16、which is in physical format at the CSUF library; and, Mediamark Research, Inc. (MRI), which CSUF has added to its online resources.In addition, you will need to complete consumer behavior analysis on the current users (and these could be multiple constituencies).It is necessary to understand who, wh
17、at, how, when, and why consumers buy/use an organizations product or service.You should be able to draw a picture of the typical user or customer in order to turn your IMC plan into reality.In comparing the pro the market that exists in aggregate, you may also find some market opportunities for grow

19、 to know who the competition is.Further, you need to know how, why, and when the competition will respond to changes in IMC tactics and executions.This analysis should examine both direct and indirect competition, with an emphasis on direct competition.The following list should help to generate a co

23、 may be found within the organization itself.You need to examine the marketing plan and see how all of the marketing elements fit together, and how value is delivered to the consumer.An effective product analysis will examine:1.Product or service background2.Current problems facing the product, bran
24、d, or service3.Past IMC or advertising themes4.Past IMC budgets5.Past to present media spending6.Current slogan, tag line, copy position, and so on.In addition, you need to thoroughly evaluate the quality of the product, the benefits offered by the product, and its need and want satisfiers.You will
25、need to examine if there have been additions or deletions to the product or service in recent years.Has the organization developed new markets, or found new applications or uses for their product?How do channel intermediaries feel about the product?Is distribution effective?Is the brand name well kn

27、 the situation analysis should be a further definition of thetarget market and audience.ObjectivesObjectives are simply goals, things that need to be accomplished, and milestones that need to be reached.Marketing objectives are usually stated in quantitative terms such as sales, profits, market shar
28、e, or margins and they affect the IMC objectives, which are usually stated in more qualitative terms (this does not mean that they are not measured quantitativelyits just that they are precursors to achieving marketing objectives).IMC objectives are usually such things as increasing awareness, chang
29、ing beliefs or perceptions, changing or reinforcing image, positioning an organization vis-vis the competition, increasing desire, or facilitating action (a purchase or behavioral change).Media objectives state the impact that you expect to have on an audience in terms of reach and frequency.Objecti
30、ves must meet the following criteria: measurability, quantifiability, realism, time-specificity.StrategiesStrategies are pathways to achieve the goals.Every good marketing strategy is comprised of an identification of a target market and the pathway to this market.IMC strategies identify the audienc
31、e and how to reach this audience.IMC strategies must detail a copy platform (to be discussed in classbut briefly, this details the target audience, primary competition, reasons to purchase, and a consumer promise).Media strategies must detail your selection of media vehicles and a schedule that refl
32、ects your efforts to reach your target audience.TacticsTactics are the executionable aspects of the campaign (i.e., whos going to do what, when, how, etc.).EvaluationThe plan must have a section on how the IMC campaign is to be evaluated.The evaluative procedure should refer back to the objectives a
33、nd indicate how they were achieved.Evaluation measures are both pre- and post-test in nature and include copy testing, concept tests, tracking, etc.Clients want some return on their IMC investment, so you must be able to show how the campaign will accomplish the desired ends.BudgetYou need to establish what amount of money will be needed to achieve the IMC objectives.Of course, the client may rein in your spending.
