"The Brutalist:" It's Not Good Marketing And Promotion When AI Becomes The Story Of Your Promotion And PR.

When AI can get you into trouble.

When too much PR and information can get you into trouble with your PR tactics and copy points.

The Brutalist: Maybe one of the frontrunners for the Oscars and award season.

This is not good for box office, Oscar voting or the PR push.

The editor, Dávid Jancsó, for The Brutalist has admitted to using AI, and that action has fueled a backlash on social media for The Brutalist.

From an interview in a tech magazine, the editor Jancsó revealed that AI tools were used. A Ukrainian software company was used to improve the authenticity of the Hungarian dialogue of stars, Brody and Jones.

PR is one of eight components under "Promotion," in the Nine P's Of Marketing. Promotion 

The Nine P’s include these important concepts, practices and components:

• People (Segmentation and Targeting)
• In my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users. Could include The Town, Oscar voters and the movie going audience. 
• Product and Services
• Place (Distribution)
• Price or Pricing 
• Planning and Research. From the founder of Intuit, Scott Cook, said: " A brand is no longer what we tell the consumer it is -- (maybe from Marketing Research never was is my comment) it is what consumers (“People” in the 9P’s) tell each other it is.

• Promotion: 
• There are eight (8) major, strategic components or communication elements which are personal and non-personal communication activities. 
• The activities that communicate the merits of the overall product include:
• Personal Selling/ Sales Force: Sales persons
• Listen more than you talk. People who listen more, learn more, plus helps you position your service/product/solution or offering. 
• Advertising: 
Like Super Bowl advertising in February for Super Bowl LVIII on CBS.
You may not know that Google, Facebook and Amazon attract 46 cents of every dollar spent by advertisers. In fact, Google and Facebook are the dominant digital advertising market vendors in the US, accounting for a combined 48.4% of total digital ad spending. Think about this expression "It is only creative if the product or service sells." I wanted to add "It is only good media spending if it sells."
• Sales Promotion
• Collateral Materials
• Direct Marketing (also referred to as Action or Direct Response Advertising)
• Interactive/Internet/Web, Digital Media, Social Media:  
• Events and Experiences
• Public Relations/PR 
• Partners/Alliances: Most times Marketers can’t create customer value and build customer relationships only by themselves. They work closely with partners and alliances outside the firm, and with other company departments (inside partners).

  o   Partnering with brands outside their sector will open up added sales, new area or new “People.”

  o   Partnerships and teams that feel a connection to the work and the purpose are going to speak far more passionately together and to your or their “people,” and with far more influence.

  o   A partnership; the joint relationships, partnerships and strategic alliances: The relationship existing between two parties; a relationship resembling a legal partnership and usually involving close cooperation between parties having specific and joint rights and responsibilities as a common enterprise. Usually plural or “Partners,” not Partner. 

  o   Ensure that there is excellent planned and natural alignment of internal and external agencies/partnerships/alliances around common goals and purposes. They should be moving toward shared goals or goals. 

• Presentation: 
• The act or acts of strategically presenting any of the different 9P’s© and/or components to your customers, suppliers, wholesalers, retailers, sales force, marketing intermediaries, clients, employees, partners, and/or others. 

  Presentation aspects may be signs, symbols or images that represent something; a descriptive or persuasive account (as a sales person of the product or service). Something set forth for the attention of mind of your targets ("People") and media audiences.

• Passion

With inflation at increasing higher levels, we are seeing brick and mortar retailers needing physical traffic to survive. Gas prices at record levels are keeping customers from driving more. One stop shopping is more important than ever.

Not Coke? McDonalds? Google? Apple? Starbucks? Walmart? Movie Stars? Who May Have The Best Brand?

I'd say Taylor Swift. 

She's so smart. She wrote: “The fires in California have devastated so many families, and it’s been heartbreaking to see these stories unfold. So much suffering, loss, and destruction.”

She gave bonuses to everyone on her Eras tour.

She just shared how she’s lending a helping hand to all of the people suffering from the devastating L.A. wildfires.

She’s also encouraging her fans and supporters to do the same.

“As so many people embark on some of the most challenging times of their lives, there are also many amazing organizations and groups banding together to help these communities rebuild...  These are the organizations I’ve donated to. If you feel compelled or able to donate, please do.”

