Instructions:

1. Select a Brand: Choose a brand that interests you. This can be a well-known company or a brand you are familiar with.

2. Review the Brands IMC Program: Your analysis should cover the following areas:

• Social Media Platforms:
• Review the brands social media accounts (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, YouTube).
• Are the messaging and ads consistent across these platforms?
• Does the brand use any influencers? If so, how are they integrated into the brands messaging?
• Website Review:
• Visit the brands official website.
• Evaluate how the websites design, content, and messaging align with what you observed on their social media platforms.
• Traditional Marketing:
• Check if the brand uses traditional marketing methods such as billboards, TV commercials, or print ads.
• Analyze whether these traditional marketing efforts are consistent with their online presence.

3. Evaluate Consistency Across Platforms:

• Consistency: Assess how well the brand maintains a consistent look, tone, and key message across all marketing platforms (social media, website, traditional marketing).
• Effectiveness: Consider how this consistency impacts the brands overall image and customer perception.

Guidelines to help you write your paper:

• Introduction: Introduce the brand you have selected and briefly describe its IMC approach.
• Analysis: Address each of the areas mentioned above. Use specific examples to illustrate your observations. Use clear headings for each section.
• Conclusion: Summarize how effectively the brand integrates its marketing messages across different platforms and the benefits of this approach.
