Integrated Brand Advertising

Effective ads are those that get attention and lead to new customers. You can write effective ads if you follow a few simple steps.

Steps

1. Grab your reader’s attention. Choose a good headline to get your reader’s attention. Study adverts that industry experts deem highly successful, making note of similar industries to your own. You can look towards magazines, websites, and even newspapers for headline ideas. Write down 10 or 15 headlines for the advert you will be placing. Let them “rest” overnight, come back the next day and pick the one that pulls most at your attention.
2. Create Interest. - After you’ve created a headline that will capture attention, you will have to get your prospects interested in what you are offering. One rule of thumb often used is “what’s in it for me?” If your reader cannot easily tell how they tie into the advert, they will pass it by. There are many ways to do this–state a fact, a quote, a solution to a problem.
3. Create Desire. Once you have obtained and retained the attention of your prospect, you have created a relationship between your reader and the ad that will cause them to desire more information. By creating an emotional attachment in this scenario, you not only create desire for more information, your reader may desire your product and/or services. The desire you have created could be to save money, have better relationships, move ahead in a job — any tangible feeling or emotion that your readers would have a connection to.
4. Call to Action! Now is the the time to pounce! Tell them what Action you want them to take to obtain the desired product/service. It could be make a phone call, click on a website link, buy a product, or obtain a free offer. Be specific, not misleading here.
5. Contact me! Include all pertinent information in your ads–company name, product or service offered, all contact info–website, phone, fax, address, logo.
6. Finalize your advert for errors. Look over your advert one final time, possibly get other colleagues involved for their input. Successful ads typically have simple fonts with lots of white space that are easy to read, with vivid graphics or pictures. Proofreading for spelling and grammar errors is a must. Get feedback on your ad from coworkers, friends, even strangers. Keep your brand identity consistent in all ads, using a style guide (if published) for all out-of-office communications. If your company logo is blue & green, an orange and purple ad is confusing.
7. TEST! Test your ad! Don’t commit to a year’s worth of advertising space until you know your advert does get attention and create clients. Measure ROI (return on investment) for all of your marketing activities.

Tips

• Don’t expect advertising to lead to instant sales. It will bring prospects to you, but usually not in droves. You need someone to sell once to these “ready to buy” customers.
• If an advert does work for you, keep it running consistently — same media, same frequency, same page– as your budget allows. The rule of thumb is that it takes at least 6 adverts in a single publication before it gets noticed.
• Use bold colors, no one gets noticed by being a flower on the wall!

Warnings

• Many people who sell advertising know very little about effective adverts. They will offer to create your ads for “free”. This is usually not a great deal. These are sales reps who make money by selling, not writing. Occasionally, you may find a fantastic writer who also sells adverts. But, it’s not very likely. Make sure they follow the above guidelines and create ads that will work before you sign the contract!

Olympic Turnaround: How the Olympic Games Stepped Back from the Brink of Extinction to Become the World’s Best Known Brand

        Olympic Turnaround: How the Olympic Games Stepped Back from the Brink of Extinction to Become the World’s Best Known BrandHigher, faster, stronger… The Olympic motto conjures images of heroes whose achievements transcended their athletic prowess–Jesse Owens, Mark Spitz, Nadia Comanesci–but also of tragedy and disgrace–the Israeli hostages in Munich, the Salt Lake City bidding scandal, payola to influence scoring. By 1980, the modern Olympic movement was gasping for breath, bankrupt financially, politically, and culturally. But under the leadership of Juan Antonio Samaranch, and, subsequently, Jacques Rogge, the Olympics began a journey back from the brink. Michael Payne, who served as the International Olympic Committee’s top marketer for over twenty years, offers unprecedented access to the people, the negotiations, and the machinations behind one of the most dramatic and colorful turnarounds in business or sports history. Through a multi-pronged strategy, the IOC managed to secure lucrative broadcasting commitments, entice well-heeled corporate sponsors, and parlay the symbolism of the Olympics into a brand for which cities around the world are willing to invest billions of dollars–with the potential for tremendous payoff. The 2008 Games in Beijing, for example, are expected to involve over 10,000 athletes from 200 countries, draw 20,000 media representatives, and generate over $4 billion in sponsorships and broadcasting rights. Packed with previously untold stories from the high-octane world where business, sports, politics, and media meet, Olympic Turnaround is a remarkable tale of organizational renewal and a fascinating glimpse behind the curtain of the world’s most iconic brand.

The Brand Mindset by James turner
Although I am owner and operator of a quaint establishment in a small suburban town, I wanted the community and the world to know about the image I was creating for my product. The Brand Mindset was the vehicle I used to transport my thinking and my product to developing the brand recognition I wanted. It was very informative and clearly instructive. Chapter four, “The Brand Promise” was particularly beneficial. The format , compared to other brand strategy books was superior in conveying the steps to establishing product recognition. An absolute for the serious entrepreneur.

