...Effective Negative Media Advertising in Public Health ‘Negative Advertising’ is an effective way to influence behavioral changes among general public, but it has only been limitedly used in public health media campaigns. Nevertheless, as public health more and more focuses on non-transmissible disease prevention, negative advertising could be more extensively used. This analysis takes into consideration, a descriptive case from tobacco control. Taking into account internal tobacco industry documents, surveys and tentative data and taking into consideration socio-political reasons, it is described tobacco industry and public health research on the American Legacy Foundation’s ‘‘truth’’ campaign, a key example of effective use of negative advertising in the service of public health. The tobacco industry described that the most effective advertisements run by Legacy Foundations “truth’’ campaign have been negative advertisements. Though the tobacco industry’s own study suggested that these negative ads acknowledged and effectively branded the cigarette as a harmful consumer product rather than focusing only on tobacco companies, some people accused Legacy of defaming it. Public health researchers have confirmed the effectiveness of the ‘‘truth’’ campaign in reducing smoking initiation. Research on political advocacy indicating the value of negative advertising has been only used rarely in the development of public health media campaigns, but negative advertising can easily communicate...

Introduction to ingredient branding Every month more than 4 million billion (4 x 1015) transistors are produced; more than half a million for every human on the planet. Most computer chips each comprise more than 7 million transistors. Twelve years ago computer chips, in the eyes of consumers, were a generally unknown component of PCs - a commodity product. From a competitive standpoint, a computer chip is a typical commodity. Take one out, put another in, no performance difference. Chips are something most customers don't see, many don't understand, and large numbers don't care about. But Intel has built a brand around a commodity. The company was founded in 1968 and went public in 1971. By 1997, it controlled 90% of the world's market for personal PC microprocessors. Although the market is more competitive today, Intel is still the largest chip manufacturer in the world. 2. The need for an ingredient brand Intel developed the chips which set the standard for personal computing during the 1980s, beginning with the 8086 chip and then developing a series of product improvements. Competitors rapidly adopted the same naming convention, and Intel's product names...

...Problem Statement In the “Dove: Evolution of a Brand” case, Deighton identified several problems that Unilever faced with Dove's “Real Beauty” campaign. First, Unilever "risked moving the [Dove] brand ... at odds with its heritage" (Deighton, 34). In doing so, they lost the aspirational element, the brand did not promise attractiveness, and they effectively debunked "the whole reason to spend ... more for the product (34). Secondly, to that end, “The Campaign for Real Beauty,” in some circumstances, did not mention a product, and therefore, measuring return on investment in media became difficult (34, 37). Unilever/Dove stood for a point of view, “real beauty,” to unify functionality by presenting an "alternative view of the goal of personal care" (33). However, in doing so, they abdicated "responsibility to manage what was said about the brand" and put their multibillion-dollar asset at risk (31). They risked "putting the 'Real Beauty' story out on media like YouTube, where consumers were free to weigh in with opinion and dissent" (31). Unilever/Dove tried to account for media dissent: resulting parodies; and questions about Unilever's sincerity, objectivity, and motives (36, 38). They attempted to "make sense of the [brand] strategy that was building meaning by courting controversy" (38). They also had a risky strategy of taking up the “cudgels for reality,” where in how to express it was difficult (38). Did honesty "leave women enough freedom to dream" or identify Dove...

...1. Sony is currently pursuing an operations strategy where most of its high-definition TV production is contracted to other firms. By contrast, Samsung is committed to keeping production of its TVs in-house. Why do these firms pursue different operations strategies for basically the same products? Advantages of Sony using the “Buy” (Outsource) strategy: • Allow Sony to concentrate resources on unique applications like movies, video games, and music. • The fastest growth is in low-end televisions sold in developing counties like China; whose production can be more easily outsourced than more sophisticated models. • Outsource partner may be able to manufacture products at cheaper cost. • Flexibility in choosing outsource partner who specializes in product. Sony can match suppliers who can meet market demand. Outsource partner may be an expert or have latest production and manufacturing technologies available. • Sony is losing money, and manufacturing is very capital intensive. Sony can save money and use its resources to fit their strategic organizational objectives. • Offsets: using an outsource supplier may help Sony capture orders or improve business relations with the suppliers home country. Advantages of Samsung using a Make (Produce) strategy: • Samsung leadership believes that giving up manufacturing is tantamount to abandoning your brand. • Samsung can maintain tight control over the value chain, and therefor over quality. • Samsung keeps all the profits...

...lacking corporate identity in its host country. Toyota is experiencing difficulty bridging the gap between its Japanese collectivist culture and the individualist culture of the United States in regards to its marketing strategy. ANALYSIS Toyota’s key challenge is the fact that it is lacking an overall image in the minds of its consumers. Their consumers see them as a product rather than a company. For instance, the CEO has concluded, “no one knows who Toyota is, that it is a faceless organization and doesn’t have a human element in the eyes of the consumer.” This shows that its corporate identity is not currently designed to reflect the company’s leading position in terms of technology and image. Toyota’s second obstacle involves developing this corporate identity without diverting from its Japanese collectivist culture. This culture encourages conformity and group cohesion, while it discourages individually standing out; rather they are more uniform and homogeneous in nature. As such, defining your authentic self and broadcasting it tends to put the Japanese at risk of being separate from, rather than part of the group, which is where the challenge lies. The CEO wants its entire company, the “heroes,” to represent the “face” of the company, not just one single person serving as a representative, as the American individualist culture would. However, the consumers Toyota wants to target in its host country practice individualism, while Toyota is using strategies from its collectivist...
