TV's "Modern Family," Brand Integration, Partnerships And Promotion, With the 9P's Of Marketing

In an example of brand integration which deals with "Partners," in the nine P's of Marketing, it took several partners: ABC, Fox, the producers for ABC's hot "Modern Family," plus the NAB (National Association of Realtors) to make a deal and to promote the NAB's strategic benefit of being a "realtor," not a real estate agent.

What is "Brand Integration:" The brand message was written into the script. Advertisers are looking for more creative ways for brands to get their messages in front of potential users, as in this case home buyers and specifically first-time buyers. 

Brand integration is hot with clients and advertising agencies; they are looking to reach TV viewers and potential buyers with out their messages being zipped, zapped or skipped over during programs.

A little more background: The NAB, a trade association, wants to communicate the advantages of being and working with a "realtor." People as part of the 9P's are the target or audiences, and in this example are home buyers and sellers.

As part of the brand integration the NAB also is working with Phil Dunphy (Ty Burrell) in an advertising campaign which ran before and after the "Modern Family" show. That's advertising and one of the eight elements under Promotion under the nine P's.

Marketing Objectives, Strategies And Tactics. Planograms or PlanoGuides, With Nine P's Of Marketing

The retail shelf space represents a complex chessboard or checkerboard of financial risks and rewards.

Retailers plan their store layouts. Every row, aisle and section or department. They develop schematic diagrams for every row, aisle and section or department.

For the (retail) buyer, they are the department behind the scene that procures the items to put on the shelf. It's the store personnel who stock the shelves.

They plan and test where items are to be displayed and placed.

Retailers use schematic diagrams to properly display merchandise for their shoppers.

These shelf layouts are referred to by retailing professionals as “Planograms, Plan-o-guides and product shelve diagrams or simply the planned displaying of product on the store’s or chain’s shelves in a systematic way.

It's these retail buyers behind the scene that face the daunting task of filling the finite limitations of shelf space with a rotating products that will generate sales at the store or on the web and profit.

These buyer must consider where these products will be positioned on shelves or on the web in order to weigh potential for sales against shoppers’ purchasing habits.

From the shopper in the store shoppers may think of shelf placement as “where the product is."

But there is considerable science to support their decision making and the consumer purchasing decisions.

Known As Burbank Airport. Named Bob Hope Airport. Using An Example of Marketing Reseach And Planning, Under The Nine P's Of Marketing.

It's been Bob Hope Airport for thirteen years, but for many of us who were born, work and live in Los Angeles, the airport in Burbank is Burbank Airport.

Only a few airports don't have their geographic city in the title. Bob Hope Airport is one along with John Wayne Airport (but people call John Wayne in Orange County, John Wayne, more than anyone uses Bob Hope for the Bob Hope Airport), La Guardia in New York City, JFK International in New York City. 

A branding company has come up with some ideas, like renaming Bob Hope Airport ...Burbank Los Angeles or Los Angeles Burbank Airport. Part of their logic and planning comes from one of the nine P's of Marketing, "Planning and research," under the 9P's of Marketing.  

Those two names work, but for me as a marketing and promotional expert, but I like the one Burbank Los Angeles Airport for strategic marketing planning reasons.

Rock And Roll Songs At Political Events: "Planning," "Presentation," "Passion" And "Promotion," Under The Nine P's Of Marketing.

Many of the 9P's are used. I'm adding an example of "Presentation" and more of the nine P's of Marketing. Here are a few related to stars like:

