Audience theory – Two step flow of communication

This theory was followed up by Paul Lazarfeld in 1948 who recognised that this simple, linear model does not sufficiently represent the relationship between the message sent and the message received. As such, he developed the Two Step Flow Model of Communication which highlighted the idea that media messages are not always just directly ‘injected’ into an audience but also filtered through influential opinion leaders who interpret a message and first and then relay them back to the mass audiences.

Quantitative Data Audience Research 2: Starbucks

The quantitative data from this product is the times that it opens so that people know when the product is available to get.

Another quantitative data research is the cost of the product as it is important to have the knowledge of it as the quantity of the cup is.

Quantitative Data Audience Research 3: My product

The price of the product will be ideal so people would understand the worth of the product and to know exactly how much they would be wasting.

It also depends on the social grade as the higher and intermediate managerial it is the higher chance that you would be earning more if all the facts of the product are truthful.

Understanding selfIt briefly explains the idea of the product and who it targets.It gives a clear gesture on what it is trying to imply as it shows an image of the product that they are trying to advertise.It gives a clear information about the product and how good of a product it can be.
EnjoymentIt is mainly enjoyed by young kids as it has many cartoon characters.It gives a positive note on the enjoyment that it can give you.There will be enjoyment as there will be a catchphrase that will be intriguing for the people.
EscapismIt definitely uses escapism as it doesn’t involve anything natural and its more creative and colourful and very playful.It definitely does not note on escapism as it is more direct to the natural world.It won’t be to much of an escapism advertisement as I don’t want the reality of the product to fade away as Being more realistic could potentially sell more.
Knowledge about the worldThis doesn’t give to much information about the knowledge about the world as it is very much cartoon like.The Starbucks ad suggests how you could enjoy your life with a little bit of Starbucks to help others to also enjoy the taste of Starbucks.This relates to the knoweldge of the world as people could be depending on which products are best to use so therefore people could get acknowledge about these products.
Self confidence, Self esteemThis doesn’t really show to much about self confidence however, it could possibly suggest that kids will gain an impact with the product.Starbucks gives a positive energy so I believe that it could powerup peoples self esteem for the day.This will give a self confidence to people in daily life as shampoo is used on a daily.
Strengthen connections with family and/or friendsThis doesn’t strengthen the connection between family or friends as the advertisement only reaches out to children.This also could be in between as the product shows gaining connections but it doesn’t necessarily mean that it will happen. This doesn’t strength any connection apart from using it in on a daily.
Any other category or themeAs it targets kids, parents could possibly enjoy eating cereal for breakfast.Starbucks influences everyone, so therefore it would be ideal for a product to be made.It will smell really nice and everyone loves strong scents.
