Has is got any problem? If yes, how to repair it? How to make it better? The purpose of this thesis is to:  First, give out a systematical approach organizational structure theory;  Second, discover the advertising industry;  Third, apply this theory into practical case of FPT Media – FPT corporation to recommend the best solutions, which will help FPT Media managers have a guide on how to manage organizational structure effectively;  Fourth, identify some

With the first survey (survey A), the author assesses organizational structure in advertising industry and especially in Vietnam market There are about nearly 4.000 advertising companies in Vietnam now As most companies are based in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) – most of big firms and Hanoi, we took the sample of companies in Hanoi and others in HCMC These 17 companies are big firms (in total of 40 biggest advertising firms in Vietnam); they cover most of the adverting market and they provide most of service in adverting industry This sample is typical enough to withdraw conclusions about advertising industry and Vietnam advertising industry The questionnaires are delivered to one or two key persons in each company The survey B is to identify how FPT Media staff think and satisfy with their organization Because FPT Media is a young firm so there are only more than 10 people so author has taken a sample of all of these 10 From this survey, we may LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com found real situation of FPT Media and their real expectation (See appendix E) Data collections methods A lot of data collection methods were considered Because of constraints in terms of time, costs and human resources, a random sample from the whole population of advertising companies could not be obtained in this research Author has approached 17 big advertising companies in Hanoi and HCMC for the survey For survey A, a total of 11 questionnaires were sent via email and questionnaires were sent by post Notice phone calls were made in prior and follow up in total of 11

: add luanvanchat@agmail.com CHAPTER A LITERATURE REVIEW OF THE ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE 1.1 BASIC CHALLENGES OF ORGANIZATIONAL DESIGN If an organization is to remain effective as it changes and grows with its environment, managers must continuously evaluate they way their organizations are design: for example, they way work is divided among people and departments, and the way it controls its human, financial, and physical resources Organization design involves difficult choices about how to control – that is, coordinate organizational tasks and motivate the people who perform them – to maximize an organization’s ability to create value1 1.1.1 Four basic organizational design challenges confronting managers and consultants People in organization take on new tasks as the need arises and it’s very unclear who is responsible for what, and who is supposed to report to whom This makes it difficult to know on whom to call when the need arises and difficult to coordinate people’s activities so they work together as a team As organizations grow, manager must decide how to control and coordinate the activities that are required for the organization to create value The principal design challenge is how to manage differentiation to achieve organization goals Differentiation is the process by which an organization allocates people and Whirlpool, 2002 www.whirlpool.com LUAN VAN

Franklin D Roosevelt reputedly once said, "If I were starting life over again, I am inclined to think that I would go into the advertising business in preference to almost any other The general raising of the standards of modern civilization among all groups of people during the past half century would have been impossible without the spreading of the knowledge of higher standards by means of advertising." Advertising and public relations work has been seen in recent decades as glamorous, and many students of marketing are attracted to these fields in the communications business But advertising work isn't for everyone It's a tough, competitive field that demands dedication and hard work and can involve many pressure-filled days and nights To make it (to succeed), you need more than a degree  You need a sense of creativity, a sense of humor, a sense of curiosity, a sense of adventure  You should have an understanding of people and what motivates them an understanding of the marketplace  You'd better have a lot of enthusiasm and a lot of common sense  You should be willing to work hard and learn constantly  You've got to be intelligent  And most important, you've got to be flexible Advertising isn't a 9-to-5 job, with day-to-day work neatly planned It changes constantly, and you've got to be able to change with it, to adjust to changing deadlines, new directions Most companies make an individual or department responsible for advertising and then hire advertising agencies to produce advertising campaigns Within the client company, the advertising manager typically recommends how much to spend on advertising and defines what the advertising campaign strategy is expected to accomplish Advertising managers work closely with advertising agencies Relatively few people in the field of marketing are employed by advertising agencies Of those who are, many work in smaller cities and towns, doing local or regional ads for small advertising agencies Some are employed by local newspapers 88 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com and TV or radio stations, composing ads for paint stores and dry cleaners Others sell