This document discusses various networking components for event management, including print media like newspapers and magazines, radio, television, outdoor media like billboards and transit vehicles, and social media platforms. Print media advantages include geographic targeting and credibility, while disadvantages are limited color and lifespan. Radio uses jingles and live calls. Television provides event coverage and appeals to senses. Social media is used for community building, publicity, and event promotion before, during and after an event through platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

16. • Direct Response
Television adverts, if done correctly, can contribute to
direct answer television (drtv), which basically means that
the crowd has a direct response to your advert, and the
phone is picked up by either, makes contact via e-mail or
text. All ads are made with a specific goal in mind as a
whole between you and the service and the complete
marketing strategy must be thought out. The direct
answer gives a quantifiable goal for your advert, and is
substantially more effective than old kinds of marketing.
Why Television :
17. • Sales promotion
Then tv advertising is a great method to declare it and get the
message across to millions of individuals instantly, if you have
an unique offer, sale or partnership. Any sales promo needs
people in order to make it work, a sales promotion that no
one understands about is not going to be really successful. So
a TV advert enables you to reach your audience in a very
succinct manner.
• Appeal to the senses
TV advertisements can use both sight and sound rather than
radio which simply relies on sounds. An image on the screen
can be quite strong. The combination of sight and sound
ensures that the message within this advert stays with them
for a long time and gets through to the audience. During tv ad
creation, many techniques can be used to ensure the senses
are excited and engaged while seeing your advertising.
