The obvious payoff is an enhanced experiential, virtual reality of the opera’s stage. The new technologies blur the lines between the opera’s stage and the motion picture common in ...

Throughout the years media and the way it is broadcasted has evolved to meet changing audience preferences as they shifted.

Chapter 4
The BCOS factors are comprehensive, but I think they encourage paternalistic thinking on the part of the marketers, which may alienate the audience. The audience’s perception of the costs, benefits, others and self-efficacy potential varies according to highly personal factors that often come into play at the market segmentation/product positioning/targeting stages (e.g. socialization, culture, and values). Effectively, I believe more concern for cognitive/affective dimensions of how the audience conceptualizes the BCOS factors for greater effectiveness in creating “mutually beneficial want-satisfying products”. I recently read about the Chinese dog meat festival, which has cultural and other ...

Cadbury Strategic Ambiguity

In 2009, Cadbury introduced a new advertisement where two school children made their eyebrows move to music.

The play on anonymity is the ultimate of the advertisement and makes the audience watch the whole ad for its creativity. The audience keeps guessing the reason for the ...

The lure of missing on an opportunity can be the motivation behind poor examination of contractual facts.