advertising broadcast time or space in newspapers or on billboards Jobs handling advertising for large media users such as Procter & Gamble, the Ford Motor Company, and the U.S government are relatively few, but if you land one you are bound to have an exciting career Within an advertising agency, there are several types of positions The account executive is both the agency's representative to the client and the client's representative at the agency Effective account managers develop a thorough knowledge of the client's business, the consumer, the marketplace, and all aspects of advertising They must communicate information about the client and the client's needs clearly to the agency team, plan effectively to maximize staff time and energy, and present the agency's recommendations to the client It is an advertising account manager's job to make sure the client company gets its money's worth (but at a profitable return for the agency) The creative department of an advertising agency is responsible for developing the ideas, images, and words that make up commercials and ads Copywriters (who write the text of advertisements) and art directors (who are responsible for the visual appearance of ads) play the major roles here In developing an advertisement, these agency personnel must work closely with the account manager and with the media and research departments to find out all they can about the client, the product, the marketing strategy to be used, the production budget, and so on The agency's media department is responsible for developing a plan that answers the question "How can we, at the lowest possible cost, reach the greatest number of people in the target group often enough that they see and remember the advertising message?" Media planners suggest which media can be used most effectively to reach the target audience Media buyers buy space or time for the advertising, negotiating for the best possible price The basic role of an advertising agency's marketing research department is to understand consumer behavior Researchers may investigate secondary information, conduct focus groups or one-on-one interviews, test people's reactions to new advertising copy, track sales volume, or perform other research tasks While most researchers are assigned to specific accounts, some specialize in broad areas of consumer behavior such as consumer trends or lifestyles 89 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Appendix B List of some big advertising agency in Vietnam No Representative Offices Address Ammirati Puris Lintas 23 Phung Khac Hoang street, District 1, HCMC Asatsu -

broadcast all nationwide This is one of biggest competitor in television industry with VTV in the near future 93 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Appendix D Techniques in advertising industry Advertisers use several recognizable techniques in order to better convince the public to buy a product and shape the public's attitude towards their product These may include: Repetition: Some advertisers concentrate on making sure their product is widely recognized To that end, they simply attempt to make the name remembered through repetition Bandwagon: By implying that the product is widely used, advertisers hope to convince potential buyers to "get on the bandwagon." Testimonials: Advertisers often attempt to promote the superior quality of their product through the testimony of ordinary users, experts, or both "Three out of four dentists recommend " This approach often involves an appeal to authority Pressure: By attempting to make people choose quickly and without long consideration, some advertisers hope to make rapid sales: "Buy now, before they're all gone!" Appeal to emotion: Various techniques relating to manipulating emotion are used to get people to buy a product Apart from artistic expression intended to provoke an emotional reaction (which are usually for associative purposes, or to relax or excite the viewer), three common argumentative appeals to emotion in product advertising are wishful thinking, appeal to flattery, and appeal to ridicule Appeals to pity are often used by charitable organizations and appeals to fear are often used in public service messages and products, such as alarm systems or anti-bacterial spray, which claim protection from an outside source Emotional appeals are becoming increasingly popular in the health industry, with large companies like 24 Hour 94 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Fitness becoming increasingly adept at utilizing a potential customers fear to sell memberships; selling not necessarily the actual gym, but the dream of a new body Finally, appeals to spite are often used in advertising aimed at younger demographics Association: Advertisers often attempt to associate their product with desirable imagery to make it seem equally desirable The use of attractive models, a practice known as sex in advertising, picturesque landscapes and other alluring images is common Also used are "buzzwords" with desired associations On a large scale, this is called branding Advertising slogans: These can employ a variety of techniques; even a short phrase can have extremely heavy-handed technique Controversy, as in the Benetton publicity campaign Guerilla advertising: Advertising by association Done in such a way so the target audience does not know that they have been advertised to, but their impression of the product is increased (or decreased) if that is the intent of the advertiser Subliminal messages: It was feared that some advertisements would present hidden messages, for example through brief flashed