A: You know, our company is planning to launch an on-line promotion of its new addition of instant noodle range.
B: A worthy try, isn't it? Instant noodles are most favored by busy young people and they are frequent visitors of the internet. The question is how to make the promotion appeal to them and be truly identical?
A: We may use methods of online promotion such as pop-ups, banners and animations, to name a few. They can be impressive when well used,
B: That means they need to be intrusive, relevant, entertaining and not be overused. Otherwise they will be one of the most annoying things that will distract the user from reading the content.
A: But of course they are not the best ways. For instance,  manner ads can be expensive.  To achieve any level of success, there must be heavy repetition in order to give the advertisement a chance to work and that requires a large budget. B:  In my opinion,  a better way is to blend promotional and non-promotional information to deliver the advertising messages. For instance, we may use newer formats such as flash or TV-like counter seals to show to our potential customers the process of making quality instant noodles and highlight our selling point.
A: Great idea. I see what you mean. One of our strong points is that we add vitamin E to prevent the noodles from going bad too quickly instead of traditional preservative or antiseptic which people
a.re not comfortable with.
B: In that way product and promotion are subtly mixed and visitors hardly know an advertising message is delivered. That would be impressive and influential.
A: Exactly. Another thing we have to consider is how to increase hits form customers. Do you have any idea on that?
B: In my opinion, to encourage visits to our site, we have to update information frequency and provide many opportunities for interaction.
A: Good idea. And we can organize some online games and activities like sweepstakes, contests, coupons, and rebates to offer prizes to those who take part in.
B: Prizes may include weekend holidays, CD or stamp collections.
A: And a large pack of our new addition of instant noodles !
B: With that I believe hits will increase and brand recognition doubled. This is a good way to create and cultivate customer loyalty.
