Integrated Marketing Communications is planning in a systematic way to determine the most effective and consistent message for appropriate target audiences. The book shows clearly that this is rarely achieved in organizations where the needs of the brand can become lost in managerial needs to pursue IMC budgets - i.e. the share of the internal pie is more important than the external impact. It demonstrates that IMC is not just the utilization of multiple communications options in a campaign."--BOOK JACKET ER -
