RADIO ADVERTS

Today we listened to 3 old radio adverts that Penwith college used to advertise their open evenings.

I shall be analysing the adverts and answering the following questions.

(1) Who is the Target Audience?
(2) How have the adverts been tailored to the target audience (Style of Music,Pace,Voice,etc)?
(3) Do They Show A Good understanding of the Colleges Target Audience?

Radio Advert 1
The first advert is mainly to notify everyone that both Truro college and Penwith college have merged and to advertise this they are holding an open evening at the Penwith campus which will enable people to see what courses are available. the Target Audience for this particular advert is everyone who goes to college from 16-19 year olds to adults who want to try something new.

Radio Advert 2
The Second Advert is mainly dedicated to the adults who want to start again with their education and the place to come for this is penwith college and inviting them to an open evening where they can look at the courses that the college has to offer.

Radio Advert 3
The third Radio advert is mainly targeted at the 16-19 year olds with a HipHop beat and speaking like us youngsters ( which he fails Epically) (LOL.)
The person who is speaking does try to get across that their is a way for our future and that its at penwith college. to get his point across he announces that there is going to be an open evening which gives them the opportunity to talk to the lecturers in the different courses.

Penwith College New Material Marketing Meeting



The reason why I have put the Independant Enquirer image in this post is because during this interview we all at some poimnt asked questions to her.



Today we talked to Emma Kelly who is a member of the Marketing team for Penwith College.






We looked at Various Promotional Materials Including Past College Prospectus's. We also asked her some questions as to how we could go about it and finding out the prices for getting the materials made.






when we looked at the prospectus's i especially liked the one that Emma Herself Had made because it looked really professional whereas the others particularly the earlier ones didn't look too professional.






we also told her the reasons why we chose Penwith College over others and some of the answers included...






It is Local and therefore easy to access.


smaller class sizes which enables you to get more support if you need it.


liked the course.






we also watched the video of how the new build would look like and it seems that our course will probably have the biggest building on our campus (Hee Hee)
