...Introduction Direct mail, telephone, magazines, newspapers, television, radio and online, these are the media that most advertisers use to promote their products or services. Each of these has its own advantage and disadvantages. Direct mail is the most suitable for testing and it can reach all households but it is the most expensive among all media. Telephone has a powerful one on one capability but it is dangerous with prospects. Magazines can reach mass or class but has less space to tell a story. Newspapers have a wide variety of format but sometimes advertisements can be affected by a local condition. Television has a powerful demonstration capability but has limited copy time. Radio has a high frequency but has no visual appeal. And online which is popular nowadays can have a fast retort from the consumers but it has no permanent response device. Today, we see facebook users use facebook as a mean of advertising their product. It may be make ups, garments, bags or even foods. It is much easier to advertise through this social networking site. This idea won’t cost you even a single centavo and lots of people can see it. You just need to upload the picture or video of your merchandise and then tag it or post it directly to the page of your friends. But is online advertising effective? Reports have shown the ads to be both an effective and ineffective means for businesses to target their advertising dollars (http://www.businessnewsdaily.com/2771-facebook-ads-effectiveness.html)...

...relationship, the publisher is primarily concerned with maintaining a high-quality audience that has well defined interests or characteristics. The advertiser is primarily concerned with creating a message that will be noticed by their target audience, because they pay for the impression whether or not the user actually sees the ad. In general, the more knowledge a publisher has about a particular audience, the higher the CPM that can be charged, because the advertiser is able to more clearly know who their message is being delivered to. One prominent weakness of CPM advertising lies in the fact that the advertiser is only getting value if the user actually sees the ad. If the user doesn’t notice the ad on the page, the money the advertiser paid is wasted. Another weakness is that it is difficult for an advertiser to prove that they are getting the desired value from the advertising. Since the goals of many CPM campaigns are not...

...interest in examining the mechanism and influence of online advertising. Along the line of research, an intensely debated topic has been consumers’ beliefs and attitudes toward online advertising. A host of studies (e.g. Ducoffe 1996; Russell, Staffaroni, and Fox 1994) have suggested that individuals’ attitudes toward online advertising (ATOA) are an important measure of advertising effectiveness. Past research of online advertising has provided insight into global marketing and commerce. However, the foci of most studies have been on the USA or other developed countries. Little is known about online advertising in developing countries such as China. Culture and advertising are intrinsically linked. Cultural influence on consumers’ beliefs and attitudes toward advertising has been well documented in the marketing literature (e.g. Durvasula and Lysonski 2001; La Ferle, Edwards, and Lee 2008). As Roberts and Ko (2001) stressed, cultural differences are as relevant to online advertising as to traditional advertising. The goal of the current study is to investigate online advertising across different cultures such as China and Romania, which extends the current research on ATOA to distinctly different cultural contexts and may provide useful implications for businesses and organizations to expand across cultures. Moreover, due to the short history of online advertising, consumers’ beliefs and attitudes toward online advertising are still evolving and changing (Karson, McCloy, and...

...Online Advertising Really Moves Offline Product Steve Warshaw, VP, Business Development, ACNielsen Phil Cara, Director, Yahoo! Inc. 6 Consumer Insight | Summer 2004| c o v e r s t o r y A woman goes online to research a question about her dog’s health. While surfing Yahoo!, she sees a dog food ad. Later that week, she goes to the store and encounters the same brand of dog food. She buys it. Breakthrough stuff? Absolutely. It may sound ordinary: Consumer sees ad; consumer responds. Yet in the world of e-commerce, manufacturers of consumer packaged goods have never been sure how often exposure to a product message online translates into a product purchase offline. Now they can be. Since 2002, ACNielsen and Yahoo! have been working together on a measurement tool to assess the correlation between a person’s surfing and shopping habits. This joint effort is called Yahoo! Consumer Direct— powered by ACNielsen, and for 18 months, Consumer Direct has combined the reach and technology of Yahoo! with the analytical tools of ACNielsen Homescan. The program evaluates the effectiveness of online advertising and promotions by consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies like PepsiCo, Kraft, Unilever and Nestlé. The study results are consistent—and satisfying. They indicate that online promotions can lift offline sales time after time, whether the item in question is a food, personal care or household product. Furthermore, each campaign has typically brought in more than twice the...

...DV Shirts Pay per Click Report DV Shirts are vendors of ‘high quality clothing for business people’. Although a credible reputation has been gained from the production of reliable clothing, David and Victoria aim to increase sales further through online advertising. This rise in sales will be engineered through ‘pay per click advertising’. What is ‘pay per click advertising’? Pay per click advertising is a system of internet marketing whereby advertisers, i.e. DV shirts, pay a fee every time their advert is clicked. Inevitably, visits to the website are bought instead of attempting to “earn” those visits organically. (Wordstream.com, 2013). This report aims to analyse the practicality of pay per click advertising for ‘DV Shirts’ by utilising the information collated by David and Victoria on the twenty day experiment with the model. How possible is the ‘perfect scenario’? (2) Figure 6 Histogram of cost per click Figure 6 Histogram of cost per click Information on the cost per click was then scrutinised. The main frequency to examine is the ‘over £2.25 to £2.50’ which has the same frequency value as other lower costs. This shows that 3 out of 20 of the days investigated lead to a cost of £2.25 to £2.50. As calculated earlier, this correlates directly with the amount of clicks, implying that the targets would only be achieved 15% of the time. This result will not be helpful in producing profits similar to the ‘perfect scenario’. Demographics Figure [ 7 ]: Ofcom...

