FROM ADVERTISING
TO
BRAND ACTIVATION
Power to people
• People have more choice than ever.
• They can get the products anywhere and can compare products
and services down to the minute details.
• This requires a more intelligent manner of communication by
companies.
• Simply advertising can be used to defend a market position in
many cases, however, this creates no leeway for growth. And
that is the aim after all.
So
What
Is
The
NEXT
ALTERNATIVE

THE
HAVEN

ACTIVATING
to be continue……………………
Relevance
• Informing becomes communicating as soon as the message is
relevant to the recipient. On account of the complete
irrelevance of many advertisements, the Dutch people claim
that they are more annoyed about advertising than pointless
violence.
Experiences
• Experiences are convincing. Also the experiences of others.
Active reference on account of a positive experience with the
brand is the most powerful instrument to activate people.
Brand activation Programme: Smart Diamond
• The creative platform or The Big Idea is the
basis of a BA programme. This idea is coupled
to an activity or activities that confirm the
message. Media is used to create awareness of
these activities. Interaction with the target
group is stimulated via media like e-mail and
internet. The sole aim here is: to stimulate:
interest, trial, loyalty. Each programme shall
be primarily based on one of these target
groups
Brand activation = Interaction
• New media has caused a revolution in communication: the
simplicity of interaction. Almost everyone has access to
internet. Stimulate people to interact. A Brand Activation
platform often has a site at the basis. The consumer accesses
the site of his/her own accord and therefore wants contact. A
wonderful opportunity to offer an experience that influences
the buying process
