CAMPAIGN
An advertising campaign is a series of advertisement
messages that share a single idea and theme which make up
an integrated marketing communication (IMC). Advertising
campaigns appear in different media across a specific
time frame.
Campaign Type 1:
THE WORD HOOK
The word hook is a repeatable catch phrase from ad to ad.
Great examples of advertising campaigns using the word
hook include Verizon's "Can you hear me now?" created by
Bozell/New York to convince the world that Verizon has
the best network.
How effective was it? Consider that in July of 2003, a J.D.
Power & Associates survey ranked Verizon at the top of
the list for wireless quality, while Alltel was ranked
number seven-even though they share the same network
through a nationwide roaming agreement.

COMMON ADVERTISING
STRATEGIES
Ideal Kids: The kids in commercials are often a little
older and a little more perfect than the target audience of
the ad. They are, in other words, role models for what the
advertiser wants children in the target audience to
think they want to be like. A commercial that is targeting
eight year-olds, for instance, will show 11 or 12 year-old
models playing with an eight year old's toy.
