Consumers are exposed to thousands of advertising messages each day, requiring marketing departments to look closely at who their target market is and how to get their product to stand out among those who will use their product the most.\u00a0 For this reason, choosing a strategy from these marketing mix examples can ensure successes. Be sure that it reaches the right target market is important, and the best way to do that is to develop a marketing plan using a broad mix of media methods as well as the right amount of repetition.<\/p>\n
It is important to remember that different consumers obtain advertising messages through different methods.\u00a0 Although many marketers believe that older people prefer more traditional methods, while younger people lean more toward newer methods, such as social media, this is not necessarily the case.\u00a0 In fact, many studies indicate that the majority of consumers between the ages of 18-25 prefer learning of special offers and promotions through direct mail <\/a>rather than through e-mail.\u00a0 What some of these studies indicate, however, is that although the consumer prefers receiving the offer through postal mail, they will access information online that they receive in the mail, such as online coupons or offers.\u00a0 Therefore, using a marketing mix that combines online with traditional seems to offer the best return on the marketing dollar.<\/p>\n In 1885, German psychologist Hermann Ebbonghaus found that people\u2019s memories are short through research he conducted.\u00a0 His research indicated that the average person forgets 60% of what they learned within a half-day, and what they forget is lost rapidly after hearing the information.\u00a0 His research indicates that repetition can result in better retention.\u00a0 Therefore, advertisers who want consumers to remember their product should invest in a marketing mix where the advertising is often repeated.\u00a0 This does not necessarily mean running the same advertisement repeatedly, but also concentrating the advertisements on smaller target audiences to reach more of the consumers who are interested in your product.<\/p>\n When developing your marketing mix, it is important to remember that consumers retain advertising information in different ways and they learn about promotions using different methods as well.\u00a0 Therefore, it is important to develop a marketing mix that combines a broad range of media types as well as a focus on repetition that will help the target audience retain the message you are sending.\u00a0 For more information on the marketing mix, contact us.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Consumers are exposed to thousands of advertising messages each day, requiring marketing departments to look closely at who their target (…)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":28786,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[322,131,327,292],"class_list":["post-27585","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-marketing","tag-digital-marketing","tag-direct-mail","tag-marketing-tips","tag-print-marketing"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27585","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27585"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27585\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31001,"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27585\/revisions\/31001"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28786"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27585"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27585"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.xpressdocs.com\/s\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27585"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Repetition<\/h3>\n
