Short exam answers with examples

Practice question. Distinguish trial and repeat-purchase target audiences. [3 practice marks]

Answer

Trial objectives focus on non-users of the brand and seek first use, either by category newcomers or competing-brand users. Repeat-purchase objectives focus on existing users and seek retention or greater usage. The message and incentive should match the audience’s existing experience.
