26. Analysis
Media usage is shifting, but traditional media is still
valuable
An integrated marketing plan that uses multiple
media platforms is important in marketing.
In order to get noticed in a crowded media
space, marketers must use online media.
In order to build credibility, marketing must use
advertising in traditional media.
27. Recommendation
Move more marketing budget to online, social
media and mobile platforms to gain attention
while reserving some budget for marketing in
traditional media for credibility.
The message for all campaigns across integrated
marketing channels must be coordinated and
consistent so that the target will identify the
company across all media channels.
28. The Take Away
• Online or In Decline
–Marketers have to integrate and use online
marketing channels to get attention and
notice, choose the right channels for target
• Seven Touches
–The rule of multiple interactions across
multiple channels with the consumer
remains. Marketers need to use multiple
platforms, including traditional media to
maximize reach and build credibility
29. Limitations
• Limited audience in size, geography, age and
scope
• Data is aging while media are changing rapidly
• Focus was on traditional media
consumption, not usage
• No detail on radio or TV usage
30. Proposed Research Opportunities
• Extend the research
• Expand the audience
• Increase questions online, reduce media outlets
with more focus?
• Expand questions for online media usage?
• How are each media used, and how often?
• Do some channels serve a narrower focus?
• Follow up interviews for more qualitative data
• Are the differences in media usage statistically
significant enough to make an impact?
31. Future Research Questions
• Which social media works best for each marketing
objective?
• How do consumers use SM in consumer buying
behavior? Does SM influence consumer buying
behavior?
• How does SM amplify WOM?
• How can SM be used to increase brand loyalty and
brand enthusiasts?
• What is each SM best used for in MarCom?
• Can a best practice model for IMC be created?

"Online advertising has reached a level of maturity comparable to other mediums that have been deemed as significant ad platforms," said Sherrill Mane, a senior vice president at IAB. "The fact that it's still able to post double-digit growth speaks to the power of the Internet at a time when the economy is still struggling."The IAB estimates that Internet-ad revenue in 2010 surpassed that of newspapers, which amounted to $22.8 billion, as well as $22.5 billion from cable TV networks, $17.6 billion from broadcast TV networks and $15.3 billion from radioRead more: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703551304576261092386405686.html#ixzz1Jt3azQcW