The BrandStrategy Doctrine: Make It a “Way of Life” by
This book clearly, concisely, and thoroughly explains why a genuine brand is a “way of life” understood and lived by everyone in an organization–not just a superficial marketing or advertising ploy. One must “think like a Brand”, make a BrandPromise, communicate, live, and leverage the Brand. A strategic planning mindset is emphasized. Numerous detailed examples and graphics are provided to illustrate key concepts underlying the thought process involved in a BrandStrategy Doctrine. This book is a blueprint for understanding and applying the concept of branding to an organization. Each chapter ends with a one-page action guide. The final two chapters cover topics not found in any other book on branding: branding on the Internet, with evaluation criteria for one’s website, and specific tools to aid brand developers in staying connected with customers and stakeholders. These tools include quizzes, questionnaires, and checklists. No stone is left unturned to stress the importance of the brand in achieving excellent customer service, as each employee represents the brand. For example, how to answer the phone and how to most effectively communicate nonverbally are discussed, in order to “live the BrandPromise”. This goes well beyond what I would have expected from a book on this subject. If you wish to buy only one book on branding from what is available, buy this one. It is comprehensive yet easy and fun to read, and makes not just the planning, but the execution and continual evaluation of a BrandStrategy seem quite “doable”. After reading The Brand MindSet, I believed that any company could follow in the footsteps of other successfully branded companies.

The Brand Mindset by Keil Larsen
The Brand Mindset by Duane E. Knapp is a very helpful tool in building a brand for a company. Mr. Knapp lays out the method to succesful branding in an easy to follow and easily referenced manner. The examples were very helpful and relevant.If you are considering examining your brand and what you are promising your customers, you should consult this book. I know that I have come away with a whole new view as to how my company’s brand should be built.

The BrandMindset is a Must Read by Michelle S. Joyner
I purchased The BrandMindset to use as a reference for a marketing project I was working on for my MBA program. However, I wish that I had this book when I was working as a marketing communications manager. The BrandMindset clearly illustrates why brand strategy must be incorporated into every business function. The book demonstrates why in today’s competitive environment, a company’s brand is crucial in providing product distinction. A brand’s promise must be delivered in all aspects of the business, not just promoted in advertisements or logos. As a student, I especially liked the real-world examples and brand-profiles included in each chapter. They helped to present a clear picture of how this process is applied and proof of its success.

The treasure lies in the last chapter in which the author has provided several tools and sample documents for a company to use when mapping out their own BrandStrategy. Everyone from the executive to the receptionist should read this book, and I would strongly recommend it as a current resource to anyone studying marketing or management.

The bible of bulding a genuine brand by Michelle Pivetti
The Brand Mindset is a must read for any company trying to build a genuine brand. Duane Knapp clearly and concisely guides his readers through the process of developing a blue print for success that will take them well into the future. His knowledge and expertise are invaluable, and his book has become required reading for everyone in our company. An excellent tool for any business!

        Emotional Branding : How Successful Brands Gain the Irrational EdgeHow do you launch a product in today’s ultra-competitive and often saturated markets, break through the clutter, and develop strong and lasting customer loyalty? Get in touch with your customers’ deepest emotions, of course.
Emotional Branding teaches you the how’s and why’s of, “How does our product or service make our customers feel?” Author Daryl Travis (with a little help from Harry) leads you on a journey filled with colorful ideas and bottom-line lessons that will teach you how to instill brand loyalty in your customers. Whether you are a CEO, an advertising guru, or an innovative businessperson, you will discover how to use a brand’s mystique to create powerful and lasting emotional connections with your customers. Travis also addresses:
·Branding as a product of intuitive thinking
·How people develop emotional responses to brands
·Bringing together a company’s elements to form a brand
·Developing successful offshoot brands from existing ones
·And much more!
Emotional Branding teaches you how to identify and empower your product’s appeal and connect it to your customers’ experiences with your product. The results unlock the secrets to emotional branding, enhance the brand-consumer relationship, and show you and your business new prosperity—all from discovering and applying these powerful new ways to use the “F” word, F-E-E-L-I-N-G-S.
“Today’s marketplace confusion can only be sorted out one way: by brand power. Daryl Travis’s Emotional Branding sings, a book to savor and ponder. And, if approached in the right spirit, a book to change your worldview and renovate your bottom line. Hint: It’s for finance and human resource folks as much as for marketers, as much for three-person architectural studios as for Virgin or GE execs.” —Tom Peters, coauthor of In Search of Excellence
“Every CEO’s job is to create value and build assets, and every company’s most formidable asset is its brand. Daryl’s book is an important reminder that brands must be protected and nurtured. Read it, take it to heart, and expect some amazing things to happen in your business.” —James Berrien, president of Forbes magazine
“I’ve been in the business of building global brands for more than 25 years, and I’ve yet to read a better account of what it takes to make a brand. Apply all the analytics you want to a great company or brand and in the end you’ll find it comes down to how people feel about it. This book reveals why.” —Thomas Oliver, CEO of Bass Hotels & Resorts, former executive VP of marketing, FedEx

