FAQs

What are the "Five M's" of advertising and how do they work with the "P's" of marketing?

The Five M's of advertising are: Media, Measurement, Message, Mission, and Money. These M's are crucial for building a successful business and brand.

They work in conjunction with the traditional "P's" of marketing (Product, Price, Place, Promotion, and sometimes People, Process, Physical Evidence). While the P's define your marketing strategy, the M's provide a framework for executing effective advertising.

Favour emphasizes the importance of aligning these two frameworks, asking "how do you get these two to work together hand in hand?" Essentially, the "P's" help define what you're offering and how you're positioning it, while the "M's" guide how you effectively communicate and monetize that offering through advertising.

Why is having a "Message" that resonates with your audience so important in advertising, and how does timing play a role?

The "Message" is highlighted as a core element. It's not just about having a product, but about sending a message that truly resonates with the target audience at the right time.

An effective message helps solve a problem for the audience. The speaker uses the analogy of offering a jacket when someone is looking for a tank top – it's the right message at the wrong time, making it ineffective.

How does "Media" function as the "currency" of advertising, and what are some examples?

"Media" is described as the "red carpet" of advertising and the "currency of your advertising." Without media, you cannot run ads. This refers to the various platforms and file types through which your advertising content is delivered.

Examples include social media platforms (Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Instagram), billboards, TV, radio, and even older formats like newspapers and magazines.

Regardless of the platform or era, the content (video, audio, text, image) needs to be uploaded as a "media file" (MP3, MP4, MOV, PNG, JPEG, TXT). The compelling nature of this media (whether it's "catchy" or "hooking") directly impacts its effectiveness in engaging an audience.