Swift’s list of organizations included:

• Los Angeles Regional Food Bank
• Direct Relief
• 211 LA
• California Community Foundation Fund
• Greater Los Angeles Education Foundation
• Habitat For Humanity of Greater Los Angeles
• Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation
• Los Angeles Unified School District Education Foundation Emergency Relief Fund
• MusiCares
• Pasadena Educational Foundation Eaton Fire Response Fund.

What is a brand? It come from the branding of cattle. Almost very product in a supermarket has a brand. It's how you find or identify it and can compare. 

I teach that it is a unique name, term, design, symbol or other feature that identifies a company's product or service from others. It may create a recognition in the minds of consumers.

Could and can be often associated with specific qualities, values and perceptions beyond just the product itself; essentially, it's how people perceive a company or product, including their beliefs, feelings and associations with it.

CyberTruck or CyberFlop: Discounting Already. Using the 9P's Of Marketing- Elon Musk’s F-150 Fighter

I taught a class in Marketing and Advertising last night at Loyola Law School. Used the Cyber Truck as one of 156 examples of Marketing v. Advertising. 

I would have used the "discounting" story. I have used pictures and my driving experience with the Cyber Truck in Marketing, Global Marketing, Advertising Campaign classes plus Advertising Law classes. in 2023-2025. 

I got to drive a Cyber Truck in downtown LA at the Auto Show last month. Kind of fun driving it on the streets.

Backing up without a mirror interesting. 

Seems everyone loves them or hates the look. I'm positive about the look. 

Is it a flop? Probably too early to know but with a discounted price, just 14 months after introduction of this “Product.” it may be.

Demand has decreased.

They are using one of the strategies of the 9P’s of Marketing: Pricing, by discounting.

It’s got and started with a higher price and may be losing sales to its gasoline counterparts from Ford and Chevrolet, selling in the hundreds of thousands per year.

 The Nine P’s include these important concepts, practices and components:

• People (Segmentation and Targeting)
• In my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users.

Rams and Vikings Game Goes From Inglewood, California to Glendale, Arizona..."Place," Under 9P's Of Marketing

For a change of venue.

In Marketing strategies and tactics, one of the nine P's is "Place."

I created the 9P's and define "Place ;" as Place/Distribution: The company’s activities that make the product available, using distribution and trade channels, roles, coverage, assortments, locations, inventory and transportation characteristics and alternatives. At the right Place. offering the right Product at the right Price, with the right Partners and Presentation, at also the right time or timing.

The NFL moved the Rams-Viking game to Arizona do to the fires and air quality of Los Angeles. 

How far in advance was the Planning and other of the 9P's? Five or six months.

The NFL’s plan for moving tonight's wild-card playoff game began months ago. 

By July 26, 2024 all 32 NFL teams had to submit to the league office a calendar showing the events and potential availability of their home stadiums. 

The NFL requests all days of the week. not just game Sundays. 

The NFL knows exactly where it can turn in an emergency situation.

What Is CX? How Does It Relate To Marketing Objectives, Strategies And Tactics With The 9P's Of Marketing

CX stands for customer experience. CX can occur at any point in a customer's relationship with a brand, from before considering a purchase to after-sales service. 

CX can also refer to customer experience management, which is an organization's efforts to improve customer experiences

 Marketing is “the right research and planning (getting) the right product or service to the right people (target market), at the right time, at the right place (distribution, e-commerce), at the right price, with right partners/relationships/alliances,  with right communications, promotion plus passion and presentation.”

Brand managers and advertising managers sometimes want to play it safe and communicate broadly to the masses but in my world more importantly to a target market of potential customers or “People” under my 9P’s of Marketing.

These manager sometimes want to avoid alienating.

But I feel a good number of TV spots in the Super Bowl will be dumb. They are doing the opposite—they are trying to shock the audience.

I saw a prediction that brands that dare to get weird will rule in 2025, turning heads, stopping scrolls and building cultural moments people won’t forget.”  Harder said than done.

CX stands for customer experience, which is the overall impression a customer has of a brand or company after interacting with their products or services (“Product” under my 9P’s. 

CX may also refer to the a level of satisfaction with a government agency, product, or service. 

As in the five ways you can segment a target market. CX is a combination of a customer's cognitive, affective, sensory and behavioral responses to a product or brand. 

My Marketing variable “People,” can also include the customer's feelings, perceptions, memories, and behavioral attitudes/intentions. Think purchasers and users.

CX can be difficult for brands to control because customers can react in unpredictable ways. 

