ESSAY

 

1. Consumer media use practices have changed significantly in recent years, driven by but not limited to video use. Identify two or three specific changes and discuss them.

 

ANS:

Changes highlighted in this chapter (in the introductory section and in the video section) include:

• Increasing use of cell phones
• Increasing use of smart devices like smartphones and tablets
• Apps/mobile apps for accessing content
• Timeshifting (on demand content)
• Decline of traditional print media
• Video contributing to continued strong TV viewing
• Heavy use of social media platforms by young consumers
• Use of social media platforms by older and more affluent consumers
• Videos viewed by majority of Internet users
• Adults 25 to 34 are heavy viewers of video
• Demonstrable impact of videos on purchasing behavior
• Increased viewing of professionally produced video (primarily TV shows) on the Internet
• Apparent willingness of young consumers to pay for content if necessary

and they may think of more.

 

Students should make clear the marketing relevance of the changes they have chosen. Many of them reflect the ability to access content at any time on any device—the mobile revolution. Others suggest the blurring of lines between traditional and new media; the decline of newspapers and the importance of newspaper websites, for example. Social media has impact, not only for consumer communications, but for communications with brand marketers and the sharing of marketer-initiated content.

 

2. There are several stages that are part of the brand development process. Identify the stages and describe the nature and importance of each. [Illustrate each stage with an example of the behavior a consumer might exhibit when going through that stage.]

 

ANS:

The stages of banding are shown in Figure 5.5.

 

• Brand Awareness is essentially the ability to recognize (unaided) or to recall (aided) the brand. [The consumer recognizes a known brand, say a new video game) when it is seen on the store shelf.]
• Brand Familiarity is the possession of some, perhaps limited, knowledge about the brand. The knowledge might include knowing something about its features, or better, its benefits when used by the target customer. [The consumer remembers hearing that there is a new game from one of his favorite developers that has been reviewed favorably on several gaming sites from which he receives newsletters.]
• Positive (or it could be negative) Brand Imagery is the perceptions and attitudes target customers hold about the brand. [The consumer remember both the positive reviews and having heard on a discussion forum that the game is fun and challenging. He has also noticed that a lot of people are playing it online, which is something he likes to do.]
• Completed transaction is the final activity of purchasing the product. Students should recognize that a purchase is also a stage in a process; consumer use, experience and evaluation will follow. The post purchase steps are likely to have a large impact on future purchases, or lack thereof. [The consumer purchases the game and downloads it to his mobile phone using the store’s WiFi. He tries it out on the bus on the way home and finds it as good as he hoped it would be.]

 

3. Making a marketing video is more than just shooting some cool footage. The text discusses some of the best practices for making use of the power of marketing videos. Discuss three things that should be done in order to have the best chance of making a video that will have marketing impact.

 

ANS:

The text lists the following as best practices:

 

• Set social goals, not financial ones. Videos are one part of a content marketing strategy and, as such, are impossible to link to specific financial goals like sales.
• Have a marketing plan.
• Have a social media presence, which gives you channels to distribute your video content.
• Include sharing options in your video posts and marketing campaign activities like emails.
• Encourage commentary and respond as needed.
• Measure results.
• Look at video as a relationship building tool more than as a direct sales generation tool.
• Monitor what people say about the campaign in other channels (Facebook, Twitter, trade industry publications, for example).
• Have a formal debriefing at the end of the formal campaign to assess effectiveness and pinpoint things learned that will make future campaigns better.

 

These best practices add up to having a strategy and a specific plan for each video or each video campaign. It’s not just fun and games, it’s a marketing message that contributes to the overall brand theme or marketing campaign objective, better to both.

 

Students may also discuss one or more of the four elements of video strategy—publish, optimize, promote and analyze—in this context. That conveys the same message; marketing videos are part of broader marketing activities and must be planned and managed in a goal-oriented manner.
