...COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THREE COMMUNICATION FORMATS: ADVERTISING, INFOMERCIAL, AND DIRECT EXPERIENCE (2000). BY MANDEEP SINGH, SIVA K. BALASUBRAMANIAN & GOUTAM CHAKRABORTY Article review and analysis: 1 – Motivation, goals, contribution. 2- Context. 3 - Elaboration and illumination of theory and results. 4 - Critical review, limitations and further thought. Group: 3.08 Assignment Theoretical assignment Date: 5.11.2014 1 1. Motivation, goals, contribution The article aims at making a comparative analysis between three different communication formats used in advertising, and assess their relative effectiveness on a continuum. The three communication formats are direct experience (DE), television ads, and infomercials. The authors build on previous work to explain the similarities and differences of infomercials and ads / DE, and imply that it is interesting to examine the moderating / mediating effects each medium’s features has on consumer attitudes and intentions. (For example, length, persuasive intent, physical interaction, etc. – how does each effect consumer’s attitudes?). The reasoning behind the choice of these specific formats is that infomercials are a “natural” middle ground, as they combine both television advertisements and DE features (while, they assume beforehand, most likely closer to DE, which is also what they find in their experiments). The motivation for the study is twofold: novelty and useful practical implications. Novelty / research gap: Previous...

...Assignment One: Cereal Aisle Analysis I work Mondays through Fridays and I do my grocery shopping every Saturdays even though I know it’s might be extremely busy and crowed, but this time it worked to my advantage because I was able to conduct the observations required for this assignment. I went to my local giant store here in Horsham, PA around 10am and I went directly to the cereal aisle for 30mn to have enough information from various people groups. The first group was the families’ mom, dad with children: they were always pulled by the kids toward the cereals they could recognize and that was on the lower shelves. The second group was the single men: they were walking quickly though the aisle because they knew exactly what they want and it was usually the plain ones. The third group was the senior: they were cautious about their selection, they had a list handy but they will read labels and did not seem to care about designs. The fourth group was the single moms: they came prepare with a list handy, will pick more than one box and were knowledgeable of the brand they were looking for. The first group selection was based on the choice of the children because they are the first consumer of it the household. The parents tried to pick one or two boxes out of the selection the kids made and they made sure they didn’t spend a lot of time in the aisle to avoid having the kids second guessing their choice. The second group determined the value based on what they like in the...

...Assignment #1 Part A: 1. What are the major differences between pure play e-commerce and bricks-and-clicks operations? What are the benefits and limitations of each? A pure play operation is only online, and there is no physical interaction between the company and the customer. This could be considered a limitation as some consumers rely on physical interaction. A benefit for a pure play operation is that there is online deals, and a large market structure that could provide more consumers if advertised correctly. A bricks-and-clicks operation has both a physical store and sells products or services online. This is a benefit as those customers who buy in the physical store will already know the brand names. There is already an established distribution channel, as well as established customers. A limitation would be that some customers aren't used to buying online or the legacy systems. 2. One of the key motivations for developing an e-commerce site is immediate access to a much larger market. Explain why an increased market reach may have benefits, and describe its limitations. An online market would increase potential sales by advertising to more customers which they might not have reach possibly in a physical store. Limitations would consist of connection problems for customers and perhaps even to the provider's service. Also there could possibly be fraud issues with potential hackers. Another limitation co-insides to the benefit of reaching a new marketing geographic...

...ORGB 364 Assignment 1 Part A 1. Marketing specialists at Napanee Beer Co. developed a new advertising campaign for summer sales. The ads were particularly aimed at sports events where Napanee Beer sold kegs of beer on tap. The marketing group worked for months with a top advertising firm on the campaign. Their effort was successful in terms of significantly higher demand for Napanee Beer's keg beer at sports stadiums. However, the production department had not been notified of the marketing campaign and was not prepared for the increased demand. The company was forced to buy empty kegs at a premium price. It also had to brew some of the lower priced keg beer in vats that would have been used for higher priced specialty beer. The result was that Napanee Beer sold more of the lower priced keg beer and less of the higher priced products that summer. Moreover, the company could not initially fill consumer demand for the keg beer, resulting in customer dissatisfaction. Begin with a comprehensive description of open systems theory as it applies to both external and internal environments. Then apply the open systems theory to explain what occurred at Napanee Beer Co. Answer: (Definition and description of open systems theory)The open systems theory is a perspective which holds that organizations depend on the external environment for resources, affect that environment through their output, and consist of internal subsystems that transform inputs into outputs...
