Item (what you are discussing)
Actions (ideas that were discussed with final decisions highlighted in yellow)
Nicki
Molly suggested that it would be a good idea to aim one of our adverts at homosexuals, any age, any gender because homosexuals consider Nicki as a role model, as she is open minded, and the content of her music appeals to this audience.
Lucy added that homosexuals usually like people with confidence, which Nicki has a lot of.

 
Firdowsa thinks that Molly’s idea is a valid point, as she gave a detailed analysis as to why we should aim one of our adverts at homosexuals.
 
Taamilia doesn’t agree with the homosexual advert because it could come across as offensive, because they might feel that having a separate advert for them would separate them from everyone else.
 
Lucy understands why Taamilia feels like this so she suggested that we could have another advert aimed at another advert which is completely different, so that the homosexuals don’t feel as though they are being separated more than anyone else.
 
Meng said she knows who we are advertising, but said she doesn’t seem to understand her music, as Nicki is a rapper, so she talks a bit too fast.
Firdowsa said maybe one of our adverts should be aimed at little girly girls because super bass has a lot of pink, and because Nicki has a wig it is like dress up.
Taamilia said that it is not really appropriate for little children because the clothes she is wearing could be considered very provocative. Instead, we could aim it at young men between the ages of 17 – 21, as they like the sexiness of Nicki.
Molly suggested that Nicki should be advertised in a playboy magazine, as men like playboy, and Nicki would be in underwear, which would be sexy which men like.  
Firdowsa suggested putting Nicki Minaj on the Ellen show, as Ellen is a homosexual, so homosexuals would want to watch it.
Lucy thought that this is a great idea, however, because Ellen Is an American TV show, so instead we could put her on Alan Carr, who is also homosexual, and it is an English TV show. Molly said that since Alan Carr’s show is explicit it is on at 10:00 pm.
Molly suggested that we should put Nicki Minaj in Celebrity magazine because it is a children’s magazine, and as Nicki is known for her pink outfits, dress up clothing, make up and wigs, children will consider her a role model, as they will aspire to be like her.
Lucy noticed that we cannot do a magazine advert for two target audiences, so we decided that for the young male target audience, we can change it to a newspaper picture, in preferably The Sun, because it has page 3 so we already know men buy this newspaper.
However Taamilia pointed out that just before the sports page, there is a double page spread in The Sun that advertises festivals, and music, so that would be a good alternative.
We then realised that we have two print adverts, but we need 1 tv advert, 1 print advert and 1 internet advert. So we decided to put an advert on MTV website, and aim it at teen girls aged 12- 16 instead, because they use the internet a lot and the also like MTV.
Our final decisions which the whole group agreed on, our first advert will be a TV interview aimed at homosexuals, which will be on Alan Carr Chatty Man.
Our second decision is an advert aimed at men aged 17- 21, which will be a newspaper article in The Sun on the page just before the sports page. Molly asked miss Morris if we could call the sun and ask how many men read the sun newspaper every day, but miss said there was a website called think box but that website did not help at all so we decided to research it further on the internet, so far we haven’t found anything.
Our final decision was to put Nicki Minaj on the MTV website, for teenage girls aged 12- 16.  – the internet article will be about, this summer’s upcoming hits & predictions about how well the song will do in the charts
