Marketing Communication Strategy Overview Promotion Strategy: Emphasize that Sunkist has a bold orange flavor that rivals its competitors’ while creating a social scene for teens. Rationale: This strategy is needed to insure our customers’ social needs during their spare time.
Advertising Strategy
Creative Strategy and Execution
Our advertising will help us in achieving our campaigns objectives by reaching our target market, along with other demographics.
Our outdoor ads such as billboards will be featured in top Texas cities such as Dallas, Austin and Houston. Rather than advertising year-
round, we plan to simply advertise heavily during the main seasonal and holiday periods.
Media Strategy
Our media objectives will be to increase reach and frequency of our consumers and in particular our target market. By utilizing television, radio, Facebook photo contest, and YouTube, we will be able to reach the consumer on an almost daily basis. Our media calendar will give more understanding as to when, and how much money, will be focused on which mediums for advertising.
