Marketing And Public Relations
Thursday, April 9, 2009 16:00
There are various terms used in publicity industry, and these cover a number of aspects that are essential to a successful business:
- Advertising – this is when a product or service is brought to the attention of new and existing customers through a number of methods including direct mailing, television, posters, website banners and email messages.
- Marketing – this focuses on a product or service (either new or existing) and creates a plan to ensure the customer’s needs are being met and the product/service is good value (the right price). It involves a wide range of methods such as research and focus group testing and analysis of competitors, and also includes ongoing advertising and promotional campaigns.
- Public Relations – this focuses on the company image as a whole (products, services, customer relations, company vision etc), to ensure that it has a strong, positive presence in the public arena. Public relations ensure that the company is visible and recognizable, and that people understand who they are and what they sell. This is usually carried out by maintaining a strong presence in the media (publicity) through newspapers, magazines, television and the Internet.
- Promotion – this is similar to all of the above, in that it is designed to attract consumer attention to a specific product or service, and is an ongoing campaign that involves combination of advertising, marketing and public relations.
Public relations, advertising, marketing and promotion are all essential to success for many companies, as there are very few trade ‘niches’ left in the current market and the majority of businesses face stiff opposition from competitors, and must also deal with any global market downturns. In order to sell your product or service to as many customers as possible, you have to reach out to as many people as possible, and persuade them through your strong, attractive company and brand image that they want to purchase from you, rather than from your competitors.
