Alternative Advertising Strategies
Unique Selling Proposition (USP)
Brand Image
Resonance
Emotional
Generic
Preemptive
Alternative Strategies:
Unique Selling Proposition
Definition
Superiority claims based on
unique physical feature or
meaningful benefit
Conditions
Most useful when point of
difference cannot be readily
matched by competitors
Competitive
Implications
May force competitors to imitate
or choose more aggressive
strategy
Alternative Strategies:
Brand Image
Definition
Claims based on psychosocial
differentiation, usually symbolic
association
Conditions
Best for homogeneous good
where differences are difficult to
develop (e.g., cola)
Competitive
Implications
Often involve prestige/identity
claims; rarely challenge
competition directly
Alternative Strategies:
Resonance
Definition
Attempts to evoke stored life
experiences of prospects to
give product relevant
meaning or significance
Conditions
Best for socially visible goods;
requires considerable consumer
understanding to design
messages
Competitive
Implications
Few direct limitations on
competitor’s options; most likely
competitive response is imitation
Alternative Strategies:
Emotional
Definition
Attempts to provoke involvement
or emotion through ambiguity,
humor without strong selling
emphasis
Conditions
Best suited to discretionary
Items associated with emotions
Competitive
Implications
Competitors may imitate to
undermine strategy of difference
or pursue other alternatives
Alternative Strategies:
Generic
Definition
A claim that could be made by
any company in that category.
No attempt to differentiate the
brand.
Conditions
Best suited to brands that
dominate a product category.
Competitive
Implications
Competitors may imitate but
one’s overall dominance will
mean one gains a larger share
of an increased pie.
Alternative Strategies:
Preemptive
Definition
A generic claim made with an
assertion of superiority.
Conditions
Few real functional differences
between brands. Must be first
in product category to make
the claim, and to support it
with sufficient ad weight.
Competitive
Implications
Effectively precludes
competitors from making a
similar claim.

Workshop Questions
What are the value orientations or valued end-states
that are motivating to our target audiences?
Do they differ across audiences?
How can we find out?
What are the attributes and consequences that link to
those value orientations?
How can our IMC strategy emphasize those
attributes and consequences?
