Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If multiple separate advertising channels (print and electronic) are used independently, then each channel can deliver its specific marketing message, but the overall marketing efficiency decreases and costs increase due to lack of integration
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges print media (posters) and electronic media (websites) into a unified advertising system where both channels work together cooperatively. The print poster contains elements that direct users to the electronic component, creating an integrated marketing vehicle that delivers multiple marketing techniques simultaneously across both media types.
Solution Approach 2:
The integrated advertising system performs multiple functions within a single unified structure. It combines brand advertising, sales promotion, customer relationship management, and database marketing capabilities across both print and electronic components, allowing one system to fulfill diverse marketing objectives that previously required separate channels.
2Loss of information
If traditional separate advertising channels are used, then each channel operates independently, but the ability to track and analyze audience interactions across channels is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates database marketing capabilities that track and store information about sales and interactions achieved across both print and electronic channels. This feedback mechanism allows marketers to analyze audience behavior and optimize campaigns based on actual performance data collected from the integrated system.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent combines database marketing and customer relationship management functions into the integrated advertising system, merging data collection and analysis capabilities across both print and electronic channels into a unified tracking framework.
3Productivity
If multiple advertisers use separate advertising vehicles, then each advertiser has full control over their message, but cost efficiency decreases due to inability to share resources
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables multiple advertisers to merge their advertising efforts into a single integrated poster and website system. By combining their marketing messages and resources in one unified vehicle, advertisers achieve cost efficiency through shared production and distribution costs while maintaining their individual brand identities.
Solution Approach 2:
Within the integrated advertising system, each advertiser's message and promotional elements are segmented into distinct components. This allows multiple advertisers to maintain their unique messaging and branding while benefiting from the cost efficiencies of the combined advertising vehicle.
