Executive Synopsis

In 1980, Mudra started with a modest turnover of Rs.30 lakh in the first
year of operation. The first few years indicated a placid growth rate of
25%. From 1985 onwards, turnover accelerated at a furious pace.
This led to Mudra becoming the third largest agency in the country in a
short span of 9 years. Currently Mudra's turnover is in excess of Rs. 7
billion and the company continues to maintain a healthy growth rate.

The project report basically deals with the evaluation of the Rasna
Shake Up T V Commercial. The evaluation is done on the basis of its
effectiveness in terms of
 Sales
 Emotional grounds

I have used the interrogation/communications study where the


researcher questions the by personal means. I have used two main
sources of data:
 Primary Source: in the form of questionnaires.
 Secondary Source: books, Internet, articles from newspapers,
magazines.

Our population consists of all the kids in the age group of 4-12 years.
And moms in the city of Ahmedabad, out of which the relevant
population will be those in SEC A, B, C. The sample size is taken 100
each-kids and moms.

The advertisement is successful in terms of sales of the product –


Rasna Shake Up. But it is more successful in terms of emotional
grounds. This is because of the baseline “Don’t B Seedha Sada”.
It is very popular among kids.
Today’s kids want themselves to different from the lot. Unlike earlier
days, they don’t want to be called Seedha Sada. And the agency,
understanding the kids’ mindset very well have selected this baseline
and very well targeted its audience.
The advertisement does not touch upon the nutritional attributes, but
mainly focuses on fun filled attributes in drinking milk.

ADVERTISING

“The cat sat on the mat” is not a


story. “The cat sat on
the dog’s mat,” now that’s a
story.
- Gerry Miller, creative
director, Dentsu.

Chapter 2: Advertising

Introduction:

Advertising is any paid form of nonpersonel presentation and


promotion of ideas, goods, or services by an identified sponsor.
Advertisers include not only business firms, but also museums,
charitable organizations, and government agencies that direct
messages to target publics. Ads are a cost-effective way to
disseminate messages, whether to build brand preference for Coca-
Cola or to educate people to avoid hard drugs.

Advertising is both art and science. The science of advertising is the


analytical part: setting goals, deciding strategy, choosing among
different creative styles. Some people call this step convergent
thinking because the process is to distill lots of information into the
core advertising strategy. But once the message strategy and the
broad creative approach have been determined, it is time to create the
actual advertising. And, this is a very different process. Here the best
approach is divergent thinking – letting loose with one’s imagination to
find the most creative, unexpected way to communicate that core
advertising message. This is not science but art.

Advertising Classifications:

 Product Advertising:
Most of the advertising expenditure is spent on product
advertising, i.e. advertising of new products, existing products
and revised products.

 Retail Advertising:
In contrast to product advertising, retail advertising is local and
focuses on the store where a variety of products can be
purchased or where a service is offered. Retail advertising
emphasizes price, availability, location, and hours of operation.

 Corporate advertising:
The focus of these advertisements is on establishing a corporate
identity or on winning the public over to he organization’s point
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

of view. Most corporate advertising is designed to create a


favorable image for a company and its products; however, image
advertising specifically denotes a corporate campaign that
highlights the superiority or desirable characteristics of the
sponsoring corporation.

 Business – to – business advertising:


This term relates to advertising that is directed to industrial
users (tires advertised to automobile manufacturers), resellers
(wholesalers and retailers), and professionals (such as lawyers
and accountants).

 Political Advertising:
Politicians to persuade people to vote for them often use political
advertising; therefore, it is an important part of the political
process.

 Directory Advertising:
People refer to directory advertising to find out how to buy a
product or service. The best known for of directory advertising is
the Yellow Pages, although today there are many different kinds
of directories that perform the same function.

 Direct Response Advertising:


Direct response advertising involves two-way communication
between the advertiser and the consumer. It can use any
advertising medium and the consumer can respond, often by
mail, telephone, or fax. More and more companies now allow the
consumer to respond online. The product is usually delivered to
the consumer by mail.

 Public Service Advertising:


Public service advertising is designed to operate in the public’s
interest and to promote public welfare. These advertisement are
created free of charge by the advertising professionals, and the
space and time are donated by the media.

