Types of Advertising
Product-Oriented Advertising
Most advertising spending is directed toward an organizations product. In most cases the goal of product advertising is to clearly promote a specific product to a targeted audience. Marketers can accomplish this in several ways from a low-key approach that simply provides basic information about a product (informative advertising) to blatant appeals that try to convince customers to purchase a product (persuasive advertising) It may include direct comparisons between the marketers product and its competitors offerings (comparative advertising).
Sometimes marketers intentionally produce product advertising where the target audience cannot readily see a connection to a specific product. Marketers of new products may follow this teaser approach in advance of a new product introduction to prepare the market for the product. For instance, one week before the launch of a new product a marketer may air a television advertisement proclaiming After next week the world will never be the same
Image Advertising
Image advertising is undertaken primarily to enhance an organizations perceived importance to a target market. Image advertising does not focus on specific products but it presents what an organization has to offer. In these types of ads, if products are mentioned it is within the context of what we do rather than a message touting the benefits of a specific product. Image advertising is often used in situations where an organization needs to educate the targeted audience on some issue. For instance, where a merger has occurred between two companies and the newly formed company has taken on a new name,
Advocacy Advertising Organizations also use advertising to send a message intended to influence a targeted audience. In most cases there is an underlying benefit sought by an organization when they engage in advocacy advertising. For instance, an organization may take a stand on a political issue which they feel could negatively impact the organization and will target advertisements to voice their position on the issue.
Public Service Advertising In some countries, not-for-profit organizations are permitted to run advertisements through certain media outlets free-of-charge if the message contained in the ad concerns an issue viewed as for the greater good of society. For instance, ads directed at social causes, such as teen-age smoking, illegal drug use and mental illness, may run on television, radio and other media without cost to organizations sponsoring the advertisement.
