Advertisement Ideas: Be A Champion Like The Miami Heat!!!

What does it take to be a champion in advertising to be like The Miami Heat? It takes hard work, dedication, knowledge, a commitment to excellence, a dedication to being of service and value, and the willingness to see advertising as an investment not an expense. The Heat’s General Manager, Pat Riley, put the components in place and assigned a coach to guide them to a championship. The plan they put in place came to fruition in the form of Back To Back Championships. Much like the Heat it is important to put the correct team in place so you can be a champion in your business.

Micky Arison of The Heat empowered his General Manager, Pat Riley, by given him a clear-cut plan and what his goals and objectives were for The Miami Heat. Like Micky Arison you as a business owner must empower your managers to make advertising decisions based on the directives that you give them. If you do not have a team and are a sole proprietor then you will desire to create a plan to be a road map for your marketing. A strategic plan is a necessary component to insure for your success.

Advertisement Ideas: Why A Full Page?

As an ad executive and marketing consultant with La Bonita Kidz and Teenz Magazine, www.labonitakidz.com. I am often asked why a full-page. My answer is always because it gives you an opportunity to tell your story because facts will tell but stories sell. The second answer I give is because it allows you an opportunity to section the page off and promote many things about your business. My third answer is because for $500 + tax you are getting maximum exposure in the market place over a 3 month period of time as we are a quarterly magazine.

Advertisement Ideas: The Importance Of A Tag Line!!!!

When you walk into a networking function how are you known. I have developed the moniker Jonathan JDOGG Lederman, The Spiritual Emcee Maximizing Your Message so as to encompass what I do and how I am of value and service to those who elect to hire me and use my myriad of services. One of my clients helps people with investments and fixes their financial rating so I gave her the moniker(tag line), Monica Bailey, The Financial Fixer. If you are an entrepreneur it is imperative to have a tag line that is easy to remember and effectively describes who you are and what you do. If you work for a corporation or small mom and pop operation it is important to create a tag line so that your customers/clients will relate to you and continue to do business with you. As you develop your tag line think what do I do and how do I want to be perceived.

McDonald’s has done a great job of creating tag lines that are easy to remember and resonate with their target audience. Over the years they have had many tag lines. One thing has remained consistent and that is their logo. Their logo is one of the most recognized logos in the world. The reason it is so recognizable is that they spend money on marketing and branding and make these two elements a priority. I use McDonald’s for example purposes only.