The advertising objectives can be classified according to whether their


aim is to inform, persuade, remind, or reinforce.
 Informative advertising aims to create awareness and knowledge
of new products.
 Persuasive advertising aims to create liking, preference,
conviction, and purhase of a product or service.
 Reminder advertising aims to stimulate repeat purchase of
products and services.
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

 Reinforcement advertising aims to convince current purchasers


that they made the right choice.

Five major decisions or five Ms of advertising:

Mission: set advertising objectives.


Money: Establish a budget that takes into account stage in
product life cycle, market share and consumer base, competition
and clutter, advertising frequency, and product substitutability.
Message: Choose the advertising message, determine how the
message will be generated, evaluate alternative messages for
desirability, exclusiveness, and believability; and execute the
message with the most appropriate style, tone, words, and
format and in a socially responsible manner.
Media: Decide on the media by establishing the ad’s desired
reach, frequency, and impact and then choosing the media that
will deliver the desired results in terms of circulation, audience
and effective ad – exposed audience.
Measurement: Evaluate the communication and sales effects of
advertising.

Advertising Institutions:
There are four major advertising institutions namely: the advertiser,
the advertising agency, the media, and the research suppliers.

There are a wide variety of advertisers. Those who are classified as


national advertisers spend the largest share of advertising dollars. The
product type with which they are involved can also distinguish
advertisers: consumer packaged goods, consumer durables, retail
stores, or industrial products, for example.

In most cases, an advertising agency actually creates the


advertisements and makes the media-allocation decisions.

Media developments have dramatically influenced the thrust of


advertising through the years. The printing press made possible
newspapers and magazines, the major media before the advent of the
broadcast media, television and radio. Radio in 1922 and television ion
1948 provided a new dimension to advertising and sparked a period of
growth.
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

Modern advertising management is heavily involved with research, and


a sizable industry of research supplier firms has grown up to serve
the needs of advertisers, agencies, and the media. Today, over $1
billion is spent annually on marketing and advertising research and
specialized services associated with each of the major media.

EVALUATION

- David Ogilvy

Chapter 3: Advertisement Evaluation

Introduction:

Trying to find out


Advertising can take up a lot of time, effort and money. It is an
expensive and serious process. Behind the campaign lies the need to
justify it before it begins and to justify it after it has appeared.
It is not sufficient to do advertising. For a professional and effective
result, it is necessary also to evaluate it. Did it work? And how did it
work? Were its objectives fulfilled? To what extent? And now what
remains to be done?

What to find out


The advertiser or the agency has to do two things:
1. carry out a plan of action
2. discover what happened.

There is a range of pressing reasons why the advertiser must find


out. Among these are:
 The need to assess how far the objectives have been reached.
 The need to justify to management. For self protection or for
professional clarity, the advertiser would be wise to show to
management how well that money has been spent and what it
has accomplished.
 To learn for next time. What went right this time? What
could have worked better? What needs to be done for next time?

Advertising agencies, in particular, are under some pressure to


perform well and to show how well they have performed. Evaluation is
a kind of self-protection as well as being another act of professional
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

accountability. It is, of course, crucial to determine what to evaluate.


Light will need to be thrown on to a number of issues.

Campaign objectives
How far were these met? If they were to build up awareness, what is
the awareness now?

Creative effectiveness
Just how well did the creative vehicle work? Did the audience like it,
remember it, respond to it? What was the central theme of the creative
approach and did it shift audience to the product? Was the creative
offer understood and accepted.

Effect on the audience


What did the audience think before and what do they think now? What
do they know and feel about the product that they did not know
before?

Problem solving
If the campaign set out to overcome a problem, how well did it do so?
What was the problem before and how far does it now exist? What
elements of the problem still remain to be dealt with?

What needs to be found out has to be defined as thoroughly and as


fully as any other part of the advertising equation.

What research

Advertising research covers a wide span of types. The strategy here is


to fit the research type to the problem posed. Research is carried out
on a need-to-know basis. So, what do we need to know? Characteristic
areas of doubt include the following:

 The creative strategy: does it match customer requirements?


 The creative concept: does the audience accept it and find it
valid?
 The creative communication or vehicle: does the audience
understand it?
 Awareness: does the campaign enhance audience awareness?
 Recall: is there clear recall of the product name, or specification,
or indeed of the advertising itself?
 Campaign effect: what does the campaign achieve overall?
 Positives and negatives: are there any negatives that can now be
eliminated, or positives that can be enhanced?
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

There are two main ways to categorise research methods:

1. By time
2. By type

Research by time:
Advertising research is done at two life stages of an advertisement –
before its birth and after its birth. An advertisement is born when it is
put on air for the first time. Before that, it is in its pre - birth stage.

