Currently popular is the concept ofintegrated marketing communications (IMC).
This is the coordination and integration of all marketing communication tools, avenues
and sources within a company into a seamless programme of marketing communications activities. The intention of IMC is to maximize the impact on consumers or business customers and other target audiences, at minimal cost. IMC avoids the waste
and duplication inherent in some organizations in which each element of the promotional mix is controlled by separate managers and may even be executed through different external agencies. There is nothing worse than when an advertising campaign on
radio created by one agency has little resemblance to a television campaign running at
the same time, and created by another advertising agency. This is often compounded
by the public relations, sponsorship, packaging and sales promotions being implemented by yet more agencies in a poorly coordinated fashion. On one occasion, five different agencies were developing marketing communications for market-leading Gordon’s
Gin, each using different shades of green–the brand’s famous identity–and adopting various
typefaces for the logo
