bussiness model of newspapers 100 years ago
o Most media share the same idea
• Fearless girl
o Statue on Wallstreet in New York
o Won the overall advertising price in Cannes
o It won because it got a lot of media attention
o They placed it one day and nobody knew what it was

• Important effects for good advertising

exposed towards the brand

Earned media Word-of-mouth
• Marcom stakeholder groups
o Media
§ Need advertisers for revenue
o Consumer
o Advertiser
§ Need media to reach consumers
o Actions from one group can effect both
§ Example: consumer using adblockers à media are getting less money
and advertisers lose a way of reaching you
§ Example: dissatisfied customers can blame the medium and/or the
advertiser

brand value

,Two dynamics: reach vs relevance
Elaboration Likelihood Model
• People have 2 systems of thinking
o System 1: your automatic thinking
o System 2: conscious system à you truly think about it
§ When you have enough motivation for it
§ When you have enough capacity to think about it
§ When you have enough time
Predominant in the advertising industry
• Reach
o Hardly noticed peripheral cues affect us, certainly when repeated over and
over again
o Reach is the biggest part of advertising
• Relevance
o The best way to make consumers attentive of your message is to make it
relevant
o This will make them cognitively involved in the message
• An ad is a good ad when people pay attention to it
• Relevance is a important cue for the processing en persuasing aspect of the ad
o Without relevance there is only ‘reach’
Two important pittfalls
• When aiming for eyeballs
o You are typically satisfied with low involvement, peripheral processing
o Do not forget to use appropriate peripheral cues to lift your ad effect
• When aiming for relevance
o You’ll use all kinds of tricks to increase the odds of high involvement, central
processing
o Do not forget to make sure the attitude effect is positive
Summary

, 1.2. The ‘theory’ behind advertising
Hierarchy of effects
• Linear evolution from cognitive effects over affective to behavioral effects
o A hierachy in the effects: cognitive – affective – behavioral
o Examples: AIDA, DAGMAR,…
o Later refinded into different hierarchies such as the Foote-Cone-Belding grid
Funnel metaphor
• Still used extensively
• Can partly explain the continued focus on eyeballs as a marcom goal
• Hierarchy of effects models
o Are still useful as a media mix metaphor
o Have little proven academic value
o Are still used, because sometimes they are easy to sell
o Academically, they are replaced by attitude models (ex. ELM)
1.3. Don Schulz: the future of advertising
• Advertising was already a process for sellers 100 years ago
o Sellers were trying to attract the attention of potential customers
o The term advertising has fractionalized into a host of seemingly more specific
but commonly marketer-generated topics, issues and activities
o At the same time it seems that consumers have aggregated all of these terms
into one term advertising / promotion
• Don Schulz prefers to subsume ‘advertising’ under the wider umbrella of ‘marketing
communications’
o We stick to ‘advertising’
§ Paid-for, non-personal communication delivered through a mass
medium and with an identifiable source
• Despite its tradition, little progress seems to be perceived in the field
o There is a lack of truly measurable results or acountability
o Although this is the case, the advertising spending keeps going on
