The FatCats building has four levels; an arcade and pizza factory, iRock, iFly, and Flowrider, Gold’s Gym and The Dance Establishment studio.The FatCats Fun Center values their employees greatly, when it come to iRock, iFly, and Flowrider, FatCats could not provide their customers with the experience that they deserve without their great employees. The same goes with Gold’s Gym, they have a large number of professionally trained personal trainers and instructors. They are the ones that help bring in and make frequent customers and members of the gym. OBJECTIVIES OF THE CAMPAIGNWe have made a total of six objectives for our campaign, dividing them into primary and secondary objectives. These objectives will hopefully help bring in a 30 percent revenue increase at the end of this year because FatCats is now going to be targeting a new audience with new special events. Here are our objectives and how we are planning on making them possible.A) Primary ObjectivesCreate more business: We will begin by targeting our new target market, one way of doing this will be creating a better advertising campaign that will make FatCats applicable to them.Increase sales: With our new competitions and specials, we hope to see FatCats bring in more customers, both new and returning. These events will have different target markets, in hopes of helping us reach the goal of a 30 percent revenue increase at the end of the year. Make it more family oriented: FatCats goal is to be able to provide fun, inexpensive activities for families, increasing our popularity in the Ogden area. B) Secondary ObjectivesBetter advertising: Making FatCats more know in the Ogden community, by place local ads on billboards and using “guerilla” advertising, handing out flyers at local events. Book more parties and events: Create fun and cheap party packages, also offering discounts to customers who book parties with us more than once.Find new locations for another FatCats: Look for locations that would be good to open a new FatCats when the time is right.In order to measure the success of our objectives in this campaign, we will mainly look at our sales increase.

The promotional timeframe will be from June through September, 2011. -6921548260Statement of Benefits to the Client/AdvertiserFor this FatCats advertising campaign, we have decided on a budget of $3,967.50. We are going to start advertising FatCats in the Ogden community by having posters, flyers, radio ads, and promotions through the local high schools. We will be using the “guerilla marketing” approch, passing out flyer and coupons at events held in the Ogden area. These posters and flyers will describe and have a picture of all the activities we provide such as iFly, iRock, Thunder Alley, and The Pizza Factory. As for the radio ads, we will have our ad done by professionals from the Ogden area, then from there we will decide what radio stations we want to put our ads on. On average it’s around $100 to place an ad on the radio. We will air our ads on the stations 97.1, 100.7, 92.5, and 93.3, where we have chosen to air them in the morning and afternoons drive time. Due to the fact that they will air during drive time, it will make the ad a little more expensive but we think that it will be worth it, bring in more business by reaching out to target markets.APPENDIX33108901595755center852805FatCats has so many great activities to provide to our customers, all right in the middle of Ogden, Utah! We are one of the only companies to have an indoor rock wall, skydiving and surfing stimulators. -68199011366542716451136651890026111863 ................
