# Promotional Mix

Business: Edexcel GCSE, topic 2.2.10

## Promotional Mix

Promotional mix is the combination of different promotional methods that a business uses. For example, a firm might advertise largely through TV, but also do some social media advertising and have sponsorship deals in place with athletes. Factors influencing the promotional mix are:

### Finance available

![Finance available](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-03/4efdf9a8-cb81-466a-94da-519f69250bbc/shutterstock_552445588.jpg)

- Some firms will have much more finance (money) available to spend on promotions. 
- Some promotional methods (e.g. TV advertising) are more expensive than others. 
- Smaller firms with less finance are less likely to be able to afford TV advertising.

### Competitor actions

- The promotional mix of competitors might influence a business because they may want to reach consumers using the same channel as rivals.

### The nature of the product or service

![The nature of the product or service](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-03/f1b82fbe-733f-44c5-9934-49b4b4719345/shutterstock_434814523.jpg)

- The type of product (or service) will influence which promotional method needs to be used. 
- A technical product like a laptop may want to give consumers more information about their product, whilst a simple product like orange juice (Tropicana juice for example) may not need to give info. 
- A fashion label like Hugo Boss does not have much information to communicate. How their products look is more important.

### The nature of the market

![The nature of the market](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-03/81965b74-73a1-448c-ac91-7b2733bb1bb6/shutterstock_463640222.jpg)

- As a market matures, the rate of growth changes. 
 - If a market is growing slowly, advertising may be less important. 
 - If a market is growing fast, then firms will be battling for market share and are willing to spend more on advertising as it will affect sales by a larger amount.

### Target market

![Target market](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-03/39c95476-b8ce-46dc-8666-dd3f4f682070/shutterstock_100105385.jpg)

- A firm’s target market for a product (or service) will affect the promotional method that they use because different types of people use different platforms more often. 
- A business wants to promote its product to its potential customers. 
- A firm that produces women’s underwear will not usually want to promote their product to middle aged men.

## Reasons for Promotion

There are 4 main reasons why businesses use promotion:

### To inform/remind customers about the product

![To inform/remind customers about the product](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-03/41099523-355a-4d62-a2d1-05d88a4d953f/shutterstock_297372143.jpg)

- A business cannot sell a product (or service) if no consumers know about it. 
- Businesses must be able to inform their target market about their product (or service) and remind people, at the right time, in the hope that they will buy it. 
- Reminding customers at the right time is key. There is not much point in promoting Christmas baubles on the 26th December.

### To create or increase sales

![To create or increase sales](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-03/c376c0b1-0c08-4db9-8504-58c9150c72ff/shutterstock_245440294.jpg)

- Informing consumers that are not aware of a business’ products can ‘create’ new sales. 
- By constantly reminding existing customers about a product (or service) and its benefits, businesses can increase the sales from each customer. 
- This is more likely to happen during the periods before short “sales windows” like Easter and Christmas.

### To create or change the image of a product (or service)

- A promotion can have a large impact on how customers see a product. If a celebrity uses the product, a business can give the product a fun, luxury or innovative image.
- UnderArmour sponsored golfers like Jordan Spieth to create a youthful and cool image after they launched their golf and sporting wear ranges. 
- A promotion can help to change customers’ perception of a product.

### To persuade customers to buy the product

- Promotions are often used to advertise the benefits of using a product and to explain why you should buy it. 
- These are attempts to persuade the customer that this is the best product for them.

## Test yourself on Promotional Mix

- What are the factors influencing the promotional mix?
- Which product requires a large amount of information to be given to consumers in promotion?
