Advertising media

Advertising media is a wide range of channels aimed at promotion. Brands use various advertising media to communicate their message to potential customers. The right channels help companies increase sales and build long-lasting relationships with their audience.

Why is advertising in the media important?

Advertising in the media is crucial for every brand. Each channel is an intermediary between a brand and its customers. Finding a perfect channel allows brands to present their product successfully, communicate their value, and maintain trustful relationships with the target audience.

With the correct channel and well-thought-out advertising message, companies build brand awareness, create buzz around their brand, showcase and demonstrate the benefits of their products, increase their sales volume and revenue, and collect clients’ personal information that allows them to craft highly relevant and personalized offers.

To reach these goals, you need to choose the best channel or a mix for your brand. So, let’s discover the types.

Types of Advertising Media

We’ll divide all advertising media types into online and offline channels.

Offline advertising media include the following channels:

• newspaper advertising;
• TV advertising;
• radio advertising;
• leaflets and flyers;
• brochures;
• posters;
• direct mail;
• business cards;
• different types of guerrilla marketing (ambush marketing, ambient marketing, undercover marketing, experiential marketing).

Online advertising media offers a wide choice of channels which include the following ones:

• social media;
• email marketing;
• PPC advertising;
• chatbots;
• SMS;
