Statement-I: In developing advertising programme marketing managers must always start by identifying the target market and buyer motives. Statement-II: A company may run multiple ad campaigns at the same time, each emphasizing different aspects of its brand and service.
Both Statements-I and II are correct.
Both statements describe how advertising programmes are planned, and each has to be judged separately.
Statement-I says advertising planning must always start by identifying the target market and buyer motives. Advertising decisions follow the framework of the five Ms (Mission, Money, Message, Media, Measurement), and the mission itself can only be set once the audience and its buying motives are known, so beginning with the target market and buyer motives is correct - Statement-I holds.
Statement-II says a company may run several advertising campaigns at the same time, each stressing a different aspect of its brand and service. In practice large firms do run parallel campaigns - for different products, different messages or different audiences - at once, so this is correct too - Statement-II holds.
Since neither statement is false, both are correct together.
Hence both Statements-I and II are correct.
