MAIN BODY

money for promotion in a per view payment system. There are a lot of brands that look for
different promotional channels in order to find and reach to maximum customers. The people
rarely pay attention on the bulk of ads on televisions and social media and hence, very less

subscriptions, cash and a lot more.

Literature Review
To create a better product (in this case- Advntu) and justify with the abilities of the new
product, a marketing mix is very essential. The four key elements of marketing mix helps a
business to maximize its chances of success in the market and create high recognition of the
product (Thabit and Raewf, 2018). The four P's of the marketing mix are-
 Product- These are the goods and services that solve the problems of the people and
provide them satisfaction by fulfilling their needs (Donndelinger and Ferguson, 2020).
The biggest problem of the millennials of today is that they spend a lot of time on their
phones. This prevents them from other activities and as result, the entire time is wasted
and the energy goes in vain. Some people who desire to have a flexible source of a side
income also find it difficult to adjust with their busy lifestyle.
 Price- The price is one of the biggest factors that influences the customers in making the
decisions regarding buying the product and services. It plays an important role in
deciding the success of the product (Hanaysha, Al Shaikh and Alzoubi, 2021). For
example, if the product is overpriced, less customers will get attracted and if the price is
too low, it may create a feeling that the product or service is of low quality and reduces
the trust. So it is important to study the audience and their reactions towards this kind of
products in the past and what influence it had due to the price strategy.
 Place- The place is where the products and services are sold and purchased by the
customers. It is a digital application and the place or the platform where this process will
happen is the internet and distributors of the internet applications. This element of the
marketing mix also considers where the products are advertised and through which
channels (Anjani, Irham and Waluyati, 2018).

 Promotion- It can be defined as the process of reaching to the customers with the right
message and information at the right time. It relates to conducting the sales promotion
and connect with the customers in the most effective way by using influencing words and
message (Donndelinger and Ferguson, 2020). A promotional strategy aims to convey
fruitful presentation in front of the customers and show them the need of the service and
the reasons that how it will solve their problems or bring advantages in their life.
E- marketing
It is also called as the internet marketing strategy as it is the process of planning,
executing, distributing and promoting the product through computerized network such as internet
and world wide web. It provides the customers more convenience and helps the companies to
reduce the operational cost especially in the marketing function (Obeidat, 2021). Some of the
common E- marketing strategies are- Search engine optimization- It helps to reach the target
audience and beat the competitors in search results.
Website design- the app/ website design is one of the most crucial part of the marketing
plan as it is the home of the brand where all the activity will happen. The company should make
sure that the design of the app is exactly as it is being mentioned in the promotions. The moment
it breaks the customer expectation, it may result in the downfall. Hence, making right design and
satisfactory services will automatically increase customer count and shares on the internet.
M- marketing
Mobile marketing refers to the marketing through mobile devices (Tong, Luo and Xu,
2020). For example- short messaging services. It also includes marketing activities that regularly
requires mobile device. The difference between internet marketing and mobile marketing is that
the internet marketing is general marketing that targets many people at a time whereas mobile
marketing targets individual user.
Analysis and Discussion
This application can be used by anyone and does not require any purchasing or deposit
amount. It is a platform where the brands and the customers can interact with each other in a
completely unique way. This is a more interesting way of advertisement that was never adopted
before. It will create a new channel of advertisements for the brands and may result in more
effective advertisement practices.

The purpose of designing Advntu application is to create a source of income for the
individual. Individual can earn money just by watching small videos, the target of designing the
product is focusing on the millennials. Most of the people skip the advertisement video every
time in daily life. Thus, creating application helps to the both the company's who want to
advertise and to the person who wants to earn money. The application generates the
advertisement fee from the companies to advertise the product and pays it to the persons earning
money (Minami and et.al., 2018).
This application will become an addiction for the students, freelancers, housewife and
many peoples which can earn a lot of money in their free time. People working in an office can
also earn money in its free time by just watching 2-3 minutes video. The application has the
options to redeem money in cash or can redeem by purchasing subscriptions for the applications
(Minami and et.al., 2018). If the correct market segmentation has done then the company can be
valued more than one billion in the few years. Applications have many advertisement videos to
watch so people can earn lot of money without limitation. The videos are repetitive, means an
individual can watch one advertisement video several times as it wants to watch.
There are a lot of applications that force the users to watch ads in order to get access to a
particular song or video. This is because that ad is an essential inclusion with the video. The
difference that Advntu will make is that it will make the ads as the first preference and main
activity that the user want to look at. The other apps advertise brands for content whereas this
app is with the soul purpose to advertise ads for contents. It completely reverse the process. For
example- when the person watches certain number of ads, it may unlock access to movies and
videos or cash bonuses that will be used on other applications as well. Its feature of letting small
brands to upload advertisements on the basis of payments benefits smaller companies and
products to find a platform to promote their product.
