Direct Response Advertising – The Multi Billion Dollar Industry

Direct Response Advertising is an up and coming industry worth over 250 Billion Dollars. The funny thing about it is that consumers dont generally feel like they are affected by it. Believing that they arent gullible enough to fool for an advertising campaign. This is until you find they own a Smeg fridge and the latest HD TV. Even people who are suspicious of advertising find a way of being sold things that they might not normally purchase and this is why Direct Response Advertising is such a massive industry.

This form of advertising is easily the most effective form being used today, why is this? One word. Television. Experts in America believe that companies can put their brand across to over 98% of the population. That is approximately 295 million people! These television adverts are also giving potential customers the chance to find out more about the product by using their websites to view and purchase. Something that wasnt available until a few years ago is changing the way we as the consumer purchase goods and as the company advertise it.

In able to get the best possible profit for your brand or product you need to make sure that first of all your product will sell, this sounds obvious but there is no point having a great advert for a poor product. Secondly making a decent profit between the hard cost and the RRP. The cherry on top is to make sure that you offer something that your competitors dont, giving them an incentive to buy your product.

You will find that once consumers use and enjoy your product they will more than likely purchase it again. A decent product will keep a customer for life.

Webcam modeling, a blooming industry

At the beginning we advertise our webcam model job vacancies through traditional media such as local papers and shop window ads, until a year ago we kicked off our online advertisement campaign. Surely this has a huge impact in the number of Responses.

Scenario Of Mobile Industry In India

A lot of water has flowed under the bridge from the time that mobiles were unheard of in India to the present where they have become almost ubiquitous. Beginning from those days, Indian subscribers paid around Rs. 16.40 for a mobile to mobile call and around Rs 32.80 for a mobile to a landline call. Today, as per recent statistics, customers pay far lesser for calls and occasional text messages that add up to around Rs 300 a month and upwards.

Now that mobiles have moved into the affordable bracket, there is a great demand for additional mobile services such as mobiles, email, stock market quotes, and astrology services, just to name a few.

A recent survey pointed to the fact that for most customers, mobile phones have become an extension of their personality. Many go a step ahead to say that mobile phones define their individuality as well.

In such a scenario, it is worthwhile to compare the growth of the mobile phone industry vis-a-vis the computer industry in India. According to recent statistics, there are nearly 300 million mobile phone subscribers as compared to just around 30 million PCs in the country. Additionally, around 8 million subscribers are signing up every month for mobile services alone.

For most individuals, mobile phones are becoming a single point of contact for the world surrounding them covering a wide range of utilities like emailing, entertainment, and banking.

More and more people are looking out for more than just talk time on their mobiles. All this is generating a lot of enthusiasm for mobile companies. A number of serious players in this industry are looking at a range of such value added services, which have the capability to boost their bottom line.

Not only are Indians enthralled, but they started spending a considerable amount on these services too. This figure amounted to around $250 million last year. This figure is expected to reach $1.7 billion by the year 2010. This is a boon in disguise for Indian cellular operators who are seriously looking forward to enhance their revenues. Currently, nearly 80% of the revenues come from services like ring tones and SMS. This makes India the second largest mobile market on earth.

The young mobile savvy generation currently feels less privileged in nearly every sector. And thats precisely what is fuelling the growth in mobile services across the country. As the market expands but fulfilling the needs of mobile users by providing them attractive services, mobile phones are becoming a new vehicle for reaching out to the mobile generation.

Mobile content providers also visualise a big jump in their services. These include many global companies such as Google, Yahoo and MSN, which have signed up with many Indian operators like Airtel, Bharti, Vodafone, Tata, and Reliance Communications. Together, they offer a host of services based on the local and regional markets in their area of operation.

The Indian mobile scenario seems to be all set for the next stage expansion and consolidation, but there are a few complications as well. Not all users can afford costlier services beyond messaging and talk time. What is expected is increase in the already growing user base so such services can become affordable to one and all in the long run.
