Increasingly, advertising agencies are participating in key aspects of marketing including the product aspect of the marketing mix."

From the Paper "In order to understand the role of advertising agencies in today's global society, it is first necessary to understand the relationship between customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction, and profitability. These may not seem to have much correlation to advertising and advertising agencies, but they actually do. The reason for this is that these issues are all strongly affected by advertising. Customers that see an advertisement will often purchase products based on that advertisement, and if the product does not live up to the way that it was portrayed in the advertising, customer satisfaction will be very low.

From the Paper "The agency boasts of impressive list of clients out which the major ones are Tucker Federal Bank and Georgia State University. Under the Tucker Federal Bank campaign, it was directed at marketing for new customers in case of this independent bank which was suffering from a low awareness level in the market.

In slightly more than six months, a campaign with the message "not too big, not too small, just right" had achieved an awareness of 67% as regards the slogan is concerned. The brand awareness had attained 52% and 60% proven recall. Besides, the agency also made a major redesign of the corporate website of its client to enhance the convenience of its customer while ensuring at the same time that the cost-per acquisition of an online customer remains low."
Abstract This paper looks at the transition from local ad agencies to global conglomerates. These new mega firms, as the author explains, are responsible for creating world-wide advertising campaigns that must have universal appeal, while also maintaining local relevance. The author examines a number of case studies based on international companies seeking to promote themselves from Europe to the Far East. The paper analyzes what campaigns worked -- and why -- and how ad agencies are able to position themselves as global agents.
From the Paper "Reality, however, varies from Germany to Australia, from Japan to Italy. So does make-believe. In order to be truly global (and yet, at the same time "local") one has to understand what works in each nation, what attracts potential customers, and where is that attraction? It is this notion of "going global" that has changed the face and the fate of American Advertising Agencies."

Advertisements target viewers by classifying the strong selling point of the product. On this same foundation, advertisements are set to promote the said product by identifying their target market. Upon classification of the product and identifying its market, advertising agencies use several techniques and resources of different forms and then later apply them to the concept of their advertisement."
Abstract Often times, when planning an ad campaign, a company will turn to an advertisingagency for help. One criterion for choosing an agency is the effectiveness and success rate of their campaigns. This paper examines how, in measuring the effectiveness of an advertising campaign there are multiple criteria which can be employed. The paper also discusses how it is the job of the hired advertisingagency to understand these methods and apply them properly in order to create an effective ad.
From the Paper "Another method for increasing sales through marketing is by using the internet and the popularity of social networking sites to their advantage. This has shown both success and failure for many companies depending on the technique used. At first, many companies tried posting advertisements on websites such as MySpace, face book, and other social networks but realized that the click through rate for these ads actually ended up with a much lower rate than traditional online banners and resulted in higher costs and lower sales for the companies. The method that seemed to succeed best was to create a face book website for the company. Generally, 79% of internet users click on banner ads on various websites but only 57% of these users clicked on banner ads found on social network sites. "
Abstract This paper explains that advertising must catch the customer's eye and offer something that he or she is interested enough to read. The author points out that, although most large advertisingagencies have been aware for some time of the use of color, text and design especially in print ads, smaller agencies or companies that wish to self-promote their products or services may have more difficulty with these particular issues. The paper describes three print ads, what is right and wrong with them and what should be done to correct the problems through retextualization.

From the Paper "Many employers will take surveys and do other things to try to find out whether customers are satisfied with their company. Advertising agencies also do this, to determine what it is that people need and whether they like a new advertising campaign. After these have been conducted, the more conscientious companies will try to incorporate suggestions from their customers into the way that they do business in order to raise the satisfaction level that these customers feel when they shop with the company, and the more conscientious advertising agencies will try to adjust their advertisements so that they meet with the approval of the company that is buying the advertising and with the customers that will be viewing them."

Abstract With millions of people already logged onto the Internet, and more signing on everyday, information that is printed online is viewed by a massive number of people. This large number of potential consumers has fueled the motivation for advertisingagencies to post ads online. This paper shows that, through online advertising , consumers are able to go directly to a web site just by clicking on the ad. This convenience has made Internet advertising what it is today. The paper explains that the company benefits from this type of advertising by being able to get exact numbers of how many potential consumers click through on their ad. The advantages of online advertising have given rise to tremendous growth, which has changed job opportunities, as well as created innovative methods to publicize. The paper also includes an illustration.
From the Paper "Every year companies spend an unbelievable amount of money on Internet advertising in order to further their sales (Taylor 45). IBM's new e-business advertising campaign has cost the company over 75 million dollars. The ads will feature IBM Global Services Employees who are helping companies succeed in the fast changing e-business environment. Aside from advertising on the Internet, they will also implement a direct marketing series, as well as showcase announcement programs (Cox 1). This kind of "go-for-broke" advertising campaign can be extremely risky. Several companies who have attempted this have failed and been forced to shut down. Despite the risks, many Internet e-tailers are still using over 60 percent of their annual incomes to fund this kind of advertising campaign (Taylor 46). If these campaigns are correctly planned and executed, then the investment can provide a substantial return for the business (Rossetti 30)."
Abstract This paper reviews how media will continue to change and evolve as it responds to advertising and marketing needs in the future. It looks at the impact of the 21st century upon clients and the advertisingagencies themselves and then discusses what all of this means for various traditional advertising tools, such as newspapers and magazines. The paper particularly focuses on the role of the Internet in the future of advertising and media.
From the Paper "Technology will also evolve in much the same dynamic fashion as all of the other elements of twenty-first century marketing and advertising. Several of these technological possibilities - such as VOIP technology integrated with e-commerce managers or new holistic software packages that facilitate immediate response to purchasing patterns - have been previously touched upon and need not be returned to here. However, other technological advances could include interactive or virtual reality technology for geographically-distant consumers eager to "test-drive" a new product. Likewise, an advertising agency might give its sales staff palm-pilots equipped with features that provide them with instantaneous information about a client's questions or concerns simply by aggregating data about that client's purchasing patterns and demographic characteristics. In any case, the next five years or so are likely to see startling advances in all of these areas as the once-elusive goal of instantaneous information transfer and synthesis is worked towards steadily."

Roosevelt including such agencies as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and many others. These agencies are in operation to protect a public interest rather than to protect private rights ... "
