Written in an engaging manner, Advertising Account Planning helps students understand the job of an account planner in this contemporary moment. From data analytics to building a creative brief, this core text systematically covers the tools and skills needed to be a successful advertising account planner.

"Good fortune is what happens when opportunity meets with planning." These words by Thomas Edison mean as much to advertisers as to inventors. While top brands often seem to spring out of nowhere, it's the account planners working behind-the-scenes who provide the launching pad. A successful advertising campaign takes research, target marketing, concept testing, the right message, and more. Authors Pardun, Barnes, and Broyles (Universities of South Carolina, Kentucky and North Texas, respectively) describe the account planner as the "Voice of the Consumer." It's up to the account planner to "know beyond a doubt that the brand will exactly fill the consumers' known (and unknown) needs and desires." In today's social media-driven communications landscape there are many tools for learning about consumers and to linking to them. Providing strategies for standing out from "ad clutter," the authors explain how to use "paid, owned and earned" media (known as "POEM"), build brand identity, and use research and positioning techniques. Combined together into a cohesive plan, this approach will help to ensure good fortune.
