- 3. 1.Public’s view of advertising 1.1 advert is everything that has a name on it The obvious media emerge as part of advertising such as, television , billboards , magazines and newspapers. Further , the public included the other ‘below the line’ media in their concept of advertising, for example , direct mail , door drops , sponsorship , the internet , commercial text messages and advertising in supermarkets . Moreover , advert also includes telephone sales , brand names on fashion items , brand mentions in distribution outlets and branded carrier bags. In other words advert is ‘ anything that has a name on it ’.
- 4. 1.2 advertising is everyday culture Advertising is recognised as being a source of entertainment as well as giving information . It is a media in its own right as it provides people with another subject to talk or gossip about .Besides that it can create the language of the street and bring new phrases or colloquialisms into use . 1.3 life without advertising would be dull Some respondents were asked to imagine what life without advertising would be like . Although , there were criticisms of advertising for being too invasive , giving too much pressure and just simply for being bad advertising , it was apparent that respondents felt life without advertising would be very dull . It might be simpler and slower and would be less pressure to buy things but it would be very much less interesting and exciting . “ life would be simpler but it would be boring…everybody would have what they’ve got and then that’s it. You’d end up buying the same thing week in week out” ---male parent
- 5. 1.4 advertising is information Advertising is a key form of communication . Companies would not be able to communicate about products or services , particularly new ideas . Respondents hungry for any new information felt they would miss out and have to troop around shops looking for items . ----“ We all need products and it (advert) is a way of researching them I suppose– I think advertising is good because you find out about new things coming out ..like the George Foreman cooker……I agree it’s only because I saw it that I want one ” ---- “ I love watching adverts if there is a new product on the market….I like trying new products.” ---- “ If there were no ads around you would just go round picking things up”
- 6. 2.The public’s use of advertising 2.1 everyday culture A topic of conversation --- “ we do talk about certain adverts like Monkey on ITV digital it’s very funny ”—female 20-25 North Urban Advertising phrases ---“ I know the young like it but that Bud thing it was on that many times that my blooby parrot’s doing it…I hate it , drove me mad..but my grandson loved it , he used to switch it up .” Advertising content --- “when you are watching you would try to guess what the advert was about , pair of jeans advert , makeup and then you would all be wrong”
- 7. 2.2 Information The information that most interested consumers was either new products or services or price and promotions . There was a concern that without advertising it would be impossible to know about new products or services . There was no doubt that all wanted this information . The fear of missing out is a real one . The information contained in advertising can be simply ‘ food for thought. It can provide inspiration from the ‘what shall I cook for dinner ?’ dilemma to ’ what is the latest fashion?’ or it make you think more deeply about a topic.
- 8. 3. Aspects that increase the effectiveness of advertising 3.1 size matters It became apparent that the perceived scale and quality of any advertising is very important to the way it is received .So, large space sizes , mainstream media , the use of colour ,high production values or even a clever or big creative idea all add weight to the advertising . --- “ if it’s big and glossy and in colour you think well they’ve spent some money on that they must be trustworthy , why I don’t know” --- “ I think if you see a lot of adverts and it’s in your face on tv or on Billboards , it must be good because they’ve got all this money to do advertising”
- 9. 3.2 Quality matters The affect of the campaign can be enhanced by the quality of the idea , the quality of the production , the quality of the media placement and the quality of the mood and the tone or style of the ad. All these reflect on the quality and credibility of the brand . 3.3 The brand matters The advertising of a known and trusted brand is readily trusted unless something happens to suggest that trust is misplaced . --- “ I trust bigger companies more because they are more likely to be there if something goes wrong..you have a point to go back to” --- “You trust a well known name rather than one you never heard before..you know Tescos”
- 10. 3.4 There is power in staying power A brand that has been around for a long time must be good otherwise it would not have survived ,hence its advertising is more readily accepted . In this sense the brand idea living in the adveritsing strengthens the power of the advertising as it is building on what has gone before and what lies in the memories of consumers . --- “ they are still there so they must be good –Weetabix , Heinz and Tango”
