Do You Fully Understand the Art of Engagement Marketing?
An example of EM are blogs because they are unlike
traditional marketing, however they have the exact same goal.
EM is a paradigm shift in reaching the market and has come
from the consumer being more empowered. Chandar
Pattabhiram suggests that technology advances have given
the consumer access to pre-purchase information and form an
opinion, especially before interacting with the actual business.
This then leads the business to be more personal with the
consumer, to then a stronger influence, next to the purchase
which makes that business more favourable and decreases
competition. Engagement Marketing is more personal and
deeper to the consumer.
What Colour is your Ad?
Psychological factor shows the ‘isolation effect’ on consumers proves
they like things that stand out. Men like bright colours, such as red, and
woman prefer softer colours, such as purple and pink. Colours are
recognised and processed from very early on and this helps with colour
marketing. Colours have perennial connotations, for example yellow
means happy, and therefore using these to their correct meaning can
have a positive effect for their marketing. Blue is the best neutral colour
to use, men resulted a 57% and woman 35%. This is because it is
neutrally used, such as the sky.

• The terms and condition are awful, an example is that they are allowed to message people from your account without you knowing

• It takes up a large amount of memory
• The keyboard is inconvenient as it is easy to accidentally send stickers
