Generic – 1) Promotes the category, not the brand.
2) Eat meat, Feel good
Pre emptive – 1) Makes a claim that no other competitors have and therefore appears unique.
2) Radio station Nova promotes “no more than two ads in a row”.
USP – 1) Makes a unique proposition based on functional attribute of product.

Positioning – 1) Position product in consumer mind.
2) Virgin blue is fun, no frills airline
Brand image – 1) builds an image or attitude or personality about the product or service.
2) Coke has always been about image rather than quenching your thirst.
Inherent drama – 1) uses the drama within the product to portray its benefits.
2) The reporters without borders ad speaks of the drama of media censorship
Resonance – 1) The ad strikes a chord or resonates with the viewer
2) The milk ads which show over choice – “Low fat, no fat, reduced fat, high calcium” is something milk buyers can relate to.
Affective – 1) Appeals to the viewers on a purely emotional level.
2) “I still call Australia home” for Quanta’s.
Given bellow is the feedback given by the lecturer.
Just an overall thing to take note of:
Some initiatives do not make sense (like you are using National TV for a small cafe) Think about this - in real life, you will not have the money to do so and it is not needed nor relevant. The initiatives that you select need to be relevant to the consumer. So if it is a Gen Y, then traditional channels like TV are not applicable. The tools need to reflect the objectives too.
Set a scene at the introduction. You need to establish what is happening (opening a new restaurant / gym / shop; generating more business for sluggish sales, repositioning to gain a new segment) Tell me what is happening so that I know why there is a need for the campaign.
Using Canva to create sample designs would be a great way to communicate your ideas,
