Cotton Inc. weaves unique effort: Reader's Digest using trades to drive readers to consumer campaign
Article Abstract:
Cotton Inc. and 'Reader's Digest' magazine have initiated a multiyear trade advertisement campaign to promote cotton fabrics starting Apr 1997. The campaign will employ the usual 'The Fabric of Our Lives' tagline which has been successful in television campaigns in the 1970s and 1980s. This is the first time that Cotton Inc. will be using print media in its campaigns. One reason for the shift is that print media costs much less than television.

However, most campaigns designed to promote brand awareness fail due to insufficient ad budgets, unrealistic expectations and because they focus on products instead of corporate reputation.