The client called to place the order and declined the automatic refill option and expressed her concerns about the program. The company should reevaluate their decision to help resolve the issues this customer has had or risk losing her as a client.

...of Business in the online world Over the past decade the world has solely relied upon technology and its transformation throughout the years allowing for the revolution of social media to completely change how everyone communicates especially for businesses, allowing them to extend out and provide large opportunities for themselves. According to ISACA (2010), through the use of social media, it allows businesses to gain serious advantages through research and evaluation of their competition, their consumers, and the market. This enables them to not only help develop them to be on top of their issues, but using it as a tool for enhancing a better relational experience with employees and customers. For businesses to be successful with their organisations or products, social media is the key to their communication with their stakeholders through privacy and security, where it strongly impacts business to improve, but can be considered also to be a big risk where that barrier can be invaded, which can cause legal and ethical issues. Privacy and security are known to be the most important issues surrounding social media and the innovation of businesses today. Although it may be argued that users voluntarily sign away their privacy by using these social media when creating accounts and putting their personal data online, it is not clear how consent actually works in these situations (Custers et al. 2014). But overall privacy is a serious issue in the online world, businesses including...

...to their food preparation and helps to separate Coal Mine Dragon Chinese from the competitors in the area. They also try to use notably fresh and locally grown produce whenever possible. The company operates very basically, and has hardly any type of online presence other than a few customer reviews and a contact number for the facility. Currently the company’s customer base is very local. While the amount of revenue Coal Mine Dragon Chinese brings in currently is comfortable for such a small business, they hope to expand further into the surrounding cities, state wide and one day internationally. Sales have remained steady, but there is evidence that the company may be able to increase revenue by adding an online operation. This relatively inexpensive form of expansion will also serve as a form of advertisement to new potential customers (Belew & Elad, 2009). Currently the only advertisement used is word of mouth and positive customer reviews posted online. While this form of advertisement can create a positive image for the company, it can also be relatively limited in the area it reaches. It also doesn’t provide a way for Coal Mine Dragon Chinese to respond to customer input in a timely manner. Creating an online operation will allow many different people to learn about the company as well as give new and current customers the opportunity to view the menu ahead of time,...

...Running head: WHY GOOGLE WAS ABLE TO BEAT YAHOO 1 Why Google was able to beat Yahoo: External factors influencing the development and domination of the twenty-first century internet giants Gregory A Totty MGT510 Strategic Planning Dr. Walter McCollum Colorado State University WHY GOOGLE WAS ABLE TO BEAT YAHOO Abstract The purpose of the following research is to illustrate how external factors can influence the development of market share in a new industry. The primary example is a case study of the organization known as “Yahoo”; the first internet only large corporation, which failed to grow with its early domination of the new emerging market of the World Wide Web. The evolving industry originally was a creative person’s domain. It was viewed in its infancy more like a vast library, than the center of all knowledge transfer much as it has become. The mistakes made by Yahoo early in the century, soon became an uncontrollable nemesis; and would eventually force the organization to re-organize. This research attempts to provide evidence for Yahoo’s demise along with the primary external factors that were either overlooked or their magnitude of 2 influence was not properly considered. Based upon the evidence provided, an alternative strategy for a similar percentage of market share was implemented by Google who, partially by learning from the mistakes of Yahoo, was able to forecast more accurately; resulting in a dominance of the same market today. Conclusions can...

...DSMM Case: Air France Internet Marketing Name | Anushree Bishnoi | PG ID | 61410571 | 1. What are the metrics you would use to measure the success of each of the campaign that Air France has run? The key metrics that I would use for analyzing the success of each of the campaign that Air France has run are: 1. Return on Ad (ROA): ROA will hold as one the most important parameter in measuring the success of the campaign. In case the ROA is high, we will know how much would be the return on the investment (in the case it’s the charges paid for the click) of the advertisement. This will help us decide, whether we can invest in that publisher or not. 2. Rate of conversion: As can be seen from the doubleclick report, we can analyze the conversion rate to find the probability of bookings made through the volume of bookings columns. This is again a very important parameter in finding out which publisher will give you the highest rate of conversion. 3. Cost per click (CPC): The above two metrics is more to do with the result and the return on investment, but we should also keep track of the cost of our investment. I believe CPC will capture a lot of information related to it. For a publisher which gives high ROA, but also gives high CPC, we must look to bring down the cost associated with the click. 4. Click through Rate (CTR): CTR will give us the ratio of no. of clicks achieved through the number of impressions. In a case where CTR is very low, we will...
