Why IMC?
Developing Synergy: IMC creates synergy by combining the strengths of different communication channels. When these channels work together seamlessly, they amplify the impact of the message and enhance the
overall effectiveness of marketing campaigns.
Changing Customers: Customer behavior and preferences are constantly evolving, especially in the digital age. IMC allows companies to adapt and respond to these changes more effectively by analyzing customer data
and adjusting communication strategies accordingly.
Changing Technology: Technology is advancing rapidly, and new communication tools and platforms are constantly emerging. IMC enables organizations to stay up-to-date with the latest technology trends and
incorporate them into their marketing strategies.
Changing Media: The media landscape is continually evolving, with shifts in consumer attention from traditional media to digital and social platforms. IMC helps organizations navigate this changing media landscape by
identifying the most relevant channels for their target audience.