  • Rolling Stones
  • Neil Young
  • Elton John
  • Fleetwood Mac
  • Billy Joel

This week the Rolling Stones said that they have not given permission to Trump or to his promotional campaign managers to use RS songs.  They said that they have requested that the campaign must "cease all use immediately."
I created the 9P's of Marketing.  One of them is "Presentation: This “P” or “Presentation” is the act of 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. I guess I can add voters and potential voters.  Just like targeting and potential customers and customers. 
The elements under "Presentation" may be 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. Like music of rock stars: Stones, Fleetwood Mac, Neil Young, Elton John and others
While I teach that traditional marketing is based on target audience impressions/ views/ clicks/ exposure, experimental marketing involves engaging with consumers. Enabling consumers and “allowing” them to “feel” the brand. 
Positive emotions broaden people’s ideas and we sell longer and can be more perceptive, more creative. 
For the seller, positive emotions can widen our view of the potential buyer and the specific situation. Where negative emotions help us see trees, positive ones reveal forests. They can aid in devising unexpected solutions to the buyer’s problem. The effects of positivity during a sales experience can infect the buyer, making him or her less adversarial, more open to the possibility and more willing to make a purchase. 
In the overall “presentation,” well-planned, well-presented, well-written, strategic creative plays a big role in creating AIDA (Awareness, Interest, Desire and Action) in the overall presentation to your “People,“ your potential customers, suppliers, wholesalers, retailers, sales force, marketing intermediaries, clients, employees, and/or partners. 
You may not know that political campaigns as in the primaries and in the general elections don't need the artists' permission to play their songs at political rallies.  They do need the political organization  has received a "blanket" license from ASCAP and BMI, licensing partners. There's another P, "Partners.".. 
Artists, publishers and others can object to the use of their songs. They would ask that their songs are excluded from the "blanket" license.

I consult and teach using the Marketing concepts and practices of the Nine P's/9P's of Marketing.


In the study and practice of Marketing, Marketing and Brand Managers develop plans, strategies and tactics. 


The Nine P's of Marketing include these important components or elements:

  • Planning
  • People 
    • It's about Segmentation and Targeting. 
    • "People" or targeting has almost always been left out of the traditional "Marketing Mix." Almost every diagram includes the four P's with "Consumer" or "People" or "Potential Buyers" in the middle of the circle. There needs to be more focus on the "Customer," or "People." 
    • "People," market segments utilizing demographics, geographics, psychographics, behavioral characteristics and technographics are a vital component of the 9P's of Marketing. Once a target market is chosen, the organization can develop its marketing strategies to target this market segment.
  • Product and Services 
  • Place (Distribution) 
  • Price
  • Promotion: 
    • Eight (8) major, strategic components: The communication elements include personal and non-personal communication activities. Activities that communicate the merits of the overall product, which include:
    • Personal Selling/ Sales Force
    • Advertising
    • 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
      • Strategic questions under Promotion::
        • What should you promote?
        • To whom should you promote?
        • What economic and discount levels should you offer?
        • What form of promotion should you offer? Features?
        • How frequent?
  • Partners: 
    • It is important to partner with firms that have similar corporate philosophies, who have agreed upon objectives and strategies.
  • Presentation: 
    • The “P” or “Presentation” is the act of 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.
    • Look at “real” product and service experiences. I place “events and experiences” also under Promotion. While traditional marketing is based on target audience impressions/ views/ clicks/ exposure, experimental marketing involves engaging with consumers. Enabling consumers and “allowing” them to feel the brand. 
  • Passion:
    • Those intense, driving or overmastering feelings, emotions in the planning, developing, pricing, promoting, partnering, selling and overall marketing of products or services.

Sad But True. St Louis Rams Playing In 1923 Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Opened 93 Years Ago.

Ironically the St. Louis Rams are leaving St. Louis after complaining that their 21 year old stadium is too old, but they will play at least three years in the May 1, 1923 built Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum before moving to inglewood, California. Really.

St. Louis with city, the state and the county built what was essentially a "spec" stadium, first called or named the Trans World Dome. Then it was named Edward Jones, the financial services company. 

I read that this stadium was paid for entirely with public funds of approximately $260 Million in bonds. 
Professional sports owners are always on the take and want more and more. Bigger, better, more profitable stadiums.

The professional sports business model is to push governments civic entities to use public subsidies, bonds, taxes, funds plus related services to cover as much of the cost or costs as possible. 

So there is so much more to this story of the new Inglewood team that will play in the Memorial Coliseum.
