Without this essential part of the process there is no other need for the three remaining P’s.

...What is an Advertising Appeal? An advertising appeal refers to the approach used to attract the attention of consumers and/or to influence their feelings toward the product, service, or cause. It's something that moves people, speaks to their wants or need, and excites their interest. Often it is the underlying content of the advertisement; think of it as a “movie script”. Don’t confuse this with executional framework, that will be another topic. When y'all are deciding on a direction for your submissions, review the Creative Brief (specifically objectives section) for tone, the nature of the product, the preferences of the client (very important). Most importantly though, use your common sense and gut feelings. There are two major types of appeals. They are: Emotional Rational Emotional Appeal 67advertising messages, usually based on imagery rather than information, which attempt to achieve the advertiser's objectives by evoking strong emotionsl feelings (fear, anger, passion, etc) rather than by a rational appeal. This relates to the customers’ social and/or psychological needs for purchasing a product or service. This appeal is so effective because many consumers’ motives for purchase decisions are emotional. Many advertisers believe an emotional appeal to work better at selling brands that do not differ markedly from competing brands.

Our team however, is not just concerned with homeless people and families, but also their pets and the millions of other homeless animals in America. This event will drive awareness of organizations dedicated to combating the problem of homelessness in America. Though Washington, D.C has vowed to end homelessness mainly for veterans, we desire to aid everyone through groups like The National Student Campaign Against Hunger and Homelessness, the National Alliance to end Homelessness, the National Coalition for the Homeless, Pets of the Homeless, Homeless Pets Foundation, The Humane Society of the United States, and Habitat for Humanity. We will call on local restaurants to supply meals, home improvements stores for materials and “fix-it” expos, health and social services for medical and mental healthcare needs, and other agencies who can provide housing, clothing, food, jobs, and emergency aid. We will need transportation and security to assist with participants. We desire to change the mindset of a nation that has turned its back on basic humanity towards others. With this project, we hope to elicit new assets, services, much needed funding and overall awareness to help end homelessness in America. Around the holidays people seem more mindful of those in need. This attitude is appreciated, however, we need people to remember that homelessness is a year round...

...Strategic Management Process Paper Amy M Petersen MGT/498 September 9, 2013 Paul Kramer Strategic Management Process Paper The primary components of the strategic management process are "goal-setting, analysis, strategy formation, strategy implementation and strategy monitoring" (Clayton, 2012, p. 1). Setting these guidelines and following them is only the beginning. Determining what the company's mission and purpose is will help to determine what steps are the best to take to achieve these intended goals. Understanding the vision of the company and what the short-term and long-term goals are will help to understand what additional steps are needed for the organization to achieve these goals. How will these objectives be implemented and involve everyone in the organization to achieve these goals? Are these goals "realistic and match the values of your vision" (Clayton, 2012, p. 1)? Is the company mission clear about how these goals will be implemented and what part every employee must complete to achieve these goals? One thing is for sure whatever the goals set and determined are, these ideas need to be clearly written and identified to all intended parties so that everyone is on board and working towards the same desired outcome. Another point that needs to be mentioned is that this is not a short-term phase, but something that needs to be implemented for the long haul. "Strategic management is a change process, something that is going to take time to develop, cultivate...

Today, Forbes lists Apple as #1 Most Powerful Brand, #15 of Global 2000 and #79 of World’s Most Innovative Company. Apple took their failures in design, management and production, studied them and turned them into triumphs. Overall, Apple has been a successful company that shows us the strength of endurance. In 2012 Apple with their newly released iPhone reported that their net income for the fiscal year was $41 billion and over $50 billion in operating cash. Their competitors Microsoft and Samsung were close but still did not overcome the branding that Apple has implanted so strongly into our lives.
