What promotional or engagement strategies will you use?

Promotion: Integrated Marketing Communications Strategy
Use the template below to layout your design for a marketing campaign aimed at your target segment.

Approach
How will you achieve your goal? What promotional or engagement strategies will you use? Think creatively about campaigns you’ve seen for companies or brands that have caught your attention, and how your campaign will make an impact on your target audience. Will your campaign influence? Engage? Educate? Nurture? Build awareness? Etc.

Example: Use email marketing, social media and a sales promotion (prize drawing at a conference) to encourage veteran attendees to post online about their experiences and plans for attending the user conference using the event hashtag. Use these testimonials to amplify dialogue about the conference (via social media), build awareness (via email marketing, Web site, and targeted digital advertising) and convince peers they should attend.

Goal
In consideration of your previous analysis, you need to identify at least one goal for the campaign.

Describe the target segment for your campaign.
What is the goal you want to achieve with the campaign?
What is your call to action?
Make sure your goal is S.M.A.R.T. (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timed.)
Example:

Audience: HR professionals who are casual and power-users of Chumber systems
Increase event registration by 20% by the start date of the annual user conference.
Call to action: Register online today.
Messages
Identify the primary message for your campaign, 2-3 message pillars, and proof points for each. Be sure to include a call to action that helps to achieve your goal. Remember that messages should align to reinforce your positioning statement. Be sure to include a call to action that helps to achieve your goal.

Example:

Primary Message: The annual user conference provides phenomenal value for training, professional development, peer networking and learning how to get the most out of your investment.
Message Pillar: This conference welcomes you into a dynamic, well-connected and highly competent professional community.
Proof Point: Veteran attendees return year after year because it recharges their skills, knowledge and professional networks.
Call to Action: Register online today.
Promotional Mix and IMC Tools
Identify the key marketing communication methods and specific IMC tools you will use in your marketing campaign. How will you use each of these tools? Look for ways different methods and tools can build on each other: advertising, direct marketing, public relations, digital marketing, guerrilla marketing, personal selling, sales promotion.
Example:

Digital Marketing

Web site: Add testimonials from prior attendees, event hashtag, rolling hashtag Tweets box, social media buttons to make registration easy to share via social media
Direct Marketing

Email marketing: Reach out to prior year’s attendees who are already registered. Ask them to post about plans to attend the upcoming conference. Conduct an email campaign with the target audience list to generate awareness, interest, desire to attend a conference.
Sales Promotion + Digital Marketing

Contest/giveaway: Offer giveaway where Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn posts trigger entries in a “conference evangelist” contest/giveaway to take place at conference opening session, one entry per social media tool per day
Sales Alignment
At what point(s) in the sales process (or sales funnel) does this campaign operate? Sales process stages are: 1) generate leads; 2) build relationships/discover needs; 3) present solution/resolve concerns; 4) close the sale; 5) monitor and follow up. How does your campaign support sales activity?

Measurement (KPIs—Key Performance Indicators)

How will you measure the success of the campaign? Select 3-6 KPIs (key performance indicators) that you will measure. Briefly explain why each KPI you select will be a good indicator of whether your campaign is successful.

Examples of KPIs:

Total sales/revenue
New/incremental sales
Number of qualified leads generated
Net Promoter Score

What steps your team members should take, or what they should expect to do differently.

As a leader, you will face multiple crises. While you will easily weather many bad situations, there will be some that will seriously threaten your company and your reputation. How you respond to crises will determine your fate. You must use all appropriate communication tools to emerge victorious. In your course materials, Jack lists five principles for managing a crisis:
1. Assume the worst.
2. There are no secrets.
3. Your crisis management will not be portrayed favorably.
4. Your organization will undergo changes.
5. Your organization will come out of the crisis stronger.
Additionally, Warren Buffett reminds us of four simple steps:
1. Get it right.
2. Get it fast.
3. Get it out.
4. Get it over.
For this assignment, you will apply key concepts from your materials – especially from Jack and Warren – to respond to a predicament in two ways. First, you will write a brief analysis of a company that recently underwent a crisis. You will discuss what crisis the company faced, how the company responded, and whether the company’s response was successful. Second, you will then write an internal memo from the perspective of a leader within that company. This memo will be addressed to your team members, and it will communicate information about the crisis and your response.
Instructions:
• Review your materials from Weeks 4, 5, and 6.
• Review The Wall Street Journal article you found for your Week 5 Discussion Question and review your posting. Use these materials and any additional resources you have found on your crisis of choice to write a 2-3 page paper. Use the outline below to structure your paper:
1. Describe the crisis faced by your chosen company (1 paragraph)
2. Summarize how the company responded to the crisis (1 paragraph)
3. Use Jack or Warren’s advice to evaluate how effective the company’s response was (1-2
paragraphs)
4. Provide a strategic overview of your internal email. Explain what exactly you hope your email accomplishes (1-2 paragraphs)
• Imagine you are a leader in your chosen company. In a 1-2 page internal memo to your team members, explain how you personally would respond to your crisis. Make sure you cover the following:
1. The nature of the crisis
2. How the company – and you – are responding to the situation
3. What steps your team members should take, or what they should expect to do differently
