MKTG 6101 Week 4 Post 1 Guerilla Marketing

By: Freddy Garcia 5/27/2022

          This week’s post on the Google ads training certificate program reminding me very much of one of my readings this past week Chapter Five of Guerilla Marketing. I did not complete the program but did look through it and will go back and complete it once I have finished with this class. Learning the foundations of pay per click ads I think could really help me understand if it is worth it for my business to use this form of advertising. I had spoken with the sales group at Google, and they had pitched this platform before, and I did not use it and instead used a Facebook and YouTube boost campaign. Neither campaign was very effective so I will revisit the pay per click method again.

          The reason I was reminding of the readings when looking into Google ads is that it is super important to have a marketing strategy in place before creating the ad. By creating a plan first, you can then determine what type of creative marketing strategy can work. Chapter Five discusses creating a marketing plan first using seven steps. The first step is to identify the inherent drama with your offering. Next you need to be able to translate the inherent dram into a meaningful benefit. Then you should be able to state your benefits in as believable a way possible. Make sure to create an add that gets people’s attention. The add should then motivate your audience to get involved and take action. It is important to make sure you are communicating clearly with the add. Lastly the final step is measuring your finished advertisement, commercial, letter, Web site and brochure against your creative strategy.
