Promotional Campaign

Communication is as the passage of messages from the source, who is the sender, to the target who is the receiver. The sender encodes the information into symbols which are understandable by the receiver thus enabling decoding of the original message and giving of feedback.

Memo regarding a New 'La Fresh' marketing and promotional strategy

Re: La Fresh needs some fresh ideas

As you know (though it is always worth repeating) Wright Brand Foods, Inc., is the largest supplier of bacon and ham to the American Southwest. Wright Brand Foods is thus a dominating force in the famous Tyson Food Empire. Yet it is currently at a crossroads, regarding its 'La Fresh' marketing Strategy. Currently, the La Fresh brand is not performing as well as competitor products in the health and freshness food industry. The essential problem is that the brand's product proposition and unique selling proposition is no longer so unique in today's market. Many companies make claims as to the freshness and health of their product and the health benefits that consumers can incur from using these products.

It allows them to retain their local following while casting a wider net to capture a bigger….

Music Videos Promotional Devices or Products in Themselves
Music Videos: Promotional Device or Separate Product?

Music videos are constructed in many different ways, but many of them involve the artist and others singing and dancing to specific songs. Some also tell stories or provide other background dealings that make the music video much like a television program. An example of this would be Michael Jackson's 'Thriller,' which was a very long video that involved much storytelling and other information as opposed to just the song. Some of these story type videos are still done today but this seems to be more popular in country music that it does in rock-and-roll.

No matter what genre is dealt with, however, the debate as to whether music videos are promotional devices or a separate product in and of themselves has been continuing for many years. In 1981 music television first began broadcasting music videos 24….
