Advertising is one of the most famous tools of marketing and therefore it has a lot of importance. The advertising is of many kinds. For example the ads we see on the billboards are different than the ones we see on the television. However all the ads that are printed can be passed off as the print ads. It is extremely important that the print ads be very eye catching and attractive so that the maximum number of effects can be gained from them.

I came across a campaign from Velvet whilst browsing Facebook, a few of my friends like the Velvet’s Campaign for trees page. Upon investigation there is a promotion on their page where you sign up on the online app and you will get a free pack of Velvets Balm Pocket Tissues.

Nice little bit of marketing but of course there is more, you will also be given a coupon for 75p off your next purchase of an 8 x Velvet Balm pocket pack. Lots of little nice incentives to draw consumers into buying the brand. I also took a little look on their website and found this green scheme they have going called Three trees promise. Basically they plant three trees for every one they use up. You can read more about this by clicking here. It is always important these days to a big company to show they care about things other than profit making and green campaigns are always a good way to do this.
