BTL
The origin of term “BTL” is the following: an advertising manager of Procter & Gamble developed promotion campaign media-plan that included main media channels: TV, press, outdoor etc. He underlined it, summarized the expenses and only after recalled about the board on fairy, souvenirs, gifts etc. He added these expenses to the list “below the line”. BTL is usually opposed/contrasted to ATL (above the line) – advertising in its traditional distribution channels: press, TV, radio, outdoor, movie, Internet.
BTL in marketing is considered one of the most effective tools of product promotion. BTL-events allow not only to create positive image of the company, to get acquainted the customer with the product, to get interested the prospects in product purchasing, but also helps to provide all necessary information on terms of purchase, using and storage of product/service. Visual presentation of a product increases customer loyalty and allows for increasing product sales volumes.
BTL includes: direct mail, exhibitions, point of sale materials (POS). Due to the possibilities of BTL, brands become closer to the target audience, BTL helps to increase loyalty, and communication becomes more qualitative. The main advantage of BTL is the possibility to influence the customer exactly in the moment of taking purchase decision.
The main task of organizers of BTL–event/campaign is developing original, easy-remembered image of the advertised object. Only experienced & talented team of professionals can adequately & successfully realize such task and ensure the client’s positive result in short terms at optimal expenses.
