www.careertimes.com.hk TVC




The job market is good and it's approaching the year end. Thinking about changing job ? In the past we bought the Saturday's SCMP to look for jobs. Now we don't need to, thanks to the Internet. It's a case of online medium replacing traditional medium. SCMP has online classified post too but I bet jobsdb has been eating up quite a bit of share from SCMP in the job advertisement market. Here is another player, http://www.careertimes.com.hk/, with TVC support. It's not a bad TVC at all as it spells accurately the convenience and the benefits of online job hunting. But such convenience and benefits are generic and common to all online job hunting services. The trouble is that it doesn't talk about any competitive advantage or added benefit if any. Be they more jobs, easier navigation, helpful features or so on, we need to communicate them to consumers to win. So this TVC can uplift its awareness only. Nothing more. Nothing less.

If it prints its logo onto the T-shirts and jeans, be it the frog or anything that says "Giordano", will sales increase ? Probably not. Giordano is a brand you wear but you don't want to admit. It's not a brand like Nike or LV that can uplift your image after all. So if it puts the frog back onto its product, there may be adverse effect on its sales. I haven't visited its store at the time of writing but according to its website, it hasn't added back the frog to its products. I wouldn't do that either. So what is the point of having the frog back in its print and advertising materials ? To remind us of its good old days ?

HKET fan page

Ask yourself as a FB user or a user of any social media : under what circumstances would you share a page, a video or any news ? Either you find it useful or funny for others to enjoy. So in this case, if you don't find the HKET page useful, you just won't share it. Would such lucky draw boost the number of people sharing the page ? Some people may be attracted but I suspect most of us won't really bother. Try paying people to become a fan of your page ? You will need to pay more. LOL
