Rules and regulations of an advert
When you want to promote something using an advert you have
to consider placement, timing and content also you have to consider age
appropriate adverts.
Chose to focus around the brand image and associative
benefits instead of those aligned with consumption.
In the United Kingdom, advertising content regulation is
governed by the Advertising Standards Authority whereas in the UK most forms of
outdoor advertising such as the display of billboards is regulated by the UK
Town and County Planning system. Currently the display of an advertisement
without consent from the Planning Authority is a criminal offence liable to a
fine of £2500 per offence. All of the major outdoor billboard companies in the
UK have convictions of this nature.
The Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations mean
you can’t mislead or harass consumers by, for example:
·
Including false or deceptive messages
· Leaving out important information
· Using aggressive sales techniques
· Leaving out important information
· Using aggressive sales techniques
All marketing and advertising must be:
·
An accurate description of the product or
service
· Legal
· Decent
· Truthful
· Honest
· Socially responsible (not encouraging illegal, unsafe or anti-social behaviour)

purpose for our campayn
The purpose
for our campaign is to get more people to sign up to vote and vote in the next
election. Our target audience are young adults ranging from the age of sixteen
plus who are new to voting or who do not vote because they see no point in
voting or signing up to vote. Our primary target audience are people who are
not native speakers that know limited English and do not understand English
politics. Our secondary audience are teenagers who are new to voting and do not
understand how voting and politics work. The platform we will use is a print
billboard that will be shown on motor ways and near local schools and colleges.