To improve their CX, brand, customer service  and advertising managers, their brands can: 

• Research customer perceptions, including users
• Review and optimize each customer touchpoint
• Develop and determine marketing research insights (“Planning,” under the nine P’s.
• It seems everyone wants a good rating. Listen to and collect actual customer feedback
• Design products and services plus solutions to meet their customer needs
• Add the insights and perceptions of you or their employees
• Develop Marketing budgets. Look at Media with an eye on Reach, Frequency and Continuity
• Use technology, data, and analytics. Look at moral, ethical, legal and privacy concerns. Marketing, “People/Targeting/Data,” Promotion, Advertising and the FTC.   Adding Influencers or evaluating them.

The Nine P’s include these important concepts, practices and components:

• People (Segmentation and Targeting)

Under Planning. Product And All The 9P's Of Marketing. Amazon's Future In '99 Wasn't Just An Online Bookstore

Amazon stated in '95. It was 30 years ago. Look at ecommerce now.  

Back then if you needed a book as a gift or something new to read in '95?

Remember Barnes & Noble. They are just a shadow of what they were. 

Sadly so many neighborhood and mall book stores have gone away.

Back then, some saw Amazon as a middleman, under "Place," in my 9P's.

Now you could teach an entire class of Marketing using just Amazon and the nine P's. 

With inflation at increasing higher levels, we are seeing brick and mortar retailers needing physical traffic to survive. Gas prices at record levels are keeping customers from driving more. One stop shopping is more important than ever. 

Look at Jeff Bezos. Adweek said or wrote in 1999, "it remains to be seen whether Amazon will become the Wal-Mart of the internet."

What does Amazon sell? Amazon sells a wide variety of products, including:

• Electronics: Consumer electronics, wireless earbuds, and diffusers 
• Clothing: Apparel, shoes, and jewelry for men, women, girls, boys, and babies 
• Media: Books, movies, music, and software 
• Food and drink: Gourmet food, groceries, fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy, fresh seafood and meats, snacks, beverages, and alcohol 
• Health and personal care products: Beauty products, skincare, and infant care products 
• Home and kitchen items: Cookery and cutlery, kitchen items, and cleaning products 
Toys and games: Games and toys, and fitness equipment and apparel 
Other items: Watches, lawn and garden items, industrial and scientific supplies, and tools 

The Nine P’s include these important concepts, practices and components:

• People (Segmentation and Targeting)
• In my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users. 
• Product and Services, books and almost everything is sold at Amazon. 
• Place (Distribution)
• Price or Pricing 
• Planning and Research. From the founder of Intuit, Scott Cook, said: " A brand is no longer what we tell the consumer it is -- (maybe from Marketing Research never was is my comment) it is what consumers (“People” in the 9P’s) tell each other it is.

• Promotion: 
• There are eight (8) major, strategic components or communication elements which are personal and non-personal communication activities. 
• The activities that communicate the merits of the overall product include:
• Personal Selling/ Sales Force: Sales persons
• Listen more than you talk. People who listen more, learn more, plus helps you position your service/product/solution or offering. 
• Advertising: 
Like Super Bowl advertising in February for Super Bowl LVIII on CBS.
You may not know that Google, Facebook and Amazon attract 46 cents of every dollar spent by advertisers. In fact, Google and Facebook are the dominant digital advertising market vendors in the US, accounting for a combined 48.4% of total digital ad spending. Think about this expression "It is only creative if the product or service sells." I wanted to add "It is only good media spending if it sells."
• Sales Promotion
• Collateral Materials
• Direct Marketing (also referred to as Action or Direct Response Advertising)
• Interactive/Internet/Web, Digital Media, Social Media:  
• Events and Experiences
• Public Relations/PR

• Partners/Alliances: Most times Marketers can’t create customer value and build customer relationships only by themselves. They work closely with partners and alliances outside the firm, and with other company departments (inside partners).

o   Partnering with brands outside their sector will open up added sales, new area or new “People.”

o   Partnerships and teams that feel a connection to the work and the purpose are going to speak far more passionately together and to your or their “people,” and with far more influence.

o   A partnership; the joint relationships, partnerships and strategic alliances: The relationship existing between two parties; a relationship resembling a legal partnership and usually involving close cooperation between parties having specific and joint rights and responsibilities as a common enterprise. Usually plural or “Partners,” not Partner. 

o   Ensure that there is excellent planned and natural alignment of internal and external agencies/partnerships/alliances around common goals and purposes. They should be moving toward shared goals or goals. 

