MKT301
As part of your marketing plan you are required to create a promotional plan as described in the instructions. There are two parts – the creative brief that explains the action item or activity and mock-ups of your ads or promotional materials as shown in the following examples. As you’ll see – most of these are nothing more than PowerPoint slides created by students like yourself taking MKT301. You are not expected to be design experts or graphic artists. Your instructor simply wants to see that you can demonstrate the concept of matching message, imagery and choice of media to your target audience. Be creative and have some fun with this!
The first few are for a non-profit providing low cost spay and neuter services. The first two are print ads and the second two are billboards. The last is a direct mail piece for a fundraising event.
Now this is what I call a Mother’s Day
Come on, give her break on Mother’s Day by not letting her become a mother. Spayed kitties live longer and healthier lives and don’t contribute to overpopulation.
Call the Animal Coalition of Tampa today to make your low cost spay or neuter appointment.
It’s Cinco de Meow at ACT
Tampa Animal Coalition performed over 5000 cat and dog sterilizations last year. But the need is so much greater. Your corporate table can help subsidize spay and neuter services to Tampa’s unprivileged kitties and puppies.
Call 813-555-1212 to reserve your table.
Join Mewguel and his friends for an evening of music, food, drink and prizes to help end pet overpopulation.

Print ad or movie theatre slide
The next one is a bit unique. It is a hand drawn storyboard for a YouTube video promoting a summer camps for aspiring film makers. The one that follows it is a print or online ad for the same camp.
This could be you one day…
A summer camp to bring out your creative film aspects and unique ideas. Visit our twitter @BTSFILMcamp
This is an amusing print ad or billboard for a pet boarding or daycare business. Note the cute logo.
The next two are ads for Officer Friendly, a non-profit associated with a police department. The last of the three is another hand drawn storyboard.
The next is a bit more edgy and controversial. The student made this using clip art and then added text in MS Illustrator. This is more complicated than yours will likely be but is a great example of the possibilities.
The following slide is an ad for Gamedate.com, an online dating service for sports fans. This could serve as a billboard, print ad or movie theatre ad among other uses. Just modify the layout to fit the medium.
