Special K Advertising

In 2006, Kellogg’s launches Special K forest berries and Special K honey almond. A year later, Special K Advantage (fibre) appears in Australia. The last flavor is Special K chocolatey flakes, launched in 2009. The packaging has barely changed since its creation: white background, to represent the purity of the product, and the milk, the big symbol in the middle for the product identity, and some flakes on the right side, for the product representation. There has been an evolution of the nutritional information: now the main compositions are on the front side of the package (sugar, fat, calories). It is part of the strategy to position the product as a partner in weight loss. Te product is considered as a good quality, thanks to its characteristics (benefits for the consumer), and the “Our guarantee to you”, a little section on the left side of the box, explaining that Kellogg has a quality system that assures the highest quality standards to deliver the best product to the consumer. The target of Special K is women, from 20 to 40 years old. Women who try to look and feel good, who are working or raising their children, who want to conciliate their activities with their femininity. Women are represented next to the mention “99% fat free”, and on the back side of the box. Usually they are slim, active and happy. The strategy of Special K is to accompany women all day long, with different products, and to propose them to eat cereals not only for

Commercials through television and radio aimed towards children are ethical because it helps build healthy ideals. Through commercials, children can see that doing certain things are good for you!

Altogether, the ad’s effectiveness covers every factor of persuasion well. The enticement of the Cheerios commercial relies on factual evidence, professional reputation, and touching emotional scenes to appeal and relate to a variation of audiences.

An excellent example of this is a Frosted Mini-Wheats television commercial aired in both 2008 and 2009. Frosted Mini-Wheats is a Kellogg’s-brand frosted wheat cereal. As found on the webpage, the nutritional value states that there are eight layers of whole grains, that are rich in fiber and iron (Mini Wheats Nutritional Info, 2016). Furthermore, during the commercial, the cereal claims that, “A clinical study showed kids who had a filling breakfast of Frosted Mini-Wheats cereal improved their attentiveness by nearly twenty-percent” (Munck, 2010). From this, both parents and children will understand that this wonderful cereal will enhance their ability to memorize things and pay attention. The commercial provided the idea that this specific cereal would be better, and more beneficial than any other cereal they may purchase.

I think the commercial is directed towards people who are starving and have demand to have their food made fast. The commercials audience could also be younger children because by having them watch it and seeing the bright atmosphere, food that has bright coloring and draws your attention, and happy people may draw attention to the younger kids in hopes they will persuade their parents to go there.

Television ads are arguably the most influential form of advertisement for fast food chains considering the fact that there 115.6 million TV homes in the United States, and over half of these homes have at least three TV’s. Today’s children spend on average of 44.5 hours a week in front of some type of screen whether its computer, TV or cellphone. More than any other activity in their lives other than sleeping (American Physiological Association). It has been discovered that children under the age of eight have difficulties telling apart programming and advertising and do not understand the persuasive techniques used on them, making them the main target for fast food companies. By incorporating famous people in TV commercials, people of all ages are tricked into thinking that if they copy the actions of the famous than it is acceptable to give

As many know, Cheerios are known to lower cholesterol which, can reduce the risk of heart and cardiovascular disease. Their commercials exhibit a respectable representation of themselves and of the families within their advertisements. Conveying messages of care for their consumers and having proper morals. In doing so they show their professionalism and trust in their own products and their consumers.

Kellogg’s seeks to concentrate on nutrition and physical fitness through product donation for the hungry, as well as programs that educate families about nutrition that nourishing families so they can have a healthy living’(Kelloggcompany, 2011).

Many advertisements nowadays don’t advertise objects with the verity of their quality. Rather, they get someone in the famous industry to advertise their product so the people that are watching see their favorite famous person and want to buy it because they use it. When most of the people that promote it don’t use it, or it never truly works as they say, and another way they advertise is through foods.

Special K is healthier brand of breakfast cereal owned by Kellogg’s. The cereal brand also has many types of whole grain bars and promotes a healthier lifestyle and better eating habits.

In an average day, an American is exposed to over 3000 advertisements, (Kilbourne). Whether they want to admit it or not, they are drawn toward them. A common scheme of the advertisers is to allow the consumer to “picture the new them.” Whether this be a wealthier them, a skinner them, or a prettier them, they gear there product towards every person and want everyone be able to connect with the advertisement and picture the “new them.” American Idol, Nutrisystem, and The Biggest Loser, the lottery, and many other “products” promote that anyone has the chance to be famous, fit, or fortunate. The successes from these “products” present themselves as they were before, with the sob story that hopefully touches a nerve with

These commercials are sending a bad message to young athletes of America. Training and physical fitness are important components to make a good athlete. Young athletes look up to the stars of today's professional sports. The commercials that children see encourage them to eat foods that are not healthy for them. Usually, the advertisements

The purpose of bringing in Special K Red Berries was to extend the existing brand rather than to replace it. If for example half of the consumers of Special K had switched over to Special K Red Berries and there had been little overall growth in consumption, Kellogg’s would simply be competing in its own market. It was important to test that this would not happen.

Kellogg’s Special K with strawberries is the only competitor in the market currently offering healthy cereal to the consumers.

There are a couple different themes that become very important when analyzing the Nestle Crunch Bar case. During the case, many research channels were used to find various themes and feelings residing within the consumer, conscious and subconscious. Between pages twelve and fourteen, multiple feelings/themes are presented. A couple of these have stuck out in comparison to the others, emotional comfort and enjoyment. These two themes seem to be present in the mind of the consumer through all of the consumer testing studies and also within the consumer throughout the entire purchasing experience.
