Like it or not Miley Cyrus twerking at The MTV Video Music Award created quite the buzz across social media with everyone seemingly having an opinion on her actions. Now imagine as a business owner or marketing executive what you would have to do to create this type of hype. Would you be willing to implement a philosophy of Twerk this and go over the top so you are on the top of the mind of the consumer who will seek your products or services. The key to marketing and promotion is to be remembered and stand out from others in your industry. Ask yourself what am I doing daily to create advertising and promotions that attract people to seek my products and services? Ask what new innovative advertising ideas am I implementing to be on the top of the mind of the consumer so they think of you first? Ask where am I advertising, how am I advertising, what is my core message?

The Twerk This philosophy is to do what you feel is right and not to care what people think as some will, some won’t, so what, some waiting, next is the way to start.

Advertisement Ideas: How To Make Your Advertising Work!!!

I have been involved in advertising and marketing for over 20 years from selling advertising to being a production coordinator I have seen all types of advertising and I have heard all types of excuses. The biggest excuse I hear is my advertising didn’t work. This prompted me to write this blog how to make your advertising work.

The first component is to have a catchy headline as the idea is to grab the audience. I remember when I was in college we designed an ad that read in big bold letters SEX and then in small letters underneath it read of both kinds will be attending Coffee and Donuts Night on Wednesday from 7- 9 PM at Hofstra USA. We had one of our largest turnouts that night. I remember when I joined The Coral Springs Jaycees we did a fundraiser we called it TOPLESS CAR WASH and the signs read TOPLESS CAR WASH $1.99 we do the top for $.01 it was a bit misleading but people thought it was cute and we raised over $500 in the day for our cause.

The right headline will grab your audience!!!!

Creating a logo with a memorable slogan and using it across all of your advertising and marketing consistently will help in making your advertising work. People associate logos and a strong message with a strong company.

Advertisement Ideas: How Creative and Proactive Are You?

I always ask the question to my clients, How Creative and Proactive Are You? I ask this question as these two elements are very important to growing a business be a brick and mortar business or a home based business. Many time I find that the reason a business is slow is that the owner may lack the creativity needed to gain recognition and to build their brand. I also find that many business owners wait to react instead of planning and implementing programs that are proactive and thus keep them ahead of the competition.

A great example of being creative and proactive would be to capitalize on the latest Ralph Lauren Controversy of their outsourcing the manufacturing of the USA Team Uniforms to China and to promote that your products in your brick and mortar business are made in America. Many years ago there was a campaign Look For The Union Label that increased revenues and brand recognition for those that participated.

By looking for current issues and capitalizing on them you can increase your brand awareness and continue drive business. Another Example of creativity and proactivity is to capitalize on the upcoming election. Imagine running a campaign that gives a special rate on your products and services if someone presents their voter registration card to you. You could promote this in all of your ads, on your social media, and in your communications. Continue reading Advertisement Ideas: How Creative and Proactive Are You?
