SHHH…Don’t Say the “A” Word

2011-12-28T13:12:00.000-08:00

Advertising is not a bad word yet media solution specialists(Sales People) are being trained to not say this word at any time whileproposing marketing opportunities.

Definition:

Advertising:The public promotion of something such as a product, service, business, orevent in order to attract or increase interest in it. –Encarta Dictionary:English (North America)

(Updated definition by Scott McGohan)

Advertisingis a public service to inform consumers of available products, services, orother. Advertisers initiate advertising with an assumed calculated risk whileattempting to maximize return on investment by earning public interest to levels that delivers more moneythan what was invested in advertising.

Advertising is not a bad word and business owners know theyhave to engage in the activity in order to become or stay relevant in theirmarketplace. Some business owners declare; “we don’t advertise”, “ouronly advertising is Word of Mouth” or “Advertising does not work”.

To them I say:

· Do you have business cards? (Advertising)

· Do you have a brochure or menu? (Advertising)

· Do you have a website? (24 hour interactive advertising…ifnot you may want to consider it!)

· Word of Mouth is the oldest and truest form of advertising.Investing in public announcements is a proven way to earn more customers andmore mouths spreading your word in the marketplace.

· Advertising only works to your expectations whendone right!

Call it what you want but advertising is what it is… It is necessarytoday more than ever and will continue to be well past my time. Savvy mediasales professionals can call it what they want in order to get to the decisionmaker, but savvy business owners see a duck and call it a duck. The greatestchallenge is to know how to invest your adverting dollars and which convincingsales person truly has the marketing solution that will work for you.
