PRESENTED BY-SAURABH CHANDRA SRIVASTAVAVINAY BIHARI
INTRODUCTION
Businesses need to find a way to grow their businesses, build their brands and increase brand awareness, while abiding by corporate guidelines and practices.
Using an integrated marketing communication strategy is a great way for a brand to specifically focus on local customers and operate under the greater umbrella of the corporate parent.
This approach offers: A holistic approach to communications marketing.
More “bang for your buck,” by creating a user experience.
Integrated marketing communications plans increase the chance that consumers will reach you the way you want them to (more control).
TODAY’S TREND
Mobile Devices Smart phone use is on the rise. Smart phones are quickly becoming a more important tool to use to
connect and engage with customers. Consumers are also using mobile apps to order food, find nearby
restaurants, add value to prepaid cards (i.e. Starbucks), and/or discover the “flavor of the day.”
Restaurant reservation platform OpenTable today reported quarterly earnings of $52.3 million and used the day to put out some other news: the company has acquired Ness Computing, makers of the personalized restaurant recommendations app Ness.
Geo location Customers are using technology and mobile devices to announce location
to social networks (i.e. SCVNGR, Facebook Places, Foursquare, Gowalla).
Businesses are capitalizing on this by linking the “check-ins” to coupons and deal savings, encouraging fans to announce their locations, and ultimately, become customers.
Group Buying
Group buying sites, such as Groupon, have changed consumer buying behavior, by forcing consumers to cooperate in order to receive the discount.
Group buying allows for companies to drive purchase behavior and expand their customer bases. Participating businesses have experienced increased traffic as a result of flash sales, especially when linked with product reviews.
Barcode Scanning Mobile devices allow the consumer the opportunity to scan bar codes
(QR codes) to get product reviews, complementary offerings, compare prices across distributors and track product availability.
Businesses can use this knowledge to communicate transparency regarding price, product and service quality.
INTEGRATED MARKETING:RESOURCES

remember to keep in mind the following: Campaign goal(s) must be communicated, and understood throughout
the company and across departments in order to be successful. Actively work to keep communications cohesive and consistent; use
