Reference no: EM132134597 , Length: 70

In this assessment students are required to submit a written assignment and deliver an oral presentation relating to Integrated Marketing Communications. Students will apply skills and knowledge to propose an IMC campaign plan (excluding television).

Each group of two students, is to select an Australian small to medium sized organisation. This may be an employer or family business and should be a business with which you are familiar. Your lecturer can provide access to businesses.

Your task is to propose an IMC plan for the business, excluding television as a media class.

IN THE WRITTEN REPORT YOU SHOULD:

1. Construct an overview of your selected company and identify your target audience for the IMC campaign: A brief summary of the business should be detailed. Target audience should be profiled as summarised in Session 1.1, material on Moodle and drawing on your previous market segmentation/ targeting knowledge.

2. Develop objectives and budget for your IMC campaign applying the theory of the unit: Session 3.2

3. Select at least four (4) IMC elements or three (3) elements including two (2) media classes (as summarised in Session 1.1 and Figure 1.3 of the text) excluding television for inclusion in your campaign. Outline the rationale supporting your selection with respect to recent IMC trends (session 3.2).

4. Determine an appropriate creative strategy consistent with IMC theory (Session 4.1)

5. Produce a creative integrated marketing communications campaign (minimum four elements or three elements including two media classes) in the following formats:
Advertising - Newspaper/Magazine: mock up (Session 5.2)
Advertising - Out of Home: mock up (Session 5.2)
Advertising - Radio: script including identification of sound effects (Session 6.1) Direct Marketing: mock-up supported by overview of campaign (Session 2.1) Digital and Social Media: storyboard if video (or actual video); mock up if static (Session 5.1)
Marketing Public Relations: full press/product release or newsletter (not included in word count) (Session 3.1)

Point of Purchase: mock-up supported by overview of campaign (Session 5.2) Sales Promotion: mock-up supported by overview of campaign (Session 2.2) Sponsorship: full overview of campaign (Session 3.1) and mock-up of signage (where relevant)

6. Develop an IMC schedule: in correct format including the element, vehicle (if advertising), timing and cost. This schedule should equate to the budget detailed above in (2). Please consult your Lecturer for costs of IMC elements not discussed within the unit i.e. personal selling. Example of correctly formatted IMC schedule is available on page 8.

7. Detail each student's contribution to the assessment: This requires an agreed identification by area of each member's input. Individual assignments will automatically receive a zero grade against this criteria. (This is not included in the word count or oral presentation).

This will demonstrate your ability to apply the important concepts, processes and models in this unit to development of integrated marketing communications plans and campaigns.

You must include:
- Research using at least 2 academic journal articles
- Carefully select appropriate theories and concepts
- Construct an in-depth and analytical discussion