speaking fom the right side of my brain… by nat adamo
As the glut of companies rises to a feverish pitch, all vying for attention with the same dull messages for e-commerce ranking,this book comes as a welcome relief.Very few books focus on what truly motivates the consumer to take action. Many of them offer quantifiable analysis which although helpful, still leaves a void.It might be tempting to dismiss Emotional Branding as much fluff but a closer look would reveal considerable substance.Written in a light hearted prose it delivers the central question: How does it make you feel? This at once causes the reader to ponder the effect of all of our suppositions and disarm many of them.This part of the equation needs to be addressed more extensively by Internet marketers.If brand building on the Internet is truly about creating lasting,long-term relationships, then appealing to the emotional side is essential for our messages to be heard in the transparent world of cyberspace.

The ESSENSE Of Branding… by
Emotional Branding hits the bullseye on what true branding is all about…what promises do you make to your customers? what values do your company live by? and how do your truly serve your customers? Without this foundation, a brand is built on quicksand.

This book cuts through the fluff of superficial advertising, logos and corporate images and authentically connects a company’s beliefs and behaviors to its customers. I loved it!

Wonderful! by
In my business as a veterinarian, emotions strongly influence the behavior of my clients but this often seems overlooked in business literature. Emotional Branding is the first management book I’ve seen which tackles this critical issue to any business today… how your customers FEEL about your business.

This book helped me see how everything my clinic says and does influences by brand promise. I’ve shared the book with my staff and it has sparked us to make many simple changes to enhance our brand (and to stop doing some of the little things that were not true to our brand promise). We’ve already seen great results.

If you are looking for another typical college 101 academic text filled with positioning maps, SWOT diagrams and simplistic charts-then this book is NOT for you. But, if you want to see your business in a fresh light and feel like being inspired, then I highly recommend this lovely book.

It’s Almost Everything by William M. Rowe
Emotional Branding is many things, but it’s not everything. It’s not boring. It’s not without insight. It’s not heavy (weight-wise, that is). It doesn’t even give you the impression that you’re trudging through another business book. It’s definitely not disappointing.

Daryl Travis spins his anecdotes about successful - and not so successful - brands and his encounters with Harry into a web of inspiring lessons that teaches you how to win and keep customers. He shows you how brand promises can soar as high as a hot-air balloon, or sit idle on the tarmac like a broke-down plane. If you’re a marketing professional, picking up and sharing any number of Travis’s examples with your clients will strengthen your pitch and make you look smart. And if looking smart and being successful are important to you, you really ought to read Emotional Branding.

Emotional Branding is exciting. It’s insightful. It’s practical. It’s deep in a fun way. It’s an easy read. It makes you feel good. It’s worth every minute you spend learning from it.

Nothing New by

Buy this if you care about Branding by Dikran Iskenderian
Look, I’ve listened to hundreds of audio tapes and CDs for many years. I have the entire collections from Trump to Brian Tracey to Earl Nightingale.

This is my favorite audio CD. I have alreadcy listened to the entire program 3 times and it was well worth it. I haven’t even touched the multimedia CD yet. It’s very educational and done so well. I want a sequel!

Branding is important by M. Ford
An excellent branding tutorial. I thought the workbook would be silly filler but it was actually very helpful and was more like taking a course instead of passively listening to the audio. The workbook really does help build a brand and I learned from the audio the importance of building a brand. As a result I am now rethinking my entire product launch. I want to do it right and start with a strong brand that I can use to maximum effect. If you want advice on something, ask someone that has achieved what you want to achieve, who doesnt want to achieve what the Donald has? Dont forget to pick up other books for even more indepth knowlege but if this is the only one you get, you will be doing great.

Getting clear on the essence of your brand by Rik Jones
Excellent. LIstened several times, did the workbook. Explains clearly what underlies the superficial aspects of your brand (logo, image, etc.). Takes you through the step-by-step process of what makes you special and unique. Essential for any person or business selling services or products that are intangible or complex. Do you have a hard time explaining what it is that you actually do … in a few seconds? This will enable to do that with clarity and elegance. Highly recommended.