messages or the soundtrack that would have a hypnotic effect on viewers ('Must buy car Must buy car.') The notion that techniques of hypnosis are used by advertisers is now generally discredited, though subliminal sexual messages are extremely common, ranging from car models with SX prefixes to suggestive positioning of objects in magazine ads and billboards During the 1990s, advertisers have increasingly employed the device of irony Aware that today's media-savvy viewers are familiar with and thus cynical about the traditional methods listed above, advertisers have turned to poking fun at those very 95 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com methods This "wink-wink" approach is intended to tell viewers, "We know that YOU know we're trying to sell you something, so bear with us and let's have fun." The ultimate goal of such advertising is to convey a sense of trust and confidence with viewers, by essentially saying, "We respect your intelligence, and you should respect us because we're not trying to fool you." Common television examples include most beer advertising and the commercials of the Geico insurance company Public service advertising The same advertising techniques used to promote commercial goods and services can be used to inform, educate and motivate the public about non-commercial issues, such as AIDS, political ideology, energy conservation, religious recruitment, and deforestation Advertising, in its non-commercial guise, is a powerful educational tool capable of reaching and motivating large audiences "Advertising justifies its existence when used in the public interest - it is much too powerful a tool to use solely for commercial purposes." - Attributed to Howard Gossage by David Ogilvy Public service advertising, non-commercial advertising, public interest advertising, cause marketing, and social marketing are different terms for (or aspects of) the use of sophisticated advertising and marketing communications techniques (generally associated with commercial enterprise) on behalf of non-commercial, public interest issues and initiatives In the United States, the granting of television and radio licenses by the FCC is contingent upon the station broadcasting a certain amount of public service advertising Public service advertising reached its height during World Wars I and II under the 96 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com direction of several U.S government agencies 97 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Appendix E List of interviewees No Interviewee Position Vu Tieu Ngoc Nguyen Thi To Uyen Managing Director Hoang Thi Thuy Giang Media Manager Pham Thi Dung, MBA Managing Director Tran Thanh Huyen Media Manager Luong Anh Hoa Managing Director Nguyen Thi Hai Yen Company Place Business service Dept TVAD - VTV Creative media Company Hanoi Vietnam Advertising Company Kietuong TV Programming Company TV Plus Company Hanoi Hanoi Programming Manager Sunflower Advertising Company TV Plus Company Tran Duc Thang Media Manager Alicom Adverting Company Hanoi Trinh Van Hao Event & Media Executive VEC Advertising Company Hanoi 10 Nguyen Mai Khanh Client Service Director Hochiminh City 11 Nguyen Thu Thuy Planning Group Head FS Communications Company Mediacom Company 12 Truong Tan Loc Senior Media Planner Maxus Adverting Company Hochiminh City 13 Van Minh Thuong Deputy Director Hanoi 14 Truong Duy Khanh Media Supervisor SonLam trading & service join stock company Dentsu Vietnam Company 15 Nguyen Thi Thanh Thuy Media supervisor Asatsu-DK Vietnam INC Hochiminh City 16 Nguyen Thanh Nghia Senior Media Planner Hochiminh City 17 Tran Tuan Viet Managing Director Chuo Senko (Vietnam) design service company FPT Media 18 Pham Thi Hong Trang Vice Managing Director FPT Media Hochiminh City 19 Luu Thanh Huong Program Coordinator FPT Media Hanoi 20 Pham Xuan Hoa Program Coordinator FPT Media Hanoi 21 Tran Minh Duc Program Coordinator FPT Media Hanoi 22 Tran Kien Program Coordinator FPT Media Hanoi 23 Do Thi Van Ha Media Manager FPT Media Hanoi 24 Nguyen Thi Thu Hien Administrator FPT Media Hanoi 25 Nguyen Kim Chi Media Manager FPT Media Hochiminh City 26 Nguyen Uyen Phuong Media Manager Mindshare Company Hochiminh City 27 Tran Lan Phuong Media Supervisor Mindshare Company Hochiminh City 28 Nguyen Minh Hau Program specialist FPT Media Hanoi 29 Pham Van Ha Program specialist FPT Media Hanoi 30 Pham Thi Mai Hoa Program specialist FPT Media Hanoi Hochiminh City Hochiminh City Hanoi Hanoi Hochiminh City Hochiminh City Hanoi 98 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com 31 Nguyen Le Hai Program specialist FPT Media Hanoi 32 Nguyen Van Khanh Creative specialist FPT Media Hanoi 33 Ho Huong Lan Media booking FPT Media Hanoi 34 Nguyen Hong Phuong Program Coordinator FPT Media Hochiminh City 99 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Appendix F An example of organizational structure in FPT Corporation (FPT Software Company Ltd.) 100 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com .. .vietnam national university, HANOI hanoi school of business Pham Vu Duc Structuring an advertising business in Vietnam (an example of fpt media – the corporation for financing and promoting technology). .. 39 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com 2.2.1.5 Management and Finance Like any other business, an advertising agency must be managed and perform basic operating and administrative... develop an effective media plan The media buyer implements the media plan by purchasing the actual time and space The media department is becoming an increasingly important part of the agency business