Research by type:
As is famously known, research is divided into two major categories:

1. Quantitative
2. Qualitative

The former deals in numbers, in scale, in percentages, typically using a


large sample to produce simple replies to a standard questionnaire,
which are then percentaged out. The latter probes smaller groups, in a
less structured, more open way.

The advertisement research process:

Advertising research involves evaluating advertisement at its different


life stages. In all contexts, the effect of /response to advertisement
needs to be ascertained. The same could be either effect on sales
and/or on the minds.
Well, most advertisement (but for social and public service
advertisement, like Family Planning, AIDS, Census, Gujarat earthquake
relief, and Orissa cyclone relief advertisements) is intended to
increase, or maintain, sales in some form. Some of these forms are
listed below.
 A very wide range, from the frequent and trivial purchase cycle
to the rare and expensive, even a one-off, purchase, which
requires a serious decision.
 Changing or maintaining an attitude or habit, to provide a
context in which a desired behavior is more likely to take place.
 Long-term and short-term effects.
 Sales-price relationship; i.e., more value at a price, or same
volume at more price.

Before getting into the evaluation process, a brief discussion on issues


affecting the evaluation of advertisement follows.
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

Issue 1: the customer-brand relationship, and its impact on


advertisement.
Two points in this context are:
 The relationship between the brand and the consumer directly
impacts on the way advertisement is received by the customer.
The stronger the relationship, the more noticeable is the
advertisement, and the more likelihood of the advertisement
being viewed in a positive light. (some examples are the Liril and
Pepsi advertisements.)
 The relationship is circular rather than linear. Customers aware
of the advertisement are more likely to buy the brand, and those
customers who are buying the brand are more likely to be aware
of the advertisement. (Some examples are Surf and Sundrop.)

Issue 2: Short- and Long-term effects.


A few observations in this context are:
Accountability usually creates a tendency to give a choice between
immediate, short-term effects over longer-term, less-measurable
effects.
 Consumer offer-based effects are short-term.
 Short-term results are perceived as marketing success. But such
success often does not last.

Evaluating advertising effectiveness:

Principles of effective advertising:


To be effective means creating an ad that accomplishes the objectives
desired by clients. The task of making sure the ad meets the objectives
requires that creatives and account executives follow the six basic
principles as stated below.

♦ Visual consistency
♦ Campaign duration
♦ Repeated tag lines
♦ Consistent positioning
♦ Simplicity
♦ Identifiable selling
point

Good planning and control of advertising depend on measures of


advertising effectiveness. Yet the amount of fundamental research on
effectiveness is appallingly small. Most advertisers try to measure the
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

communication effect of an ad-that is, its potential effect on


awareness, knowledge, or preference. They would also like to measure
the ad’s sales effect.

Communication – Effect Research:

Communication-effect research seeks to determine whether an ad


is communicating effectively. Called copy testing, it can be done
before an ad is put into media and after it is printed or broadcast.
Advertising research is done at two life stages of an advertisement –
before its birth and after its birth. An advertisement is born when it is
put on air for the first time. Before that, it is in its pre - birth stage.

Put on air first


Time

Before
After
Birth birth

There are three major methods of advertising pretesting.


 The consumer feedback method asks consumers for their
reactions to a proposed ad.
 Portfolio tests ask consumers to view or listen to a portfolio of
advertisements, taking as much time as they need. Consumers
are then asked to recall all the ads and their content, aided or
unaided by the interviewer. Recall level indicates an ad’s ability
to stand out and to have its message understood and
remembered.
 Laboratory tests use equipment to measure physiological
reactions-heartbeat, blood pressure, pupil dilation, galvanic skin
response, perspiration-to an ad. These tests measure attention –
getting power but reveal nothing about impact on beliefs,
attitudes, or intentions.

Sales - Effect Research:

Sales are influenced by many factors, such as the product’s features,


price, and availability, as well as competitor’s actions. The fewer or
more controllable these factors are, the easier it is to measure effect
on sales. Companies are generally interested in finding out whether
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

they are over spending or under spending on advertising. Where as


advertising agencies are generally interested in finding out and
informing the advertisers about how well their creativity has worked.

