Incorporate concepts and examples from this week’s lecture.
The power of social media and its influence in the integrated marketing communications strategy cannot be overlooked (Ogden & Ogden, 2014). Does this mean we should abandon the more traditional tactics and venues of the IMC? No; of course not. It depends upon the targeted market segment. For instance, if the organization is targeting older consumers, the traditional methods such as television and/or radio may still be effective for reaching this group of consumers. If, however, the organization is targeting tech savvy Baby Boomers, Generations X, Y, & the Millennials, then using social media is a must. People want to know what their colleagues and peers are thinking. If you were thinking about purchasing a specific model of auto, for example, are you more likely to believe the postings of your peers or the advertising claims of the organization?
