Entrepreneurs can now advertise to the whole world easier then ever before. However, the competition among companies to create a memorable, desirable advertisement is also negatively influencing our population’s youth. Because of the substantial increase of advertisements during recent years, children have become exposed to both the mature world and the consumer market at increasingly earlier, even infant ages. “The increase [in advertisements] comes from advertisers trying to out-yell each other”, says J. Walker Smith, president of the consulting firm Yankelovich. If a marketer feels drowned out, "They just turn up the volume."
In the early eighties, Hyundai Motor Company created an advertising campaign that appeared in many popular magazines. The advertisement was directed towards the working class who couldn’t afford many extravagant items. The punch line of the ad says that the car looks like a million dollars, therefore suggesting that people have the opportunity to buy a car that is worth more than they will have to pay. This gives them the opportunity to own a “superior” product that they would never have had the chance to buy. The article, “The Parable of the Democracy of Goods”, by Roland Marchand states that by convincing middle class consumers of the desirability of the “best” products and then offering those products at an affordable price, the middle class can have those same luxuries.
When he was younger he planned on creating something for the rich as well for common man that would involve engines. He created the Ford Model T, which was affordable for the poor, and continued to create Model A and other modeled cars (Joans 2010). By the end of World War I half of Americans owned the model T car. The affordable cars like those Ford produced transformed America (Roak et al., 2011). Ford created the automobile industry, which employed thousands of workers and inspired new industries as well (Heritage, 2010).The new industries included but were not limited to: gas stations, mechanics, fast food restaurants drive-ins (pig stands) and motels (A&E, 2006).
Henry Ford was very famous for promoting this wonderful commodity that represented a new kind of freedom. It was a symbol of the American Dream, and everyone was striving to have the new product. “The automobile was the backbone of economic growth.” The first real automobile appeared in Middletown in 1900; however, it wasn’t until Henry Ford came around and created a mass production of automobiles that the machine that would provide easy travel would become popular. Although the automobile created such a wonderful freedom, many adults thought that it was tearing families apart. Teenagers were spending more time with their friends driving around instead of staying at home with their family.
My problem is to link “baby boomers” and “echo boomers” together while making profits for my business. The study shows that the oldest “echo boomers” just get into job for a few years while the youngest “echo boomers” are still studying at school. They need to fit in the society and enrich their social experience in order to earn money, and a good they really need is car. “Baby boomers” certainly have cars, but “echo boomers” are the group of people that need cars. The used car market provide a chance to link this two generation together – “baby boomers” can sell their used cars to “echo boomers”.
He also notes that these television ads will reach consumers in 15 non-DFW counties as well. We believe this is not the best course of action for the company because 75% of the audience reached will not be interested purchasing paint. Also, this advertising budget is not focused towards a market where 40% of our sales dollars are generated. For this advertising campaign to be successful, we would have to recoup the $350,000 dollar investment plus generate new business to justify the investment, which we are not confident will happen. The VP of Operations argued to cut prices by 20% on all paint products in order to be more price-competitive in the market.
“Generation Y” is now entering the high spending years of their early adulthood. The population considered “Generation Y,” veers away from direct marketing due to growing up with marketing saturation, and tends to seek out their own information when they feel that they are in a comfortable place to purchase a vehicle (Generation Y, 1999). The automotive industry strives to make its customers happy. There are many designs and styles of cars to target to the different customers in the market. A survey reported that 44% of Americans desired to purchase a car, 25% desired to purchase an SUV, and 19% desired to purchase a truck (Naughton, 2005).
The commercials are designed to reflect a more “grown-up” approach, with the young boy that appeared in the Protégé ads removed but still delivering the “Zoom-Zoom” phrase in the voiceover. The ads also use more action shots of the car and its workings. Promotions were done in magazines, newspapers; they also had a deal with ESPN, which includes advertising company's new Stylish, Insightful, and Spirited design. The Mazda6 is the successor of the Mazda 626. The advertising strategy is no more similar with the protégé; it has pictures as the more matured version or model, so continuing with the Zoom Zoom theme, made was the first example of a less playful than the protégé, as it is mainly targeted to the Mazda ESPN’s various media such as, print (ESPN Magazine), TV, radio and the Internet as well as in ESPN Zone restaurants.
