Developing an effective promotions campaign involves using the data collected during the [[Practitioner's Tool / Planning and Promotions / Evidence Gathering|evidence-gathering phase]] to understand the needs, wants and desires of the people you wish to influence, and then developing and delivering messages through a variety of media to target those people. The messages present the “promise” that if someone engages in the behaviors or purchases the product you are promoting, his or her needs, wants and desires will be met. Promotions campaigns can range from very simple and low cost to very expensive and time consuming, and even the latter can fail to achieve the desired goals.