A growing number of researchers are striving to measure the sales


effect of advertising expenditures instead of settling for
communication – effect measures.

RASNA
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

“For an advertisement to be
effective it must be noticed, read,
comprehended, believed, and
acted upon.”

“Think of an ad not as what you


put into it, but as what the
consumer takes out of it.”
- Rosser Reeves, in Reality in
Advertising.

Chapter 5 : Market Research

Research Objectives:

Primary objective:
The primary objective of the research is to evaluate the Rasna
Shake Up advertisement in terms of its effectiveness and find out
the reasons for the same. Effectiveness can be measured on two
basis:
 Sales
 Emotional grounds

Secondary objective:
While studying the primary objective I also studied the overall
working of an ad agency.

Project Planning
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

Before starting the research work, the whole project was first planned
out. For this planning I took into consideration duration of the project,
time required to do each activity, objective of the study and
importance of all the activities.

The whole project is divided into three stages:

1. Project planning (includes questionnaire preparation)

2. Data collection

3. Data analysis and report making

Total duration of the project was 8 weeks

Limitations:
a) We have to assume that all the respondents have provided
correct information.

b) The survey size is only 100 individuals. From this sample


size we have to assume the results for the whole population.

Chapter 6: Research Methodology

In planning and designing a specific research project, it is necessary to


anticipate all the steps that have to be undertaken to make the project
successful. Our research process consists of following steps:

Formulating the research objective


The first step of any research is to formulate the research objective.
The research objective is defined as “to find the effectiveness of
the Rasna Shake Up advertisement and find out the reasons
for the same.”

Sampling Design

I will be using a probability sampling method where in the concept of


random selection, a controlled procedure that assures that each
population element is given a known non-zero chance of selection.
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

Sampling Design Steps:

• Relevant population out of Universe:

Our population consists of all the kids in the age group of 4-12 years. And moms in
the city of Ahmedabad, out of which the relevant population will be those in SEC A,
B, C.

• Element of Population:

Our element of population will be an individual kid in the age


group of 4-12 years and mom below the age of 45.

• Sample size

The calculation of the sample size proceeds as under:-

For 95% Confidence level, z=1.96.


o Desired interval range within which the population proportion is
expected=± 0.1
o 1.96σ=90% confidence level for estimating the interval within
which to expect the population proportion

From a pilot survey of 5 respondents each for kids and moms, it was
found that 60% percent of the aware population purchased Rasna
Shake Up.

So, p = 0.60 & q = 1-p = 0.40

So, pq = 0.24

= measure of the sample dispersion.

Standard error σp = 0.1/1.96 = 0.051

σp = √(pq/n)

n = 92

Therefore, approx. sample size was taken as 100 each for kids and
moms.

Research Design:

• Degree of Research Question Crystallization:


This is a formal study which starts with a hypothesis and

KYA AAP RETRO KARTE HAIN…

ANALYSIS
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

Idea of instant milk-shake:

Benjamin Franklin, bothered by the need for two pairs of spectacles,


one for distance and one for things nearby, came up with the idea for
bifocals.

Successful concepts are not complicated. They are relevant and easy
to understand. The best advertising ideas are frequently marketing
ideas that are built into products. The first and most comforting
principle – creativity doesn’t create something out of nothing. It
uncovers, selects, reshuffles, combines, synthesizes already existing
facts, skills and ideas. That’s what Arthur Koestler, in his landmark
book The Act of Creation, calls ‘bisociation’, a fancy word for putting
existing ideas together to create something ‘original’-like making an
instant milk shake.

The Retro feel:

Conventional wisdom has always held that people buy products


because they believe them to be nutritious, or labor saving, or good
value for money. But research says humour sells as efficiently as other
technique. And retro adds humor to the advertisement.
It is over half a century since Kundanlal Saigal, Hindi film’s first
superstar singer, passed away, but his haunting, resonant voice
continues to enthrall listeners on early morning radio or, if you have
been watching the telly lately, in the nasal twang urging viewers to
drink milk shake.
The use of the retro look and feel in advertising technique is being
adopted as a mechanism to break clutter and create high recall. The
retro feel is something mass audiences can relate and respond to.
Aaj Tak claims that the retro ads have given the channel top of mind
awareness.

Our Rasna Shake Up advertisement has a combined look of retro as


well as modernization where today’s kid wants to look hep and
happening and that’s what the Baseline suggests ‘ Don’t B Seedha
Saada’.

