THE ELEMENTS OF COMMUNICATION
• The message initiator (the source)/the sender
• The medium
• The message
• The target audience (the receivers)
• Feedback – the receiver’s response
The Traditional Communications Model
Interactive Communications
• The traditional communications model doesn’t tell the whole story…
- Consumers have many choices available and greater control to process messages
- Permission marketing
More successful in persuading the consumers who have agreed to let him or her try
Ex: SMS – REG ……
Update Communications Model
• Consumers are now proactive in communications process: VCRs, DVRs, video-on-demand, pay-per-view TV, Caller ID, Internet
THE SOURCE
• The source of a message can have a big impact on the likelihood that a message will be accepted
• Expert, celebrity, or “typical consumers”?
- Utilitarian products/high performance risk products: vacuums
- High social risk product: jewelry, furniture
- Everyday product/low risk product; cookies
• Two particularly important source characteristic: credibility & attractiveness
The Source Credibility
• Source’s perceived expertise, objectivity, or trustworthiness
• Credibility of informal sources
Strong – have nothing to gain from the transaction; WOM
• Credibility of formal sources
Not-for-profit sources > for-profit sources
• Credibility of Spokespersons and Endorsers
- Endorser credibility are important when message comprehension is low
- Match must exist between product attributes and endorser attributes
- Credibility is higher when endorser’s demographic characteristic are similar to those of target audience
- ………..(the person)?
• Message credibility
- The source
- The reputation of the medium; the retailer
- Consumer’s previous experience with the product
• The sleeper effect
- The process whereby differences in attitude change between positive and negative sources seem to diminish overtime
- Both positive and negative credibility effects tend to disappear after a period of time (six weeks)
- Dissociative cue hypothesis: over the time the source and the message become disassociated in the consumer’s mind; consumers simply forget the source faster than they forget the message
• Source bias
- Knowledge bias: source’s knowledge about a topic is not accurate
- Reporting bias: a source has the required knowledge but his or her willingness to convey it accurately is compromised (Taufik & Yonex)
- Britney Spears drinks coca-cola & “drives Honda City”; Jamie Aditya drinks Teh Botol, etc
• Hype Vs Buzz: The Corporate Paradox
- Hype: corporate propaganda planted by a company to create product sensation; inauthentic
- Buzz: word of mouth that is viewed as authentic and generated by customers
- The corporate paradox: the more involved a company appears to be in the dissemination of news about its products, the less credible it becomes.
The Source Attractiveness
• The source’s perceived social value
• “What is beautiful is good” stereotype : physical attractiveness
• Celebrities as communications sources; match-up hypothesis; the drawbacks of celebrity endorsers
- Madonna & Coca-cola
• Non human endorsers
- Cartoon characters and mascots, virtual models

• Friendly Vs unfriendly/critical audience
Draw conclusions?

• Hard to follow arguments or consumer’s motivation to follow is lacking: draw conclusions
Comparative advertising?

Ex: Clorox wipes Vs Windex Wipes, KIA spectra VS Toyota Corolla