• Presentation: 
• The act or acts of strategically presenting any of the different 9P’s© and/or components to your customers, suppliers, wholesalers, retailers, sales force, marketing intermediaries, clients, employees, partners, and/or others. 

  Presentation aspects may be signs, symbols or images that represent something; a descriptive or persuasive account (as a sales person of the product or service). Something set forth for the attention of mind of your targets ("People") and media audiences.

• Passion

Product As In A Movie: Did You Know Pamela Anderson’s Former Agent Tossed “The Last Showgirl” Script Into The Trash?

Talking about new product development by way of a script, securing talent and making a movie.

Pamela Anderson said: “He threw it in the trash within the hour and never called me.”

Seeing “The Last Showgirl” today.

Pamela Anderson was the one actress first-time screenwriter Kate Gersten had in mind to play the lead actress in "The Last Showgirl." 

The problem: Pamela Anderson’s agent and a good reason for this story and my post.  Her agent didn’t bother to send the script regarding a 50-something Las Vegas dancer. And the struggles.

But here’s the story: The film’s director, Gia Coppola, yes that Coppola family member, found Anderson’s son Brandon through friends. He got it to his mother  who loved it. .

Pamela Anderson said: “I remember coming out of my garden, getting a message from Brandon and sitting at my computer and reading it. And I thought, ‘This is it.” She adds:  “This is my opportunity to pour my entire life experience into something, a woman who is so well written, well rounded, flawed, interesting, complex. It was just a breathtaking piece of work. I’ve never had that feeling before.” 

The Nine P’s do include include these important concepts, practices and components:

• Planning and Research. From the founder of Intuit, Scott Cook, said: " A brand is no longer what we tell the consumer it is -- (maybe from Marketing Research never was is my comment) it is what consumers (“People” in the 9P’s) tell each other it is.
• People (Segmentation and Targeting)
• In my 9P's, I stress that firms need to look and analyze potential, new, existing and repeat customers and users. 
• Product and Services, as in movies and motion pictures. 
• Place (Distribution), as in movie theatres and streaming
• Price or Pricing 
• Promotion: 
• There are eight (8) major, strategic components or communication elements which are personal and non-personal communication activities. 
• The activities that communicate the merits of the overall product include:
• Personal Selling/ Sales Force: Sales persons
• Listen more than you talk. People who listen more, learn more, plus helps you position your service/product/solution or offering. 
• Advertising: 
Like Super Bowl advertising in February for Super Bowl LVIII on CBS.
You may not know that Google, Facebook and Amazon attract 46 cents of every dollar spent by advertisers. In fact, Google and Facebook are the dominant digital advertising market vendors in the US, accounting for a combined 48.4% of total digital ad spending. Think about this expression "It is only creative if the product or service sells." I wanted to add "It is only good media spending if it sells."
• Sales Promotion
• Collateral Materials
• Direct Marketing (also referred to as Action or Direct Response Advertising)
• Interactive/Internet/Web, Digital Media, Social Media:  
• Events and Experiences
• Public Relations/PR
• With inflation at increasing higher levels, we are seeing brick and mortar retailers needing physical traffic to survive. Gas prices at record levels are keeping customers from driving more. One stop shopping is more important than ever. 
• Partners/Alliances: Most times Marketers can’t create customer value and build customer relationships only by themselves. They work closely with partners and alliances outside the firm, and with other company departments (inside partners).   

Partnering with brands outside their sector will open up added sales, new area or new “People.”

Partnerships and teams that feel a connection to the work and the purpose are going to speak far more passionately together and to your or their “people,” and with far more influence.

A partnership; the joint relationships, partnerships and strategic alliances: The relationship existing between two parties; a relationship resembling a legal partnership and usually involving close cooperation between parties having specific and joint rights and responsibilities as a common enterprise. Usually plural or “Partners,” not Partner.

 Ensure that there is excellent planned and natural alignment of internal and external                 agencies/partnerships/alliances around common goals and purposes. They should                 be moving toward shared goals or goals. 

• Presentation:
• The act or acts of strategically presenting any of the different 9P’s© and/or components to your customers, suppliers, wholesalers, retailers, sales force, marketing intermediaries, clients, employees, partners, and/or others. 

  Presentation aspects may be signs, symbols or images that represent something; a descriptive or persuasive account (as a sales person of the product or service). Something set forth for the attention of mind of your targets ("People") and media audiences.

• Passion, some great involved both negatively and positively in this post.
