IMC THE BIG PICTURE
Bütünleşik pazarlama iletişimi pazarlamaya farklı bir açı kazandırmaktadır: Pazarlamanın 4P’si de iletişim öğeleri taşımaktadır. Bütünleşik pazarlama iletişimi örgüte genel bir perspektifle yaklaşır, örgütün vizyonu, genel hedef ve amaçlarını tanımlaması vb örgütü ilgilendiren tüm kararlarda merkezine tüketiciyi alır. Örgüt içindeki bütün kararlar tüketici merkezli olmalıdır, dışarıdan içeriye doğru alınmalıdır.
Bütünleşik pazarlama iletişimi örgüte genel bir perspektifle yaklaşır, örgütün vizyonu, genel hedef ve amaçlarını tanımlaması vb örgütü ilgilendiren tüm kararlarda merkezine tüketiciyi alır. Örgüt içindeki bütün kararlar tüketici merkezli olmalıdır. Bütünleşik pazarlama iletişimi yalnızca pazarlama iletişimi unsurlarının değil, örgütsel yapı içinde alınan bütün kararların, örgütün ortak hedef ve amaçlarını gerçekleştirmek üzere stratejik olarak tek elden planlaması ve uygulanması temeline dayalıdır.
Örgüt tarafından/örgütle ilgili bilinçli ya da bilinçsiz üretilen bütün mesajların kontrolü ve ölçümlenmesi: Tüketiciler kurumlardan gelen farklı mesajları tek bir algılama yöntemiyle algılar, tutum-davranış satın alma kararlarını bu algılar çerçevesinde şekillendirirler. Pazarlama iletişimi dışında pazarlama karmasını oluşturan ürün/hizmet, fiyatlandırma, dağıtım kanalıyla ilgili mesajlar farklı kaynaklardan algılanır kurumla ilgili yargıya varılır. Bu farklı kaynakların birbirini tamamlayan/uyumlu/koordineli mesajlar iletmesi tüketicilerin kararlarını olumlu yönde etkilemektedir.
Örgüt içindeki tüm kararlar aynı zamanda hedef kitleler için birer iletişim unsurudur mesaj içerir. Dolayısıyla tüm mesaj unsurları tüketici ile buluşmadan kendi içinde bütünleştirilmelidir.
