24. B2B advertising
This typically occurs when:
• A business is sourcing materials for their
production process, e.g. a food manufacturer
purchasing salt.
• A business needs the services of another for
operational reasons, e.g. a food manufacturer
employing an accountancy firm to audit their
finances.
• A business re-sells goods and services produced
by others, e.g. a retailer buying the end
product from the food manufacturer

31. Glittering generalities
In this type of ads,
advertisers make
use of logical
fallacies. They use
appealing words
without giving any
concrete idea about
what is being
advertised.
In this technique, the
advertisers don’t say
that they are the best
from the rest, but don’t
also deny
Eg; Shampoo ads
Weasel Words
32. Plain folks appeal
This advertising appeal
aims at attracting the
mass by using common
people to advertise a
product
Unfinished ads
The advertisers here
just play with words by
saying that their
product works better
but don’t answer how
much more than the
competitor
Eg; Lays
Horlicks
33. Facts and
statistics
Attempts to appeal
the masses to use
the advertised
product, by
providing the
audience with
survey results.
Advertisers often
use statistical
evidences and
market surveys to
publicize their
product
35. Ideal family and kids
• Advertisers show that
the families or kids
using their product are
a happy go lucky family.
• The ad always has a neat
and well furnished home,
well mannered kids and
the family is a simple
and sweet kind of family
Patriotic ads
• These ads show how one
can support their
country while he uses
their product or service.
37. Measuring advertising
effectiveness
According to Philip Kotler and Armstrong,the
Gurus of marketing there are two most
popular areas which need to be measured for
knowing the effectiveness of advertisement
and they are:
• Communication Effect
• Sales Effect
1. Direct rating method
2. Portfolio tests
3. Laboratory test
38. Advertising myths
• Advertising works only for some business
• Advertising is only needed when business is
slow
• Advertise creates needs
• If the product is not selling, advertise it
• Advertise effects persist for decades
• Humor in ads
• Sex sells
• Advertising costs so much
