Editor's Notes
Note to Instructor Discussion Question What sales promotions have you seen in the last two months? They will often mention similar coupon books, fast food contests, and demonstrations in stores.
Note to Instructor This link is to McDonalds Web page for press releases. Before clicking you might ask the students what kind of information McDonalds might issue press releases about. You can then see the press releases which talk about finances, marketing strategies, and organizational issues.
Note to Instructor This Web link is to boston.coma regional news Web site. This site usually has extensive banner advertising and sponsorships. A good question to ask students is Why is this considered direct marketing. Tell them that it is targeted, expects an immediate response, and is measurable.
Sender is the party sending the message to another party. Encoding is the process of putting thought into symbolic form. Message is the set of symbols the sender transmits. Media is the communications channels through which the message moves from sender to receiver. Decoding is the process by which the receiver assigns meaning to the symbols. Receiver is the party receiving the message sent by another party. Response is the reaction of the receiver after being exposed to the message. Feedback is the part of the receivers response communicated back to the sender Noise is the unplanned static or distortion during the communication process, which results in the receivers getting a different message than the one the sender sent.
