25. * What is a compelling communication?
Brand Response
Salience Differentiation Bond/Loyalty
Keeps the brand
from of mind for
when a need
occurs e.g. When I
run out of soap I
will choose Dove
Direct Response
Ensuring the brand
is differentiated
from its
competitors e.g. I
can identify the
brand the second I
see the ad
Creates relevant
and loyalty to the
brand e.g. If I want
bake beans its got
to be Heinz
Motivation Identifies Need Call to Action
It motivates me to
take action
immediately e.g. I
have been putting
it off but ill do it
now
Jogs your memory
that its something
you need or need
to do e.g. my
insurance is up for
renewal
Clear concise
message of what
the consumer
needs to do e.g.
call us now on…
26. Background
What is the big picture?
What are the key trends
in the marketplace?
Any challenges or
opportunities in the
market?
For example:
In March 2014 c5 million
will be coming to renew
their ISA we believe
people are looking for an
account that values their
loyalty so they do not
need to keep changing
each year our product
does just that.
Objectives
Concise statement of the
effect the ad should have
one consumers. Consider
think, feel and do.
Refer back to the brand &
direct response
objectives.
For example:
We would like consumers
to feel like they can trust
us with their savings for
the long-term, making
them feel more secure
with us and increasing
sales of our account by
20%

27. Target Audience
Some up both the
demographic and
attitudinal audiences you
would like to talk to with
this communication
For example:
Young professionals that
are highly mobile, have a
high need for security and
are financially savvy that
they are continually
looking for the best rate
Consumer Insight
Sum up what is driving
you to believe that there
is a gap in the
consumer/market for your
offering
For example:
Consumers feel let down
that banks constantly
offer new customer higher
rates rather than
rewarding existing
customers for their loyalty
* What is in the brief?
28. Single most
important message
If only one message was
communicated what
would it be?
This is the most
important thing
consumers should know
For example:
Trust us to look after your
savings over the long
term and we will never be
beaten on rate
Reasons they will
believe
Proof points or features
that validate the message
For example:
We constantly check the
market and up our rates if
someone is offering a
higher rate
We send you a daily
statement with market
rates so you can compare
