires based survey to collect data. The collected data were analyzed through logistic regression. The study is based on the marketing channels adopted by a mega store. Results indicated that mobile marketing was more effective as compared to email marketing. This study was unique in the sense that comparison between both channels based on AIDA model was analyzed for the first time. It is suggested that marketing professionals can increase their sales using mobile marketing; however, this effort should be supplemented by using e-mail marketing. KEY WORDS: Mobile Marketing, Email Marketing, AIDA Model INTRODUCTION Advanced technology has altered the way of doing business and minimized distances among businesses and its customers. Nowadays, it is easy for businesses to intermingle with customers efficiently and quickly at lower cost and shorter period of time around the world. In the contemporary business environment, mobile phone and electronic mail play important role in communication. Mobile marketing is the use of cell phones as a source of marketing communication. Shankar and Balasubramanian's (2009) defined it as “the two way communication and promotion of an offer between a business and its customers via cell phones”.

  • Sexual and Violent Media's Inhibition of Advertisement Memory: Effect Or
    Sexual and Violent Media’s Inhibition of Advertisement Memory: Effect or Artifact?1 Carrie B. Fried2 and John C. Johanson Winona State University Research (Bushman, 2005; Bushman & Bonacci, 2002) has claimed to demonstrate that sexual and violent content in television programs inhibits viewers’ memory for advertisements. However, that research failed to adequately control other aspects of the programs’ content, making interpretation problematic. The present paper attempts to correct these flaws. Studies 1 and 2 demonstrate that if other aspects of show content are held constant, sex and violence alone do not affect memory for advertisements. Study 3 provides evidence that while sex or violence does not affect memory, other aspects of program content (e.g., plot, humor) do have a significant influence on advertisement memory. Implications of this research on the interpreta- tion of previous research are discussed. Social scientists have spent decades examining the effects of television on viewers. The research has been diverse, spanning such topics as the portrayal of gender stereotypes, the value of television as an educational venue, and the influence of televised debates on presidential elections (for an overview, see Oskamp, 1988). Much of the research has focused on the potentially negative effects of violent or sexual content, and there have frequently been social, political, and policy implications drawn from such research (e.g., Federal Trade Commission, 2000; “Joint Statement,” 2000; National Television Vio- lence Study, 1996, 1997, 1998). Although some researchers have painted the negative effects of sex or violence as powerful and clear-cut (e.g., Anderson & Bushman, 2002; Court, 1984; Donnerstein, Linz, & Penrod, 1987), others have suggested that the evidence is neither strong nor straightforward (Freed- man, 1988, 2002; Milavsky, 1988; Ward, 2003).

  • Brand and Advertising Awareness: a Replication and Extension of a Known Empirical Generalisation
    Brand and Advertising Awareness Brand and Advertising Awareness: A Replication and Extension of a Known Empirical Generalisation Jenni Romaniuk, Byron Sharp, Samantha Paech & Carl Driesener Abstract From analysis of over 39 categories Laurent, Kapferer and Roussel (1995) found that top of mind, spontaneous and aided brand awareness measures have the same underlying structure. The difference in scores appears due to the difficulty of the measure. We have successfully replicated this work and extended it to similarly structured advertising awareness measures. However, additional analyses then revealed that while there is a good category level fit, modelling a single brand over time is less successful. Indeed, Laurent et al.’s excellent cross-sectional fit appears due to substantially different levels of salience between larger and smaller brands. This suggests that while the different types of awareness tend to vary with a brand’s overall level of salience, this does not mean that the different measures simply reflect a single underlying construct. Further, our finding challenges the previous authors’ claim that knowing the score for one measure allows the estimation of the score for another measure. Instead, the model provides useful norms against which to compare actual scores. Keywords: Brand awareness, Advertising awareness, Empirical generalisation 1. Introduction product category cue, was one of the first brand Awareness measures are used extensively in research as awareness measures to receive attention, emerging as a gauge of brand performance and marketing one of the best ‘predictors’ of choice in Axelrod’s (1968) effectiveness.

Until that is achieved, cross-media research will continue to have a silo orientation and operate on the periphery of marketing planning. • Cross-media exposure is not a zero-sum game. Exposure to one medium does not mean less exposure to another. • Maximizing cross-media synergy requires allocating proportionately more money to the less effective medium to equalize the impact of both. Rather than reallocate the budget to the less effective medium, under conditions of synergy, advertisers should increase the total media budget. • Greater cross-media synergies appear to be achieved through the visual/verbal connection provided by TV and the Web than the verbal only connection provided by print and the Web.