Music Equity: The Power of Music

Music is a powerful medium that can bring the emotional qualities of


products and services to life and help activate a Brand promise. The
beat of the music can literally connect with the heartbeat of the
consumer.
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

In recent years, consumer purchase decisions have become more


weighted towards emotional attributes rather than functional benefits.
The true marketing potential of music is that without any other
stimulus, it can access a mood, emotion, and deeply move specific
demographics within a target market in just a few seconds. In addition,
the heritage of music, through the artist, genre, etc., can reflect a
culture, a time period and lifestyle without even playing a note!

Some of Ogilvy’s tips on successful


advertisement that is implemented on our
advertisement:

1. Brand Identification: When you advertise a new product, you


have to teach people its name on television. And in our
advertisement, the song and the dance teach us about the name
‘Shake Up’.
2. Show the package: Commercials that end by showing the
package are more effective in changing brand preference than
commercials that don’t.
3. Food in motion: In commercials for food, the more appetizing
you make it look, the more you sell. It has been found that food
in motion looks particularly appetizing.
4. Close – ups: Its is a good thing to use close-ups when your
product is th hero of the commercial. The closer you get on the
milk shake, the more you make people’s mouths water.
5. Open with the fire: You have only 30 seconds. If you grab
attention in the first frame with a visual surprise, you stand a
better chance of holding the viewer. Here I want to draw your
attention to the retro feel they have given in the first 5 seconds.
6. When you have nothing to say, sing it: Many people use
music as a background – emotional shorthand. Music is a
powerful medium that can bring the emotional qualities of
products and services to life and help activate a Brand promise.
The beat of the music can literally connect with the heartbeat of
the consumer.
7. Avoid visual banality: If you want the viewer to pay attention
to your commercial, show her something she has never seen
before. You should give your commercials a touch of singularity,
a visual burr that will stick in the viewer’s mind. The most
appreciated aspect in our ad is the change of background,
clothes from black & white to colorful.

CONCLUSION

“An incomplete brief from the


client leads to
a lousy communication”
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

- Prahlad Kakkar

Chapter 8 : Conclusion

Summary and conclusions:

Most advertising is designed to connect a product or a service to a


particular set of feelings—feelings like belonging, love, status, respect,
or power. This approach is most common because exposure to an
individual ad is so brief. A TV commercial may take up fifteen to thirty
seconds of your attention, and a print ad may be seen for only one to
three seconds as you flip by it in a magazine or newspaper. There is no
doubt that persuasive techniques in advertising are effective. They can
raise your level of awareness about a product or issue—or change your
attitude altogether. They can even affect your behavior itself, by
convincing you to take action or to buy a product.

Advertising is everywhere in our society. Since there are so many ads


competing for our attention, advertisers know they have to make a
strong impression quickly. Creators of ads focus on using simple,
easily understood images and slogans to create a dominant
impression.

The research or project mainly focuses on the effect of the Rasna


Shake Up advertisement on its target viewers. Target viewers comprise
of kids of the age group of 4-12 years who usually panic a lot when
asked to drink milk. Our second target viewer comprises of their moms
who puts in a lot of effort to make her child drink milk.

As far as the kid is concerned he is drinking Complan, Bournvita or now


Shake Up, but as far as the mom is concerned she wants her kid to
drink milk in whatever fashion and with whatever additive.

So it boils down to what kid likes and what appeals him the most. This
happens usually with advertising that would appeal kids that are our
main target audience.
Ad Evaluation of Rasna Shake Up TVC

The advertisement mainly focuses to solve these issues of the kid as well as the mom.

The advertisement is evaluated on two grounds:


 Sales effect
 Emotional grounds.

The advertisement is successful in terms of sales of the product –


Rasna Shake Up. But it is more successful in terms of emotional
grounds. This is because of the baseline “Don’t B Seedha Sada”.
It is very popular among kids.
Today’s kids want themselves to different from the lot. Unlike earlier
days, they don’t want to be called Seedha Sada. And the agency,
understanding the kids mindset very well have selected this baseline
and very well targeted its audience.
The advertisement does not touch upon the nutritional attributes, but
mainly focuses on fun filled attributes in drinking milk.

Also, during my survey I’ve come across statements from moms that
clearly showed their relief from forcing their kids to drink milk because
of Rasna Shake Up.
