This exercise is designed to illustrate the numerous and diverse opportunities that companies/brands have to build awareness and brand equity with current and potential consumers by using audience contact points to reach their target market.

Each of these audience/consumer contact points is an opportunity for marketing communications, and to assure that these communications are integrated, thereby presenting a unified and consistent brand image. Audience/ consumer contact points also provide an opportunity to build relationships with relevant audiences – both internal as well as external.
